Saga "The Old Worldish"
Day 3, Part 3... Marauding the past.
Onto Goal 2, decide on furrage (which is not a phrase you should enter into google I feel).
As I mentioned in the earlier entry, I really like the GW beastmen aesthetic (not the Minotaurs) but have never played or collected beastmen. So why beastmen?
Well in researching the colours I came across an advert in White Dwarf 129 of the Marauder Miniatures Beastmen Regiment. I was instantly transported back to when I first saw these models as a young chap and how much I liked them and planned to buy them with my pocket money but never did.
These were not the satyrs or fawns of mythology but bestial (strangely) and violent and just awesome. I distinctly remember how cool I thought the leader looked; I still do (for all its bow leggedness).
This then took me down a twisted pathway of reminisces about having the Realms of Chaos books and reading them, half remember some of the stories which I hadn’t thought of for 20 plus years which were about the Beastmen, and I think one about Minotaurs and bray stones. Must dig them out of the loft!
So that’s Goal 2 squared away! This is proving to be a productive lunch break.
Colour Scheme decided!
looking foward to the list, I’ll chip in with my advice when you get there.
