Fantasy Friday - GLWL Prep

A minotaur gorebull shows down some Empire men Source

In preparation for the GLWL I've been painting models as well as planning out my initial 1500 points. Rhellion gave us a great noobler guide and I made a painting oath to have finished by inauguration day.

With the GLWL you have a fixed list of 1500 points that you must bring to every game. This makes it so you know a little about the opponent you'll face. They can see the magic items that you're bringing and any unit options.

I wasn't too worried about the enemy knowing about my level four and my general and the shard. These are pretty much Beastman must-haves. The minotaurs are definitely a point-sink but I like to use them.

This leaves me open to take more casters, a BSB of my choice, etc. I plan on playing 2500 points as the standard.

I also painted my Gorebull BSB that was purchased from Mierce Miniatures. I love their Beastmen models and can't get enough. I really enjoyed painting this guy as he's pretty dynamic and ready to fight. It looks like a little static grass got on his axe so I'll have to fix that.

He's about 299 points kitted out with what I want to give him. He'll be in the unit of minotaurs so he can look out sir. Now I have the option of using him or the regular wargor BSB.
