Some of my Beastmen from way back

 Since I have been in a Mordheim mood, I decided to get out my classic Beastman Warband called the Headhunterz.  They were based on the Town Cryer 7 list (not the Empire in Flames one) and I used them back in a GW campaign over 10+ years ago.  They went 35-0 and the Leader, Grimlock, became King of Mordheim and still lives on in infamy.  You see, whenever I spoke with Grimlock, I used the 3rd person voice of Grimlock the Dinobot from Transformers.  Which sort of sounds like the Incredible Hulk.  "Grimlock, SMASH!"  "Grimlock eat puny human!"  "Grimlock hates the pointy ears!" "Grimlock King of Mordheim!" etc.  This voice really pissed off some of the tight wads who played at GW, and there was quite a high bounty on him.  It was a great warband to play and I have a lot of great memories with them.  These were painted a long time ago and about 5 years ago I did retouch and rebase them.

Grimlock is here on the right, with Char on the left.  Grimlock stats were basically maxed out.  He had the Strongman skill along with the BM skill which allowed him to use a 2-H weapon in each hand.  He had large horns on the charge, and that combined with 4 (5 w/frenzy) attacks made him a real beast.  He got Frenzy since he was only taken Out of Action once, and that gave him a Head Wound.  Grimlock was based on Krasak(sp?) the One Eye with a Minotaur right arm.

 I forgot my Shaman's name (hey its been 10+ years). 

 Here are 2 of my Gor heroes.  Skar and Mar.
I think these were my normal Gors
All my heroes lined up like proper little soldiers.
Finally, here are my Ungor fonder.  My minotaur has disappeared into the bitz box.  My main tactic was to use them as disposable meat shields.  I would move my heroes up with 1 or 2 Ungors with spears.  Hiding if my opponent had lots of shooting.  Then I would charge in with all my Ungors to tie up my opponent.  I never cared if they died, then I would charge in with my heroes to clean house.  If someone charged me, my Ungor would jump out and intercept.
 
Thank you for coming down memory lane with me.
