Cain in miniature

Ciaphas Cain, hero of the Imperium, now has a tabletop miniature. The star of many books written over the past …checks notes.. twenty years?!!? I am old. Anyway, if you haven’t read the Ciaphas Cain novels I would recommend them. They manage to be accessible to both newcomers to the 40K universe and experienced players and lore enthusiasts.

The miniature featured Cain in a suitably heroic pose, along with his faithful, malodorous sidekick Jurgen.

As a fan of Warhammer 40,000 and Horus Heresy novels, I always enjoy when a character makes the leap to the tabletop. You can read more on this release at Warhammer Community.

Speaking of reading, if you haven’t read any Ciaphas Cain novels as yet, pick up the Ciaphas Cain: Hero of the Imperium omnibus. You can thank me later.

Imperial Guard Meat Monday special: Ferik Jurgen.

Because I made the Luggage/Jurgen-meme. Here's the stinky boy himself. Cain's fragrant aide. His charming chauffeur. He would make fast friends with Plague Marines.

When Discworld meets Warhammer!

I am not saying, Ciaphas Cain is sharing a lot of personal traits with Rincewind, but there are similarities. Like the length they go to, to avoid heroism.
