Warrior Monks Guard Their Temple In Warlord’s Test Of Honour
March 28, 2018 by brennon
Warlord Games is expanding on their Test Of Honour range with some awesome looking Warrior Monks for Sohei that guard their temples with a zealous fury.
You are able to look to their webstore and get your hands on these Warrior Monks that you see here. The set can be broken down into those using Naginata and others using those classic Japanese Bows.
The finish on these miniatures is awesome and the overall look of the models for Test Of Honour (I think) stands head and shoulders above a lot of what has been done by Warlord before.
I'm very tempted to get involved with this game as it not only carries through a narrative element, packed with great looking models but also is a nice point of difference from other games out there. It's not the typical European Fantasy/Historical I've been involved in before and the mechanics are nice and simple to learn.
These Warrior Monks can also be picked up as part of the Temple Gate Defence Set.
You can get your hands on the terrain that you see above and the miniatures, bringing things together to create a very evocative scenario. You could see these Monks watching from the upper floors as the enemy approaches, weapons at the ready.
Will you be able to deal with the assault of a cadre of angry and resolute Ninjas?
Have you played a lot of Test Of Honour?

Those are excellent. Test of honor has been on my radar of late. The $50 starter box is super-tempting.
Oh wow, they look awesome! Some really nice metals coming out for this game and these Sohei are looking the absolute bees knees. Naginata are overlooked weapons at times as not many factions use them, but they pack one hell of a punch. Samurai can use them too and unlike bows, you don’t have to pay the 2 extra points – well worth it. Sohei, absolutely fantastic. NAMU AMIDA BUTSU!!
Looking pretty neat.
Then again at closer inspection I hope the blotchy forms (faces etc.) are results of the paint job not the sculpt.
paint job I think, trying to get the shaved head look. I’d be too lazy to even try haha
Yeah, hopefully.
BTW, I mean the actual faces. In these pics with the thick paint layer, hard edges and strong contrast painting style I can’t make out the forms of the sculpt. Seems as if they could even be on a flat surface. 😉
Those are some really nice looking minis.
Those are beeeeeeeeeeautiful.
nice figures.
Great addition to a great range
