Excuse me for the delay, it is finally posted for pre-order! :bounce:


Very nice, it will be ordered. :thumright: :thumright: :thumright: :berserk:
But my question still stands: What if I add other avatars to the order, will/can it be dispatched in one delivery? And what about your original plans to release a horde-set with 30 berserkers as well?

Very nice modells. With that impressive picture my order is out.
But it is still correct that I didn´t got any answer-mail with the affirmation until know or did I made a mistake when I ordered it?

I ordered 3 boxes today and I also got no email and also no link to paypal to send the money.

Another Question: Are are there only axes as weapons in this kit? I finished the Gotrek & Felic novel "Shamanslayer", where the slayer snorri used a hammer as weapon and I would like to equip one with such a weapon.

Confirmation emails will be sent from Monday onwards.

There are only axes, many of them, but only axes.

The 30 set was discarded for the berserkers for being normally an "elite" unit in wargames.

Regarding orders with several items, I don't know. i will ask Johanna and post later. For sure, if you email her at info@... she will separate the order if you wish.

Thanks so much for the comments and even more for the pre-orders! :welc:

:bounce: :)

Set details
The box contains twenty 20mm bases , one regiment movement tray, five trooper sprues and one command sprue, allowing to assemble a 20 figures regiment: 17 troopers, a musician, a standard bearer and a champion.

My bests.

This thread might be a hint for some female dark elves. But I am not quite sure if this is a fact or a wish of the forum :think: :

They look good, but I thought I'd deliver some feedback that's been posted on other forums, as it may be of interest when it comes time to sculpt future regiments:

- A few people - myself included - would appreciate it if there were extra heads on the sprues, space permitting. It might allow the creation of distinctly different units, such as by allowing human or elf versions of the same regiment, or it may just allow for more variation and choice within the regiment, in case you don't like one head.

- Some of the axe blades look a bit thick, and the detail on the sides means filing them down isn't practical.

Finally, it might be worth considering a Dwarf Pirate upgrade sprue for a future release. Assuming it wouldn't get you in trouble with GW, a sprue of pistols, cutlasses, heads and hats, along with assorted extras like hooks, parrots and slung weapons might be popular.

YEAH, it's done :applause:

Finally the Berserker are reday tor pre-order, so i orderd 2 Boxes :D

i have also some comments (maybe for the future):

- the idea of a upgrade-sprue for Pirates is amazing :dance: Pirates become in vogue everywhere and i play a Dwarf-Pirate in a pen+papaer rolegame

- some axes are realy a little bold (the pictures look so), some Hammer will be nice to have!

- the beermugs are great, maybe in the next sprues there are more gimmick to use the space in the sprues ;)

- please, make some heavy armored Hammerers next :applause: :applause:

An upgrade sprue, or some metal bits to convert the berserkers into dammaz drengi would be great.

I don't know how you all think this would be possible. There is no way to convert berserkers into hammerers, they would need other legs, other torsos, other heads, arms, weapons and icons. Long story short, you need a whole new set!
And concerning hammers for berserkers, it does not really fit. Berserkers are the dwarven form of killermachines, wielding giant axes in their hands, slashing orcs, trolls and monsters by the dozens. Hammers are weapons for champions or elite warriors.
The pirate thing however is a nice idea, and that could easily achieved with an additional sprue.

The pirate-sprue might be nice, but because of the bare torsos you only could pose them as the basic seaman. I would miss at least a good leader looking more like a first mate/captain with an old worn down uniform and all that typical stuff. When you remind pirates of the caribian you only see a very small number of pirates without any shirts and stuff.
So when you try to put anything in the sprue to achieve a good convertion, you have to put more stuff into it than heads/hats and weapons, but than I agree it would work.
So for me personely if the sprue is made that way it is a nice idea, but nothing I want as soon as possible for the next plastic release

@ Jasko: thats, what i mean, give us a new set, give us Hammerers :viking2:
converting a berserker into an heavy armord elite Hammerer is realy impossible and it will be unnecessary when we get another Set :cheers:

but i think a hammer as Berserkerweapon, first of all a two-hand-hammer, is a great choise. Cause the Berserkers are the dwarven killing maschines, they don't need sharp axes, the slay everything with an big, heavy hammer! But, thats a matter of choice ;)
