Confucius says; people who think special characters are cool have no imagination. GW have at best poor imagination, therefore anything you invent is not only more original, but probably more imaginative as well.
I have to admit he was cool though. And Queen Khalida is an exception, she's too hot to pick on.

Every edition has more and more SCs. The only one I miss is Schaeffer, but he's 40k...
There are loads of funky new SCs, if that's your thing. The Troll King, the Dragon Ogre God, the Skaven worthless one who's a total coward. I'm still holding out on a Cathay Army Book... still waiting.... twenty years later.... hint hint!

They're not funky, they just want one for each division of an army book.
Okay, fine, I'll make you a Cathay book. ;D

I believe there already is a PDF for a fanmade one. Pretty damn cool too.
Also I'd like to note that I've never actually used a SC in WHFB before. I am soooo tempted to use Grimgor. I am also upset how he is no longer Immune to psychology! I mean He's supposed to be fricken' MENTAL! The one mortal who faced down Archeon and not only survived WON!

Doesn't help me and Chem, because we play my remake, don't we Chem? *strokes his cheek while weighting a razorwhip in the other hand*
Yeah, he should be ITP. Grimgor is rather cool, he's a classic by now. I just think they went over the top with him.

Yeah, they're rather cool. I have a soft spot for old classics.
Confucius says; It is human to be be wrong. Sometimes even I am. And that's frakking human.

But they did improve most of the orc army book so I'm not complaining. Also Check up the Cathayan longswords. Those things make choppas look stupid!

They give Ogres +WS and +Ini is all I know about them, and that they're half-magical and supposedly extremely light and always keep a sharp edge. Sounds like a handblade with one or two enchants to me.

Yeah. But pretty much every model in the Chathay army has access to them. Also I recommend taking a browse along the Magic weapons and army list. There are some frickin' sweet ideas. Like the Pheonix or the Ronin.

Not going to give everyone access to magic swords unless I have official fluff for it. I'll do some research. I'll look through the book for ideas, but will base them more on China than Japan, meaning anything called a Ronin is fetdiskad (eh, ruled out. Badly). Will include a lot of war machines, firearms, repeater crossbows and fighting monks. Do you know where the pdf is? I might nick some magic items when I can be bothered to actually make magic items lists for the armybooks.

Hmm, page not found?
Thanks for the effort though.
On the topic, Queen Khalida is hot, did I mention that?

What is this, the Black Dahlia? Heh...
Sorry, I'm only into chicks with a pulse. And her jaw-line's a bit too mannish. And what's she hiding under that skull cod-piece? Scary.

Post by Makarova (M.I.A) on Jan 19, 2010 16:07:59 GMT -5
Could be worse, she could have my jaw. But the codpiece is a but odd, yes. She's still sexy though.

How can you compare yourself to an undead, rotting, corrupted, chaos-worshipping, chaotic evil Khemri Biker Queen from Mars? She looks like Death from Family Guy, wearing a broken venetian mask, with a skull over her groin. Gives a new meaning to the term 'skullf**k'!

I don't compare myself to her, a Khemri biker queen from hell is totally out of my league. ;D
