The world in which Kings of War is set had some historical thing between magic beings. As with any ancient, powerful progenitor stories; they screwed up badly. Blah blah blah. Fast forward and the Basilean folks are miserable and under attack. Then some of the surviving magic beings come along all shiny so the Basileans invent religion to ensure everyone else is miserable too.
To survive this intense bullshit a group of women retreated to remote monastic buildings. Here they went hunting, wrestled bears, tamed panthers, hit stuff with massive flails and generally enjoyed their ideal sapphic community. Every so often they'd fight alongside the Basilean armies to appease the patriarchy and all.
That might not be entirely accurate but, y'know.
I know what you are thinking. I mean I know what I'm thinking and as you are reading my thoughts become your thoughts. It's the Vulcan literature meld. Trust me on this.
We both think a Sisterhood army would be the absolute best thing ever. They can have chariots pulled by cats like Norse Goddesses. They ride Panthers. Their infantry units are buff ladies with excellent hair. They even have Gondorian Ranger types to really overplay the idea of a fast, lightly armoured force.
Not great dear reader. Not great. As early Mantic kits where lessons were still being learned the models leave a lot to be desired. There were huge gaps, the saddles and riders didn't align, the shoulder joints were tiny/didn't key well and the body proportions are all over the place. Assembly was a miserable experience and whilst I could handle a unit... The thought of an entire army requiring extensive remodeling was too much.
The plan then...
Alright. I don't want to throw loads of money at a third party to play one of Mantic's own factions. I do love the idea of said faction. With this in mind I'll set some parameters.
1) Utilise my bits box as much as possible.
2) Keep to the Sapphic theme of the faction.
3) Chariots!
4) Don't get too distracted from my Halflings.
5) All lists must have five items.
Let's do this!
