Golden Aspirations

April 2020·pp. 90–95

THE SHORT VERSION

Neil Hollis documents preparing Berek the Indomitable for a planned Golden Demon entry, from a stepped scenic base to carefully blended non-metallic armour. Reflected colours, soft cloth and a hidden green light enrich the composition, while earlier award-winning pieces illustrate the same concern for materials, storytelling and presentation.

The Tome Celestial: Vokmortian’s Tithe Legion

Vokmortian’s relentless collection of bone underpins the Ossiarch empire and its expansion across Hallost. His contracts, layered legends and campaigns show both the administrative cruelty of the bone-tithe and the force behind it, including a costly confrontation with the Tarkan ogors and plans to exploit the Beastmaw Realmgate.

Vokmortian’s Tithe Legion: Warscroll Battalions

Three formations represent Vokmortian’s army, his personal retinue and coordinated Harvester packs. The rules give the larger legion access to spectral allies, protect its emissary through an ancestral contract and reward Gothizzar Harvesters attacking alongside Kavalos Deathriders, with restrictions tying the formations to Mortis Praetorians.
