Valoran believes himself to be the greatest mortal champion of the armies of Hammerhal Aqsha. For all his arrogance, the so-called Manticore Knight has a fair claim to that title.
And yet Valoran’s remarkable list of military achievements has been marred by recent disgrace. During the knight’s previous campaign, a chain explosion sent several splinters of raw Aqshian realmstone lancing through him. Instead of laying him low, it caused Valoran to enter an elemental rage that ended with him slaying not only the foe but also several comrades unlucky enough to get in his way.
This experience has left Valoran embittered and isolated, willing to risk everything in the pursuit of redemption. He remains afflicted by his emberstone-riddled flesh: his body erupts into flames when he reaches the height of rage, burning anyone nearby who would do him harm.
That's pretty neat. A sword and board tank at first glance, but also needs to keep his distance from his party. Of course, I know nothing of the game rules, so I'm not sure how that will play out in game.

It is a nice model, even though I wanted to see the Dwarf first.

To be fair, the Cursed City pushfits were done really well. We’ve come a long way from 40k’s second edition bolter huggers.
Its highly highly unlikely, but an alternate head option to show emberstone embedded in his face/head would be pretty cool.

Those had more forgiving open poses and sprues were actually good and versatile. I would love to have this knight in bits to replace my Tahlia Vedra on the manticore.

If i was to play analysis, i would say the shield is molded directly onto the cape as a separate piece that slots into the shoulder. The torso and axe arm are all one piece and the head is separate. So a three piece model.

The visual similarities between the weapons are much older than Vadra's model. The twin tailed back spike predates AoS.
In any case, both the helmet and the axe use design language I associate with older Warhammer art - the kind of stuff you'd expect to find in a Blanche painting three decades ago.
I don't think that's a book. Take a look at the Blood Bowl board that is right next to it. Practically the same thing. The "spine" is just where the board folds.
With Bretonnians being in this, and Blood Bowl 3rd Season, are we going to see a new wave of models for WH:The Old World too?

Empire Knights, if anything. Edmark's armor is pretty much identical to the Freeguild Cavaliers. Which is fitting, because that's what he is.
If anything's a Bretonnian, it'd probably be the sellsword, as her pauldron has what vaguely resembles the tail end of a fleur de lis.
The female mage that's yet to be revealed could probably safely proxy as a Bret Damsel, for those that mix product lines. Though in the potato cam pic, she looks to have a bunch of swirly bits.

Yeah, she definitely seems fairly damsel-like, but also reminds me a lot of Lumineth's elemental wizards. If she had pointy ears I'd say she fit the bill perfectly.
