Lizardmen Warhammer
How to start a lizardmen army?
I have looked at the different armies for Warhammer and this one seems the most appropriate, though I could also live with using Dark Elves or the Empire. I have a limited budget and am consequently looking for one of the cheaper, paint-it-yourself starter kits (like Battle for Skull Pass except with Lizardmen). My play would probably be restricted to Warhammer clubs and the like…..how old do you have to be to join, and what is the general cost of membership? Also, how much money would I need to start and maintain an army based on my personal choice (including books on strategy, scenery construction, rules, painting technique, etc.).
PS: I have heard it is cheaper to get an outdated rule book, but would this restrict my playing in tournaments? All help is appreciated.
Welcome to warhammer. Let me be honest with you: This is not a cheap hobby nor a casual hobby. Much time must be spent in painting your models (all models come unassembled and unpainted) and Games Workshop overprices their models to a very VERY large degree.
If you want to play Lizardmen, youre probably best off buying the Lizardmen battalion box along with the Leader of your choice. This will give you a decent sized army upon which to build and will cost anywhere from 100 to 150 dollars just for those sets. You also need to make sure that you have the current codex (you can get away with old codicies but they will be outdated with the current game edition and you will be unable to use the old codex rules in tournament) and the current game-system rulebook. They just came out with a new edition of Warhammer, so if you really want to you can probably pick up an old rule book for cheap but those rules will be outdated.
As for gaming clubs, usually you can just go to your FLGS (Friendly Local Game Shop) and get a pickup game going with people you find there. FLGSs also have staff that will be glad to help you learn the rules and recommend products.

If youre up to playing skaven or elves, they are about to release a box set that comes with a rulebook, dice measuing tools, and two complete armies that sells for 99 bucks. A steal. And that way you can get a friend to split the difference and you two can get started together, and you will have another newbie to play with.

In earlier versions of the setting (up to and including the 3rd edition of Warhammer Fantasy Battle and the 1st edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay) there was a separate Slann army based in Lustria. The background story of the Warhammer world described its creators as the “Old Slann” or “Old Ones” interchangeably. These were the ancestors of the current Slann, froglike creatures who once ruled Lustria in a great empire with an Inca, Aztec and Maya feel, leaving behind a legacy of high-tech/magical items called Power Weapons, made of a mysterious black substance. Forces available to this army as allies or enemies included humanoid pygmies with blowguns and Amazonian warrior-women, as well as lobotomised slave-soldiers. |

Warhammer Fantasy Battle $63 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Warhammer: The Game of Fantasy Battles (formerly Warhammer Fantasy Battle and often abbreviated to Warhammer, WFB or WHFB) is a tabletop wargame created by Games Workshop. It is the origin of the Warhammer Fantasy setting. The game has been designed with regiments of fantasy miniatures. It uses stock fantasy races such as humans (The Empire, Bretonnia, Kislev), Elves (Dark Elves, High Elves, Wood Elves) , Dwarfs, Undead, Orcs and Goblins, Vampires, as well as some more unusual types such as Lizardmen, Skaven and the daemonic forces of Chaos. Each race has its own unique strengths and flaws; Wood Elves, for example, have the most powerful archers in the game but have poor overall defence and Bretonnia have the strongest cavalry but weak infantry. Since first appearing in 1983, Warhammer has been periodically updated and re-released with changes to the gaming system and army lists. The current official version is the eighth edition, released on 10 July 2010. |
