Wheel Of Time Themed Armies.

An idea I have been toying with and will commence shortly.

Thought I might as well blog it

This will really only make sense to those that have read the wheel of time series.

I am planning on making some small armies from mainly WHFB mini's and maybe some reaper and others as well.


The concept will be for LOTR style rules.

So for example (subject to subtle conversions):

Kislevites = Saldaens.
Wood Elves - Aeil
Bretonnians: Murandians, Andorans, Band of the red hand dark friends etc.
Empire: Cairheinen
Beastmen: Trollocs.

This is just a beginning.

The lovely part of this idea is that unlike some fantasy, the Wheel Of Time world is not all "good vs evil".

What I mean by this is that even though they are both essentially "good" peoples, Andorans and Carheinen are as likely to have a skirmish with each other as with trollocs (probably more likely)!!

Anyway ill keep you posted.

Ill prob work on some Aeil or Band Of The Red Hand first.

Aww of course you take the good ones. What about Seanchan?

I'd enjoy converting the trollocs. Btw Lucys sisters b/f is collecting and paintig some warhammer atm, and I told him we have some spare armies for the end oft he year.

EDIT - Seanchan = Dark Elves for sure!

Ah Bryce is collecting Warhammer and he's going for Wood Elves so I told him about the Aiel. Looks like young Master Cauthon for you!

Ill talk to you more about this but I have sort of moved into a Feist themed background...

I dont plan on doing any one army, but bits and pieces to make it more interesting.

If a few people did a similar approach it could create a good base of mini's.

Ill start a new thread for this.
