Reaper Miniatures Previews Undead Spirits
February 25, 2015 by stvitusdancern
Reaper Miniatures upcoming releases for April and May have come from beyond and have shown themselves. In the Dark Legends line for April we get a look at a Death Shroud, a miniature that would do exceedingly well on a table in either a RPG or a dungeon crawler type game. The second release for May in this line is Moandin, Arch Lich, who is for sure to give all a nightmare or two.
Both of these miniatures are in heroic scale. If I had room I would have already put them on my list to order when available, heck I may order them anyhow as what self respecting miniatures gamer doesn't already have a mountain of projects?
Do you dare bring these into your home?
I like the death shroud, and the concept of Moandin, but the face looks a bit too calm, not threatening at all. Could be the pic.
Those are looking really nice.
What is Heroric Scale? Not familiar with this term.
Heroic Scale is the term coined by Reaper in the 90s, and means roughly “larger than classic roleplaying 25mm (=Ral Partha) but not quite as cartoony, overblown or overdone as Games Workshops minis of that era” Today I think they would be calles “heroically proportioned 28mm”.
Usually a Reaper mini should fit (size-wise if not style wise) into your Warhammer army or equivalent.
