The gatorman warlock known as Maelok the Dreadbound exists in a torturous state of undeath as an animated corpse bound to the will of another. Despite his decaying physical form, Maelok is still a mighty bokur who can return slain allies to life, steal the souls of the living, or connect to the spirit world to transform his army temporarily into ghostly horrors unimpeded by flesh, stone, or steel.




A powerful scion of a family with deep roots in the ancient lines of the Wolves of Orboros, Grayle the Farstrider was trained as a Wolf until he experienced the wilding. As a druid, he has proven his worth and skill as a trusted strike force leader and an unrelenting warrior who simply does not know failure. In battle Grayle embodies the wolf and moves from target to target with vicious speed and efficiency like a predator in human form whose blades strike with the feral precision of a hunting beast.




Astride her horrifying skeletal steed, the infamous Alexia Ciannor reaps the souls of her enemies with the hell-forged blade Witchfire. The dark sorceress can raise an army of terrifying thrall warriors from the grave and rides alongside them as she lays about her with her sword, leaving nothing but ashes where she strikes.

That "skeletal steed" isn't.

Alexia and Maelok are nice sculpts, though I really won't have use for either as I won't be doing Gators (got enough to go Farrow should I want Minions) and my Mercs have lots of Morrowans so shoe horning Alexia in might be kind of a pain. And I'd have to get her original version as it's such a nice unit!

Grayle, on the other hand, does nothign for me. It's an uninspired pose, the hood and face look odd, he looks more like a solo or UA than a Warlock and his swords look too small. Definitely a miss for me on this one.

I like Maelok and Grayle (though something does seem odd about his hood). I just wish they had released another badly needed Gatorman unit as opposed to another Warlock. I like the candles though

Grayle is nice because I don't find many of the Circle warlocks to be to my liking, so he adds to the small list I find acceptable. He could be better - but he'll do.

Grayle is awful. I thought the 360 would make it work, but his tiny misshapen hooded head is still tiny. Another boring/ugly warlock/caster. Circle is close to matching Legion in that department now.

Maelok looks great IMO. I like the candles, they're obviously will o'the wisp references. Some people can be pretty dense.

The gator ain't doing it for me. I like the idea of a voodoo zombie gator, but I think he looks too bulky or busy. The simple low key Barnabas looks much better to me.

Now the circle caster looks Too plain to me. He looks more like a random guy than a warlock.

Alexia I like, though her steed could indeed stand to be more skeletal.

Love the gator. I foresee a Minions army in my future.

Alexia I really like, I've never been a fan of skeletal horses as they always somehow look off to me, whether that's the sculpts or the fact that a horse skeleton is a bit odd I don't know. It's not skeletal, but it does look undead which works for me.

Grayle isn't particularly interesting or characterful.

Maelok is just too busy, I have to agree with Mad4Minis there. Really don't like the candles on his head.

Alexia is great. I like the horse even if its not very skeletal.

The other two are nice sculpts as well but have the same pose which I'm not a big fan of.
