Mantic Games Look Inside KoW Hellfire & Stone
April 15, 2014 by brennon
Hellfire & Stone, the latest expansion sourcebook for Kings of War, is on the way soon from Mantic Games and the chaps there have taken a look within its pages to give you a neat preview of it's contents.
Hellfire & Stone allows both old players and new to take on the quest for the Quartz Sceptre. You'll be playing these games over six scenarios and you can also delve below the surface in a new scenario built for Dwarf King's Hold.
As well as the scenarios we'll have access to rules for Arhak Soulbinder, Slave Orc Gore Riders, Sveri Egilax and the Dwarf Bombard so both Abyssal and normal Dwarves have plenty to glean from this campaign.
It will be fun to see how these big scenarios play out and it might be fun to give it a go expanding your force between missions.
Will you be getting this?

was never the biggest fan of Mantic’s dwarfs but as time’s gone on I think it may have just been some of the paint schemes I’ve seen – the Bulwarkers and bloomin ‘eck thos Brock riders!! I’ve always thought the concept of dwarf cavalry to be heresy but those mounts look fantastic… Bit of work needed on the riders perhaps but all in all…
Campaign book looks pretty good as well, all in all looks like this months pay check will soon be frittered away haha…
Brock Riders look grand as do their character miniatures. It’s just the basic infantry I think could do with a change – I really don’t like the sculpts and I usually love Dwarve(f)s.

I have to say that after painting a whole army of mantic plastic dwarfs, I’ve grown to love them. They’re a little rough and ready, but they have a great old-school feel to them, and the logic of a dwarf being armoured principally against attacks from above is great.
