This May, we only have one new release for Warcrow (but that’s because we’re coming off a massive April launch with the Mounthaven Action Pack!). However... what a release it is! Scions of Yaldabaoth players are getting miniatures that are clear contenders for 'miniature of the year': the Harvester Riders.
Husks can be created from the corpses of humans, dwarves, orcs, varank, or, in short, any animal that inhabits the world… even from elves. However, the Scions have such great respect for their kin that the reanimated elves receive special attention from the Weavers. They are known as the Harvesters and are the elite forces of the Dead Flesh.
The Harvesters move with an agility and precision unbecoming of a corpse, and the scythes with which they are armed turn them into embodiments of death itself. They have the honor of wearing a mask thanks to which they retain part of the will they possessed in life, which allows them to act creatively and independently. Some Harvesters ride out into battle on mounts, as they are the only undead with the skill to master these infernal steeds.
This Harvester Riders box contains 2 plastic resin miniatures. Elite elven cavalry unit focused on mobility, endurance, and morale pressure. They can traverse any terrain, absorb damage through taint, and destabilize the enemy, being especially effective against units with low Willpower. They provide tempo control to the Scions army, allowing battles to be won through breaking formations and forcing enemy retreats.
What do they bring to your army?
- High resilience: they use tinge instead of wounds, forcing the opponent to invest many attacks before dealing real damage.
- Willpower pressure: they force checks with penalties, reducing enemy morale and activating their synergies.
- Soul Reapers: they can immediately force a unit that fails a Willpower check to flee, removing it without the need for direct combat.
