The ultimate source for the fimir (fan-made) is the warpstone issue 26. 96 pages of BG, bestiairy and plot for quests.
It's have a strong view point about fimir so it's not for everyone but it's definitly worse a read.

Cheers,

There is definitely a good Fimir Quest Pack waiting to be written.


I did one last year, Fimiroquest! A series of quests to rescue a particular village damsel from a fate worse than death at the hands of a naughty Finmor. Like the mist spell very much :D .

Links for any and all Fimir-related quests and materials would be appreciated during Fimir Appreciation Week! I'll do my best to compile what links y'all post into a single post at the end of the week :fimir:

knightkrawler wrote:The bog trap could also work this way: A hero stuck in the trap must be helped out by another hero (standing next to the trap and taking no action for one turn). When saved, both heroes must step one sqaure away from the trap. Each round spent in the trap means the hero loses 1 BP, 1 MP, 1 BP, and so on. He may not attack, and defend with just 2 combat dice.


I like the idea. I think the trapped hero should have to skip his turn until another hero uses his turn to help him out. If the bog is deeper than the hero is tall then 1 BP loss per turn, starting on his next turn. Not all bog traps are that deep, maybe some are just up to the neck. For the Dwarf, all bog traps are over his head.

Blood Moon Miniatures made some pretty cool "Bog Raiders" - but their site seems wonky these days. Don't know if they are still in business

And let's be fair, the forgeworld OFFICIAL fimirs are pretty cool
Image

And if anyone should want to view the original fimirs (or fimms or whatever)
Image

And finally a really wicked paintjob. Say what you want about the custom sculpt, but you can't deny appreciating the paint!

Some of the Fimir I have painted up over the years including some of the "Bog Raiders", which were nice minis but needed a hell of a lot of cleaning up and assembly

Oh man! that classic skeleton-sprue spike on the shields!!!
No one knows what it's actually for, but everybody has used in some random conversion like this!

Cool paintjobs. The muted greens on the classic fimms are my favorite. It's all good though.

Not keen on the Blood Moons myself, they look too much like crocodiles and the musculature is, well, odd. But if you want some they keep releasing them in sporadic bursts and they sell quickly so just keep tabs on their website.

I also have three of those bog raiders. Never assembled metals before, but I'll have to learn someday. I'm planning on copying the heads and use them on my 5 savage orc bodies, like Mr. Saturday did.
