Guard The Priests Of Cyriss With The Steelsoul Protector
October 3, 2013 by brennon
Privateer Press have another releases for the Convergence of Cyriss and Warmachine on the cards to help bolster their forces. This time the Priests of Cyriss thank the stars for protection with the Steelsoul Protector...
Here's what they have to say...
"The primary purpose of a steelsoul protector is to serve as a shield against any harm intended for the priests of Cyriss. The shell of the vessel is engineered to be light enough to allow its bearer to move with startling speed while also being tremendously durable. The vessel’s frame possesses the strength necessary to employ the protector’s massive iron glaive to deflect incoming blows and deliver surprisingly swift counterstrikes. Only the most worthy members of the Convergence are afforded the tremendous honor of being chosen for soul transfer into one of these revered vessels."
They look pretty damn awesome and the way it's been modeled it looks like they have taken on board some anime themes for the female characters in the Convergence line-up. I know a few friends who will be waiting eagerly for these to hit.
Will this be your Protector?
I like the version sitting on a keg. This one looks like she’d kill you for even asking to buy her a drink.
This is very similar to the iron Kingdom miniature that was released ages ago… one of the first of the range, if I remember, and one of my all time favorites.
this one’s not bad at all, but the sub-par paint-job makes it look chubby compared to the actual details ! 🙁
Ah yes, the Tomb Maiden miniature they released as part of the range to support the Witchfire Trilogy. I always thought it was kind of neat how they went back and referenced their early work when establishing how the Cyriss faction should look.
I still like the Steelsoul Keg Protector better. However picking one up to have a second model might not be a bad idea.
