Harrek the Berserk


Harrek in Gloranthan terms is a superhero; the equivalent of JarEel from the earlier post.  His sentient polar bear-skin cloak is the skin of a god.  I depicted Harrek in the act of bursting through a Lunar Phalanx. 

The mini is Lance and Laser.  He has seen a lot of use; in HoTT terms I used him as a Paladin because of his magic resistance, alongside Prince Argrath and Gunda the Guilty (and supported by 5 Riders and a flyer).  The three hero line up proved very effective and helped me win at Berkeley in'05.

This army is very interesting. I like how you have used the historic miniatures. Very creative!

Hi Doc, there are rarely enough casualty figures on a wargames table, in my view!

Indeed! And while we are on the subject... Check this out:

Another nice way to bring casualties on a table. The idea comes from the Befreiungskriege blog.

That's a really good idea, but why use one mini when you can use 8? ;-) Mounds of bodies, that's what we need!

I hope to be able to fit time in to paint a lot of casualties for this Zama thing, but that'll be the last job and may not get done.
