Sisk: War Priest
While not the backbone of the legions, the Sisk War priests are ushered throughout the battle by protecting javelineers and swordsmen, enabling them to heal and boost the morale of friendly units, while demoralizing the enemy.


Benefits
Can cast spells (and therefore has access to the spell card deck), can heal wounded units


Drawbacks
Vulnerable to damage


The Sisk War Priest will feature in the core set of Torn Armor that is being Kickstartered March 3/3 of this year - less than 2 weeks time folks!. It will be one of the base units for the Sisk faction.

New Miniature Posted: Maychian Skirmisher Elemental

Maychian Elemental Skirmisher Golem
When the Sisk discovered their stash of ancient war golems and proceeded to conquer much of the known world with them, their adversaries had to react and counter with war beasts of their own.

Here is pictured a Maychian Elemental Golem. Constructed from the earth itself, these lumbering constructs can reach 18' in height or more. This light elemental golem is 12' tall and hurls boulders as a ranged weapon.

It will feature in the core set of Torn Armor being kickstarted 3/3.

Sisk Light War Golem

View attachment 19007
The Sisk faction is known for their "Roman-like" expansionist nature, fueled through an army of war golems discovered in the heart of their empire several hundred years ago. Since discovering this ancient weapons stash, they have been nearly unstoppable in their conquests.


Pictured is a Sisk Light Golem. It stands approximately 12' tall on the battlefield (60mm to the eyes as a miniature).


Strengths: Ability to withstand damage, a one-golem walking shield wall, can brace against enemy attacks, hellacious cleaving ability.

Weaknesses: Lack of speed, no ranged ability.


This golem is part of the core set of Torn Armor being kickstarted 3/3 to 4/4.

If you are curious about this game, seriously this is a good read. It's a good read, because it's impartial and it peels back the curtain. I dig it. I dig it for its honesty:

John Rossomangno:
"And now, part 2 of my interview with the creator of the Torn World RPG and name behind The Cartography of +Alyssa Faden. A look at the setting's upcoming miniatures skirmish game, Torn Armor, including some early looks at a few of the awesome figures and artwork."

I love his writing style on these interviews. Let me know your thoughts and feedback. Does this interview raise any questions, help understand what Torn Armor is about?

Sisk: Hero, Consia de Grualva

View attachment 19049
For our forthcoming Torn Armor board game kickstarting 3/3. One of the twists with this game is the addition of "hero units." These units are the equivalent of a full squad of men and can fight alone or be attached to and pass on their special abilities to a squad.


This is Consisa de Grualva, one of the early sisk explorers and a pioneer in the discovery of the new continents in the Northern Hemisphere.


Benefits
Leadership, Inspiring. Consia's presence can help resist against fear-effects and intimidating units.


Drawbacks
Not as diverse as some heros in her abilities or weaponry.


Consisa de Grualva will feature in the core set of Torn Armor that is being Kickstartered in March 3/3 of this year. She will be one of the hero units for the Sisk faction.

A gameplay video has been posted to YouTube and I'd like to invite you to check it out to see what Torn Armor is all about:

Jack & Alyssa go head to head in a game of Torn Armor. Jack takes on the Maychian faction and their fast moving abilities, while Alyssa adopts the slower, but tougher Sisk faction. Who will win?

Looks very interesting! I love the Rhino with the mouse powered shoulder packs. How tall do you think the Rhino will be?

Thanks Grim6!

The Rhino (Kerrosus Behemoth Assault unit) will be about 120mm to the eyes and on a 100mm base.

 

[Grim6]

Ok, thanks! I misread above - I though the 120mm was the base. Very cool!

 

[Kolyana]

Ok, thanks! I misread above - I though the 120mm was the base. Very cool!

No problem Grim, anytime - seriously.

I love these guys - they're the right kind of insane. I already loved the little mu (mice), the hoplite guys, the monkey dudes ... all the way up to those sexy war golems. But these things ... holy heck in a handbasket ... they just rock. I can't wait to put them down on the gaming table, lol. Can you imagine a couple of these things side by side?
