The Riverguard Deep reinforcements

Some last additions to my Riverguard Deep Army. Bringing the total to 3000 points here are some giant frog swarms and a fourth Froghemoth!




For swarms I found these "mini-frogs", which turned out to fit the bases perfectly as a giant frog swarm (counting as "Tidal Swarm's").  Cheap chaff units to get in the enemies way and be annoying.  They are not that fast except that they get to jump forward with their 10 inch scout move before turn  one, plus they are Nimble.  They also have ensaring (-1 to hit them if charging from their front) same as all the other Frog units. This makes them slightly more resilient, though opponents will be wounding them on 2+ if they hit.


These are cheap models (about $1 each NZ), but quite good quality sculpts. They are cast in that annoying rubbery plastic which it is hard to trim mold lines off. A sharp craft knife blade does the trick though, and the lines are not that bad in any case.


Here they are with the Riverguard Sentinel for size comparison. Being height one they are easy to see over too and so won't block charges from my Riverguard.


And lastly the new Froghemoth, the mother of all Froghemoths... An even crazier model if that is possible. I don't like it quite as much as the other ones, and it is less poseable compared to them. However, you are allowed four Froghemoths at 3000 points so thought I'd add this huge Momma Froghemoth for big games! :)
