Have you got any experimental rules for this one, yet? =)

Colour me intrigued. A Stegadon proxy presumably? Where's the Slann and what are the ring shapes?

@Andys

No it's a ranged unit, it doesn't need a crew, unless you had spare skinks to add. Basically it's an experimental unit you could make your own rules for.

Engine of the Frogs could be used as a Slann Proxy....  instead of Mr (or Mrs) Froglegs being there in person the knowwhats are in the engine.

Alternate Rules that come to mind......   range extender for the Slann effect or a LOS based artillery piece.

It's the Engine of the Frogs, for the Lizard man army.  The Rings fit inside each other,  with the ball at the center.   I will post pictures of an assembled model once I'm back in the US. 

I made one up because I thought the lizards should have one.  I think it makes a good mount for a character.

If any of you would like one, I am selling them.  Post here if you are interested.

Cheers!

I am interested! I just managed to get hold of some lizardmen, not enough for even a 1000 point army but it would be great to have something like this.

Here's a version of the assembled Engine of the Frogs:



I added the skink to show you the scale of the EoF.  The price of the EoF is $30 USD.  The kit is supplied unassembled and unpainted.

Some Khemri bits, useful for indicating which skeletons were raised up:


The price is $2 USD per Obelisk.

Here are bases to make it easier to base infantry/cavalry units:


The price is $1.50 for 3, or $0.50 each.  I also have the archery base modeled, and I will make a mold of the archery bases over the weekend.

Goblin Pump Wagons:


The price is $7 USD each.

Here are the Greater Daemon Engines:


Painted:


The Greater Daemon Engines are $10 each.

Fire Daemon Heavy Cavalry:


I'm selling the mount and legs only.  You will need to provide the upper torso to put on the mount.  The cost for the mounts is $15 for 12.
