NEWS: Pre-orders for the Old Dominion and Sorcerer Kings - Para Bellum Games





Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Math Rocks, 

With us getting excited for the forthcoming release from Para Bellum Games Conquest: First Blood, City States Terataur, we wanted to share what was coming next month for Old Dominion as well as the Sorcerer Kings.  All of which are set to be released on 22nd October 2026 but available for pre-order now, here's what is to come:

To learn more about the Sorcerer Kings click here.

Old Dominion: Tainted Heralds - 
Some of the greatest Heroes and Saints of the Dominion, collectively known as Heralds, were not buried in the grand mausoleums and sepulchers of their predecessors. Their treated remains were encased in stone and metal, becoming ornate statues that provided comfort and solace to their followers long after death. Hazlia’s Fall innervated their remains, but for centuries they remained trapped in the protective casings. Only an incredibly high concentration of Hazlia’s Dark Power can grant these forms mobility, coursing through their skeletal limbs as dark flame to move their heavy structures while softening the metal. On the battlefield, once exposed to enough power, their blows are unstoppable, their flesh impervious, and their effectiveness uncontested.


Old Dominion: Fallen Angels -
The Fallen Pantheon was not composed only of divinities. Countless angels, seraphs, cherubs, thorns, powers, and principalities were incarnated to serve their will and needs. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of these were destroyed during the Fall, but a few proved more resilient. Individually named and revered, their shrines and statues became loci of power and belief, allowing them to retain a toehold in the Prime Domain after the Theomachy that culled the Pantheon immediately following the Fall. Awakened by the rituals of the ever faithful or commanded by their Fallen Divinities their heavy bodies can soar through the heavens, their memories of flight strong enough to overcome the laws of the world as they Herald the arrival of their Gods in a torrent of bloodshed and murder.



Sorcerer Kings: Eternal Destroyers - 
There are those Eternals that see perfection as the ultimate goal of all Creation. Since they are perfect, why can’t all of Creation be? They have taken upon themselves the heavy burden imposed by their perfection: removing all imperfection from the Domains so that Creation might not be sullied by their presence while making room for more of those things and creatures that they deem worthy. Over untold millennia of open conflict with everything they have become formidable warriors by necessity, as inferior creatures, unable to understand their own inequity, often resist their merciful destruction. Coupled with their incredible resilience and ability to restore themselves, they make unstoppable foes on the battlefield.



Sorcerer Kings: Eternal Ikons - 
There are few creatures as difficult to deal with as the Eternals of the Earth Domain. Possessed of an unfathomable conviction of their own perfection, these powerful elementals cannot be forced or cajoled, their innate arrogance makes them incredibly resistant to this type of overt manipulation. Their ego, though, does make them susceptible to flattery and subterfuge, allowing powerful sorcerers to lay traps for them to willingly blunder into. They are commonly used as guardians and protectors of key structures or locations simply so their summoner doesn’t have to deal with their insufferable nature. When gainsaid, insulted, or god forbid, their perfect forms are damaged, they become infuriated, drawing on the very strength of the earth to renew their form and crush their foes.



Sorcerer Kings 2026 Starter: One Player Starter Set
Having unlocked the Elemental Domains of Primordial Balance, the sorcerous cabal that caused Hazlia’s Fall fled the destruction of Capitas across a chain of volcanic islands they raised. Forced, ultimately, to raise an entire continent from the very seafloor, the people they saved would see their Kings turn the new, barren and desolate lands into flourishing realms. Today, the Elemental Courts of Erme, Who moves the Oceans, Dyelin, Pyre of Gods and Men, Hormus, Who Lays Mountains Low, and Alessa, Weaver of Winds and Fates, thrive side by side their reflections in the Elemental Domains – while their Enclaves remain locked in a constant pursuit of knowledge, artistry, military and, above all, sorcerous might to support their masters’ purpose: absolute control over the Elements, so that they can preserve and rule Balance’s Domain – the world.



All the best,

PRE-ORDER MINIATURES: GenCon, Conquest: FIrst Blood, Last Argument of Kings and Special Offer - Para Bellum Games





We tend to keep an eye on a lot of our favourite miniature producers and this time Para Bellum Games have a huge amount of new Pre-orders that are going to be released on the 28th August (apart from the Oni Kishin which are released on 30th July), so we thought we'd go through our favourites for the new Reinforcement Sets alongside our top key picks for the heroes that they mentioned last week in their Legends of Ea who will be available individually for the first time.

and Lethal Demise Special Rules.

And for our top 3 favourite Reinforcement Sets (again in no particular order):

1)  
W’adrhŭn Reinforcement Set
For us, Cavalry is always a top choice, something that can cover ground and smash its way through the foes, what's not to love, this box contains
1x Aberration Miniature
3x Raptor Riders Miniatures
1x Thunder Rider
x3 Command Cards
x2 2 sets of 3D punch out Terrain
x1 License Card.

4x Agema (Dual Kit Option Available)
x4 Companion Cavalry
x4 Command Cards

2 sets of 3D punch out Terrain (randomly assorted)
x1 License Card.

Honourable Mentions
Finally, because we had such a hard time picking, we wanted to give a couple of honourable mentions to the article, these are Pre-Order Miniatures that didn't quite fit into the two catagories that we just fell in love with because of what they can do and because they look just too beautiful to leave out.  


Oni Kishin Raiu (Dual Kit) (Yoroni) (Released 30th July)

First Blood
Charging into the fray with the fury of a thunderstorm, the Oni Kishin Raiu are devastating shock cavalry. Equipped with impressive back banners, these mounted warriors support your forces while striking the enemy like a lightning bolt.

The Last Argument of Kings
Riding the lightning itself, the Kishin Raiu descend upon their foes, breaking formations and shattering armor in a single devastating charge. As an elite Shock Cavalry Regiment, the Kishin Raiu specialize in smashing highly disciplined infantry formations and crushing even the toughest armored opponents.


Founder’s Exclusive “Kerveros” (Old Dominion)
“A Mounted Strategos is the epitome of this ancient warrior code, a paragon of a bygone age mounted on his ritual companion, whose faded glory and tattered panoply cannot dim the blazing intellect and sheer will that smolder within this faded vessel.”

This three headed monster is a numbered edition of 1099, bringing the Roman Undead “to life” in a completely new three-way. An amazing model for painting and play as a Mounted Strategos.

This was picked purely for the beauty of the sculpt, we can't wait to learn what it does on the battlefield

GENCON 2026
We hope you've enjoyed looking at these as much as we have and if you happen to be at GenCon, if you nip along to booth 3031 you can get to see some of these mini's with your own eyes as well as getting the chance to enjoy learning how to play Conquest: Last Argument of Kings or Conquest 2: First Blood.

First Blood Warband Offer!
Para Bellum Games are offering two First Blood Warbands of your choice for just $124.99 / €109.99 which allows you to build your own perfect Two Player Starter with the factions you really want!  Here is the direct link to the offer on their website for you to use.


All the best,
