Games Workshop Previews Arcadian Leontus for 40k

A miniature figure depicts Arcadian Leontus, a knight in ornate armor atop a rearing armored horse. The knight brandishes a sword aloft, bedecked in golden and silver details. They stand majestically on a rocky base interwoven with gears and mechanical parts, echoing the intricacy of 40k craftsmanship from Games Workshop.

You’d think that “guy in armor, wielding a sword while on horseback” would be a description for an Age of Sigmar model. But no, Lord Commander Solar Arcadian Leontus is a model for 40k. Get a look at him in this preview.

From the article:

The forces of the Astra Militarum are receiving heavy reinforcements – the indomitable Rogal Dorn Tank and its mighty twin-battle cannon, elite Kasrkin operatives, upgraded Sentinels, Shock Troops, and artillery, impetuous Rough Riders, and more. The enemies of the Imperium will learn to fear the Hammer of the Emperor.

There’s one man ultimately in charge of it all, wielding a weapon formed of countless lives and limitless tanks. And yes, he has a horse.

As the Lord Commander Solar, Arcadian Leontus sits among the highest echelons of the Imperium, boasting an unimaginable roll of titles, peerages, ranks, and probably a whole gaggle of attendants tasked solely with ensuring that his horse has enough cyber-hay.
