Okay, the masses have spoken with one mostly confident voice, and they have proclaimed "NURGLE'S ROTTERS" as our 2006 NAF Legacy team.
Here's the 5th Edition list, which I think is probably the one we should shoot for:
Code: Qty Title Cost MA ST AG AV Skills
0-16 Rotters 40,000 5 3 3 8 Decay, Nurgle???s Rot
0-4 Pestigors 80,000 6 3 3 8 Horns, Nurgle???s Rot, Regeneration
0-4 Nurgle Warriors 110,000 4 4 2 9 Disturbing Presence, Foul
Appearance, Nurgle???s Rot,
Regeneration
0-1 Beast of Nurgle 140,000 4 5 1 9 Loner, Disturbing Presence,
Foul Appearance, Mighty
Blow, Nurgle???s Rot, Really
Stupid, Regeneration,
Tentacles
Here is a tentative list of who has mentioned being interested in contributing:
Milo - Rotter (#69)
?? TomB
?? nyarlathotep - Rotter (#13)
?? DiceOrDie
!! antipixi - Pestigor (#83)
!! Stratford
XX Musta Surma
?? Temujin71 - Nurgle Warrior (#71)
<> howlinggriffon - Nurgle Warrior (#27)
!! lauth81 - Pestigor (#81)
!! Stout Youngblood - Pestigor (#666)
<> aerofool - Rotter (#66)
?? Xtreme - Rotter (#11)
!! Spazzfist - Nurgle Warrior (Bilerot Vomitflesh, #1)
?? Paul
?? Mootaz - Pestigor (#6)
<> misanthrope09 - Beast of Nurgle
XX Rune Master - Nurgling Turn/Reroll counters
?? Matt Robson - Rotter
?? KarlLagerBottom - Rotter
?? Tojurub - maybe
XX GalakStarscraper - Nurgle Warrior (with claw, #33)
<> Eggball - Rotter (#3
<> LouisX - Rotter (#10)
Positional Counts:
---------------------
Rotter: 8
Warrior: 4
Pestigor: 4
Beast: 1
That's 20 of us, so easily enough to build a 16 man team and have some support staff. Let's claim some players! I think we should probably restrict ourselves to no more than N+2 of the positional players, where N is the maximum number of that position, since otherwise we won't have enough Rotters. (N+2 gives us a little flexibility so if someone doesn't get done, we still have enough of the positional players, plus giving whomever wins the team the chance to have some variety.)
If we don't have enough Rotters, I'll give the people who finish FIRST a chance to paint another figure for an extra chance to win the team, but only after we've left some time for late entry by new painters.
If you haven't posted here or PM'ed me to claim a player by September 8th, I'll remove your name from the list. (Just to clean it up, not that it can't be added back on later.)
The team should be painted in classic Nurgle colors -- pustulent greens, vomitous browns, ichorous yellows, rusted metal, etc. Player numbers should be painted in red on black backgrounds (to reflect the red/black scheme of the NAF.)
Here's some painting links:
Some Nurgle WHFB minis
A guide to painting Nurgle Warriors, from GW
Some 40k Nurgle painting advice, but some may still be applicable

UPDATE: Please read the following.

Quote: Galak, I was planning to use one of the Rotter minis as my Rotter, and I know at least a couple of people who are doing Nurgle Warriors have specified that they were using WHFB minis, so I think that's already the plan. However, just to confirm:
If you are planning to paint a Nurgle Warrior, do NOT use one of the Rotter figures from the Nurgle's Rotters team miniatures -- they will be used for Rotter figures and would be confusing to have two different positions represented by the same model.
Milo wrote:
Quote: Actually, I'd like the deadline be to get minis painted and postmarked by the end of November. That gives us three months from now to do the painting, and it gives me most of December to assemble the team and ship it to the winner, hopefully so they can have it DURING 2006.
Milo wrote:
Quote: I agree Bilerot should be a Chaos Warrior.
Let's decide on this for color schemes:
We'll do the figures up in nurgle colors, as described in one of the painting guides I posted OR the one howlinggriffon suggested. I like the ease and look of Howlinggriffon's ( http://www.jeanfrancois.org/articles/articles_dgpainting.html ), but not everyone will have the exact paints and washes and inks that guy had, so some variance will be inevitable. Let's try to get something fairly close to the pictures from that article if possible.
Numbers should be painted in red on top of a black background. That can either be a shoulderpad painted black with red lettering, or red lettering on top of black lettering.
Paint the flag of your country somewhere on the base if you can.
Post picture here as soon as possible so that others can see them and try to mimic your colors and style. |

| I'd like to paint a Pestigor or a Rotter. I'd prefer Pestigor, but if we have too many Pestigors, I don't mind painting a Rotter. Number 6. |

I would like to paint a Pestigor or a Nurgle Warrior. I don´t mind the number (since 81 is out of range  ) |

I'd love to do a pestigore. But if you've got too many of those once everyone has chosen then a rotter will do me fine.  |

I'm thinking support staff...nurglings for turn/reroll/score markers...
don't have LRB5 in front of me, but is a Nurgle team allowed an APO and/or a wizard? Those could be interesting as well... |

I'm not on the list yet, but I'd like to join in since this is still nearly the beginning. I'd prefer to do a Rotter, but will paint something else if needed.
Thanks. -RobO |

I've posted information about that. Basically, we're doing Nurgle colors, but I added that team numbers should be painted in NAF colors. Unless anyone has a problem with that? |

Are people going to be using the metal Rotter models as actual Rotters or as Nurgle Warriors? If they're going to be Rotters, then I might try converting this guy into a Nurgle Warrior...
