Mantic Games - Kings of War Celestials Announcement

Mantic Games revealed a new faction for Kings of War, the Celestials:

Angel Paladin

 

Battle Nuns
 

The major expansion to Kings of War deals with three new armies for Kings of War. The book will look at the background of the three armies, their tactics and strategies and come complete with three new and complete army lists 
1) The book will look at the Archangels, warrior nuns that form around mass ranks of Paladins and human men at arms. There will be heroes mounted on giant sabre-tooth cats (thanks Damon!) and much more! 
Extract: Hegemony of Basilea by Guy Haley
Hidebound and paralysed by ritual it may be, Basilea still reflects some of the ancient glories of Primovantor. Its cities are the largest, its princes the richest, its mages the most powerful of all the kingdoms of men.
Basilea insists that it is the only true protector of Primovantor’s legacy. Noble Paladins devote their entire lives to battle and prayer, undergoing arduous quests to prove their purity to the Shining Ones. Many Orders of the Sisterhood guard the borders. Purity, courage, and strength are the watchwords of this warrior virgins.
The Hegemon is king and high priest both. They rarely manifest directly but will send their servants to the aid of the Basilean armies, should the occasion warrant it. These are the Elohi, angelic beings of immense power, who appear in the guise of beautiful, winged humans armoured all in gold. In war they are all but unstoppable, as terrible in combat as they are merciful and kind out of it. 
2) The book will also look at the depraved hordes from the Abyss with Gargoyles, Hellions, Fire Golems and many more troops from the darkest parts of the underworld – all led by fearsome beasts and demonic leaders. 
3) The forces of the World; elementals, Druid magic, tree kin and all of the forest creatures combined to protect and defend the world. The army will bring all these forces together to destroy all those who intend Mother Earth any harm.
