C3V Special Release: Valkrill's Flagbearer!

Posted October 17th, 2018 at 08:11 AM by truth
DISCLAIMER: This is not official. This is a fan made custom project.

This is where you can go to get started with C3V (Classic Customs Creators of Valhalla).
This thread lists all the units C3V has released: C3V Books of Index.


C3V brings you

Valkrill's Flagbearer!

CREST OF THE VALKYRIE

Gothlok - Valkrill

For the first time since 2007, we have a new installment in the Crest of the Valkyrie series, this time representing the menace and chaos that is Valkrill.

================


Gothlok leads the Death Chasers
NOTE: Gothlok is a double-spaced figure

Gothlok rides onto the battlefield, armed with a formidable sword and the flag of his general. His arrival is enough to turn the tide of a battle, and the terrible blows he strikes are only part of why he is so feared. Look on the forces of Valkrill, ye mighty, and despair.

-------------------------------------------

We have lots more good things coming your way in 2018 and beyond: pirates, tree people, Native Americans, WWI soldiers, undead, and more! Check out the C3V Public Playtesting subforum to help get those to you sooner. If you prefer playing against people, ask kevindola, Kinseth, or superfrog for an online game.

If you want to see an Aquilla Flagbearer, and you see a miniature that looks promising, feel free to suggest it. We'd love to complete the cycle.

Gothlok Rocks!

Thank you C3V

Loving Golthok.
I will try to get him into my army builds for my December Heroscape day.

Now I am really looking forward to the next full release. Any news on that release?

I ask because I always try to use the latest C3V/SoV stuff in the army builds.

I apologize that I do not have time to be a playtester because I typically only play that one day per year, but when I do play I really appreciate the C3V/SoV content.

Damn, that is sweet.
Does he fit on a single base? It looks like he barely fits on the original. Or is he two hexes?

There's a note below the first picture that he should be rebased onto a double base.

Thanks for the kind words, everybody. We're very excited to finally get the Valkrill flagbearer out of the door (Go Team Evil!), and we are super excited about more stuff in the pipeline. More releases to come soon!

PJ Keller, *please* don't apologize for not playtesting. Please just use our units and have fun with them. That's the main thing.

Those of you who have the time and energy, whether it's in person or online, please help us out by playtesting. Reach out to Kevindola or Superfrog to get started. The more testing we get done, the faster we can release units, and there are *always* units in testing.

Thanks again for the kind words, everybody!

There are Nhah Scirh Cultists ?! Shut the F**K up! (I am biased)

PS ah the built in language filter...how quaint. I forgot about that

I told you a long time ago that there were Nhah Scirh Cultists! Go back to wallowing with your cellar-dwelling Colts.

Thanks for checking in on us, old timer!

It's great to see Gothlok officially released! Can we expect to eventually see a tutorial on how to make a flag as nice as the one on the card in his book?

On the topic of an Aquilla Flagbearer, I think that it's a much more difficult prospect. I intermittently look for a fitting Tribesman miniature, but those are even harder to find than cheap dwarves. I'm sure that something will come along eventually, though.

How to make his flag look that nice: use Photoshop!

For real, though, we don't have a tutorial planned. If I was to do it, I'd probably paint the whole flag to that red-brown color, and then use a stencil to paint the rest that off-white. So you'd have to make an appropriately sized Valkrill stencil.
