| 28mm Armies and Enemies of the Petal Throne | For those of you who may have missed our initial release in this range, the world of Tékumel is the creation of Professor Barker; a multi-faceted and mysterious extraterrestrial fantasy setting, developed over many years complete with languages and distinct cultures. Some of you may remember "The Empire of the Petal Throne”, one of the first fantasy role-playing games published by TSR in the 1970's based around this world. The races and nations of Tékumel have strong martial traditions, and the setting provides an excellent background for fantasy miniatures battlegaming. These new figures, the Legion of Sérqu, join their comrades from our first release - the First Legion of Ever-Present Glory.
To give them their full title, the Legion of Sérqu, Sword of the Empire, the 14th Imperial Heavy Infantry, are one of the oldest in Tsolyanu's Order of Battle (The Empire of the Petal Throne). Their general always takes the name "Sérqu" when he rises to command the legion, in accordance with the ancient tradition. The legion's current general is one of the Empire's finest field officers. He has been placed in command of those forces around the City of Khirgar, on Tsolyanu's Northern Border, where the Empire of the Petal Throne is being threatened by the army of Yán Kór, led by the Baron Áld.
The Legion of Sérqu are heavy infantry spearmen; the legion is currently at full strength, consisting of twenty 400-man cohorts. Eleven of the cohorts also have bows.
The Tékumel warriors have a particular style and appearance that sets these figures apart from many other fantasy genres, so here is an opportunity to raise a fantasy army that looks very different.
