Welp like 18 thousand others, I decided to go all in on the Bones Kickstarter.
As well as General Miniature RPG use I really want to put together some Armies for Warlord.

I've ordered the Savage North Rules book and am looking to see what factions can be made with the Kickstarter Vampire pledge and some options, with minimal Proxies.

I figure there should be a thread to see what we can come up with.

UPDATE:

I've Edited Greg Botchs' Wonderful Mini's spreadsheet from the kickstarter project and started color coding which mini is assigned to which faction.
I realize nothing has to be finalized but part of my goal is to flesh out the armies with Bones Kickstarter Proxies and try not to overlap so when Painting the Armies they will share a color theme. So for the time being I'm not using any mini's in multiple factions.

http://sdrv.ms/NyjxyX this is the spreadsheet on skydrive..i'll update it as mini's are assigned to army factions.

So the Most obvious one to start with is the Black Orcs of Kargin.

So Heres First attempt, any other ideas for proxy subs please post em.

Next up: Frost Giants of Icingstead

I'm not sure this will be an effective force but a complete Giant and a Wyrm Army sounds cool,
Since we're not getting Frost Giant Spearman or Warrior Bones i'm tempted to simply paint the Firegiants and Storm Giants same as tones as FrostGiant. I personally Can't see using Deathsleet over Beorogg with this group of figures but who knows.

This recent thread might also interest you. Plus I think there was some discussion in the main kickstarter thread, but it's buried in the 200+ pages of chit chat...

[bloodydrake]

ya your right I should have just posted this in that thread..was thinking a separate thread for breaking them down into usable armies would be better..but its not high enough traffic thread to warrant it i guess

[Draftamike]

Really excellent work on these, I appreciate it as a new player who is also a Vampire Pledge.

[Draftamike]

We are getting so close to receiving our bones, cannot wait to get playing with more army types from these proxies!  Thanks again!

[ObsidianCrane]

Here are the 2 lists I've done:
Necropolis: 999 points
This army has 1 metal model required; Elsabeth Briarkiss (14131), though Im sure you could figure out a proxy if you really wanted.
Troop 1
1 Judas Bloodspire, Anointed of Hars (KS) + Magic Weapon
1 Naomi, Mistress of Wings (77027) + Phylactery
1 Bat Swarm (KS)
2 Skeletal Archer (77018 x2 covers whole force)
2 Skeletal Swordman (77017 x2 covers whole force)
2 Skeletal Spearmen (77001×2 covers whole force)
2 Chattel (Proxy: Townsfolk KS Thanks to smokingwrekage on the Reaper forums for the suggestion here)
Troop 2
1 Elsabeth Briarkiss (14131) + Magic Weapon

Army Item - Luck Stone

Kargir 998 Points
Requires 1 metal model; Torg, Tundra Stalker (14602). The duplicate of Troop 3 as Troop 4 is fine, and is done to keep within the Bones paradigm except that 1 metal model.

1 Granak the Butcher (KS)
3 Black Orc Hunter x 3 (KS)
2 Goblin Stinger (77024 x1)

Going a bit more full on with the proxies...

Sisterhood of the Blade

Aside from the Vampire pledge this needs the following extras;
1x 77070 Aviriel, Female Elf, 1x 77033 Callie, Female Rogue, 4 x 77022 Michelle, Human Ranger, 1x 77062 Deenah, Female Barbarian, & 1x 77094 Trista, Female Warrior

(So if you got 2x Vampire you only need the 77022 and you can probably just get 2 and use the Pathfinder Iconic Rogue for the other 2)

Mercs at Heart Doctrine
4 Luck Stones (I think that's legit my Savage North Rulebook is 1000km away atm).

Troop 1
Joeliyn, Leader of the Blade + Magic Weapon & Familiar (77036 Devona, Female Wizard + a familiar)
Isabeau LaRoche, Paladin + Magic Weapon (77079 Isabeau LaRoche, Paladin)
2 Argent Knight (77070 Aviriel, Female Elf)

Troop 2
Callindra Silverspell + Magic Ranged Weapon (77091Nienna, Female Elf Ranger)
Elliwyn Heatherlark, Bard (77044 Elliwyn Heatherlark, Gnome)
1 Bow Sister (77033 Callie, Female Rogue)
1 Blade Warden (77062 Deenah, Female Barbarian)
1 Blade Sister (77094 Trista, Female Warrior)

Troop 3
Kassandra of the Blade + Armour of Courage & Magic Weapon (77035 Deladrin, Female Assassin)
4 Shadow Sister (77022 Michelle, Human Ranger)

Troop 4
Marda of the Blade (89005 Amiri, Iconic Barbarian)
Siellendria, Spell Sister + Familiar (77057 Juliette, Female Sorceress + Familiar)
1 Bladesinger Sister (77131 Finaela, Female Pirate)
1 Blade Sister (77094 Trista, Female Warrior)
1 Bow Sister (77033 Callie, Female Rogue)
1 Blade Warden (77062 Deenah, Female Barbarian)


Note you can shuffle soldiers (the ones with a 1 or 2 at the start of their entry) around between troops as long as the number of soldiers in each troop doesn't change as all are at their minimum. For eg you could swap the Bow Sister in 4 for the Blade Warden in 3 to increase the shooting 3 can do.

It's a legal build.
