Unfortunately its been sold allready.

Purple and black paint scheme with black marble style bases Alt & normal Sonnia Samuel hopkins 2 witchling stalkers. Bishop pocket rule book Guild deck Looking for paypal primarily or trades of Legion of Everblight, Cygnar or other Warmachine/ Hordes models.

But since I said I would post other views here they are. Here is a better picture of her face and expression. This was the first model I have done where the eyes actually managed to get colored irises and still look appropriate. Here is a better picture of her hair and the highlighting on the green on the blade. Here is the base, it is painted to resemble black marble with green speckling with a light ivory whitish veining, done to resemble steps. Well..I wont lie and say I am thrilled with my showing. 1 vote out of 252 doesn't exactly do wonders for the confidence.Especially since I am fairly sure it came from me. I didn't expect to win, especially when I saw some of the very good competition out there...But I did expect to do a bit better then what occurred.

Well, a mid range book for an extra 2 50mm flame walls is generally worth it to me. But yes, I agree that the executioner isn't well suitedfor Sonnia. For a melee beatstick I would likely end up going out of guild for Sonnia. CGS,Taelor, Johan.

Ive had Sonnia win a sword fight with Lady Justice before. But like Bigglesworth, I am biased. I would say join the few, the proud, the minions of Sonnia.

only if you don't take the right totem with her Bigglesworth. Governors proxy,Drill Seargent. Though I think using Lucius to slingshot the Executioner might be a very valid way of doing things.

Witchling stalkers...simply because Witch hunters do it till you confess *grins*

The watcher is great. Taking away cover, grabbing objectives,and you can also use it for card cycling till you need it. You wont be disappointed honestly. If you take a pair of them and played your cards right, you could have 4 vp on the last turn. (Breakthrough and stake a claim)

Would make for a great Jack Daw proxy.

Well, Von Schill can kill all the mindless zombies with his pulse. He can then put a bullet into Nicodem or Rafkin. You can use Austringers to pop him from 18 inchs away. Samael or Santiago can blast gigantic holes in his heavy hitters. Fire Wall and a totem that can cast it also will mean that you can put 4 of the 50mm templates down to funnel his forces. If your getting assaulted by hordes of critters, learn easy ways to blow away the hordes all at once. Santiago can either rapid fire a big monster, or do his AE pulse to weaken or kill a bunch of smaller. Samael can rapid fire down anything in a turn, no matter how big it is. 3 5/6/7 shots will put any critter in the ground. Nino can do the blasting apart a gigantic monster or making him burn lots of cards to save them with his headshot trigger. That might actually work rather well. Witchling handler can make your witchlings move really fast and hit hard, plus help with defense also. Von Schill's mobile as hell, can run up and get rid of the counters/ mindless zombies because they still count as corpse counters good or bad. Abuela can make his Flesh Construct attack the other one I believe,unless he is immune to influence. In which case you can make one of your other guys move or shoot more. You could also bring a Freikorp's trapper and then give Rafkin a couple bullets to the face turn 1 and 2 before he can summon anything. Witchling Stalkers are also a good thing, especially if you swarm them on him, since that 6 inch aura can really wreck with his spell summoning. If Rafkin gives models hard to wound then use Sonnia to Violate them. Once you get Sonnia's avatar summoned you should have no trouble blasting through the hordes. And Constructs don't give counters. Are we looking at a 35 point list? Sonnia+Avatar 3 Fire Gamin (mostly for distribution of burning tokens,plus they explode like stalkers and cause tokens for being wounded or wounding.) Pale Rider Nino Watcher You focus on getting Sonnia out quick as possible. so you Inferno both turns, hopefully you will have a tome or two in your hand to cast the flame walls. You use the Watcher to do a stake a claim last turn for an easy 2 points. You use the Dead Rider and nino to blast things apart when they get close to your lines. Make it impossible for him to recover the counters by putting flame walls on them. Also this list will give him almost no counters from your guys, only nino will drop one. And if you keep him the hell back like he is supposed to be you will be fine.

I think that the bearing it should have on a game might be as a tie breaker if the VP ties. And of course if anyone is concerned about their miniatures being painted for a tournament,I do painting to a great tabletop standard for very very affordable prices.

Also spiku, those drawings are amazing and I firmly believe you should keep it up.

Imagine this...how about,instead of Ophelia...we get another clan of inbred backwoods swamprats...err I mean Goblins that come down out of the far reaches of the swamp and encounter humans the way that Ophelia did...except this time its Seamus and his belles terrorizing a border town.(Gremlin voodoo. I think it would fit) Collette and her showgirls practicing for a performance as a distraction for smuggling or stealing something.(Cross dressing goblins and scrap metal mannequins. what more could you ask for?) Hoffman traveling with his machines.(Mecha goblins in scrap boilerplate making steam engine noises) Marcus running with his animals. (AHHH attack of the Were-Pig!) Or for really really scary ideas...Picture the Goblins that get it in their heads to try and imitate the Nephilim. and imagine what happens if they actually succeeded.

This is true Fetid. I think maybe having the twins being rare 1 might be an interesting option. Possibly have a slight change to the dreamers ability "all my friends" make it instead of 1 it is increased to 3 or another number in the under 5 range. As for the Alps...now I hope to see them in the position of board control and activation control. 2 alps running about together causing the wp flip on a negative to recieve slow. I think it far more dangerous now to have the dreamer say...drop a pair of alps and maybe a Teddy or a Lelu on a model or small cluster of models. You activate,get slowed so your options are limited. The change to the Alps actually makes me expect to see them in small numbers in a lot of lists.

I would say go for Sonnia just because she is easily the best Master ever. But go with what you think you will have the most fun with. Though how anyone could think that they would have more fun then dropping fireballs on the entire enemy crew repeatedly, that is beyond me.

If you were facing alot of constructs or terrifying models she most certainly is worth it. If you are wanting a melee model your opponent cannot ignore under any circumstances then yes. Also if you are a fan of bad ass women with hammers big enough their skimpy shirt couldn't cover it completely,then yes.

My only thoughts on it are that its simpler generally to turn your enemies models into witchling stalkers. Besides,why waste the time turning your own resources into stalkers when your enemies models work so very well for it

And while Chompy is certainly a threat to Sonnia,Alps are crispy if they are near her. 2 Flame bursts will kill the Alps,IF you manage to go before the dreamer drops the bomb you can set a flame wall to block off part of the area and use inferno to make the rest of the area unpleasent.

But then I couldn't make my opponent die of shock when Sonnia runs up to Lady Justice and hacks her apart with her sword. That sort of idea makes baby Fire Gamin cry.

And the twins will help you get some comfortability with the spellcasting that Seamus would be using alot of. Lilith is a good master to start with.

simple solution. make neverborn non nightmare models affected by living effects. make spirit and nightmare models affected by undead effects.

I am loving this thread. You are a inspiration to keep plugging away at it. Also..as a fellow mediocre painter that managed to get almost to halfway decent,I recommend asking people lots of questions about how they paint things and it will help. I recommend Dgraz he is an amazing painter and a great mentor.

Dont go for the excorcist unless your going to be fighting ressers. Honestly if I were facing Raspy,I would just put in more stalkers. That or perhaps something with a bit of kick to it,like Santiago or the Pale Rider.

Ok,Im someone that builds their lists ahead of time. Murphy and Bigglesworth can attest that those lists tend to do pretty well no matter what strategy pops up. The key to building a list like that,is to take each model you are going to use,and decide how many general uses it has. For instance : Stalker can do pretty good on manueverability,it is probably #3 on the list for most manueverable. It can also take care of itself in melee and in range,and can help interrupt your opponents spell casting. A good all around peice. Austringer can do board control and area denial. Their ability to do 18 inch attacks that dont require LOS means you hide them,and let them make a part of the board unpleasent for your opponent. Best used to cover areas for recoinoiter and treasure hunt. Also very good for killing daydreams. Santiago Can do alot of things. he can perform very well as a ranged threat. he is tough as hell and makes for an amazing Treasure Carrier.when wounded he can get up into the opponents side of the board pretty easily. He can also do decent board denial,since with two guns even hiding behind cover means he can still cheat his attack. I have found him to be a good substitute for Samael. Basically you want to pick models that can do multiple jobs in a game,and able to do those jobs against most if not all of what your enemy can send at you. You use these to form the core of your lists,about...75 to 80% of your total SS cost,and then fill in the other 20% with models that will be focused on dealing with either your opponents faction or the strategy or scheme you are using or preventing your opponent from completing their strategy. For instance : Watcher to grab a breakthrough or stake a claim. Abuela to do some fun chain activations and obeying models Taelor if your opponent is going melee construct heavy. Sue if your opponent is going to have alot of Obey/Lure models.

I cant say enough good things about the witchling stalkers. They are probably the best 4 pt minion Guild has.Short list for why Hunter Scout Magic Weapon with cb6 Antimagic aura 2 dam pulse when they die. They have a way to help against just about any crew in the game honestly.
