Demon Hunters & Demons Manifest For Dungeon Saga
August 22, 2014 by brennon
Mantic Games are skirting the edge of the abyss with another hero and possibly another villain making the half a million mark of Dungeon Saga that little more enticing afterwards I reckon. Arianya, Naiad Demonhunter is the reward for hitting $475k...
The first character to look at is Arianya the Demonhunter who brings yet another race and faction to the world of Dungeon Saga and Kings of War. the Naiads have not been looked into before but they make up the underwater part of the Elemental army and are deadly and vicious to anyone that cross them. Armed with that deadly trident and wrist mounted crossbow she's quite the deadly foe. She even has a few grenade-like tricks up her sleeve.
As a portent of evil this is the other announcement that popped up yesterday from Mantic. This nasty looking demon might either be a hero who looked a little too deeply into the realm of the abyss or it's something deadly that dragged itself up from the fires to fight your mighty heroes. I think this could well be another set of scenarios perhaps? Well $500k will help you solve an entirely new set of scenarios based on these Abyssals!
Not bad looking at all and quite possibly some of the coolest miniatures that Mantic 'could' put out to date. Here's hoping they look as good as this when they get to the plastic stage. What is quite cool is that they have the look of the Diablo about them and could well have jumped right out of the world made by Blizzard.
Will you be backing for the big ol' demon?

I have to say I’ve been impressed with Mantic’s products lately. Their sculpts are getting much better, and are consistently better, yet they’re still affordable. And when all the stretch goal stuff has been produced we’ll have even more figures to choose from. If I was still supporting kickstarters this one would be one of them.
Now if only they would redo those Kings of War famine elves…
…and their terrible Dwarfs (bar the heroes, who are pretty awesome).

Great to see some Abyssal models on the horizon for Mantic. Hopefully we will see this spill over into a full Kings of War range at some point in the future.
Would love to see that. I’ve been using gors and ungors as minor devils in our AD&D campaign, but I’m thinking these ‘could be’ a cheaper alternative, and could convince me to build an entire devilish army.
Oh! These are very nice daemons! This has been a very nice surprise since I wasn’t expecting any, I’m following their KS but not sure the value is there yet, maybe these guys will push me closer to pledging now!
Unimpressed by the generic design, I just don’t like the artists style at all. Looks cheap and rushed to me, and nothing at all like something that would come out of Blizzard studios.
Hi I like the look of the Arianya figure but not sure on the Deamon hunter we will have to see
