Of Gladiators and Sloth-men (Patreon)

It's a lovely sunny day here in deepest darkest Sherwood and I bring you a nice little update on June's battle host as well as what you can expect next month!

First of all, you should have all the files now bar the gladiators, although I have yet to send you MMF links, which I'll sort out when the gladiator files are ready (likely next week).

Lud I Crixus, Gladiator Ludus

So these guys have taken their sweet time in being completed, for which your humble scribe can only apologise. We've only just got the files, and they're not supported yet, but we can at least show you what you can expect by early next week.

As you can see, you'll get the gladiators on foot as well as on their lions, which look utterly superb even if we do say so ourselves!

So that draws this month's battle host to a close; what's happening in July?

Fomoraic (Far Thule) Mallax Battle Host

Well now. These guys have been on the horizon for so long it's almost obscene, but the actual miniatures themselves - crikey blimey O'Reilly, those miniatures - are obscener, if that's a word. By gum they are lovely! Who knew sloth-men

For those not in the know, the mallax are woolly sloth-men for the Fomoraic kindred and Far Thule realm; joined by some new nobles, a giant sloth-monster and the (not shown) mallax wild raiders (riding giant sabretooth tigers, of course), these guys will pack a punch both visually and on the battlefield. We can't wait for them!

• Saw-Sword Aalvór, Mallax Thuln

• Saw-Spear Aalvór, Mallax Thuln

• Qilqaaq, Mallax Kigutaaq

• Skullcap Qilqaaq, Mallax Kigutaaq

• Grunting Mallax, Saw-Sword Mallax Unit (7x warriors)

• Grunting Mallax, Saw-Spear Mallax Unit (7x warriors)

• Growling Mallax, Mallax Wild Raider Unit (3x warriors)

• Maalkar, Lumbering Mallox

The loyalty reward for July will be

• Aastrid, Thulean Raider Thuln on foot and on feleacx

• Hunter Aastrid, Thulean Raider Thuln on foot and on feleacx

Monthly Beast

I haven't yet decided on what the monthly beast for July - for the BEASTMASTER and SELL-SWORD rewards - will be...!

Normal service should be resumed in July; the full battle host reveal should be with you early next week, and the files not long after.

Until next time...
