Are you wanting to use the Chaos War Lava men or the Hammer of Thor Fire Demon?

[IAmBatman]

Hammer of Thor Rock Troll, actually. I've got the Hammer of Thor Fire Demon ear marked for my Fire Demon unique squad in this wave.

[IAmBatman]

[A3n]

Looks good to me.

[Hahma]

Looks good, like the Blood Curse

[IAmBatman]

Yeah, I think it'll be a really fun, nasty, fresh feeling power. That mechanic is the main thing driving me to get this design out now.

Also, getting some Demons we can send out in hordes feels overdue.

For the record, there's technically not anything that's specifically a "Blood Demon" in the DCU, but I figured if there's a Brother Blood and a Church of Blood and Trigon has armies of demons, then it's a name that works well as a generic representative of demons, kind of like we did with "Street Thugs" and "5th Precinct Beat Cops" way back when.

Just going by the pictures where there's swarms of them, I'm wondering why you didn't go with a common squad?

I was a tad worried about figure cost and availability, as well as the theme of a one life demon. I'm not firmly against that direction, though, if folks prefer it.

[A3n]

Yeah I think I would prefer a common squad if what you are trying to represent is a minion in Trigon's army.

[Spidey'tilIDie]

Are you open to using different minis? What about these guys and a rock troll? Or maybe this guy?
