I know that the quality and details is unequalled, but there are some other beautiful miniatures out there that could easily be used for Confrontation as well. Therefore, we could collect suggestions in this thread. A friend of mine once created an AP-calculator based on all the cards published and with this useful tool we were able to create new cards that were balanced to the others. I'll ask him if he still has it.

Feel free to ad your suggestions, I'll post some more later as well.

Griffyns of Akkylanie

Malifaux: The Guild's Judgement

The Judge would be a good Hunter of Darkness, while Lady Justice could be a female assassin. With a bit of work on the Death Marshal's heads, they could be Hunters of Darkness, to, or, even better since the weapon fits, Seneshals of Hod.

Malifaux: The Torch and the Blade

The Witchling stalkers could be some Thallions, and the other two Character models.

Malifaux: Guild Riflemen

Well, that's obvious.

Malifaux: Lone Marshall

As Thallion Rider.

Malifaux: Desperate Mercs

Darkness Hunters.

Malifaux: Hans

A Fusilier Character

Malifaux: Monks of Low River

Look a lot like the Fusiliers, but as Quarterstaffers.

Spherewars: Shadows and Executioners

Again, for the Lodge of Hod or Assassins

Spherewars: Ovreuc

Warmachine: Eiryss

A female assassin, maybe as well for Cadwallon.

CMON: Griffin

Well, obvious.

Goblins

Malifaux: The Kin

A bit of Western charme, but as well imaginable in the streets of Klûne.

Malifaux: Merris

The answer to the Aegis of Tir-Na-Bor.

Malifaux: Pigapult

Someone in need of warmachines?

Figone: Nagrot Crook eye and Blagrut crazy eye (Guild of harmony)

A magician and a Klûne militiamen.

Freebooter: Captain Ulgat

Some more pirate goblins!

Freeboter: Momma Galina

Freebooter: Goblin Hasardeur & Velero # 2

Freebooter: Goblin Sailor & Velero # 1

Freebooter: Mobby Dugg

Freebooter: Momma Cebada

Freebooter: Cucaracha

Freebooter: Hueso Narg

Figone: Azetohn

Rider without a rat

Bushido: Tra-Peng

Uraken magician or priest

Bushido: Uk-Kang

Dai-Bakemono, but I'm not sure with the size.

Acheron

Malifaux: Mindless Zombies

Yeah, well, the title is enough.

Malifaux: Toshiro

Maybe a Zombie character?

Malifaux: Canine Remains

Zombie Dogs! Cerberus' little brothers!

Alchemists of Dirz

Malifaux: Salvage & Logistics

Leveticus would be a fine character or biopsist.

Cadwallon

Malifaux: Shadow of Redchapel

They fit the setting for sure.

Malifaux: The open Grave

Mortimer would be a good Gravedigger, and Nicodem as well.

Figone: Undertaker (Black Forest)

Drunes

Figone: Kaanyl-Tyr and Nebulen (Black Forest)

Lanyfh

Figone: Grokronar (Ammon)

Karnagh

Sessair

Figone: Kira (Black Forest)

Fianna

Elementals

Malifaux: Nekima

As Succubus.

Malifaux: Nephilim

Maybe as Moloch and the little ones as Satyrs.

Malifaux: Whiskey Golem

Maybe for the Knox Battletank for Cadwallon, or for the Dwarves.

I like the entire premise
especially since noone at Legacy/CMON is working except for the lawyers?!?!?!?!?!?!?

the newsletters from librevent also are running with the same idea
many of their new profiles are using miniatures made by other companies, Mierce is one of their favorites

The newsletter from librevent gave me the idea for this thread.

As most of this post is from Valiant, I'll give you the link as well.

Lions of Alahan

Valiant: Hawk Silverblade

A falconer

Drunes

Valiant: Keirana

Karnagh

Daikinee

Valiant: T'Sharo

Not the typical woodelf creature, and therefore maybe something for the Daikinee, although the bug-thing is missing.

Raging Heroes: Tree Warriors

Some more tree creatures that look quite furious.

Studio McVey: Ar-Finiel

Good luck with this beauty, it's hard to get. But a very nice character.

Cynwäll

Valiant: Chrys

The pose and the dragon is very cynwäll to me.

Kelts

Valiant: Kevin the Red and Tachum Tenkiller

Fury Warriors for the Sessair

Valiant: Ivan

Drune Persecutor

Devourer

Valiant: Ses Dragonschilde

A female Huntsman - or Huntswoman?

Akkyshan

Valiant: Cicarserie

A spider monster

Cadwallon

Valiant: Waldorf Gnome Gadgeteer

Dwarven Wrecker or builder.

Other

Valiant: Portal to Hell

This could be used as scenery or a Nexus.

They are really cool, and they fit the design to the existing miniatures!

According from a post on the Dakka Dakka Forum you can order via his blog and the adress:

lambosimon ( at ) gmail.com

EDIT: Some of his work can also be purchased via Mierce Miniatures, like some of the following ones:

Drunes

Jowan of Carn Dhu with Drune Hounds:

Ckaarakk

Drune Minotaur

Domnech

Druid/Shaman

Kernuor

Mage/Priest

Axes of Carn Maen

Persecutor Unit

Bows of Carn Dinas

Heck, they even matches the veiled faces of the Drune Archers!

Sessair

Aldhelm

Musician

Ophidians

Issithil

Mneriiss

Ufhilloss

Iimithi

Svrill

Vilthiss

Myrinna

Reaper has some pretty nice miniatures that would fit Aarklash, too. But I don't know if they fit the scale, because most of them are about 25mm scale and I think they are smaller than Rackham's.

Wolfen

Takhi

Hunter

Luta

Lonewolf

Akkyshan

Isiri Arachnid Archers

Spider Centaur

He has pointed elven ears

Shaerileth

Arachno Assassins

undead fighters for the Spider Elves

Labella DeMornay

Maybe some mage

Just have a look at their site, it's way too much to list it here. In my opinion the hands are often a bit too big, and this looks goofy, but some of the spider creatures really work for me.

Like already said in the Clan box thread, I really delved into the Akkyshans, and I've found some really cool models for them.

Probably the best ones are reserved for the Clan.

The Aarklash Wiki tells the following about the army:
• at the top there are the powerful witches and priestesses
• they are guarded by the orb weavers (half elf, half spider) or the venom wariorresses
• semiferal creatures, such as barghests and giant insects
• disposable soldiers and slaves who will willingly sacrifice themselves for the godess

Therefore, the lower ranks should have Possessed, similar to the Ophidian slaves, and either Martyr or Devotion.

But now to the suggested miniatures.

Puppetswar:

Barghests
They even have numerous eyes, so it has a certain spiderlike style.

Giant Spider
There will be some spiders here...

Insectoid Warriors
Now these are really interesting and show how the priestesses deform living creatures into the shape they want them to have.

Arachnoid Prime
Maybe even some sort of creature character?

Arachnoids
And some more of those beauties.

Insectopods
A cruel mix between beetles, spiders and snakes. And many more...

Raging Heroes:

Blood Vestals command group
Either for the Venom Warrioresses or the lower ranks.

Blood Vestals unit and Skaryaa, the Blood Mistress as a character.

Preying Manits unit
Definitely for the higher and more deformed ranks.

Hordes: Legion of Everblight
There are some models that fit quite nicely into the Akkyshan style.

Lylyth 1, Lylyth 2 and Lylyth 3 for a high priestess or warrioress character.

Raptors and Annyss Ryvaal as Cavalry with a character.

Nyss Shepherd and Beast Mistress, and Fyanna for the numerous beasts.

Strider Rangers, Strider Blightblades, and Strider Deathstalker as units and character for the lower ranks.

Nyss Hex Hunters and Bayal as another low rank unit with character.

Swordsmen, Archers, and Acolytes for more support.

Ebobminiatures has a nice Spider, as well as Heresy Miniatures.

Reaper:

Javolith for the higher guard.
The Isiri range both for characters and soldiers, but to be honest, I don't like them much, the ears are to big and they don't fit that good like the others. But at least there are some more deformed warriors or spiderlike ("drider") elves.
Dhalea, Selthyiel, Depora, Shaeress, Zalash and Ghoul Queen as characters.

Hound of Tindalos and many Spiders as creatures.

Hi there,

I'm searching for alternative minis for the Dirz Pest of Flesh (Fleischpest). Any ideas, cheap and easy to get would be nice, too. For some reason are the original Pest of Flesh from Rackham are sold very very expensive like 30+ € for 3 of these little guys.

As an alternative for the Uren's Son of the Dwarves of Tir Na Bor, I would propose this. It's a dwarvian wet dream a beer elemental, sry I mean a whiskey elemental.

http://giveusyourmoneypleasethankyou-wyrd.com/products/whiskey-golem

Whiskey Golem Exampleshoplink, the range is in 32mm 'heroic' scale that's why I guess he is bigger like the monster size of 32mm scale, 35$ per piece so he is a bit expensive, Material is plastic

As an alternative for Fenggar, Fist of Bronze (Dwarfs of Tir Na Bor). I would use this and exchange the goblin "rider" on top with my Fenggar Iron Hand.

Lucky Emissary, the range is in 32mm 'heroic' scale that's why I guess he is bigger like the monster size of 32mm scale, 40$ per piece so he is a bit expensive and will be releases during August 2016, Material could be plastic

Also Wyrd has some very cool looking lamps to offer

5x Lamps pack Exampleshoplink, the range is in 32mm 'heroic' scale, 15$ for five Lamps, Material is plastic

Could somebody give me ideas how tall Wyrd Miniatures are, esp. the monster ones?

I used two Malifaux miniatures as proxys for the Akkyshan elves, and they are a bit too big for the Confrontation bases, so I had to trick a bit around.

How did you manage to have spare Rackham bases? Or is there a manufacturer that does bases that are like the Rackham ones?

You could buy them regularly, they came in blisters like the regular models. If I remember correctly, it was 10 infantry bases, 10 cavalry bases, 3 creature bases and 3 big creature bases per blister. I had some luck and found a store where they still had some of them, but I bought them all.

There are still some in a canadian shop: Boardgames.ca, but unfortunately large creature and cavalry only...
Be careful not to mix them up with the round bases from the plastic edition!
