Arthurian Legends Begin Their Quest On Heroes Infinite [Updated!]
September 1, 2022 by brennon
Raging Heroes is going back to the realm of Fantasy for the month of September. Heroes Infinite will be graced by mighty Arthurian Legends like King Arthur, Lancelot, The Green Knight, The Lady Of The Lake and more.
Arthurian Legends - Heroes Infinite September // Raging Heroes
The set is going to come with a similar breakdown of offerings that we've seen from Heroes Infinite before. You'll have two tiers to choose from with the Leader tier offering up the majority of your miniatures and a few big standout pieces. The Overlord tier will then take things to the next level with more troops, big monstrous creatures and more.
The New Arthurian Legends Miniatures
Here is a neat breakdown of some of the new miniatures coming to the Arthurian Legends collection for September.
King Arthur // Raging Heroes
The big head honcho is for King Arthur who is looking spectacular in his armour and flowing robes. I love that they've gone with that classic Medieval Fantasy vibe for these new Arthurian miniatures with a tweak here and there to make them noticeably Raging Heroes.
Next up, we have the impressive new miniature for Merlin who is Arthur's right hand wizard.
Merlin // Raging Heroes
There is a nice little nudge towards the Pagan routes of Arthurian Legend in his appearance which is nice to see. I like that the miniature is designed in tune with nature and seems incredibly calm as he gets ready to cast some powerful spell.
You also have impressive characters from King Arthur's court including the Mounted Lancelot here on the back of a fairy tale beast.
Mounted Lancelot // Raging Heroes
The pose here is awesome and it's neat to see something very dynamic to include in the front ranks of your army. I think my favourite miniature of the lot though has to be the very cool Green Knight who looks resplendent in his mossy armour.
Mounted Green Knight // Raging Heroes
I like that the armour has been styled to look like wood and you get the sense that this fellow is something Fae and eldritch rather than run-of-the-mill. A perfect leader for a lost and forgotten Bretonnian force perhaps.
Last but not least, we have the impressive Lady Of The Lake who is carrying the enchanted magical blade, Excalibur.
Lady Of The Lake // Raging Heroes
I would love to see someone paint this miniature with almost a "wet effect" as it were and make it feel as if the miniature is coming up out of the water.
If those miniatures have got you interested then you certainly want to check out the two tiers of miniatures you're able to pick up for this month.

So, which miniatures are you going to be printing first?
Do you have a favourite from the Arthurian Legends set that you saw in the trailer?

Those look really good.
Raging Heros !!! You got me Raging what have you done to my Arthurian Boys !!! Some of the models the basic troops are okay. Morgan le Fay is quite nice. But that is not Merlin !!! The only acceptable Merlin is the one played by Nicol Williamson. Clearly raging heros did not watch Excalibur on loop repeated while making these models. Clearly they have been watching some odd ruddy Japanese Anime version of Arthurian tales. How is anyone suppose to use them on a battlefield table with poncy wide open flowing cloaks. What in gods name is king Arthur… Read more »
Welcome to the club,no one can ever replicate that magical film
Just be happy that they’ve chosen not to go with the version of the Arthurian tale from the Fate Stay/Night series….
I’m with you as well. Surprising, given the relative simplicity, design-wise, of the knights in Excalibur, that no one has had a stab at producing them. In the heyday of Pendragon RPG, when Peter Corless had taken it on, I think Gripping Beast, when Colin Patten owned it, were in some tentative, early stage, discussions about producing figures. Alas, it never came to anything.
There’s a discussion with Peter about Pendragon RPG, amongst other things at the link below:

There’s a range soon to be produced by Temple of The West; you can see some previews on their Instagram
Thanks they actually look pretty good. Hopefully they will do some mounted units too.
Nooooooooo more 3D printer stunning goodies to temp folk’s in.
I see much in the way of airbrush work to get even coats of color. There might be some use for speed/contrast on the detailed Green Knight and the gryphons. Interesting as display pieces but I wonder about the use for play
Very nice… but why is Lancelot about to plunge his sword into his own mount’s spine??
These are some really stunning, classical fantasy/historical miniatures! While they’re meant to capture a new take on the Arthurian legend, they really evoke the old Bretonnians.
A bit busy for my taste. The Swordsmen and Archers of the Realm look decent, but everything else looks more “flashy display piece” than “game piece,” which may be what they’re going for.
