Oldenheim – Oldhammer meets Mordheim!

Nick Lund sculpted some Goblins and Hobgoblins for Citadel under his Chronicle range back in 1985… I never liked them as a kid, but now I have taken rather a liking to them. Sadly they are hard to source these days…

Well Chaos has taken over and I’m on a be-arsed to get enough troops done to have an actual army for 2nd Edition WFB (that will also work in 6th which my chums play).

Another human fighter from Citadel joins the Stirland ranks…

Another 1985 C16 Chaos Dwarf – Slayer Maskface – and a 1986 N16 Cave Goblin – Dwarf Fiend – from the Chronicle lines done for Citadel join the warband…

Scarsol Smashskul, from the initial C16 Chaos Dwarf release during 85/86 by the Perry Twins has seen his armour rust up in the 35 years or so waiting to be painted… and is seen here with Blimblam Blimblamblamblom one of the 1987 C12 Goblin Javelinmen… Get the feeling they were running low of naming ideas at that point.

As usual, all from 1983 to 1985…

Straight from 1985 another Giak joind the first three to go raiding…

…and the original rear cover of the box set…

Smelling like a tarts boudoir, the Slaanesh Warband keeps growing little by little in all their perfumed and pastel nastiness…

Been a while but back with another member of the Slaanesh warband, this time one of the Citadel 1988 Chaos Champions;

An old batch of 1983 Armoured Orcs, sculpted by the Perry twins has arrived!

The first champion for the Deathjack warband… Julius – the warbands scout, guide and forager.

C07 Ranger ‘Scout’, 1985 by Alan & Michael Perry.

With the edition of a 1987 Soldier, the Carroburg Warband has reached its starting form with the addition of its second Champion…

Along with this, the ‘Heroes of the Known World’ Moon Duke is now painted up as the Captain of the next warband, one formed from troops of the Deathjacks regiment…

Three more done – the 2nd Youngblood, another Swordsman and another Crossbowman…

Which means not much left to do…

Spent the afternoon sorting through suitable Human and Chaos types… still need to go through the Norse and Greenskins!

Anyway these two lots will get based up ready for painting next year… Still lots left in the boxes too!

The first champion added to the Carroburg Warband for Oldenheim… An Imperial Pistolier released in August 1987 and sculpted by Aly Morrison.

Slowly getting there, the Captain, the first Champion and Youngblood are done, plus one of the Swordsmen and two of the Marksmen!
