Ravaged Star: Armies of the Veil-Touched
Expand your sci-fi miniature collection with the corrupted Veil-Touched and their fervent disciples.
Ravaged Star is a new line of highly detailed sci-fi miniatures for use in your favorite tabletop games. This crowdfunding campaign is for the first faction, the Veil-Touched, and includes corrupted soldiers hellbent on destroying any and every planet within their vast reach.
Lord Davicus and his army were tasked with exploring the other side of the Veil, an enigmatic shimmering wall on the edge of the known universe. After three weeks of communication silence, they were declared dead, and their mission shelved. Sixty years later Davicus and his men emerged from the Veil alive, but forever changed. An alien corruption pulsated within their hearts, bending their will to a new master…
Holy Freaking minis Batman! You’ve asked for it and now you’re gonna get it. Talk about value! What you see here are all the miniatures included in the War Pack. You’ll have a healthy amount of plastic to sink your hobby teeth into and paint to your heart’s content. In addition to the beautifully detailed Lord Davicus, you’re getting 12 Executioners and 12 Marauders slaying their sworn enemies. And it wouldn’t be complete without the 12 Valkyrs revving their way through shields and armour. To support this onslaught of fury, we’ve got 12 Enforcers laying down covering fire as the 6 elite Reborn make short work of any foe foolish enough to advance towards them. For $119 you’ll be hard-pressed to find this many models at this level of outstanding quality.
As if you didn’t get enough in the Veil-Touched War Pack. Oh, we’re just gettin‘ started! In the Dominiran War Pack, you’ll get Lord Davicus after he has gone through the Veil. He now wields a blade imbued with an enigmatic power. An army wouldn’t be complete without foot soldiers to fill out the ranks. You’ll receive 10 Cult of the Veil, 10 Servants of Asalia, and 10 Dominiran Unbroken models. To back them up we’ve also got 5 Goreti and 5 Vatra laying down the heat as these ladies charge into the fray. Lastly, the ground shakes as 2 huge Asalian Abominations blast their immense long-ranged weapons into the enemies of Davicus and his Veil-Touched.
Prepare for the massive might of this collection! I now introduce the Armored Carnage War Pack. You’ll receive 1 Lord Emerath ripe from the Veil. He leads the army’s tracked convoy with deadly precision. You’ll get 5 First Slayers, 5 Black’s Gavels, and 5 Veil-Touched Vukovi. To assist these armored infantry we’ve got 2 Veil-Touched Convoy VTAT “Carnage” (Veil-Touched Armored Transports). Finally, barriers crumble as 1 Blockade Breaker clears a path for the convoy to wreak havoc on the foes of the Veil-Touched.
You’ve demanded awesomeness, and we were compelled to oblige! Per your feedback and suggestions, we’ve created the Horrors of the Veil War Pack. In this demonically-infused set, you’ll get an alternate Lord Tyrach riding his Breacher. 1 Asalian Dreadterror swoops down from the air and pounds the ground with his impact attacks. In his wake, you’ll see 7 Wretched Sorrows and 7 more Wretched Spites. From the rearguard, you’ll hear 1 Asalian Devourer stomping its way through bodies and buildings alike. And lastly, to follow up this incursion of fear, Yisharra Shepherdess of the Damned personifies horror like no other being in existence.

Every backer who purchases the Veil-Touched War Pledge will get the Ascended Elite Pack absolutely free! The Veil-Touched Ascended are elite squads of soldiers who have shed their past lives in pursuit of absolute power. They are ruthless, deadly and without fear.
<< Dominiran War Pack >> Details
The mysterious corruption beyond the Veil left none of Davicus’s army unchanged, but some were affected more than others. These monstrous abominations serve as the workhouses of the Veil-Touched, using their incredible strength to wield massive weapons of war.
<< Armored Carnage War Pack >> Details
Of all the Lords that returned from the Veil, Emerath is by far the most reckless. Nothing encapsulates his command strategy better than the Blockade Breaker, a modified VTAT “Carnage” built for both speed and durability. To date, no vehicle christened with the name has ever seen a second battle. Emerath points at a target, usually a gate or wall, and the driver of the latest Blockade Breaker barrels into it. The vehicle’s wake is immediately filled with Death Chasers, Pulverizers, Eviscerators and Lord Emerath himself.
<< Horrors of The Veil War Pack >> Details
Nightmares become safe havens compared to the sound of a stomping Asalian Devourer. This siege-crawling engine of pure horror pounces indiscriminately on any who exhibit life. With its combined speed and power, there’s very little that can withstand the charge of this demonic war beast.
The armies from beyond the Veil have been designed in “heroic” 32 mm scale and will be produced in high quality PVC. These miniatures can be proxied in any wargame/boardgame you desire or just collected and/or painted to showcase your inherit good taste in tiny plastic people.
Flanked by his loyal Veil-Touched Cleavers, Lord Davicus prepares for the final assault on the high command of Rohalinth Prime. Once sworn to protect the capital and all its allied worlds, now Davicus would see the planet burn until nothing remains but ash and bone.
The Rohalin Vanguard has been stretched thin across multiple fronts for years, making the arrival of the Veil-Touched a significant breaking point for Davicus’s former comrades.
Lady Maksima traveled through the Veil under protest, believing Davicus’s quest to be a foolish use of vanguard forces. Sixty years later she returned the living embodiment of the wisdom of her apprehensions, twisted in body and mind.
While her dedication to the mission was certainly in question when the vanguard entered the Veil, Maksima’s ruthless execution of her new god’s will leaves little room for doubt concerning her loyalty.
The corruption of Davicus and the rest of the vanguard was slow, seeping into their consciousnesses over the course of decades. Feint whispers spoke to them, at first comforting and even emboldening, eventually demanded acts of utter madness.
Not everyone survived the mental and physical onslaught, but those that did were forged anew with a drastic shift in both purpose and morality.
The people of Olmios IV were simple farmers when Lady Maksima arrived on their remote planet. Through conscription, torture, and execution, the Veil-Touched forged the survivors into devout servants, desperate to please their new god.
Vallahra had never even seen a starship when the Veil-Touched arrived, her isolated innocence decimated along with her village. She lasted longer than most to Maksima’s torture, finally succumbing after weeks of excruciating pain.
The corruption that flows through the veins of the Veil-Touched has twisted their bodies and given them strength and stature well beyond the reach of normal humans.

Sind ein paar interessante Dinge dabei, nur die Panzer sind misslungen. Zum Einen zu normal und zum Anderen sind die Ketten viel zu schmal! Rein optisch und für den Antrieb völlig überfordert.
Total detailüberladen.
Die bemalhölle.
Mogelpackung: In jedem 10er Trupp sind 8 Klone.
Schade dass es nur diese Knebelpackungen gibt. Eine Auswahl an Helden, Elite und Monster hätte noch mir gegönnt.
Gut: Proportionen, Material.
Aber auf den Endpreis kommt noch MwSt und Porto. Am Ende doch lieber bei GW kaufen.
Wenn ich eine Klonarmee spielen will, spiele ich lieber Star Wars.
Die Stretchgoals hätten durch die Bank alternative Sculpts sein sollen und nicht Extra Waffen die Standardmäßig dabei sein sollten.
Selbst wenn alle diese Probleme nicht wären. Etwas weniger überladen, keine Klone, bessere Bemalung, sinnvoller modellierte Panzer…
Die Sachen könnten trotzdem nicht wirklich konkurrieren mit GWs eigenen Chaos Modellen. Alles Nurgle, Thousand Sons Marines und Rubrics, Obis, Termis, normale CSM und Charaktere sehen alle top aus aus.
Die paar Sachen die die wirklich überarbeiten müssten, etwa Raptoren, Biker, Khorne Berserker oder Emperor’s Children sind hier ja nicht mal dabei.
Also einige der Miniaturen finde ich echt nicht schlecht. Klar, überladen sind sie schon und damit nicht wirklich einfach zu bemalen, aber einige der Heldenfiguren könnte ich mir schon gut in einer Chaoshorde vorstellen.
Kaufen würde ich mir davon aber nichts, dafür ist in den jeweiligen Kisten doch zu viel Ausschuss drin – und so günstig ist es am Ende des Tages auch nicht.
Mir gefallen sie sehr. Ich hätte mir zu gegebener Maßen auch weniger Klone gewünscht aber da Ich nicht mehr als einen Trupp jeder Art für Grimdark Future brauche, passt das ganz gut.
Wie man z.B. bei dem Bemalvideo von Eons of Battle sehen kann, sind die ganzen Verzierungen der Rüstungen so gelegt/designed, dass man sie mit Trockenbürsten gut bemalen kann.
Ich mag übrigens die Panzer aber dafür die Besessenen nicht. 🙂
Für mich wirkt das alles wie ego(befriedigungs)trio von Dave.
Ich hoffe mal inständig die haben sich damit nicht zu weit aus dem fenster gelehnt…
Ach, nur weil der General dieser Armee jemand so runtergerissen ähnlich schaut 😀
Immerhin haben sie schon 1/2 Million beisammen. Fraglich ist ja nur mit wieviel sie wirklich kalkuliert haben damit sich das ganze rentiert.
2022 und ein Miniaturenkickstarter ohne .STL-Dateien.
Nö. Das ist so 2010.
Wurde ja gestern beim Livemalen schon ein wenig diskutiert. Kleinere Truppgrößen, freier konfigurierbare Pledges und im Zweifelsfall weniger Dopplungen wären absolut wünschenswert gewesen. Das hier ist mitunter schlimmer als bei WarmaHordes und schon da machen mich die Dopplungen in den Einheiten rasend…
Das mit den Dopplungen wurde wohl angegangen steht in einem Post auf Facebook, die Marauders und Executioners bekommen noch mal 2 Varianten.
