  • Isaiah, Dread Harvester

    Posted on February 10, 2021 7:00 am by gdaybloke Comment

    “The dominant spirit, however, that haunts this enchanted region, and seems to be commander-in-chief of all the powers of the Urcaen, is the apparition of a figure on horseback, without a head. It is said by some to be the ghost of a Llaelese trooper, whose head had been carried away by a cannon-ball, in some nameless battle during the Northern Crusade, and who is ever and anon seen by the country folk hurrying along in the gloom of night, as if on the wings of the wind. His haunts are not confined to the valley, but extend at times to the adjacent roads, and especially to the vicinity of a church at no great distance. Indeed, certain of the most authentic historians of those parts, who have been careful in collecting and collating the floating facts concerning this spectre, allege that the body of the trooper having been buried in the churchyard, the ghost rides forth to the scene of battle in nightly quest of his head, and that the rushing speed with which he sometimes passes along the Hollow, like a midnight blast, is owing to his being belated, and in a hurry to get back to the churchyard before daybreak.”
    – From The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, with apologies to Washington Irving

    Isaiah is a legend even among the pumpkin-headed Dread Rots, riding out of the soup-thick mists to reap not only those wicked souls who abuse their laborers, but also the communities that turn a blind eye to the evil among their own. Other Dread Rots come in his wake, spurred on by his presence, passing through any obstacle as they coordinate their efforts. The Harvest waits for no man…

    A dragoon solo, Isaiah starts the game riding forth on his Frightmare, his Wicked Scythe reaping a terrible harvest as he collects the corpses of his victims to fuel his own attacks and those of his fellow Dread Rots. The front of the Frightmare is the only resin component of the model, and yes, the hoof had snapped off in transit, but resin tends to break cleanly and it was a super easy repair. The pieces assemble seamlessly once the resin channels are cleared making for very easy assembly.

    Once dismounted, you’d think Isaiah would be weakened, but no – he just gets mad, and starts throwing his head as a ranged attack. With theĀ Assaultrule, it just means he can schmuck someone from up to 16″ away, with the added bonus that if he boxes the target with his own flaming head, that target rises as a Dread Rot themselves, reinforcing an existing unit. I guess Isaiah reloads by grabbing another spectral pumpkin head from his scythe?

    Painted by our pal NekuraIzou, who continues to stray further and further from the Light of Menoth. Frankly, I would have thought his Infernal legacy would have conflicted with the Grymkin, but here we see NekuraIzou entreating Isaiah with the promise of cinnamon, a crumbly crust, and some whipped cream. Wait, no, that’s a pumpkin pie, not a pumpkin head… Oh, it’s all so confusing for a faithful Menite like me…

    Isaiah rides out of your nightmares and onto your tabletops, from your FLGS or preferred online retailer.

    On the one hand we have arguably the most ambitious woman in the Iron Kingdoms, having spent years rising to be one of the most powerful and influential individuals in the hierarchy of the Protectorate of Menoth, only to find her schemes torn asunder as the Iron Kingdoms fell apart during the Infernal invasion. On the other, we have four gremlins with macabre hobby horses, representing the riders of the apocalypse and generally causing havoc. Feora the Forsaken and The Four Horseymans are here to join your games of Riot Quest and Warmachine/Hordes.

    Years ago, there was an episode of Let’s Make A Deal. One of the options included a ski adventure. To display this there was a taxidermy’d donkey – apparently part of the show’s prop room for decades – on skis. Said skis had rockets attached. This was the legend of Rocket Donkey inspired. Our equine hero zooms onto the scene with a resounding FWOOSH!

    I can see you’re waiting for relevance. August’s target was things that get you from A to B, things that are fast, things that help go FWOOSH! Let’s see what landed in the inbox…

    Ever had one of those days when you just *really* want to annoy Warmachine players? There they are, stomping around the place with their enormous machines of war, while you’ve been stuck mucking out the Mountain King’s enclosure, and you think to yourself how much you hate the fact that Colossals don’t poop so those Khadorans over there just don’t know your pain, how hard it is to scrub the smell out of your breeches…

    And then some Grymkin come along and you point them in the right direction and you can just feel that warm feeling in your chest when you just know someone on the other side of the battlefield is about to have a really bad day…

    Ladies and Gentelelost, the Gremlin Swarm.
