Zulus has always been a favorite for me. But there are also Celts, Mongols, Boxers…and loads of others. Zombies anyone?

What's your favorite horde army? Which one is worth having to paint up all those extra figures?

I love horde armies, my favorite would be the Goblins.

Don't know why, but goblins are just cool.

Green Martians. I do lots of conversions, so I get to play around a little with them and do variations on a theme.

I am starting a WW2 Chinese army and I expect it to be very large. Ill equipped, sketchy chain of command, but there will be a whole Bleeped text pot of them.

ZULUPAUL Supporting Member of TMP24 Mar 2012 1:35 a.m. PST

Zulus, Orcs & Gauls

Redcurrant24 Mar 2012 2:15 a.m. PST

Gauls & Celts

Lots of chariots, lots of cavalry, lots of loose order foot, and now under FOG you can have lots of close order foot – so I now have a further 250 pieces to prepare and paint.

Horse archers, be it Huns, Parthians or in my case Alans

cavcrazy24 Mar 2012 4:07 a.m. PST

I don't know if they would be considered a horde, but my Plains Indians look really great when they all come charging down the hill.

Whatisitgood4atwork24 Mar 2012 4:18 a.m. PST

SST bugs. Okay, I only have 120, but I like to think of them as a horde.

Caliban24 Mar 2012 5:00 a.m. PST

Romans. I don't believe a word of it when they say they are always outnumbered…

Pictors Studio24 Mar 2012 5:11 a.m. PST

My favourite are my 10mm Orcs and goblins for Warmaster.

I have a few others, Lost and the Damned for 40K, Soviets for Flames of War, Zulus and Mahdists.

Lakota! ;)

Paul Y24 Mar 2012 5:34 a.m. PST

Favourite 'Hordes' that I actually own:
Gauls (haven't finished them though)
Cold War Soviets/Warpac (at least a couple of divisions worth in 1/285)
Mongols

Would love to do zombies and SST bugs but would probably have to win Lotto first :P

Cheers
