They have lots of neat infantry, knights, cannons, and steam tanks! Plus, I already had a couple of things from many, many years ago. Namely, a Great Cannon and the War Wagon. Now, the cannon lost its crew somewhere along the way, so I had to buy two of them off eBay. But the War Wagon is complete. Just needs to be reassembled and repainted. The old paint job leaves a LOT to be desired. But then, that was 18 years ago.
So, this week, I have ordered:
- 2x crewmen for the cannon
- 8x knightly orders (plastic box set)
- 1x Burning Sun Grandmaster
- 1x Burning Sun Standard Bearer
- 1x Reiksguard Hero (mounted)
- 1x Light Wizard
- 1x Acolyte
- 17 x Halberdiers (plastic)
- 18x Swordsmen (plastic)
- 9x Handgunners (plastic)
- 1x Engineer
- 3x Reiksguard (foot) - a command set
- 6x Knights of White Wolf
- 1x Mounted Warrior Priest of Ulric

Ahh, the Empire. That's my preferred army for Mordheim, although I like the green skins too.
I started converting some models to do an army of Cathay but only did a couple of character models. Maybe someday...
My biggest problem with GW is that they change the rules every 5 years or so.
That game (new rules and figures every 5 years or so) was what drove me away from GW in the first place. Well, plus changing over to historicals (sorta).
Well, do keep in mind that if you are not going for the Warhammer hardliner angle here you can push a lot of historical figs into duty in those Old World armies. Why buy 'spensive GW Empire troopse when some historical floppy-hatted soldiers work just as well.
For good information and strategy on the Empire, listen to show#1 at TheHammerCast.com. I like this blog btw=)
