I love the look of these guys! Very Oni! Much Yokai! They definitely make for some serious baddies. Must resist urge to collect them all…
So far these seem like the faction I would choose. Brutal and have some very well done minis.
they are a bit to evil to me. preachersness are great looking and I wonder if I could somehow use them in warzone r.
oni in space?
Nice! Charge in and hit hard… oh by the way: your armour doesn’t work any more. *Crunch*
I’d like to see these guys in action!
The Dahon just looks amazing. Id get that just to paint and look at and I am not a ‘collector’.
Wow I love the cool design scheme of this faction.
I very much like the look of the factions shown so far. Let’s see a play through!
Just absolutely stunning miniatures. Is there any where to see who’s painted them? They paintjob is just gorgeous.
Let me just post this again..

Dude. Nice work!
Nice! Thanks for the link!
Not quite as brutal as they look, but masters of board control. But oh so beautiful.
that looks like a very fun faction to play
I didn’t think I would like the aesthetic of the Noh until I got the Kasaro To model for SDE. I like how they aren’t the cliched gribbly anime bad guys but draw the classic oni look instead.
Love the look of the faction!!!
The Noh are cool as. I really like the questing knight in the starter box but I can’t seem to find a Relic Knight version of her anywhere, which is a shame!
They look like they would take an airbrush really nicely. Would be quite a nice faction to paint. (Airbrushing red is the most satisfying thing ever, never gonna try and brush something red again as long as I live)
For a faction that initially sounds like a simple smash & grab playstyle, it sounds like it has some nice tricks up its sleeve. The visuals for them aren’t my personal preference, but I’m interested to see how they work on the tabletop.
My second cadre
Zone controle is the Nho way of war. I will stick my immovable object right where you want to be and if you want it, your going to have to come close which is how I like to fight.
With 99% of your options being based on 40mm or bigger you can use your size to controle the chock spots between terrain often forsing you opponent to use valuable activation to go round your rode block all the time you are working towords your own plans
Cool, but I would like to see the game play. Plenty of miniatures I would purchase just to be able to paint.
So many beasties that I don’t feel confident to paint…
I just love the look of those guys. And their playstyle sounds very intriguing. I didn’t have them on my radar for a faction that could start me into this game. But his changed a bit now and they are high up on the list.
Ok. This is cool
yeaaaaaa ! noh empire are cool but the gameplay is not like design expected
I have spoken to some friends that have the Noh starter and the Doctrine starter. They said that the Berserkers where the hardest to get the most out as they are only close combat. I wonder are they getting an updated stat line so they can be more useful?
I personally think the models rock.
I know they switched to resin for their new releases but did they ever sort out the existing plastics? I bought quite a lot of Noh Empire stuff a couple of years ago and the minis are covered in mold lines. I ended up ebaying the lot!
One of the first faction that il chose as part of the kickstarter. I love the models.
