Quest n. 2 from the main game questbook is "The Rescue of Sir Ragnar" (in Italy he was named Sir Manfred instead). He is one of the bravest paladin of the Empire and has been prisoned by the army of chaos. Once you find and bring Sir Ragnar out from his cell, you have to use the Chaos Srocerer miniature to represent him.
I've always been disappointed on this but fortunately here is a cool piece sculpted by the Italian artist Marco Partenzi (aka Bombur) that solve this problem!
Bombur sculpted this figure on his own, it fits perfectly the style of original HeroQuest miniatures so it has become one of the most wanted custom figure for the game.
Unfortunately only few copies were cast. Since many people were asking me to get one I asked him if it was possible to get more copies (I had six) but he replied me that he lost the master. A real pity. We hope one day he will find it somewhere and his miniature will be available again. Anyway, good job Bombur and thank you for this mini!
Can you find the intruder? |
Yes, he is... Sir Ragnar! |
WARNING - SPOILER:
Once the quest is completed, you'll be
rewarded by the Emperor with a bunch of gold coins and be proud of
yourself for the result of the mission. But later, reading the epilogue in Return of
the Witch Lord, you'll learn that Sir Ragnar has become a
traitor and voted his cause to the force of Chaos: he is infact the one
who helped Skullmar to escape from his death...
Ciao! Dove posso acquistare la miniatura di Sir Manfred? È fantastica!
ReplyDeleteHi! Where I can buy Sir Ragnar's miniature? That was great!
Ciao, scusa ma non mi è arrivata alcuna notifica del tuo commento; purtroppo questa miniatura non è in vendita. L'autore ne ha fatte stampare pochissime copie. Ho provato più volte a contattarlo ma al momento non sembra interessato a farne altre :(
