Goreshade the Bastard & Deathwalker – Warcaster & Character Solo

$24.99

The abomination called Goreshade the Bastard was once known by a different name. Only decades ago, Ghyrrshyld ruled one of the most powerful houses of Ios. He was obsessed with the decline of his race, so he decided to take on the difficult responsibility of forcing the Iosans to confront their doom rather than hide from it. He immersed himself in monstrous experiments and dark rituals in search of Ios’ salvation, but his actions horrified his people and plunged his nation into civil war. Now an outcast, Goreshade serves Cryx in an alliance of convenience to further his research into the dark arts.

Goreshade the Bastard & Deathwalker come in a blister (PIP 34088). A player may field one Goreshade the Bastard & Deathwalker in a Cryx army.

Contains:

1 Goreshade the Bastard
1 Deathwalker

3 color stat cards

WM:Khd Demolisher/Devastator/Spriggan

$ 34.99 SRP

Behind its plates of steel, the Devastator is all but unassailable, yet it can open its armored shell to unleash a rain of deadly shrapnel from its grenade launchers. The Devastator’s success has led to the development of other ’jacks based on this chassis. The Demolisher features armor equal to that of the Devastator, but when its plated arms open they reveal cannons that can deliver powerful ordnance even in the thick of combat. The Spriggan trades the armored arms of its predecessor for a heavy shield, a massive lance, and more versatile and longer-range grenade launchers that can fire either explosive projectiles or flares that illuminate hidden enemies. This box set contains three color stat cards and one multi-part heavy warjack plastic model (PIP 33073). Included are all the components to assemble one of three heavy warjack variants: Demolisher, Devastator, or Spriggan. A player may field any number of these heavy warjacks in a Khador army. SPECIAL NOTE: PIP 33073 contains the same Mk II stat cards as PIP 33026 and PIP 33039 as well as one completely new stat card for the Demolisher. The model in this box represents the same figures as PIP 33026 or PIP 33039 in the game. However, the model in PIP 33073 is a new sculpt and therefore looks different from the model found in PIP 33026 and PIP 33039. In addition, this model is plastic rather than metal. PIP 33026 and PIP 33039 will no longer be available from Privateer Press beginning October 1, 2012.

Cryx Kraken Colossal

$ 124.99 SRP

Kraken—Cryx Colossal (resin and white metal) The Kraken ranks among the most terrifying necromechanikal fabrications ever loosed upon the mortals of the Iron Kingdoms. With surprising agility for its size, a Kraken can quickly maneuver to take advantage of any situation on the battlefield. As it rises from the depths, its hellblaster cannon delivers devastating payloads supported by bursts from its flayer cannon to cut down infantry. The Kraken’s long tendrils erupt like steel serpents in the midst of formations, tearing apart warjacks and grasping victims to fuel its vile hunger. The Kraken colossal comes in a box (PIP 34050) and includes a colossal wreck marker. A player may field up to two Krakens for each warcaster in a Cryx army.

Figure Forge The Protectorate of Menoth Harbinger

Figure Forge, Warmachine Comments Off

Nov 292011

In this episode of Figure Forge Matt assembles the Harbinger from Privateer Press. It is not the easiest model to assemble. But, if you follow these step and spread them out over the course of a couple of days it will go much smoother than it did for me. You model will also go together in better time than mine did. All in all I am happy with the end result.
