Greetings wargamers,

Icarus Miniatures have another concept art preview for our upcoming sci fi skirmish wargame, the Icarus Project. This time we’re giving you a peek at the Nexus Brawler, the Nexus’ fearsome combat unit.

The Nexus Brawler

“Nexus culture is steeped in conflict. From their earliest days, the Nexus have been famed for their ability to make war. Before their first contact with the Praesidians, war was life for the Nexus. The various tribes would be battling their neighbors relentlessly, fighting over land, resources, or simply just to fight.

During times of “peace”, the Nexus sate their need for violence in vast arenas. Entrants fight one another to the death for the entertainment of their kin.

These arena fighters tend to be Nexus who are eager to earn glory in battle, or who desire the wealth that arena combat can bring.

Combatants that survive several combats are often drafted into the Nexus army as Brawlers, close combat specialists. Formed into small squads and given the most fearsome combat weaponry, Brawlers seek the strongest opponents to duel, unable to shake their gladiatorial roots.

Every Nexus is better than most species in close combat, but Brawlers make a sport of it.”

Once again, the Brawler will be one of the units included in the Nexus starter set, along with the previously shown Grunt and Feral Nexus.
