Forge World releases new units for the Heresy-era Mechanicum: The Myrmidon Destructors.
Not only is Games Workshop pulling the veil off new releases before Saturdays, as they did with the Imperial Knight, it appears Forge World is moving releases towards the middle of the week to accommodate.
Additions to the Mechanicum will find many fans, I am sure. These are surprisingly large! At £36.00, they are also almost affordable (as Forge World stuff goes).
Mechanicum Myrmidon Destructors
The Myrmidon Destructors are priests of the Mechanicum who specialise in the art of destruction with ranged weaponry and the embodiment of this within their own vastly augmented bodies.
This complete resin set contains three Mechanicum Myrmidon Destructor models with a volkite Culverin, irradiation engine and conversion beamer respectively.
Thoughts?
I’ll be honest: Mechanicum/Mechanicus isn’t really my cup of tea.
Still, these look like great models, and (in my humble opinion) it makes a lot more sense for Forge World to cater to the more exotic armies out there (or even exotic games… ya know… like Warhammer Fantasy) than add more Space Marine variants (and I love my Space Marines).
Let me know what you think of the Myrmidons!
