Para Bellum Games, publisher of fantasy Mass Combat Miniature Wargame “Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings” and Skirmish ruleset “Conquest: First Blood,” has revealed the latest addition to their Artisan Series line of products, with the titanic Talos for the City States faction.
A third MONSTER to the existing earthen Hephaestian and firey Promethians Titans, the Talos is a brand new model for play in both ‘The Last Argument of Kings’ and ‘First Blood’ City States army lists. Combining a giant’s body with mechanical grafts and reinforcements, the nigh-unkillable Talos serve not only through their combat ability but as tactical coordinators, mediating between the capabilities of Titans and humans and enhancing the magical prowess of both. Sculpted by the celebrated talent of Michael Kontraros in yet another cooperation with Conquest, the Talos is a must-have for all City States, and a perfect opportunity for creative ideas and hobby time.
“Every Artisan Series entry is a celebration of the Faction it belongs to,” says Founder and Creative Director, Stavros Halkias, “as those are seen by our artists’ unbridled – sometimes even unhinged – creativity. The Talos is a perfect example of that, bringing the clockwork-warrior feel of the City States phalanxes to the imposing might of their Titan allies. And having Michael Kontraros’ talents on the sculpt delivered just the execution we could ask for!” Blending mechanical parts and armor with gems, tubes and the titan flesh of the gigantic Talos, and offering two distinct head variations, the sculpt is a perfect canvas for inspired painting schemes, not to mention an imposing and much-dreaded presence on the gaming table. Being a mystery even to their own allies, the sky is the limit for what one can do with this amazing Monster entry for the City States. With brand new rules to accompany them in both game systems, the Talos is a must have for any City States Warlord!
The Talos Artisan Series Abomination (SRP USD/EU 129.99) is available for pre-order and will be released later this month!
