View Full Version : New unit: Hobgoblin shaman (Jan 6th, 2005)
aaglo Jan 06, 2005, 11:27 AM Happy fortnight everyone! :)
Here's a hobgoblin shaman, requested by Drift. And as all shamans do, this one also controls the souls of the deceased :hmm: .
Here are the files:

Smoking mirror Jan 06, 2005, 11:37 AM Top quality! :) I love your warhammer units aaglo, I say your name on the "users on forum" tag and was sure you were about to post another gem! exelent work, I especialy like the "magic" effect, very smoothly done.
Drift Jan 06, 2005, 11:48 AM Cool attack! Thanks a lot, aaglo. :)
Snorken Jan 06, 2005, 12:17 PM Very nice! :) But i thought you had already made this one... or was that a Chaos Dwarf Shaman?
Goldflash Jan 06, 2005, 12:21 PM aalgo... oh Magnicifient one.. any chance you could make an alternate death where his head.. well... Explodes? Would be a PERFECT 'Ead Banga for the 40K mod... I'm.. .not picky...
aaglo Jan 06, 2005, 12:23 PM @Goldflash:
I don't do gore - I'm way too mature for such ... things... ;)
CamJH Jan 06, 2005, 12:23 PM Very cool attack aaglo. :thumbsup:
I'm curious as to what the significance of the effect is. Is he stealing away the soul of his opponents, or just conjuring something from below... or something else entirely? :)
aaglo Jan 06, 2005, 12:26 PM Description of the attack:
The staff he has, holds the sould of the deceased foes. The shaman can use those souls to attack whomever he chooses.
Description of the victory:
After a victorious battle, the shaman collects the soul of the newly deceased to his staff.

Ohhh.... Damn. I'd just like to point out that its not Gore for Gore's Sake... But that sometimes Ork Psykerz brains 'Overload' in combat, causing the Psyker's brain the explode outwards!
But Alright...
Xen Jan 06, 2005, 02:49 PM @aaglo- awesome, awesome, awesome! I liek the fact that you made the attack convient to make this unbit a "necromancer"- that is, a unit witht he enslave ability, that can enslave a conqoured unit to be a skeleton warrior (not strong, but then again, it is for free ;))
EDIT-I for one am quite happy that you, and the other unit creators dont do gore.
whats next on your mighty list?
aaglo Jan 06, 2005, 03:28 PM @Xen:
Next on the list is to go to the city of Tampere to meet my girlfriend. :)
Oh, you mean list of units to do? That would be the Chaos Dwarf Blunderbuss then (and propably some extremely strange units :lol: )
Drift Jan 06, 2005, 04:04 PM You've chosen wisely aaglo, Tampere has all the prettiest (and nicest) girls. ;)
I turned this fellow into a real Necromancer. He has a dark robe and grey skin now. I may use some of your late units a bit differently than I originally thought, that means as far as I'm concerned you're off the hook with the hobgobbo axeman and mystery chaos dwarf I requested. (If you ever planned to do them, that is.) :)

well, i still hold out for a hob-gobbo worker, and a settler- so I can ditch the dwarves entirelly, and have myself a hob-gobbo/mongolian raider and pillager type civlization :)
oh yeah, and bes to fluck on your whole girl friend account- make us all proud, aaglo! ;)
Ekmek Jan 06, 2005, 05:13 PM cool fantasy stuff aaglo. Are you going back to boats again? a modern day gun-boat would be cool (unless someone already did it)

Ha,ha,ha :lol: Xen, sometimes your typo's aproach profanity...
Chaos dwarf blunderbus? Exelent choice!
Xen Jan 06, 2005, 05:28 PM one wonder which typos arnt, and which typos are meant, somtimes ;) but I'm not telling :p
joeskip Jan 06, 2005, 05:36 PM aaglo, your warhammer units are amazing.
how about helping out the lotr fans with some more lotr units.
Please!!
Hrafnkell Jan 06, 2005, 05:40 PM Fantastic unit! Love the attack.
Kinboat Jan 06, 2005, 10:40 PM Very, very cool... But everyone here knows this already :D
Plotinus Jan 06, 2005, 10:51 PM I think this is one of the most original units I've seen, and beautifully executed. If only I had a use for fantasy units. Some of these things are works of art, almost too good for a game!
Gomurr Jan 07, 2005, 12:13 AM Amazing job, as always, aaglo! You always put together fantastic units, and I can't wait to see this Blunderbuss guy you mentioned.
Raw is War? Jan 07, 2005, 06:22 AM Cool! :thumbsup: :D
tjedge1 Jan 07, 2005, 05:37 PM Oh this is awesome! I wasn't planning on this unit ever being made. I needed it, just never requested. Man you're a life saver. You just enhanced my mod as well.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
mrtn Jan 07, 2005, 09:51 PM Ach, aaglo, you're so good it's no fun any more. :p
:smug:
Did anyone say I get pompous when I'm drunk?
aaglo Feb 02, 2005, 02:19 PM aalgo... oh Magnicifient one.. any chance you could make an alternate death where his head.. well... Explodes? Would be a PERFECT 'Ead Banga for the 40K mod... I'm.. .not picky...
Okay, I decide to do the gore death :lol:

Goldflash Feb 02, 2005, 05:19 PM You are AMAZING, aalgo!
tjedge1 Feb 02, 2005, 06:03 PM That is very funny. Nice work aaglo.
Kinboat Feb 02, 2005, 06:59 PM Ewww... :D
Snorken Feb 03, 2005, 03:35 PM I feel sorry for that poor gobbo... :(
