Wild Warriors Take To The Battlefield With Hordes
June 4, 2014 by brennon
Mighty heroes are descending on the world of Hordes from Privateer Press and these four are making quite the splash. See what you think of Absylonia, Zaadesh, Una and Horgle!
First up we have Absylonia, Daughter of Everblight and Tyrant Zaadesh for the armies of Skorne. Despite both of these armies not really being my kind of thing these models do look pretty awesome. I love the stance of Absylonia as she leaps into the air slashing her opponent to death and tossing their limp form across the battlefield. Zaadesh is also in the midst of combat, leaping down on his foe.
As well as these deadly individuals with plenty of spikes we have Una the Falconer and Horgle Ironstrike for Circle Orboros and Trollbloods. Both of these are properly amazing pieces and the amount of detail work they've put into Una is fantastic. She'd also make a perfect Wood Elf Spellsinger if you were so inclined. Horgle however is just amazing. I love Trollbloods anyway but this guy has awesome weapons, is in an awesome stance and would be brilliant to paint.
What do you think?
All these models look fantastic and we already know the rules for Una, Zaadesh and Horgle just want to know Abs now as her fluff makes her sound like something very special
Wow, there is a crazy amount of detail on Una! I could never use her as a character for an RPG though because that ain’t no first level character! That’s what you *hope* you look like by the time your falconeer hits 20th! One bird? Pshaw! She has THREE! I have to say that Absylonia is my favorite, though, because I’ve always liked the way PP show the effects of the blight.. and the evolution of that is always most apparent on the characters. If we get to see another iteration of Absylonia in a few years time she’s going… Read more »
Very very cool ! Now PP’s got back in their game !
This is the first set of release from PP in a long time that doesn’t disappoint in some way. Una is really tempting to me even though I retired my PP game some time ago. She’s just so characterful and rich with details. She looks like she would be fun to paint just for the sake of painting.
3D modeling has really helped to improve PP’s sculpts. If they keep this up my wallet will get pretty thin.
Awesome chunky Trollkin? Check. Carrying hammer and sword still yet being forged? Check. Carrying an anvil slung over his back? Check. This guy is brilliant 🙂
Finally a lesser warlock for my Trolls
Guess I’ll have to learn to use Pyres and Slags
Una is Awesome, Circle is not my faction but I will get this model just for the pleasure of painting it . Horgle is THE lesser Warlock his affinity with the pyre troll is something I have to try on the battlefield.
I am hoping to make use of Horgle in the next couple of weeks just waiting for my Slag Troll to arrive. Now I will go off and Paint my Pyre Troll.
