Twilight Preview - Delgon Soldiers

[Carcharoth]

Here's another preview for you. I think you've seen the painted soldiers already, but this is the first time I've shown Ben's painted Derakeers. I've not managed to take a big group shot of the deraks alongside the spears, but I'll get there eventually!
Let me know what you think 







These will be released along with the Acolyte and head/weapons sprue in a couple of weeks time.

Thanks Awesome soldiers 

The look great - both of them, but I'm especially fond of the derakeers - they look fantastic.

Got to have some of those

Glad to see the Delgon getting some more basic troops released to complement the Striders, since an all-Strider force is obviously ridiculous.

Nice minis.  :applause:The soldiers looks likes the fubarni empire soldiers.

Does the soldiers & deraks  have got the same rules as the Fubarni Empire?

[Jubal]

The soldiers and militia are pretty similar, but the Delgon ones don't have defender skill. The Derakeers are quite different and use the new ranged rules that haven't been released yet.

[Carcharoth]

In terms of rules the main differences between the Empire and the Delgon troops is with the command structure. Whereas the Fubarnii of the Empire can operate with a nice loose structure and rely heavily on their captains with Coordinated strikes and Combat Trained/Discipline, the Delgon need to maintain a much tighter formation, with either large numbers of soldiers, or a few elite troops to inflict the killing blows.
I'll do my best to put the playtest ranged combat rules online later today.
