New Confrontation previews
Rackham have posted several new previews of upcoming miniatures for Confrontation.
Swordsmen
Swordsmen are the blade that the Barhans thrust into their enemy´s side…Or against which enemy troops break like waves. Their two handed sword gives them rare striking power. But still it is nothing compared to their master strike.
Supported by a bard whose spell guarantees they will not fail a roll, they also have access to a war staff. The musician makes them harder to touch and the standard bearer reinforces their determination in combat. If there ought to be only one kind of elite soldiers, it ought to be the swordsmen.
Reapers of Alahan
The reapers of Alahan are young nobles who have developed a combat style on the margin of traditional techniques. Without armor or steed, they have enriched the fencing of swordsmen with the art of gun fighting, integrating pistols into their own way of fighting a war. Dauntless and impertinent, the reapers of Alahan will disobey orders and rush through enemy lines in search of some feat of arms to accomplish. Their survival is as much to do with courage as with stealth and boldness: it isn´t uncommon to see reapers serenely strolling through an enemy encampment, relying on their opponent´s stupefaction and the cheek of their move to avoid combat.
