(Kickstarter) Rat Storm Rising by Curtis Fell

 Back a lifetime ago, when Sigmar was barely a whisper said by players who knew way too much lore, I wanted to build a certain rat army.  And to be honest, those mid-90's boxed sets were just the pinnacle of eye candy to draw people into the hobby.  Alas, as I researched things, I became more and more despondent, because to build an decent army beyond all the (literal) bells and whistles, I needed decent troop levies that weren't from the $10 plastic boxes.   And "Stormrats" and "Rat Slaves" in pewter purchased two to a pack were prohibitively expensive.  

Thankfully I got some actual play with some figures during the Mordheim years, but they hold a special place in my heart.   

So you can understand the warmth in my heart as I see the Kickstarter for  Rat Storm Rising by Curtis Fell.  Thirteen classically styled rats in 28mm cast in resin, that can be swapped out as you need them. 

I supported two of Curtis' Space Dwarf Kickstarters, and although they're still sitting in the "lead pile" they're exactly what I wanted and at the right price.
