Dwarf Quest Pack

Postby TMU » January 3rd, 2013, 10:59 am

In Barbarian & Elf Quest Packs there are female heroes for both games. In this quest description there are some miniatures, but no female dwarf. Shouldn't there be 'cause it's done like bublished solo quests?! :dwarf:

Well, there never was an official released Dwarf (or Wizard) quest pack, only fan material. So there were also no new official miniatures. If there were, they might have released female versions with the set, but they never did, so there are also no female dwarf and wizard alas.

You can always just use a female dwarf ;) I'm already using a female elf from my D&D boardgame for our party.

There are two theories on the existence of female dwarfs:

1. There is no female dwarf. Period.
2. They have beards making them indistinguishable from male dwarfs.

So, just use a regular HQ Hero dwarf.
For reasons I dare not theorize about, there are by far more dwarf hero minis in circulation than any other hero mini - or better yet, more than all three others combined.

There exists an image from the unreleased dwarf quest pack with a hammer-wielding dwarf. Maybe that was what you would have gotten instead of a female dwarf?

Who knows...

Nobody ever need to paint more than one dwarf... It just doesn't leave much room for customization.
Just see how many converted elves, wizards and barbarians there are out there! Even on this very site! And how many converted dwarfs...?

I tend to believe in Knightkrawler's theory.

There's at least one female dwarf in the Vampire pledge from Reaper's Bones. Definitely gonna use her as a hero.

Argument: hundreds of dwarf hero minis on ebay, much less other hero minis.

Thesis, part I: Female dwarfs look exactly like their male counterparts.

Thesis, part II: In the planned Dwarf expansion there was planned to be a female dwarf mini.
It was made and slipped into circulation prematurely.

there you go...

P.S.: We're lucky they were made by Citadel...
