The true and original inhabitants of Erin are the Fomorians, or the Fomori as they call themselves. Though other peoples would debate this claim, it is true that their remote ancestors battled the Partholan, and were perhaps created by the Ancient Craft that raised Erin from the primordial black seas. The Fomori inhabit the cold seas, and have many rocky enclaves of the coasts and roughly build stone fortifications inland; they even have a few Crystal Towers left from the times of Culach and his successors.
A Fomori is a creature of the cold waters, and though they stand from three feet to near twelve feet in height, with a normal warrior being about six foot, they all have wet, scaly and blotched leathery skins. The Sea Devils, or Helpers of the Fomori, are the smallest and weakest of their peoples, and the mighty champions of the Fomori are the largest. A typical warrior will go to battle near naked, armed with his teeth, and sharp fingers carrying perhaps an iron sword or a spear and a poorly constructed shield.
Lofty ideals form no part of the Fomori soul. They war for very simple reasons: conquest, cruelty and avarice. Their plans are evil and darkness embodied, none walk the coastal paths without one eye on the foaming waters of the cold sea.
– From Erin, the Game of Celtic Myth (2005)
The original Fomorian warriors (CM13 and CM16) in the Erin Celtic Myth range are 30-year-old classics, and have been remolded several times since. We are proud today to announce the first of many coming new Fomorian warriors! Three new 28mm metal miniatures sculpted by Sam Croes. These three have, as with every other code in the range, been added to the All of Erin bundle, which gives you everything in the range with a 5% saving built-in. The last new release of the Spring Mega Event 2025.
Spring Mega Event until 6th May at Alternative Armies. 50 new codes, blanket 20% auto off all orders, and the current new free model in every order shipped. See this article for the full details, or visit our website and browse our thousands of choices in 28mm, 15mm and 6mm, through sci-fi to fantasy and historical.
The new codes are:
CM33-01 Fomorian Warrior axe raised
CM33-02 Fomorian Warrior axe and shield
CM33-03 Fomorian Warrior two handed axe
The warriors of Fomor are bigger than Pucci, but smaller than their champions and heroes. They out-bulk a Man, but look puny next to Morc of Chicol the monster.
Every miniature in the range is a single, and alongside this we have five different warbands which give a force with a saving. A hero, champion and warriors. Choose from Fomorian (above) or Pucci, along with Sidhe, Firbolg and Milesian.
