New Confrontation previews
Rackham have posted two new sets of photos of upcoming Confrontation miniatures.
Sardar Tillius (photo 1 and photo 2)
Sardar Tillius is an excellent commander and a skilled fighter. He can slay his enemies in hand to hand combat just as well as let a storm of rituals loose on them, all the while leading his army with intelligence.
If he is not accompanied by one or two warrior mages, he will still provide the support of a powerful Incarnate to his troops, which he can further reinforce with one or two rituals such as Haste to facilitate the advance of his troops or Storm of Light to strike down his enemies. However, when his unit includes a couple of warrior mages to help him with his rituals, Sardar unleashes all his might. The most expensive rituals are then accessible and he casts them with terrifying ease. When he is accompanied by 7, his lucky companion, Sardar becomes the ideal ally, since he can use rituals picked from any Army Book.
Lion Ballista (photo)
The ballista of Alahan constitutes the best piece of artillery that could ever be built without resorting to gun powder, steam or naphta power. The ballistae are famous for the quality of their crewmen, who are true artillery artists: the speed and the accuracy they display as they load and aim ballistae leaves a good many archers speechless.
