Do you prefer to field them as a separate army, as a faction within a larger coalition, as mercenaries? Or not at all?

I have my Beast Men in tribes which can become units in an army whether all beastmen or mixed with other types as needed.

Black, strong and with a ball-busting attitude … just like … ya can guess the rest ,-)

I like fielding them as a separate army and as a faction within a larger coalition. They were bought with the intention of being a part of a larger army and just sort of got out of control. I guess that is what they do.

Frederick Supporting Member of TMP28 Oct 2017 12:32 p.m. PST

Well, the ones I painted have mostly gone to Santa Moe for Toys for Tots

I see them as part of either another army or mercenaries

Wackmole928 Oct 2017 12:37 p.m. PST

Separate army with demon bosses

nickinsomerset28 Oct 2017 12:46 p.m. PST

Part of a coalition of Chaos!

Tally Ho!

Legbiter28 Oct 2017 1:27 p.m. PST

Lubricated. There's *ALWAYS* time for lubrication, as someone wise once so movingly put it :-)

Leadjunky28 Oct 2017 1:54 p.m. PST

That really just makes no sense.

I paint mine mostly shades of brown with the occasional odd member in the herd. They can be an army of their own race, spawns of evil, or a mad wizard's mutated creations.

@Leg … you dirty b…… :-)

Raynman Supporting Member of TMP28 Oct 2017 6:19 p.m. PST

Medium rare, horse radish on the side!

David Johansen28 Oct 2017 9:31 p.m. PST

I had a pure beastman army, I think it should be an option, so they should have a full roster of character and troop choices but I think they should be available in other lists.

I always found my beastmen to be pretty weak in play. Poor leadership mainly but also bad armor saves.

Sculpted by Bob Olley or Tom Meir or Julie Guthrie of course.

Green Tiger29 Oct 2017 4:29 a.m. PST

Very old school so they form part of a 'chaos' army – though I don't think they have ever actually fought as I don't really do fantasy these days.

Tgunner29 Oct 2017 6:14 a.m. PST

Medium-well with cheese and catsup only????

Personal logo miniMo Supporting Member of TMP29 Oct 2017 8:54 a.m. PST

Whatevs, just put them in the game!

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP29 Oct 2017 2:43 p.m. PST

With lasers …

Da Beastie Boyz!

They could be any of the three options in the OP.

War Drone29 Oct 2017 4:31 p.m. PST

Above Post = Not Beastmen :-)

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP30 Oct 2017 9:02 a.m. PST

They are beasts and men. Beastmen.

Personal logo piper909 Supporting Member of TMP30 Oct 2017 9:11 a.m. PST

Salty, but not too salty. A hint of garlic and olive oil… or maybe mesquite BBQ sauce.

Personal logo piper909 Supporting Member of TMP30 Oct 2017 12:58 p.m. PST

With fries on the side.

Crazyivanov30 Oct 2017 3:05 p.m. PST

Fractious tribes and warbands, often part of larger coalitions under outside force and ideas.

David Johansen30 Oct 2017 9:46 p.m. PST

Model wise I'm eyeing the Ral Partha Fantasy Armies ones and wondering if they'll ever get a full re-release. I know Ral Partha Europe has them but the shipping is a bit high. I'll be needing the Bob Olley Minotaurs from Forlorn Hope as well. I miss my beastmen but I don't miss trying to get them to rank up.
