    Question Tomb Kings Giant

    Hi all

    As I understand now GW deleted Giant from Tomb Kings Army book.
    But I still have old metal one (TK version)
    My question is quite simple - can I use this giant as Hierotitan or/and Necrolith Colossus on tournaments?

    It is a Necrolith Colossus, just with a name change. Apparently some people though 'Bone Giant' was silly. Also, it fit more with their statues theme than a giant skeleton to make the Colossus. I'm sure at some point in a future release wave they will put out a kit that makes both.

    "The Bone Giant is a great model to represent a Tomb Kings Necrolith Colossus."

    Taken directly from the Bone Giant blurb on the GW website. Given that is what they are advertising it as themselves, I can't see how any TO can object. As for a hierotitan, I'm not sure, but i don't see why not. Most gamers will be pretty resaonable providing it is clear (using two bone giant models to represent a colossus and a heirotitan is goingto cause confusion!). If you are considering entering a tournament, ask the TO what their rules are regarding 'counts as' models.

    I really want GW to hurry up and build a heirotitan or collossal... tired of the small dudes... Want something menacing...

    I'm in the middle of taking spare bits from my Warsphinx to beef up my metal Bone Giant to a Hierotitan. I don't think any gamer will give you any grief for the swap.
