Blood Wars Minis

[Ryltar]

I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to this set . These miniatures are going to see good use in my campaign [shameless plug](see .sig for details)[/unplug]. The players are currently level 10, but aspiring to reach level 18-20 if they can. We'll see. We'll see.

Gith fighter, renegade, queen and mounted..... Maybe its time for an Astral Invasion...

 

[Kae'Yoss]

Well no, I'd tend to say that *anything* mounted on a dragon isn't exactly common. In my campaign(s) though, I know I'd have a lot more use for the gith on red dragon than a sorceror on black dragon, but your campaign(s) may be (and probably are) different.

Obviously. I'd have to go out of my way to put the gith in, since they don't figure in my story arc at all, and nothing about the Astral does, either.

But the Cult and or the Church of Tiamat will move in soon, and you can always use the Zhent.

 

[Vocenoctum]

Well, they exist, but they're hardly what I'd call common, and they're very FR specific. Even dragonlance doesn't really have mages on dragons - thats what all the brainless knights are for...

Well, you gotta remember how mounted dragonlances worked originally. Your damage = your HP total + your dragon mounts HP total.

So yeah, why put a d4 mage on there?

And regardless of setting, mounted mages on Dragons aren't as common (or as iconic) as gith on red dragons.

Right, Githyanki (not gith, since Githzerai couldn't care less about dragons) have long been tied to Red Dragons. The sorcerer is an isolated "I've made an ally with a dragon" whereas the Githyanki are an archetype. IMO of course.

The third preview is up:

I particularly like the large water elemental.

 

[Gold Roger]

I'm not psyched about that hellcat, but the Elemental and sphere are totally sweet. So far the set shapes up well, but it's really the commons that make or break a set to me.

It would have to be a gnome, it's carrying a hooked hammer, by the looks of it.
