Back in December I finished my Frostgrave Gnolls and posted them on Facebook. Someone suggested making Cavalry with them and I thought that was a hell of an idea. So I bought a 2nd box of Gnolls from Brigade Games and I found a Warg Rider box in my unpainted LOTR box(really 2 or 3 boxes but lets not go there). So I was set.

Yes Hyenas with Gnolls ticks all the boxes. Fantastic stuff.

Spifty! No problems getting the gnolls to sit right?

Thanks!

@Rich Bliss, I used a Dremel on both the rider and the mount to make them fit down nicely. Just grind away the plastic.

They look truly fearsome! I sometimes wonder if the mount and rider ever try to eat each other….!!!

That's kinda like humans riding gorillas into combat ain't it?

I never liked the look of the Wargs for Middle Earth, but they are perfect here.

Andy, I agree. The Wargs from the Hobbit, are different, more wolf like. The ones from LOTR are more beast like, so I think that really works for the Gnolls.
