YOUR SAY WARGAMING
THE CIRCUS IS COMING
WARBAND: KIN OF T Warband Creation My warband is a Viking-inspired, Ostlanders warband; Kin of The Ferret-Beast. The Kin are firmly pro-circus, and are doing all that they can do bring the circus to town. As poor folk, as simple farming folk, they welcome the amazing entertainment and unbelievable feats they hope to see. They are also fond of a healthy street-brawl or two when they can! I have almost only used a Witch Hunter warband, so running Ostlanders felt like a massive jump out of my comfort zone! I liked the themed elements, such as animal affinity, prayers of Taal, and the “Nouveau Riche” special rule. At inception, this warband was made up of the following:
• Warband Leader, Bekan Ferretstomper, Ostland Elder • Stephnir Beastlover, and Gudrod Grindson, Blood Brother & Blood Sister • Plokki Houndsfather, Priest of Taal • 2 Jaegers, Daughters of the Beast • 3 Ruffians, Scoundrels
Drunkards
and
• 2 Kin, Kin of the Beast The idea was to have a little bit of shooting, and close with the enemy to overpower them in combat. Stay together in groups and survive the first few games. I wanted some XP under my belt, grab some warhounds, and be able to close even faster/better with the opponent.
