“Put
him down or put him out of his misery Donovan, we got places to be
man!”
The
barrel of the Valerin laser cannon on the arm of Donovan's Havelock
type 57 battlesuit glowed a dull red in the early morning light. It
had been firing almost constantly for fifteen minutes and was near
its tolerance levels. Held in the massive fist at the end of the
battlesuit's other arm a Desteria Knight hung limply the green and
yellow noblesse powered armour crushed by the pressure of the grip.
Sarj Guyan Donovan had picked the armoured man up and shook him like
a rag doll.
“Sure
thing. Just getting us some payback for Ipsen Field. Where next?”
Ipsen
Field, a battle fought less than a week ago between the 503rd
Muster Regiment of the Prydian Army and the knightly retinue of Baron
Devlan Hugonan of Yordan had been a defeat for the soldiers of the
Addan. Baron Hugonan had sprung his surprise in the midst of the
fray revealing several lances of heavily armoured Desteria Knights
with firepower that the Prydian Muster had trouble stopping. By the
end of that day thousands were dead and those loyal to the throne had
been thrown back in disarray.
But
the Addan Council had a surprise of their own and had lured the
Yordist Desteria back to battle this morning. Instead of lightly
equipped Muster the knights had found waiting
for them a dozen of the brand new Havelock battlesuits piloted by the
best that the academy back on New Glastonbury could offer. Courage
had turned to terror as the Desteria realised that their own
firepower was now not top of line. The Yordists had managed to bring
down one of the battlesuits but it had cost them their lives and only
a few had escaped the trap.
“Not
so tough now are you. See how you like being the little guy for a
change.”
Donovan
tossed the Desteria Knight away like a discarded Happy Burger carton
and checked the dropping heat levels on his laser cannon. The weapon
had proved its worth melting through the titanium skin of the
noblesse armour with ease. He had not even had to use his top
mounted missile pod yet.
Off
in the distance the stomp of heavy footsteps spoke of a campaign
being lost by the League of Yordan.

high quality grey tone resin this one piece model is highly detailed
and depicts a Havelock Battlesuit destroyed in combat. Against the
Marcher Barons or the Khanate Empire who knows either way it lays
upon its back, cockpit smashed and arm severed amid the torn metal
and displaced soil of the battlefield. Useful as a casualty marker
in play or a scenic objective in its own right this great model is
about 40mm across at its widest point.
