    Domaru Butai Knights of Santiago Ariadna Starter Pack Hassassin Lasiq
    Click to enlarge

    From their announcement:

    Ariadna Starter Pack

    The Ariadna Starter Pack is one of our oldest products, and it worth a review.
    -The three new Line Kazaks have the high sculpting quality we demand now, and will form the core of any Ariadnian army.
    -The 4th Chasseurs is a Merovingian regiment operating under Special Operations Command. Its role is to undertake missions of reconnaissance and special actions - Renseignement et Actions Spéciales- in which, in total silence, they penetrate to the very heart of enemy positions.
    The Chasseur is a new Merovingian skirmisher with really interesting weapon options as the Adhesive launcher or Light Flamethrower, that linked to Infiltration and Camouflage special skills, give a new tactical aproach for the Ariadnians.

    -The 3rd Highlanders Grey Rifles is a Scottish Regiment of riflemen that can trace its history back as far as Waterloo. Many say that it’s members have changed little since those days…
    The 3rd Highlander Grey Rifles is a Caledonian heavy infantry with smoke grenades, guys that can run for close combat, but also with interesting long range weapons. The option of twin Light Shotguns is deadly in close quarters, but the new T2 ammunition of their rifle will be the nightmare of any trooper that try to stop them.
