Beastmen Battalion

[Herald of Nurgle]

Doesn't seem to be one, aye?

For their initial force, Nick and Duncan drew up a 1000-point army list. They based this around the battalion box set and so made sure to include a 20-strong unit of Gors, 10 Ungors and 10 Bestigors in the army.
Hmm. £70 of stuff? Mneh. Probably £55 or £60.

Its too bad it doesn't have minotaurs, and instead has the insanely priced, and sub-par Bestigors. Which is the main reason why I will not be purchasing said Battalion.

[Chaosgerbil]

That's dumb... I want to get those minotaurs just for how cool they are.

Are we looking at the same minotaurs? The steroid pumped uber cows that are $15 each for a plastic model? The beasts line is the worst line GW has put out in a wihle.

There is no beastmen battalion on the GW website does one exist?

[Herald of Nurgle]

The Battalion does not currently exist, however it was mentioned last week in one of the Beastmen 'constructing an army' articles. Therefore we know the contents but not the date!

Seems to be a big fail by GW.

The beastmen list is an embarassment. The fluff is awful. The rare choices are thrown together and slipshod. There is not one playable special character. The "lore of the wild" is not competetive with other army specific lores. In general, this list shows very little imagination and less effort.

It's also mentioned in the Feb WD, no price listed though. It has $115.50 worth of models in it, so I'd expect it to be $90, maybe $95.

thinking of adding some beastmen to my guard army either as a blob or a unit of conscripts, I have some spare catachan arms which would work better gors or ungors?

The minotaurs look okay imo, but they would look awesome if they had just toned down the number of muscles. Nevermind the steroid look (I honestly like it that way, they're supposed to be huge and muscular), they have grown muscles that don't exist (yeah yeah, fantasy and all that) and seems to serve no purpose :)

I have to totally disagree with you the Minotaurs are suppose to be steroid pumped with CHAOS baby Chaos! The Bestigors are Great and the Bitz are Potential Laden.

I actually love the live compared to old Models just not sure why they did not do plastic centigors
