The Sorcerer Kings are such a wonderful and unique faction. You don’t often see to much influence from India in the Tabletop Wargames space and only a marginal bit more of Arabic or Mongolian design influence. I am really glad to see a fantasy army pulling from those cultural design-space. I look forward to seeing the Earth and Water elements added to the Sorcerer Kings and to see the arrival of the Tribes in the future!

The Conquest range of models is most definitely going from strength to strength and the Sorcerer Kings have a very unique feel to them. I think they are my favourite aesthetically followed by the City States and then Old Dominion. I really wanted to like the Dino riders, turns out I liked the dinosaurs but wasn’t blown away by the look of the models riding them.

The Sorcerer Kings however, so far I’ve loved all the models, which is pretty rare in any game.
