Blood Wars Minis

[demiurge1138]

Okay, I'll bite.

What's a "harmonium" and what about the teaser makes it spring to mind?

Like we've said, the Harmonium is one of the Planescape factions. They're militant Lawful Good whose primary objective is to make everybody follow their benevolent laws OR ELSE. So not all that Good, really. They're responsible for the fall of one of the layers of Arcadia into Mechanus.

Considering that the miniature is referred to as a "hard-head" when the nickname for members of the faction is Hardheads, and it mentions how the character wants to make everyone get along or else... yeah, that's all Harmonium.

Demiurge out.

Don't forget the bladed armor. The harmonium likes their blades on armor. Propably compensting for something.

Thanks, a little more than "planescape faction" was what I was looking for, though the "oh cool" element still isn't coming across (other than being part of an in-joke where I can hold up the mini and say "look, a horny politician").

Although, to be honest, there are precious few armours in Planescape that don't make you look like you're trying to impersonate a very broad-shouldered porcupine.

Planescape minis are good news. Let's hope we'll get modrons next.

They've made Modron's for years;

I really like these, especially the fire giant. This set is really shaping up nicely and I'm looking forward to its release already

I already mentioned it on the thread on the preview, but I love that Blood of Vol Cultist, it's an awesome mini and common to boot. Now I don't feel so bad about missing out on the Cult of Dragon dude in Archfiends anymore, because I'll have a slew of the new, improved Bad Guy in Robes (tm)

Y'know, I don't care too much for how fire giants look. Bright red Rip Taylor hair on dark black skin just looks lousy.

Plus, according to the preview, the minis a lot bigger than the other fire giants. Personally, I'd rather it be closer to the same size.

Here are some more previews. I grabbed the scans off another forum (ukddm) and thought I'd post them here - I think they're from Dragon. Anyway, the succubus is very cool and... another gnome
