100% agree with mottdon. They do look good, cool models. But no way I will be adding these to my dwarf army. These are squats in my opinion. They fit in with the stormcast eternal look so go with the aos vibe some where in a high tech fantasy setting. --------A Thunderbarge would be fine for WFB! Not only are there 8th edition rules for it, but in one of the Gotrek and Felix books the Dwarfs had an airship of sorts (Dragonslayer, I believe).

But I doubt that it hadnetal balloons. I'd love to figure out how to convert it so that it looks more like 8th edition.

Not metal but like any zeppelin they housed balloon-like cells inside the main part of the dirigible. So, if you don't outright replace them, you can just put a covering over them for a similar effect.
The diving suits to keep out caustic magic aspect would also fit the idea of Malakai flying his zeppelin into the chaos wastes to find the lost dwarf holds as they'd keep out the corrupting warp dust.

Some of the simpler designed guys actually look quite good and fit for warhammer, but the majority have too much fancy guns. The whole unit probably cost an arm and a leg anyway and I still have a mountain of lead to paint. So a pass then.

Covering the metal balloons might actually be a good idea. I'd probably still want to replace the crew. If I could get my hands on some Dwarf Pirates...

Lol, it's just an idea for me at this point. Plus, I'm not exactly in a financial position to be placing bids at this point. I'll certainly let you know when I'm ready though! (If any are still up for grabs at that point.)

Rick's bid was: "I'll let you play at my fabulous gaming palace". His fabulous gaming palace is like 30 minutes away from my house... And he usually greases me up with Scotch Ale and Food... So, he wins.
