Morglum's Marauders

This week's White Dwarf artwork comes from Issue #110 (February 1989). After a couple of 40k examples, I thought it best to try and address the balance with a fantasy piece by Paul Bonner. The picture is from a piece for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay describing a vicious Green skin band of raiders called Morglum's Marauders. It captures the mayhem of the cut-throats mercilessly swarming the wagon perfectly.

As ever Copyright obviously stays with the original owner (be it Games Workshop or the artist) and I hope that any interested parties will take these posts in the admiring showcase spirit that is intended.

  1. I miss the Marauders; they were a bit epic. Had originally planned to do an army based on them, but eighty Orc Boyz and twelve Wolf Riders turned out to be rather less than inspiring.

  2. Hmmm, one definitely where the fluff exceeds the on table experience. The should be enough character there though to create an interesting Mordheim (or Songs of Blades and Heroes) warband though.
