model.14247 Ammat, Neskofar Captain $8.99This large three-piecemodel comes with a40mm square plasticbase and depicts a giantfemale human-crocodilehybrid. The head andtail come molded on aseparate metal tab andare easily removed andfit into place on thebody nicely. I don’t seea need to pin either oneof them. These twosmaller pieces had verylittle needed in the wayof cleaning. Most of itwas right where theyconnected to the metaltab. There were a fewsmall bits of flash on thebody of the model andthere were a few mold lines to take care of, the mostdifficult was on an inner part of her left leg. The modelis very nicely detailed (with lots of raised details tomake painting them easy) but not so over the top as tomake painters who are less than experts, like me, shyaway from it. There’s a lot of bare flesh on the modeland it’s nicely done without being muscle-bound. It’spart of the Neskofar army for Warlord, but could easilybe dropped into any fantasy rpg if your party is headingoff for a bit of Egyptian-inspired adventuring. Youcould use it as a replacement where you might normallyuse an ogre or hill giant.14248 Anwar, Nefsokar Srgt $11.49Warlord is one of those games that I would play just tocollect the models. Ever since they started coming out, Ihave liked them, and this model is no different. Anwarcomes in a total of fourpieces. The first two piecesare his hands (and forearm)and the items they carry.His right hand carries acurved sword, while his lefthoists an interestinglyshaped shield. Both ofthese attach nicely to thetorso and are equipped withsmall pins to guide andsupport them. The thirdpiece in simply an extrasword that he carriesstrapped to his back, againthere is a small integrated pin on the sword and a matchingsocket on the back of the torso. The fourth piece isof course the rest of him which mean the rider and thehorse are all one piece. The model also comes with aplastic cavalry base and data card. This is another piecethat is clean of flash, but there are two support posts thatI cleaned off, one supporting a rear leg that is lifted offthe ground, and the other between the backwards flowingcape and the rump of the horse. The three smallerpieces also come mounted on sprues that need to betrimmed off. Like almost all Warlord models, this onehas very sharp and distinct detail, and plenty of it. I’venever really been a fan of model were the rider andmount need to be glued together, so these coming as asingle piece is another point in its favor as far as I’mconcerned. This is a great model to be leading yourNefsokar cavalry charge.14249 Atifa, Nefsokar Mage $11.49This is the first mountedNefsokar (possibly the firstWarlord model) that I’veseen where the rider andmount were not cast together.I was really startingto get spoiled. This modelis in two pieces, and as youmight guess from my openingstatement, one is therider and one is the mount.Atifa is a female mage,though you might be fooledinto thinking she was onlythe Sheik’s courtesan if itwasn’t for the staff/weaponshe holds over her head inher right hand. For some reason flash and mold linewere a little bit more prevalent on this model than otherWarlord models, but not enough to make a real issue(like I said, I was being spoiled). For the rider, there is alittle bit more work in prepping her because of a supportpost from her hip to the base of the staff, and a tab connectingher feet. The staff itself is rather delicate, so it iseasily bent, if fact you will probably have to straightensome right out of the blister. The detail is nice, though alarge portion is skin, and another large portion is simpledesert cloths. I have to say that the one odd thing I seeabout the model is that she has a fan in one hand evidentlyfanning herself, and that is one activity that justseems a bit out of place on the battlefield.14250 Ibrahim, Nefsokar Hero $11.99Ibrahim is another member of the Nefsokar elitemounted fighters and this one comes in only two pieces.He of course also comes with a cavalry base and a datacard detailing his statistics for the game of Warlord.37
