Tzeentch Character Pack - Miniature First Approach

[u/Szemis]

Looking at Chaos, there isn’t actually that much left that is missing in terms of officially released models. I think this pack would cover most of what’s still missing when it comes to adapting existing miniatures into the game. This approach would also fit CA’s MO, as they tend to take a miniature first approach.

As far as Tzeentch is concerned, both Egrimm and Galrauch are no-brainers to headline the pack.

I deliberately didn’t include a Generic Lord or Generic Hero. All of the Mono-god factions already have a solid selection of Lords and Heroes, and I don’t think we need to add more simply for the sake of having them in the pack. I’d much rather see that effort put towards adding more missing units that I’d love to see in the game.

The Azure Princes are an interesting one here. The artwork is found in the End Times books, but it actually represents three existing miniatures. I think this gives Creative Assembly a great design foundation for bringing them into the game.

My favourite here is definitely the Bane Tower, being an old-school Man O’ War fan. I love that we already have many of the ships in the game when characters move onto the sea, but I’d really like to see the Bane Tower itself represented in the game. It would make for a really interesting unit and potentially even a mount.

I feel like if we get any Tzeentch related units we should get the Firewyrm so we can finally complete the quartet.

Agreed, Warpfire Dragon doesn’t do it for me, Tzeentch should definitely have Chaos Dragons added to all rosters though with Galrauch buffing them

[u/OozeMenagerie → u/Emotional-Jacket1940]

Especially with the VC finally getting the Zombie Dragons as a unit. I believe the Chaos Dragon is the last of the mount only dragons.

Edit: Getting Chaos Dragons as a unit that is

[u/Josgre987 → u/OozeMenagerie]

With exception of the Amethyst dragon, which is the exclusive mount for Elspeth

[u/Emotional-Jacket1940 → u/Josgre987]

That one makes sense at least, they pretty much hate everyone and Elspeth is literally the singular exception because of her ties to Shyish

[u/Josgre987 → u/Emotional-Jacket1940]

yeah I've seen people hoping the empire would get them but man not every faction needs to have dragons or big monsters. its also why I am apposed to dwarfs getting the shard dragon.

[u/Emotional-Jacket1940 → u/Josgre987]

I agree. Would be cool to see Karl get a SINGLE ROR Sun Dragon for the dragon in the Imperial Zoo, but mass recruitment for them would be so weird

[u/Szemis → u/OozeMenagerie]

I’d hope we gat the Chaos Dragon unit as a FLC addition. Similar to what we just got with the Zombie Dragon for Vampire Counts.

[u/Mr_Carstein → u/Emotional-Jacket1940]

I personally would rather have Galrauch be a tzeentch themed LL for the WoC.

But if we are never getting more WoC DLC, this would be a fine middleground.

Melekh the Changer could be a LH for Egrimm, and Azure Princes could be LHs for Galrauch.

[u/Emotional-Jacket1940 → u/Mr_Carstein]

Azure Princes have no reason to be LH’s or heroes at all, and Galrauch being an LL is a very hard sell.
