Fennblade UA
The Fennblade officer and drummer!
What a great attachment for this unit. The officer grants Cleave (a second attack if the first kills) and he also has a mini feat that gives the unit Pathfinder and +2" on the charge, really getting these guys moving. On their mini feat turn without any external buffs they threat 13" imagine giving them a speed buff from Jarl and watching them charge something that is 15" away. There are not many models that can compete with that kind of threat range. The drummer grants reposition so after you charge their front line that was 13" out and kill a few models then you get to reposition 3" and Jam up their second line or rearrange a little for the counter attack.
I think they are decent I painted them a while ago and I can tell that I am a better painter now but as far as the paint job lets just say I wont be repainting them any time in the near future. Here is a closer picture of the wounded drummer.

Normally the best looking model in a unit is intended to be the Unit Leader or the officer to the unit but I think in my full Fennblade unit with attachment the best looking model goes to this guy.
I don't know if the intent of the model was that this Trollkin lost an eye and since it didn't grow back properly he gets the pleasure of wielding a drum into battle and only wears the head band for style. My thought was that he just took an arrow to the face and a cut to his arm and since he was wounded but did not want to sit the battle out he tears off some of his tabard, binds up his eye and arm and takes the field to help in whatever way he can. Plus who does not love the sound of a cow skin drum!
