Hi!
Interesting. Perhaps we can make them another race touched by the Slann,
but more technology oriented. I've seen some pictures and they would be
extremely easy to make as an epic army using DSII figs and perhaps some
manga-style mechs for knights and such. Any ideas for epic scale kroots?
While there are some other projects in line, this is something we could
start at some point, although there will be heavy reliance on those with
codex information.
