Beasts, Riders & Breakers Coming To Prodos’ Warzone
March 19, 2016 by brennon
Prodos Games have three new sets up and ready to order from their webstore for the world of Warzone: Resurrection. Alien warriors, riders and deadly skull-faced cut-throats are coming to make your life a misery (or glorious) on the battlefield.
Mercurian Maculators
First up we have the Mercurian Maculators who are some dangerous looking brutes for the Dark Legion. They look like awesome hulking brutes with massive cannons that look like they can deliver a dangerous amount of firepower.
I quite like the snarling creature but my favourite is the one with the more stern expression. The one yelling at the top of his voice could do with a neat explosion of fire coming from the end of his gun.
Strathgordon Varg Riders
The Imperials get these women warriors atop some monstrous looking Vargs. I always like any kind of mounted unit that isn't on a typical mount like a horse. Lizards have obviously been done before but Wolves will never get old.
Interestingly the unit came into being when the army lost all of their bikes. Needing a fast attack option they turned to these beasts to lead the way in the fighting.
Martian Banshee Linebreaker
Last but not least we have some more standard looking soldiers for Capitol. I don't like much about Capitol it has to be said but the skull-mask wearing Martian Banshees are pretty awesome.
With M14 pistols and chainrippers these soldiers are all about getting stuck in. Gone are their mid-range options in favour of proper tools for getting the job done up close.
What do you think?

They seem to have turned them from apes to orcs. and shrunk them alot in size.
Agreed. Mercurian Maculators have always been on of my favorite Unit names in Wargaming.
But what beautiful orcs!
This stuff looks class.
Very nice.
the vargs &Orks are great.
Are these more “painted” renders?
Yeah. Pro-painted pieces are better of course but as long as AvP shipping is.. ongoing, I can’t blame them for employing a more economical option.
Yup, more painted renders. Really starting to develop a bad taste for such, and that’s on top of the bad taste I’ve had dealing with the company as a whole.
Also……Prodos are bringing out a PG13 version of Space Crusade with their lady bits covered up. They look soooooo much better. Miniatures available seperately 28th March according to a report on bols.
Love all of these. Think the banshee would make a nice alternate Eversor assassin. They look like their vests could packed full of explosives…..
The Maculators are orcs now? 😛 and the wolves … ok im gonna stop there
Painted renders, very nice they are too. Any chance of some actual pics of honest, real world models?
I’m not keen on the colours of those Martian Banshee guys but I do like to look of the models. Nice to see orcs/orks/space greenskins with a bit of a different look, liking them too.

giant undead gorilla thing turned into traditional orc .. not saying the models are bad, just they are a bit too far off the mark imo.
Well if i look at your picture and the Malculators i must say the look realy similiar, teh head of the left one looks nearly identical the only big difference i see is the size, the one in the picture looks way bigger then the new ones.
I would agree if i could shake the orcs im seeing 🙂
both of the old versions were considerably larger than these:

The Orc looking guys look like computer painted art rather than models.
