Para Bellum Reveals the Centaur Avatara for Conquest

Posted on by Leave a comment

A massive humanoid torso crowns the baroque, armored equine monstrosity of the Centaur Avatara, bristling with arms each carrying a deadly blade. Scoffing at the notion of partnership with another being, but keenly aware of the advantages of cavalry upon the field, Spires created the Centaur iterations of the Avatara to mimic the original knights, the companions and equites of the Old Dominion.

To date, these have been reserved for only the eldest and most powerful elders of the Lineages. Their recent presence on the western battlefield can only bode ill for the Hundred Kingdoms as these hoary monsters shed millennia of ennui and rekindle their bloodlust and interest in battle.

Para Bellum has revealed three new Founder’s Exclusive model kits for 2021. See what you can get and pre-order them so you don’t miss out!

Founder’s Exclusive 2021 Spires: The Legacies of the Ark

Sculpted by Michael Kontraros, our Spire Founder’s Exclusive – The Legacies of the Ark – depicts a Lineage Highborn Elder in all his twisted glory. His Avatar projection, already a masterpiece of biomantic expertise, has been enhanced by its rider with proprietary knowledge available only to his Lineage, resulting in an inhumanly efficient killing machine that mirrors the twisted psyche of its owner.

This Founder’s Exclusive depicts a Lineage Highborn, his complex and ornate Avatara Projection clearly signaling his Elder Status. This model can thus be fielded as a Lineage Highborn, and is especially appropriate to represent an Elder of his lineage gifted with the Legacies of the Ark Supremacy Ability.

Founder’s Exclusive 2021 Hundred Kingdoms: The Joust

Sculpted by the Para Bellum team, our Hundred Kingdoms Founder’s Exclusive – The Joust – depicts a Mounted Noble Lord challenging a dark Tourney Champion. Frozen a fraction of an instant before impact with the noble lord riding out full tilt against his dark challenger, this scene is one of the most iconic and timeless images of feudal times.

This Founder’s Exclusive contains two fantastically detailed knights charging each other full tilt! Each model in the diorama can also be fielded either as a Mounted Noble Lord or as a Tourney Champion, giving you even more options to depict the flower of the Hundred Kingdoms nobility in action!

Founder’s Exclusive 2021 Dweghom: The Mountain Stands

Sculpted by the Para Bellum team, our Dweghom Founder’s Exclusive – The Mountain Stands – depicts a Hold Raegh Warlord leading his Combat Retinue vested in the full panoply and glory of his hold. His authority and stature made clear to all who witnessed it as he stands above the greatest heroes of the most influential factions in his Hold: the Clans, the Tempered and the Ardent.

This founders exclusive contains 5 independent miniatures, enough for you to create the full diorama for display OR field in your army as a Hold Raegh with full Combat Retinue (with one model left over that can represent an Exemplar or Flamecaster!). Each model comes with alternative arms allowing you to assemble it as you wish OR get the best of both worlds and magnetize them so you can field both at once! (We have included 3x1mm magnet sized holes in all the joints to make this even easier). As an added bonus the Hold Raegh has an alternative head!
