The fine folks at PP has passed along some photos of the upcoming cavalry models and we've posted them to TGN.

Feel free to pass along the link but if you don't mind I'd appreciate it if people didn't repost the photos

Thanks

No photos of the Uhlans yet but we'll be posting those as soon as we get them.

Sweet.

I finally got to a place where I can play the game and I'm really getting pumped for the new expansion.

Sweet! Undead cyborg centaurs!

I played an undead cyborg centaur in Rifts once. He was also a mutant weasel gunslinger with crazy brain implants. And an honorary Horseman of the Apocalypse. Horseweasel of the Apocalypse. His name was Gazpacho. I miss Rifts sometimes.

Dear lord those Storm Lances are sexy.

I love the Cygnarian oven mit horses. How cute, they think they're people. This is als o posted in the rumor mill and F.Y.I has sparked a war on the issue of prices between GW and PP . If you would like to comment on that I would recomend posting there for the sake of maintaining a single place of solitude.

Since Cygnar is a big user of electrical weaponry, those 'oven mitts' as you call them would protect the horses from the Storm Lances carried by the riders.

Understandable. One charge and Copper-bullet's twitching on the ground. And yes I think they look like armored oven mitts.

I dunno...those storm lances are kinda short...like storm rebar or something.

Maybe they work like an Eldar unit from 40k called shining spears. They have lazer lances that emit a short range lazer at close range. The storm lances could act in a similar fashion shocking the enemy at close range rather than impailing them.

Fixed your typo.

Or they could just act like big cattle prods. That's what my money's on.

Indeed. Though really there was no typoas I never said worth 50 points a pop   or the equivelent.

Additionally they would be kind of ineffective at that range as a cattle prod. That electricity should have a little arc to it.

Thats pretty funny!
I think the exemplars look the best. Wish we had a picture of the Uhlans. Cool minis all round - even the oven mitt horses.
