So 4H have finally dropped some official pics of the RPG figure they teased at Legionscon. No new info other then confirmation the Kickstarter for it will start late feb.
I will say it kinda sucks that as their "new" budget line these guys will cost almost as much as their original "deluxe" painted figures
>>11628262Basic lore for this wave is the fishmen (and woman) and the crab dude are sailors from foreign lands and the Roman Soldier and Templar are emissaries on a mission to visit those lands for the first time. Dude in fancy robes is rich guy funding fishmen exploration boats, and can be his own troop builder without the robes. Bald dude, imp and Walrus are pirates looking to attack said ship.
I agree a more traditional pirate would be cool to see. They have the parts from the Jacob Marley figure to easily bust out some classic looking pirates, but I feel they may be holding off as to not compete with a friendly company who is also putting out pirates that they actually sculpted the figures for.
The fishmen are cool and all, but I honestly would've loved to see a pirate crew made up of previously used races like Orcs and Goblins or a Skeleton. They would've not only have fit right into the pre-existing lore real easy, but would've also fit into people's collections without issue. As of now, I just got my hands on the fishman Qoi and I have absolutely no idea where he should go. He's just gonna hang out with my snakemen until the rest of his crew lands in about two years.
