Have you seen the repaint (either picture or in person)? | | "Look to God and live." Alma 37:47 Vindicated Champ of Hippogriff (Arcadian Hippogriff) and Uncommon Horse | |

 | | 30 Nov 2007 09:46 PM | | It is reddish orange, similar to the color the Demonweb Swarm is. Unimpressive at best. | | | | |

That's not very good at all. If it wasn't for the difference in colour, they could really be substituted for one another. So, then they go and make a repaint of one to be similar to the other. | | | Over 290 successful online DDM trades. | |

 | | 02 Dec 2007 06:30 PM | | The really annoying thing about the Rot Scarab Swarm promo mini is that you need 4 of the promos to actually use them in your RPG game. Otherwise you just end up with a swarm that has 1/4 of it painted in a different colour to the other 3/4 of it!  Olaf the Stout | | My Trade Thread 12 Trades Completed - Bert the Troll, Keoki, elf_ranger, kalle, Dropbear, twilightraven, SkYlyn3, Monolthicus (x2), qillan_dvra, xuthal, MMT 2007 My Reference Thread | |

An orange/red-ish swarm mini would be a good way to mark which square of the swarm used to have a PC in it  | | | |

 | | 04 Dec 2007 10:33 AM | | Its decisions like this, that have been contributing to the decline of my skirmish participation lately. It doesn't do much to increase my enthusiasm for DDM 2.0 and 4th ed D&D either.
WotC really need to do better to keep us as loyal customers. I say the stores should return the kits and let them know their customers are fed up with it. | | Champion of Champions (for all races! even Gnomes ) Reference Thread Winnipeg Gryphon Cavalry Forums
