Draigo - An alternative model?



In the last game of the dying gasp of 5th edition, I took to the field of battle with Draigo and his ChuckNorris-wing Paladins in a mega apocalypse battle, where they tore through their enemies like a hot knife to butter. In this instance I used my Mordrak model as a counts-as Draigo, and I must admit I like the taste of it. I must have. I must have Draigo!

But what to do, when I detest the finecast model absolutely so? I'm not a fan of the pose, the 'look' and feel of the model, and the overly busy aesthetic of the model covered in chains, pennants, seals, writing, etc. I know Draigo has to look suitably impressive for the Eternal Grandmaster of the ass-kickin' Grey Knight chapter, but I prefer my models looking a little bit more graceful.

I've finally got my copy of the new 6th edition rulebook. Will spend the next week or two digesting the rules, re-learning the ropes as one would say.

Warhammer 40k 5th ed. is dead.

Long live 6th!
