Hi there all - something very new here, and a slight departure from previous infantry sets!

Introducing the first miniature for a new range of more sorcerous infantry is the Diadoki, of the Taekolta faction.

The Taekolta are predatory civilisation, feared for raiding small isolated settlements across the Promised Land, lead by covens of priests and witches alike. Each tribe, or Kolta, spends most of its time acting independently of the others, however it is not unheard of for, in times of dire need and approaching witherseasons, the Meridarka to call for a uniting of the tribes. The Diadoki marshal the tribe under their command, each word unquestioned, for the Diadoki are each born of the royal bloodline, those closest in kin to Taeish, the avatar of their spirituality.

So, in a nutshell, the Diadoki are mutant magic murderers descended from genocidal angels, who lead their tribes into war. They're not solely equipped with melee weapons, but also bring to bear both bows and guns, summon undead monsters, and use arcane magics to both defend themselves and turn nature against their foes, in (naturally) the most disturbing of ways. And they can ride undead stag-bears. You get the idea.
