February Preview: Skjalos Hazard Corps & Kastellite Centurii
🕑 Added 2023-01-19 16:47:08 +0000 UTCHey there all! First preview of the month, on, err... the 19th? Good job, me!
Anyway, onto the cool stuff. As part of February's release, you can look forward to an all-new heavy infantry set for the Skjalos Guard, and a huge character model to lead the Covenants of Astyri Kastellites, or just to lead a Hyperion Covenant into battle as an absolute beefcake leader.
The Skjalos Hazard Corps are, unlike the rest of their Slaughter Corps brethren, dedicated to specialised missions rather than conventional battles. Equipped with atmospherically-sealed armour, they are prepared for any environment and protected from melee, ballistic and gas assaults with reinforced armour plates and breathing tanks on their backs. Though they are seen on the battlefield on occasion, and in various assaults on perilous locations, their original purpose was specifically to be stationed around incursion gates, where they would watch, wait and lay waste to any Dæmons rising from the depths, safely contained in their armour, and equipped with heavier and more specialised weapons than the rest of the Skjalos infantry regiments.
Next up, the Kastellite Centurii - though the Kastellite ranks are filled with only the willingly converted, amongst their numbers are true devotees. Those few who truly believe in the will of Kolym Hysta and voluntarily travel to Astyri in search of the celestial intelligence are reborn as Kastellite Centurii. Uniquely free willed, these zealous patrons of Astyri are amongst the most deadly, and most dedicated, servants of Kolym Hysta. Far more cunning than their subservient counterparts, the Centurii still think like human beings, though over their hundreds of years, their cunning and malice are all that remain of their humanity, gradually becoming single-minded tyrants and agents of brutality.
Well, that's all for today! There's far more to come this month, however!

Is it possible to add a standard bearer? By the way, as I really like to add unmasked heads or modified heads, would it be possible to add an body without head?
