White lions of Chrace

 

Working on the high elves it's time for the first elite regiment, the valiant woodsmen of the realm of Chrace, who armed with great axes and dressed with the pelt of giant lions defend the Phoenix King and act as his emissaries and agents all over Ulthuan
The unit is made up of 6th edition models with the 7th edition Korhil as champion
The flag was taken from the uniforms and heraldry book tweaking it a bit with photoshop

Not one of the most competitive units in the book (they strike last) but splendid looking nonetheless

Arac attack

 

Listen well ye faithful to the tale I shall tell about blessed Klovis, paragon of crusaders, and how he delivered the people of Sump City from a dark horror crawled from darkest nightmare.
For many a cicle had the revered Redeemer led us in the cleansing of that festering pit of scum and villainy with flame and sword, and by the grace of the Emperor many were the victories won by the redemptionist crusade over heretics and foul vermin alike
Our control over Sump City was almost complete when a great outcry rose from the Emperor-fearing folk that inhabited its slums and factories...

A vast bank of fog had risen from the Sump, covering the advance of a veritable army of spiders led by  a horrid monster we believed defeated months ago: a gargantuan female spider of prodigious size and malign intent; come to take revenge for those of her brood fallen to the harpoons and guns of the city
Brave Klovis was first to the docks to confront the mutant foe, joined by the ragtag bands of heretics that infested the town with their loathsome presence 
The miserly merchants, holding the settlement zones were first to feel the spiders' sting, mercenaries and gladiatrixes fighting hand in had with a foe no less repugnant than themselves

A tide of the creatures also assaulted our positions, only to be met by a wall of holy fire and divine wrath that saw the vile monsters brought low before the might of the faithful

But it was in the center where the mutant behemoth landed, scuttling over pipes and scrap huts towards the panicked vixens
Faithless as it was, their feeble attacks rebounded from the beast's thick hide, who climbing on top of a chemical vat started to devour the scantily clad eschers, a fitting end for their deviant lives

That spinless band of cowards retreated before the monster, opening a frenzied fire with all their guns 

Not even a fickle bounty hunter could stop the beast's advance
Who jumped to the deck and started slaughtering one sinner after another

However, the Redeemer truly was the most merciful of men, who leaving a detachment to keep the vermin emerging from the sump at bay...
... joined in the fight against the eight-legged abomination, putting momentarily aside his rightful hate for the eschers to save the innocent people of Sump City.
With the arrival of Klovis the tide turned, and the combined fire form heretics and believers started to chip away at the gargantuan monstrosity
Too late for the pampered guilders however, as by the report of some survivors they were eaten to a man by the loathsome tide of vermin

Enraged by her wounds, the white mare charged the last line of defence
But with a pure roar of hate Klovis fired with the Sword of Judgement, engulfing the arachnid giant in holy flame and bringing its unholy existence to and end!
So perish all enemies of the Redemption!
