Poll: Battle Masters Ogre Champion?

 I was going through my games before moving out to Madison this summer and came across this board game in my family's collection. I remembered playing it a lot as a kid, but only when I looked at it again this summer did I realize that it was a Games-Workshop product.

Happy at my new rediscovery, I decided to bring the game along with me to possibly use the figures in the Ogre army... thanks to this guy:



 The Ogre Champion of Grimorg. And now that I'm cruising for a Bruiser I thought that maybe he would make a good one for the Circus, perhaps as a Strongman or representative "savage" Ogre leading the parade. Some weapon swaps and giving him a banner somehow.

 His size also lends itself well to the role, as even though the models are generally smaller the Champion still stands a little bit above his fellows.

So, what do you all think? Should I use him for my Bruiser or should I shop somewhere else? Polls on the right- go and vote!

He needs a big wad of cotton candy on the end of his stick instead of or just "hiding" his mace, but I say definitely include him.

Many fond memories of battle masters but i havent busted out my copy for ages.

Oh he definitely needs to be in there. I clicked yes with classic look, but I don't think that matters. What is more important is that HE'S in there.

I loved Battle Masters. I had two sets, but it got lost in a move. :(

Sweet! Looks like less conversion work for me!

@Death 0F Angels: yeah, I haven't busted it out any time recently either. Maybe I should try finding some people...

@CounterFett: Sad- I feel for you :(

Chop the spikes off and it could also make a good candy apple. ;-)

I agree cotton candy or candy apple would make an awesome circusy touch!
