Monster smash

original thread ↗

We have a small group of friends who try to get together as often as we can at one anothers house. We came up with the idea of creating our monsters and rules and point values and having a monster fight for a laugh.We put a 500 pt limit on it and we all have to agree to rules and point values too.
My first idea was to convert my giant to ride my stonehorn/thundertusk would have to change some of the rules for the giant though any ideas dont want to make it to hard to kill its supposed to be fun
Second idea was to build gnoblar scrap launcher on back of the giant and have gnoblars climbing all over him
Third idea was to build my screaming bell but instead of the bell have a big cauldron full of body bits and boiling water(yummy stew) and have the giant pushing it could have some gnoblars on it too and maybe even a hero on it
As you can see i will be using my giant because never use him in normal games now cause always dies to quick any ideas or input would be great thanks  :D

Thundertusk Cavalry sounds utterly amazing! DO IT!  :lol:

I like both of the first two ideas :) They'd be awesome! I most especially would love to see your conversions of them :)

After all, painting 100 night goblins is something you do in the morning just before you are off to work.

And I think you missed a 0 when you wrote 11 armies. The correct nr should be 110 armies I would think, based on your painting speed.

Have a Giant riding Two Thundertusks like Jean Claude Van Damme. Split eagle, perfect balance... That'd be a solid build, and a good 500 points :P
33 Gnobs! Over 3 Packs of Trappers! Woot!

You know how greasus the overtyrant has a small unit of gnoblars carrying him? Maybe make Greasus the OverGiant. He sits in a throne with an ogre leg in his hand, large scepter in the other, a big ass crown, with a bunch of ogres carrying him. Points will be giant (200) plus 10 ogres (300). That would be 10 impact hits. 10 stomps + thunderstomp. And 30 attacks!

I like your way of thinking. Came up with another idea maybe build a chariot for my giant and have it pulled by the stonehorn/thundertusk so many to choose from need to think of some rules and stats now and decide which one to do  :D

My mate who plays orcs n goblins is gonna build a massive mangler squig as his monster should look cool i am still undecided what to do with my giant but no rush we giving ourselves 2 months to get it built and painted and   make up the rules and cost.
