Why the change?
Because I feel like sticking to Warhammer models instead of trying to also make due with LotR ones makes sense, especially given the extra dough that would be spent on extra bases, "Warhammer Bitz" and so on. I'd rather save my money by restricting my WH army to WH models and my LotR army to LotR ones, ya know?
How will these new conversion plans go?
Quite simply actually, I have even devised a simple flow-chart, using a "before -----> after" system. Also, the vast majority of appearance changing will be done by molding on Citadel Green Stuff on each troop type
Lords
Captain of the Empire with Great Weapon -----> Caliph
Markus Wulfhart -----> Salah Ad-din
Empire Wizard Lord -----> Grand Vizier
Heroes
Brettonian Damsel -----> Jasime Silverveil
Dark Elf Assassin 2 -----> Hashihins
Dark Elf Assassin with Two Hand Weapons -----> Malik Ibn-La'Ahad
Ogre Kingdoms Araby Maneater -----> Genie
Empire Battle Wizard -----> normal Vizier
Core Units (I will have 10 units of each of these)
Empire Free Company -----> Warriors of Araby
High Elf Archers -----> Bowmen of Araby
Empire Free Company -----> Corsairs
Wood Elf Glade Riders -----> Desert Riders
Special Units (I will have [and am limited to] 3 units of each of these)
High Elf Spearmen -----> Palace Guard
Empire State Troops -----> Janissaries
High Elf Silver Helms -----> Mameluke
Empire Handgunners -----> Nomad Hunters
Empire Huntsmen with large flying base stems and 50mm monster bases -----> Flying Carpet Riders
Empire Free Company (yet again) -----> Naffatun
Rare Units (I will have [and am limited to] 2 units of each of these)
Brettonian Trebuchet -----> Araby Onager
Wood Elf Great Eagle -----> Araby Giant Eagle (Roc)
Sgt. Major Miniatures 28mm Elephant, Screaming Bell Base, Wood Elf Waywatcher trio & some cardboard -----> War Elephant of Araby with standard crew
Conclusion
I have made this decision completely for the better. So I will make assembly a lot easier on myself and I will save a lot that would otherwise be spent on replacement bases.
