Only Beorg Bearstruck, the chieftain, turns fully into a werebear in battle, others have no or minor transformations. For example in Dogs of War 4th edition they had.īeorg Bearstruck and the Bearmen of Ursloīeorg Bearstruck and the Bearmen of Urslo are a Norse mercenary unit. Everything below is from the Table Top game. I take everything from the Table Top Game or the Warhammer RPG. Ditching the Nordic flavor was more about business sense than it was about what would be most interesting in terms of lore or faction flavor. Personally, I'd rather see the classic Norse look or at least a hybrid mixed in with the newer Marauder look. Norse looked more like this at that point: They could get more quirky with the obscure stuff under that business model.
That pretty much rules out the weirder Norse flavored specialty units and meant that having the Norse look exactly like a unit that they had pre-existing models for (marauders) made good business sense.īack in the 80's and 90's, they made a lot more niche metal models that had lower capital costs on the moulds and meant they didn't have to sell such a high volume.
I think a lot comes down to that idea that they'd make the official lists of recent WHFB vintage only contain units that they have miniatures for and they're only going to make plastics for something that they think they can sell en mass. But for a Norscan army think the danes from attila with werewolves and war mammoths. Originally posted by RPPK Viking171986:they do have werewolves and warmammoths but not in 8th edition they are covered in lore a lot.
