Napoleon Past & Antares Future Appear In Warlord’s Previews
April 25, 2017 by dracs
Warlord Games have a couple of new models for both the Napoleonic era and the far future of Gates of Antares.
Ride In Royal Splendor
The first miniature previewed is the Royal Horse Artillery for Black Powder.
The Royal Horse Artillery are a regiment of the British army and were established to help provide the cavalry with some artillery support.
The models will be released later this year and I personally really like the small carriage piece, as it looks very different to what I, as a neophyte to Napoleonics would expect to find on the battlefield of the time.
What Manner Of Mech Is This?
As well as the Napoleonics, Warlord have published a preview for a release coming this Friday. I think it's for Hail Caesar!
This is, of course, a new release for Beyond The Gates Of Antares, but aside from that Warlord haven't given us much to go on.
It looks like quite a mighty mech, and that claw hand suggests it could be do some serious damage in close combat. Or win at claw machine games.
Are you more interested in scifi or historical games? Can you take a guess at what that mech will be like?

If you hadn’t said it was for Antares I would have though the mech was for Konflikt 47, nevertheless you should do a Beyond the Gates of Antares week.
They did. It wasn’t memorable though, perhaps in the future a new one with a bit more insight on the game mechanics and the lore…
I agree that mech looks more K47 than GoA.
Bipedal walker but claw looks like Ghar claw.. so maybe another Rebel Ghar creation where they took the top half of a ghar battlesuit and made it 2-legged?…. Doesn’t look smooth enough to be C3 or Algoryn (although Algoryn just got new boxed set… so could follow on that)… not quite organic enough for Isorian… could be Boromite walker…
I agree. Four factions are too sleek, Ghar have a very different silhouette: it’s Boromite or K47.
Beside Ghar Antarean armies have all suspensors for their vehicles, Algoryn will have Hazard suites in the next supplement but I would be very surprised if they look like that. It’s K47
Boromite Mech Loader.
I agree I thought Konflict ’47 when I saw it. It looks too bulky for Ghar.
It’s for K47 not Antares
Also agree that a GoA week is in order.

So yeah, no Mechs like this in Antares.
