A new faction is about to hit the Eden ground this month of December.

The Nephilims !



More details will be unveiled everyday until the official launch of the starter box !
until then check the trailer on Taban Miniatures or Youtube ...

" Be careful. These monsters fell from the sky, fell on us, and whoever will come close will fall also. They are those the ancients called the Naphilims, the fallen ones. This threat is upon us, it is time to put our differences apart and to know our worst ennemy.
-Extract from a letter written by Sister Solène of the Matriarchy of Sybille, to Hildegarde of the Convoy.

Sister Solene, of the Matriarchy of Sybille, first used the term “Nephilim” to name the creatures that fell in Dobrogee. The esoteric term stayed and, travelling with the Convoy, spread among the survivors. For their part, the visitors name themselves under a name which is a mixture of pheromons, rattling sounds and brain waves. Awkwardly transcribed in a human language, the name would be “Atrahasis”.
The Nephilims have discovered in Dobrogee an irradiated and hostile land, given to nefarious barbarians whose mere appearance frighten them. They are yet determined to turn this hell into a cradle for the rebirth of their civilization, whatever the price may be."

It's alright.

Kenshiro will put them all into the ground.

Curious what these guys look like. That teaser video gave a quick glimpse.

And here is the first concept art for the Nephilim faction :

Bo Dagun, a fiercy warrior that will be able to capture his prey to conduct further experiments in the mother ship.....

Looks really cool. Eager to see the actual mini

And now Master Yg Faris !

Well crap, another game I have to look into; these guys look interesting.

And the last fellows of the starter box : Yu Silaa


and Ar Gamon !!!

Now that's some fantastic looking concept art!

A lot of the Taban miniatures are absolutely stunning, some of the best on the market I think.

I won't copy-paste any here, but seriously just type 'Taban' into Google images and see what I mean..

Thanks guys for your kind comments

Here are the pictures of the actual models sculpted after the concept art :
Bo Dagun and Yg Faris

The starter will be available this friday (8:30 PM european time). Fist as a 400 units limited edition with an exclusive miniature token and additional profile cards with the concept arts posted previously

The Bo Dagun's legs ended up thinner than I was expecting; it throws off the model's visual balance for me. Are the legs from the forward knee to the ankle suppose to be mechanical or is it suppose to be armor? The Yg Faris looks good and I look forward to seeing the other two.

Here they are !

Yu Silaa






Ar Gamon






and of course the limited edition miniature (token for the nergal weapon's effect :

Very cool (although the last one is pretty gross!) The armour style makes me think of the 'Dwemer' from Elder Scrolls, really wonderful paint job.
