Mordheim: Middenheimers

Mordheim is easily my favorite game in all of GW's properties.  They are one of the few sets where I have a completely painted (and even in most cases varnished and based) armies.




This bad boy is the Middenheimer Mercenary Captain. Generally, he ends up seriously wounded in the first game of the campaign and I end up using a different model with a crossbow and very heavy helmet to represent him.





These are my champions. These are heavily used models. The lad on the right seems to be be missing a hammer. At +1 Strength starting, you really want to get these guys in hand to hand combat. Sadly, my models seem to have a built in arrow attractor.




These are my Youngbloods. Girlie on the right was my first good model. On the tabletop, she looks much better, which is nice because she is pretty much worthless there too.







These some the various henchmen I have made use of over the years.  Telly "Who loves ya Baby!" in the top middle and Karl "Of course I am the Emperor!" in the bottom middle (not wearing his very important helmet) are easy my favorite.



These are my two hired swords: the Tilean Marksman (left) and Duelist (Right).  You may recognize them as Dogs of War characters.  Umm, ya, the unfinished Dogs of War Army.

Always good to see Mordheim warbands and Middenheimers are my favourite of the mercenaries. Must be because of their passing resemblence to the Norscans :)
Your hired swords look great as well. At least you found a good use for some of the minis from the unfinished Dogs of War army! :D
I have a question though, what mini is the youngblood girl?

She is actually the the other official Middenheimer Youngblood from the blister, the only female outside the Sisters of Sigmar faction in the entire range until the release of the Kislevite Ranger (which, as you may guess, is also eternally unfinished at this point too).

Thanks for answeringDidn't realise that, can't say I recognised her at all! I like the Kislevite Ranger mini, it is a good one too :)
