Kings of War Grows: New FREE Armylist for The Herd

Mantic releases rules for yet another army. The Herd aka “Not-Beastmen” is here for Kings of War!

The team at Mantic has been hard at work creating lists for ex-Warhammer Fantasy players. And while they may not have made models for those armies, Mantic is certainly offering them some support. Take it away Mantic:

Kings of War 2nd Edition includes eleven Force Lists for the major factions of Mantica – but there are many more minor races that go to war besides.

Kings of War: Uncharted Empires will be a compilation of these minor forces, and the second list from the book is now available for you to download as part of our playtesting of the rules. You’ll find all of the instructions for being part of the playtest in the PDF download.

The Herd – available for free download!

Dark Kyron tried to run away but Brave Kyron chased him, flying high across the sky. You can still see them both today, still chasing each other in The Great Hunt. At night, Dark Kyron skulks in the sky, sometimes showing his face, at other times cowering and hiding. Our lost kin worship him in the darkness. In the day, Brave Kyron rises and chases away the shadows and once again shows us the light.

We live to protect and serve the Mother. We are The Lost now Returned. We are the Centaurs, Fauns, Satyrs, Lycans, Minotaurs and more. Some are more beast than man, some more man than beast. We live in the forests, in the hills, the mountains and the rivers. We listen to the world and the world speaks through us. We are the heartbeat and voice of the Mother.

We are The Herd.

You can now download the Herd list and start using any miniatures you may own in Kings of War – The Game Of Fantasy Battles!

What is Uncharted Empires?

Written by Matt Gilbert, Kings of War: Uncharted Empires is a supplementary book hitting retailer shelves in November. It contains nine Force Lists allowing you to field the minor races of Mantica as fully fledged armies on the tabletop.

Well that’s pretty sweet! Free rules to check out to use with the models you already own. Not a bad way to check out a new/different game system if you ask me. Kings of War 2.0 coming to a tabletop near you!

I wonder what goatboy thinks of The Herd!?
