wild speculation, what would a wargame forum be without it?

[ewestphal]

Somewhere, do not recall where, I read that Saladin would be introduced for the Saracens.  This got me thinking, who else could be included for each faction of equal historic merit/story.  Here's what I came up with:

Saracens: Saladin

Westerners: Richard I: Saladin's major opponent, known as lionheart may have had the courage to chase Saladin to Hell,

Immortals: Genghis Khan, same historical period, described in ancient texts as demonic, certainly barbaric by standards of the time

Lost: A nephilim who rebels? Cthulhu himself, driving the Demons back?  no idea what should go here

Demons: Moloch, the ancient deciever, king of shame, accessible only through child sacrifice or passage through fire.


Again, mere speculation, a rumor based on a rumor based on heresay (heresy?)

Confirmed Coming in Wave 9.1 (so far):

Vincenzo Maculano of Fiorenzuola (Officer) for the Westerners
Li Tsu Tsin (Officer) + lémures Hou-Chi and Chung for the Immortals
Chan lee (Independent) for the Immortals

too bad, reenacting the crusades on the plains of hell using the damned as cannonfodder might have been fun...

I'm hoping Chan Lee looks and fights similar to Bruce Lee.

You can with La Voyageuse 1635!

Dante Alighieri for the Mercs!

King Richard would be a great mini! Do you think he's a bit too medieval to go with the designs of the westerners which are more 18thC (I think).

Dante Alighieri for the Mercs! 

In this line of thinking, I'd like to see Henri LaTour. The chronicler in a lot of the fiction in the book.
