SoBH uses 'warbands' - a collection of models that form your gang. Now, the beauty of these rules is that anything can be used in a warband. Most of our characters are from the Descent game, but a dinosaur or two has slipped in.
But what for Helen? We wanted something different. A neighbor had recently given her a lifetime supply of "Littlest Petshop" toys. With pretty pink skin and giant bambi eyes, you just knew these guys were evil.
Helen picked out 6 pets, and came up with ideas for each one. (Dad coached on one or two). A hunt around for some extra bases, some hot glue, and we were in business. So here they are, the killer petshop boys (and girls):
Top row, left to right:
Husky. Q4 C3 Long move, Big, Savage - the long range terror-striker
Captain Purple Pants. Q3 C2 Leader, Big
Dachshund. Q3 C3 Big, Tailslap (hey, they're long dogs), Lethal (rat things)
Bottom row, right to left (saving best for last)
Fluffy the Flying Puppy. Q3 C3 Big, Flying (big ears like Dumbo...)
Grey Seal Mage. Q4 C2 Big, Magic User
Pink Tutu Hamster. Q3 C 5/2 Shooter (L), Sharpshooter, Poison, Good Shot.
Yes, that is a hamster with a pink machine gun. A pink machine gun that shoots pink poisoned pellets...
So we took them out for a quick spin tonight:
The big memorial in the center is a place of power, anybody in sole possession gets to re-roll one fail. We started from the 4 corners, Helen's pets are across from me. Sara took my good band, Miles his standard, and I took an experimental one that put all the power in one giant. You can just see him at the bottom, berserking his way across the table.
The pets did well, but in the end all warbands fell before the might of Sara. But the pets will ride again...
