WOTC, if you'd like to know some of the figures, that our community desires, this thread may (or may not) help.

Back to the topic now...
1.Ceratopsidae mounted Orc (look it up, you all have access to wiki) 2. Hydra 3. Spartan 300 4. Zulu 5. War Elephants 6. Persian Immortals 7. A Drunken Master 8. Germans 9. Squad of Dragonlings (common but like 200 points) 10. Dreadgulls ... more will come when the alcohol wears off. 11. A shapeshifter with a d20 ability that copies 0-3 of your opponents abilities at the start of the round. 12. Hun archers on horseback 13. Ronin 14. Scottish Bagpiper hero 15. Egyptian necromancer who boosts the undead 16. Gargoyles 17. Chimera 18. Mountain Man... 19. ...with a pet bear 20. special forces ...more will still come *Updated 02April08* Things I've thought of myself and posted in this thread(cont.) 21. Common goblin squad of 5 figs that have a 'goblin movement bonding' (move the figs of any 1 goblin army card first) (Moves as much as 10 figs and attacks with five, albeit weak, attacks.) 22. Goblin Archer squad of 4 23. Goblin Hero, perhaps riding a scorpion 24. Squad of giant scorpions 25. Haitian Hoodoo (voodoo) practitioners 26. Capoeira street fighters 27. U.S. Army guy in a Tank 28. Squad of American Gladiators 29. Saxons and other Barbaric Hoards 30. Phoenix 31. Abominable snowman (not a yeti, something made from snow and ice) 32. Zen (blind) Archers 33. Cactus Monster 34. Carrion Birds 35. Flying Soulborgs 36. A human sized hivelord without a mount. 37. Armoc Warlord (beefier than Mittenz with a range 2 defense aura{we can call him gloves!}) 38. Agent Squad with a defoliant ability (gets rid of trees). Other people's ideas which I support: Aboriginal Americans (Indians) Medieval Longbowmen (Jandar?) Confederate Soldiers Aztec (not Indians) Ents or Treefolk Lizardmen units 1920 Mobster units Amazons Puddings/Oozes/Slimes Alligators Dark or Drow Elves Arabic Warriors from the Crusades French Musketeers Shogun Scarecrow figure Bone Swarm Dragon Hunter Mummy squad Cthulu (some kind of Mind Flayer) Knights of the Crusades Scythian Archers (mounted) Ice Demon Ogres Riot Police Russian Soldiers Mother Spider (gives 'birth' to Fyorlags) Quote:

I would also like to see characters from the bios come to life, like Jotun's brothers or the race of lizard people that donated an arm to Valguard.

I'd like to see a complete round of the Kyries (Ullar, Vydar...)
Keep the Ninjas coming. More monsters (I like the zombies, ghosts, vampires, etc.) Sci-Fi stuff, more agents, cyborgs. Agree with earlier suggestion of Spartans. The outdoors is what happens when I'm going from one place to another. |

2. English longbow for Jandar 3. Mounted Sioux riflemen 4. Orc hero on a Quetzalcoatlus or Pteranodon 5. Zulus 6. Aztec jaguar warriors 7. Mounted Scythian archers 8. Hyskos chariots 9. Dreadgulls 10. Common gladiator squad from Spartacus' rebellion 11. Modern special ops 12. Dwarves 13. Einar war elephant (my preference is southeast asian instead of Carthaginian) 14.

"Roll to take on all the powers of friend or enemy". 9 Egyptian warriors and or Gods. Last but not lest 10 "The thing from Cloverfield" Thank you very much for your time.

Skeletons would be great.
Cowboy & Indians I would be happy with. American civil war I would like even a cannon. I would like to see the Gorrilanators get another unit of close combat perhaps? War elephant is a sweet idea. Pirates suck I wouldn't mind seeing a motorcycle gang, just because its.. I don't know.. just hasn't' been done yet. |

We need more dwarfs. We only have one that I'm aware of and we need more. I would love to see some common squads of dwarfs. Maybe a set of melee, ax wielding warriors, and some range, musket shooting hunters, etc. Dwarfs should have high defense, as they are known for their armor and weapon crafting. Maybe even a unique dwarf hero blacksmith who has some sort of armor/defense boosting aura?
Great trades with Onacara, Gypsy, SirGalahad, elltrain, generalgina, Concord, Just_a_Bill, LongHeroscaper, janus19390, and the very generous obfuscatedhippo. |
