Necromunda is no stranger to fanatics and power struggles, but the Aranthian Succession has pushed things into absolute chaos.
The underhive has erupted in war, Lord Helmawr was nearly assassinated, Lady Haera massacred her own siblings, and entire cities have been set ablaze by gang wars. Yet, amidst this carnage, a new and terrifying figure has risen—The Prophet of the Redemption.
If you’re a House Cawdor player, a fan of crazed zealots, or just love unkillable lunatics, this brand-new Forge World miniature is going to turn heads (and maybe set them on fire).
Who Is the Prophet of the Redemption?
This mystical, half-crazed preacher emerged from the smouldering ruins of Cinderak City, rallying hive-dwellers, outcasts, and religious zealots to his cause. What makes him different from the usual hive preachers? Well, his banner is literally made from the skeletal remains of a Redemptor Priest, a sacred relic that gives him an aura of divinity so overwhelming that even his enemies hesitate to attack him.
He doesn’t need heavy weapons or brute strength—his true power is in the sheer, mindless devotion he inspires. His followers will die for him without question, and even trained killers hesitate before pulling the trigger when facing this holy lunatic.
Rules – Unkillable Through Faith Alone
Blessed by the Lost Saint – The Rule That Makes Him Unstoppable
Enemies must pass a Willpower test just to attack him – Fail the test? Your action immediately ends and you just wasted your activation staring at him in religious awe.
Even if you pass, good luck getting through his insane 3+ save – This isn’t just any save, it CANNOT be modified or ignored. That means it bypasses armor-piercing weapons, special abilities, or anything else designed to punch through defenses.
That’s right—this unarmored, wild-eyed zealot with a beard as his only protection is harder to kill than some Goliath champions in full power armor.
Who Can Hire Him?
The Prophet of the Redemption is an Outlaw Hired Gun, meaning he’s available to:
House Cawdor – Naturally, the most devout fire-spewing zealots of Necromunda would love to follow a guy like this.
Crusading gangs – Any gang that leans into the faith-driven, rebellious, or fanatical side of things can bring him along.
Lady Credo’s Rebellion allies – If you’re fighting against the Helmawr dynasty, this mad preacher of doom is here to bring divine retribution.
Final Thoughts – The Ultimate Hive Preacher
If you love the grimdark religious fanaticism that makes House Cawdor one of the most unique and thematic gangs in Necromunda, the Prophet of the Redemption is an absolute must-have. He’s a walking miracle, a nightmare to kill, and a rallying symbol of pure fanaticism.
This Forge World resin kit is on its way soon, and his rules are already available in Necromunda: The Aranthian Succession – The Vaults of Temenos.
So, the real question is: Will you follow the Prophet… or try (and likely fail) to stop him?
