 FOREWORD
A nation forged in singular devotion to Menoth, the
Protectorate of Menoth pursues an unending crusade
against all the lesser faiths of man. Boasting ranks of elite
holy knights and disciplined Temple Flameguard, the bulk
of the Protectorate army is composed of masses of untrained
true believers who willingly take up arms against the
heathens and blasphemers. Guided by the unflinching hand
of Menoth’s chosen priests, the soldiers of the Protectorate
wield their faith as both weapon and shield as they seek to
carry out their god’s divine mandate.
Alongside these warriors of the faith stride hulking warjacks,
forged and consecrated by priests and artificers of the
Protectorate to be physical manifestations of the Lawgiver’s
sacred wrath. Imbued with the prayers of warpriests and
armed with terrible weapons designed to harness and
unleash Menoth’s holy flame upon their foes, these machines
are more than a match for any enemy.
Leading the armies of the Protectorate are its distinctive
warcasters, from the shining Intercessor Kreoss to the
indomitable High Executioner Servath Reznik to the deadly
Thrya, Flame of Sorrow. These paragons of the faith have
been blessed by the Creator of Man with the ability to control
warjacks. Together with a battlegroup of sanctified ’jacks,
each warcaster of the Protectorate can bring to the field the
power of a small army.
Within its pages, Forces of WARMACHINE: Protectorate
of Menoth Command gives you an extensive look at the
background of the Protectorate and access to all of its holy
warcasters and warjacks, as well as a range of units, solos,
and battle engines to support them. In addition, this volume
introduces two new warcasters—Feora, the Conquering
Flame and Sovereign Tristan Durant—and a new character
warjack, the fiery Eye of Truth.
Along with a wealth of information about specific models that
can form the cornerstone of any Protectorate army, this book
also includes the first new theme forces for the Protectorate
of Menoth. The Creator’s Might theme force marshals the
full power of the Protectorate’s warjacks into a rolling tide
of righteous flame and iron, while Guardians of the Temple
spurs the ranks of the Flameguard to take up arms and carry
out the divine will of the Lawgiver by inflicting his holy
wrath upon the non-believers.
United through faith, the true believers of the Protectorate
are ready to heed your command. Call forth the faithful and
cleanse the heresy of the Iron Kingdoms beneath a tide of
righteous flame!

 direct instructions. Obeying the will of Menoth requires
priests to interpret portents and make decisions by weighing
the facts before them against doctrine.
Still, this connection to the divine means Protectorate soldiers
have learned to trust the priesthood and other Temple leaders
implicitly. Those at the bottom of the chain of command are
accustomed to fighting in ignorance of the ultimate purposes
of their actions. Orders are not to be questioned but simply
accepted and obeyed with the same faith that assures each
Menite of the place waiting for him in the afterlife.
Although not every Menite is equally pious, in the aggregate
their beliefs bestow a degree of conviction, efficiency, and
zealous fanaticism that strengthens them through the most
difficult ordeals and setbacks. Their enemies fear this zealotry,
as other armies must rely on less certain traits like loyalty and
duty—traits sometimes bought with coin. The Protectorate
military has proven that faith has a tangible power, and there
is no army in western Immoren as singularly united.
The Sul-Menite Temple
The Protectorate of Menoth is a pure theocracy, unique among
the Iron Kingdoms. All aspects of the Protectorate are devoted
to the glorification of Menoth, the Creator of Man. Religious
and secular authority are indivisible, and all state functions
are steeped in ceremony, ancient tradition, and faith.
While Menoth is worshiped across western Immoren in every
human kingdom, not all Menites belong to the same sect. Most
Menites in Ord, Llael, Cygnar, and Khador do not acknowledge
the authority of the Protectorate’s hierarch and look instead
to their own priests. The Great Crusade is intended to rectify
this division by uniting the faithful under the dominion of the
Protectorate of Menoth, as well as to convert the large numbers
of wayward masses in these kingdoms who have forsaken
Menoth for other gods. The Protectorate is a nation at war, and
every industry is directed toward the Great Crusade. There is
no separation between the government and the military: both
are aspects of the Temple of Menoth, overseen by the clergy
and supported by much of the population.
Hierarchy of the Temple
The priesthood has a strictly defined, inflexible hierarchy
that has endured for thousands of years. All are masked
while performing their duties to reflect the unflinching and
stoic nature of their god. This also serves as a sharp division
between priest and congregation, as a priest is not allowed to
convey the emotions to which mortals are prone.
Without exception the Temple’s clergy wield more power
than priests of equivalent rank outside the Protectorate.
Regardless of their roles, even the lowest-ranking priests
embody the authority of the Temple over all aspects of
life within the Protectorate’s territories. Each step up the
Temple’s hierarchy conveys greater responsibility and power,
THE MILITARY OF THE PROTECTORATE

and this status is evident in the priest’s raiment, mask, and
staff, each an important symbol of the office. Among the
clergy are two groups whose responsibilities extend beyond
that of the normal priests—the scrutators and members of
the Reclaimant Order.
A member of the clergy begins as an initiate, and most
are trained at the Lyceum of the True Law in Imer. Upon
completing his studies, a junior priest is recognized as
a presbyter. Over time a priest may achieve the rank of
potentate, overseeing a temple or significant shrine. This
is the highest rank most priests can ever aspire to; even a
potentate who has proven to be devout and exceptionally
dedicated will be promoted higher only if a need arises to
replace a more senior priest in the Temple’s hierarchy.
Above potentates are sovereigns, influential and respected
members of the clergy with considerable autonomy. A
sovereign is responsible for potentially dozens of temples,
their potentates, and hundreds of subordinate priests. Some
sovereigns have oversight of a sizable town or even a lesser
city. It is a tremendous honor for a citizen to be addressed by
a sovereign, and few residents ever personally interact with
a priest of higher rank.
At the penultimate level of the ascending hierarchy are
the visgoths. Currently nine in number, these governing
principals of the Protectorate oversee major aspects of the
government, industry, or territorial domains. Together they
comprise the Synod, the governing body of the Protectorate
and highest advisors to the hierarch. Visgoths are appointed
by a hierarch or by a unanimous vote of the Synod. Strife
among visgoths is not uncommon, since they seldom possess
equivalent power and may have competing agendas. But in
theory all seek to glorify and serve Menoth and his Temple.
Drawn from the tradition of the ancient priest-kings, the hierarch
is a singular office of peerless authority and absolute power.
A visgoth rises to this position only when one can secure the
unanimous endorsement of the Synod and commands the total
obedience of the entire priesthood. The standards for a hierarch
are almost impossibly high: he must be a priest of superlative
faith, ambition, political acumen, and individual power.
Only the greatest, most visionary priests emerge to lead the
Protectorate to its rightful destiny. In the 127 years since the
Protectorate was founded, there have been only six hierarchs:
Sulon, Luctine, Turgis, Ravonal, Voyle, and Severius. Each
of these figures is vaunted as a paragon of the faith and
champion of the Lawgiver. Even after death, they are above
criticism and beyond rebuke.
Scrutators
Traditionally the scrutators were a caste of priests who served
as the arbiters, judges, and executioners of the Menite faith.
While they still occupy this role, their purview and authority
has expanded within the Protectorate, making them the
ruling elite of the theocracy. Scrutators are selected from the
ranks of the clergy and undergo even more extensive training
and indoctrination.
Scrutators follow their own code of behavior free from some
of the constraints of ordinary priests. Their first priority is to
protect and preserve the faith at all costs. They must sacrifice
aspects of their humanity and excise emotions such as
compassion, mercy, and forgiveness, for their office requires
them to deal harshly with enemies of the faith. Some threats
come from within, and scrutators bear the ultimate authority
to enforce Temple doctrine and the True Law. All citizens are
subject to their scrutiny, including the clergy themselves,
thus ensuring that the priests and other high-ranking officers
of the Temple do not fall prey to corruption or heresy. The
scrutators are therefore the intelligence-gathering arm of the
Temple, its internal police, and the ultimate court of law. This
is their responsibility and their burden.
Scrutators hold regular clerical ranks, which signify seniority
within the hierarchy of the Temple. In addition to their
ordinary responsibilities, they are often called upon to
undertake specific tasks, as the hierarch and visgoths rely
upon the scrutators to enact their will. Because of this unique
function of their caste and their duties, all scrutators are
treated with deference by ordinary priests.
Some scrutators bear a simple honorific within their own
ranks: those who are more experienced are referred to
as senior scrutators, and the leaders of the caste as vice
scrutators. The singular title of grand scrutator was
once held by Severius, but has not been reinstated since
his elevation to hierarch. At present there are four vice
scrutators; three of these are visgoths, and the fourth is
Vice Scrutator Vindictus, a warcaster who is in the personal
service of Hierarch Severius.
In theory the authority of a scrutator is limited by his priestly
rank; in practice, however, his words are often heeded
regardless of rank. Such is the fear and respect scrutators
command. While this power could open the caste to
corruption, senior scrutators are always vigilant for abuses
of authority committed by their subordinates. Any scrutator
who puts his own interests ahead of the Temple will be
sent to Tower Judgment to see the error of his ways, and
few return. This does not preclude conspiracies within the
scrutator caste as elements vie against one another, but given
the degree of their indoctrination and oversight such politics
almost never rise to the level of sedition. When scrutators
conspire, it is generally to outdo some other faction within
their caste to impress the hierarch or the vice scrutators.
THE MILITARY OF THE PROTECTORATE
9
 Reclaimers
Since long before the Protectorate came to be, an unusual
group of priests has stood apart from the rest—the
Reclaimers. Members of the Reclaimant Order feel a unique
calling to give up their identities and become empty vessels
to be filled by Menoth’s will. Their responsibilities relate to
the passage of Menite souls to Urcaen.
Reclaimers surrender their humanity in an even more
extreme fashion than the scrutators. Each dons an iron mask
said to be a tomb for their thoughts that allows them to hear
the voice of Menoth. They further swear a vow of absolute
silence after speaking the Oath of the Reclaimer’s Last
Breath, a promise to send the souls chosen by the Lawgiver
to Urcaen on wings of flame and ash. Reclaimers surrender
their names, divorce themselves from any contact with
family, and have no true friends, although they will work
alongside others of the Temple. They appear to be utterly
devoid of human emotion, as both a matter of discipline and
as an unavoidable consequence of their calling.
Becoming a reclaimer is not a choice, but a true divine calling.
The role requires absolute sacrifice of the self, abandonment
of the comforts of the world, and acceptance of a life of ascetic
simplicity and duty. Reclaimers can manifest at any time,
including among regular clergy, who relinquish their rank and
previous duties. All other considerations are abandoned as
the individual hearing the call seeks out the nearest member
of this order and makes himself known. The mark of this
change is obvious to any who have gone through it, and those
answering the call are recognized and initiated in ceremonies
known only to the members of the Reclaimant Order.
Because reclaimers are guided by the voice of Menoth,
they are outside the hierarchy and structure of the Temple.
Those in the order do not answer to superiors or command
subordinates as all are guided directly by the Creator, though
the former High Reclaimer, now known as the Testament
of Menoth, is venerated by most in the Protectorate as
the leader of the Reclaimant Order. The clergy does not
interfere with their work, nor are reclaimers asked to execute
additional duties, though they sometimes lend their skills to
the Protectorate’s military forces to enact Menoth’s will on
the battlefield, seeing to the needs of the slain and ensuring
souls are swiftly guided to the City of Man.
On rare occasions a reclaimer will hear the Creator’s voice
commanding him to strike down a specific mortal and
usher his soul to Urcaen. Such direct commandments are
usually interpreted as Menoth claiming a soul for his own
inscrutable reasons. Reclaimers are sometimes tasked to
reclaim the souls of the clergy or others of great faith, and
as long as they are enacting Menoth’s will, little can be done
to gainsay them. On other occasions the Creator will call for
the immediate death of an enemy of the faith, which may
require the mustering of military forces. The Testament is the
reclaimer most likely to receive such commands.
THE MILITARY OF THE PROTECTORATE
10
Reclaimers are steeped in mystery. Because they do not speak
and usually refrain from writing, communication with them
can be difficult, though some convey meaning by gesture.
There are also times when the faithful feel compelled to aid a
reclaimer for reasons they do not themselves fully understand.
In battle, reclaimers are often joined by disordered but
united mobs of the zealots who take up arms to assist them.
Reclaimers sometimes possess the ability to control warjacks
on the battlefield. How they make their instructions known is
not clear, yet their warjacks heed their voiceless commands.
Governance in the Theocracy
Just as the clergy controls the Temple of Menoth from the top
down, so too does it rule the Protectorate itself. Priests, and
scrutators in particular, have the authority to take charge of
aspects of the Protectorate government or military as they
see fit. While a town or village may have its local secular or
appointed leaders, if a ranking priest decides to intervene, he
can supersede any authority except that of a more senior priest.
As an extension of their function, scrutators are more likely
to assume control of a populace than ordinary priests. For
example, a scrutator potentate on a vital mission could enter a
Menite town and assume authority from a local priest, taking
charge of the town garrison and any other manpower he may
require. Similarly, even a low-ranking priest could enter a
fishing village and assume control over its inhabitants, most
often to enlist them in the war effort.
Office of the Hierarch
The office of the hierarch is the formalized reinstatement of
the priest-kings of old, a position of absolute power within
the Protectorate of Menoth. The hierarch is both head of
state and the highest priest of the Temple, thus combining
both secular and religious authority. While the process of
becoming a hierarch is contentious and often bloody, all
dissent ends once one is declared. The hierarch’s commands
are law, and the scrutator caste is devoted to preserving him
and removing any potential threats to his rule.
It falls to the Synod of Visgoths to handle day-to-day
governance of the Protectorate when the hierarch is occupied
elsewhere, such as while leading an army in times of war.
The hierarch relies on the scrutators to monitor the visgoths
and inform him of their actions as well as report on the state
of the Protectorate’s heartlands.
When the hierarch is away from the capital, as has been
the case for several years due to the Northern Crusade,
scrutators endeavor to keep him well informed. Because of
the distances involved, delays are unavoidable and the risk
of important information or dignitaries being intercepted is
high. The vice scrutators coordinate these missions to ensure
vital intelligence is not lost, but there is no doubt Hierarch
Severius’ direct control over the theocracy has been affected
by his absence. The Synod has stepped in to help fill this
void, increasing their relative power.
The Synod of Visgoths
The visgoths are the ranking leaders of the Temple and
serve as an advisory panel to the hierarch, entrusted with
governing different aspects of the Protectorate’s bureaucracy
in his name. All visgoths are members of the Synod.
Because the standing Synod has had very little direct
interaction with Hierarch Severius since he established Leryn
as the headquarters of the Northern Crusade, the council’s
advisory function has been essentially nullified. Since
her arrival, the Harbinger has assumed this role instead.
Nonetheless, the Synod retains control over governance in
the south, which has allowed the southern and northern
regions to operate virtually independently of one another.
The Northern Crusade still receives periodic resupply
and reinforcements from the south, but these come only
infrequently, and the Northern Crusade has taken measures
to be self-sufficient.
The areas of oversight of the current visgoths were established
by Hierarch Voyle and have remained unchanged since his
death. Some speculate that a tenth visgoth might be promoted
to govern the lands claimed by the Northern Crusade, but for
now the hierarch rules those territories personally, with the
assistance of Vice Scrutator Vindictus.

One consequence of the hierarch’s absence has been the
strengthening of the relationship between the Synod and
Feora, Protector and Priestess of the Flame. For several years
Feora has been the foremost military leader overseeing the
southern garrisons, and she has been in frequent contact
with the Synod. A number of its members have become her
close allies, and while they are careful not to openly defy the
hierarch, senior scrutators believe their loyalties may have
been compromised.
Armies of the Great
Crusade
The military of the Protectorate of Menoth is also an extension
of the Temple and its Great Crusade, its soldiers counted as
both guardians and crusaders. Each crusading army serving
this cause is composed of dedicated, well-trained warriors
drawn from numerous martial orders combined with
combatants gathered from organized militias and conscripted
zealots. As a result, the military of the Protectorate represents
a wide range of skill and discipline, from dedicated knights
who have devoted their lives to the Temple to untrained
citizens armed and sent into battle with little preparation.
The citizen-soldiers of the Temple Flameguard and the
elite warriors of the Knights Exemplar comprise the core
of the professional military. These two orders are joined by
members of the Protectorate’s smaller martial orders, which
include the Order of the Wall and the Order of the Fist. The
Protectorate is also willing to field mercenary forces that
are at least marginally respectful to the Creator of Man and
willing to be supervised by priests to ensure they perform
as required. But the bulk of their numbers arise from militia
soldiers and zealot levies armed with simple weapons from
numerous armament caches set aside for that purpose.
The call to war created a need to define a clear chain
of command among the Protectorate’s martial orders.
Traditionally, as long as the leaders of each order
demonstrated their loyalty to the Temple hierarchy, they had
autonomy over their organizations. Though some degree
of independence remains, Hierarch Voyle realized that
his nation’s ability to conduct war on a larger scale would
require the integration of the Protectorate’s various military
arms. This task of restructuring the Protectorate’s military
forces was entrusted to Severius during his tenure as grand
scrutator during Hierarch Voyle’s rule.
Knowing that reorganizing the Protectorate’s military
structure required careful attention to logistics and planning,
Severius created the office of War Counselor and appointed
Bron Scisson to the post as the senior secular officer in the
military to oversee auxiliary forces and to coordinate with
the martial orders. In 608 AR, Hierarch Severius appointed
Kreoss as his Intercessor, entrusting him with the oversight
of the military that Severius himself once possessed as grand
THE MILITARY OF THE PROTECTORATE
11
 scrutator. Kreoss is considered the supreme commander
of the Protectorate’s armies, working together with War
Counselor Scisson and answering directly to the hierarch.
While Feora, Protector and Priestess of the Flame, is technically
subordinate to Kreoss, he is often preoccupied with matters in
the north, which allows her to retain considerable autonomy
in the south. It is no secret that the hierarch favors Kreoss
over Feora, and this has created ongoing tensions that have
yet to be resolved. For the most part these leaders have been
able to put aside their individual differences in the interests
of the Great Crusade.
Military Structure
The Protectorate’s forces are organized into garrisons and
crusading armies. Garrisons include the defenders of the
Protectorate’s cities, towns, and facilities as well as its reserve
forces. The garrisons are predominantly made up of Temple
Flameguard and militia forces supported by smaller numbers
of troops from other martial orders. Crusading armies require
more integrated forces with a highly varied composition.
Crusading armies are divided into interdictions, which are
usually composed of phalanxes from a single martial order.
Phalanxes are divided into detachments that vary in size
THE MILITARY OF THE PROTECTORATE
12
depending on the martial order from which they are drawn.
Cavalry and heavy knights form the smallest phalanxes of up
to thirty knights, while infantry knights and knights errant
assemble into medium-sized phalanxes of up to fifty knights,
and the Temple Flameguard phalanxes are the largest, with
up to a hundred Flameguard each.
In some cases selected soldiers are gathered to create a mixed
interdiction to serve a specific warcaster or to fulfill a specific
mission. These special forces operate together for as long as
is required before returning to their regular duties.
Priests serve as commanders at all levels of the military.
They command troops in the field and oversee logistics and
supply lines. Experienced lay soldiers can be promoted to
positions of authority within their martial orders, but they
are expected to treat priests with respect regardless of their
rank. In situations that present an unclear chain of command,
ranking priests are obeyed before secular commanders.
The Northern Crusade
The Northern Crusade is the Protectorate’s primary crusading
army. It was sent into the war-torn lands of Llael in 606 AR
to establish a permanent Menite holding there, which it has
successfully maintained in the years since. During that time
the Northern Crusade has extended its control to much of
eastern Llael, defending its territory against both Khadoran
military forces and the undead minions of the Nightmare
Empire of Cryx.
Leryn is the headquarters for the Northern Crusade.
Its impressive battlements, self-sufficiency, and near
impregnability make it ideal for Hierarch Severius’ needs.
Further, he was able to seize Leryn without directly assaulting
its walls, taking the city intact. Though Khador plundered
some of its wealth and resources, Leryn’s industrial facilities
and defenses were left in pristine condition and ready to
be converted to facilitate the hierarch’s war efforts. Leryn’s
citizenry have learned to heed the Protectorate’s priests, and
many have converted to the Sul-Menite faith.
The Northern Crusade has been greatly reinforced since
Severius became hierarch. Many of the Protectorate’s warcasters
have joined the Northern Crusade, including the Harbinger of
Menoth, the Testament, and Intercessor Kreoss. The intercessor
oversees the day-to-day organization of the crusade and
reports directly to Hierarch Severius, who takes great interest
in its operations. Leryn’s standing garrison is commanded by
Vice Scrutator Vindictus, who, like Severius, is blessed with the
warcaster talent. The garrison supplies troops and material aid
to the Northern Crusade throughout its ongoing battles.
The Southern Garrisons
The southern garrisons include the forces stationed at Sul, Imer,
Icthier, and Tower Judgment. Though visgoths and scrutators
maintain oversight of these holdings, the military officers
who command the garrisons are drawn from among Feora’s
loyal subordinates. The Priestess of the Flame has established
a protocol whereby members of the Flameguard’s Incendium
serve as intermediaries between high-ranking priests and the
officers commanding the garrisons. These measures allow
Feora to control the flow of information and the allocation of
resources to the bulk of the Protectorate’s southern military.
Feora is able to draw upon these garrisons to form her
own armies on very short notice. However, she is careful
to maintain their essential function of defending the
Protectorate’s borders and cities. Protecting Sul and Imer, in
particular, is absolutely vital, as these are major industrial
and government centers as well as sites of holy significance.
Though their role is primarily defensive, the southern
garrisons have participated in conflicts beyond the borders
of the Protectorate in recent years. These battles were most
often covert operations undertaken by the Daughters of the
Flame under the leadership of Thyra, Flame of Sorrow as
well as other forces led by Malekus, the Burning Truth—both
operating under Feora’s orders.
The largest action undertaken by a crusading army drawn
from these garrisons was during the Second Cygnaran Civil
War. Led by Feora, this army penetrated deep into Cygnar’s
interior and occupied its southern armies while Vinter and
Leto Raelthorne contested for that nation’s throne. Feora had
entered into a temporary arrangement with Vinter in the hopes
of seeing the Morrowan faith weakened in Cygnar. While
Feora’s army achieved its objectives of cutting off the Cygnaran
railway and preventing reinforcements, Vinter failed in his bid
to seize the throne. On the orders of Intercessor Kreoss, Feora
eventually withdrew. The soldiers of this crusade returned to
their garrisons as victors, having driven the sword of the faith
deep into Cygnar, killing many unbelievers.
NAVY OF
THE PROTECTORATE
The Protectorate of Menoth is not a naval power, but it does
maintain a small number of armed vessels to defend a coastline
that stretches from Sul to Ancient Icthier. Many of these ships
are crewed by native Idrians drawn to the creed of Menoth. The
majority of the Protectorate’s ocean-faring vessels are working
ships, including a fishing fleet based in Sul. Any of these could
be rigged for battle if required, but the theocracy has largely
surrendered control of the gulf to the Cygnaran Navy. The
visgoths know they would lose in any substantial engagement
against Cygnar’s formidable Eastern Fleet.
This acknowledged weakness in the Protectorate’s defenses
has not proved to be important enough to address. Most of
the military clashes between the Protectorate and its enemies
take place on land, and the Cygnaran Navy has made no
substantial attempts to strike at the smaller settlements that
dot the Protectorate’s coastline. Cryxian vessels occasionally
raid settlements on the nation’s shores, but such incidents are
rare. The Protectorate finds it more effective to allow Cygnar’s
navy to intercept Cryxian raiders rather than expend its limited
resources toward shipbuilding. In any case, most of Sul’s docks
are well defended by imposing walls, and the capital of Imer
and its vital industry and mines are a hundred miles inland.
The most vulnerable Protectorate city is the blessed city of
Ancient Icthier, whose relative isolation has thus far preserved
it from attack.
Martial Orders
The Protectorate’s military relies heavily upon elite forces
drawn from the Menite orders allied with the Temple and its
priesthood. By tradition, the martial orders have autonomy
over their membership, and the heads of the orders answer
only the ruling priests. Upon receiving the dictates of the
hierarch and the Synod, it falls to the leadership of the order
to convey these instructions throughout the ranks.
However, forces drawn from these orders often directly
serve individual warcasters or priests and are assigned to
specific armies or the garrison of a city or town under the
authority of the priesthood. In such cases, the individual
THE MILITARY OF THE PROTECTORATE
13
 in charge conveys orders to the senior-most officer, who
then commands his subordinates. For example, a warcaster
leading an interdiction including both Knights Exemplar
and Temple Flameguard might interact primarily with the
ranking Exemplar seneschal and Flameguard captain, each
of whom would then be entrusted to handle the disposition
of their respective forces.
Temple Flameguard
Once solely charged with protecting temples and holy places,
the Flameguard has been transformed over the last generation
into the standing professional army of the Protectorate of
Menoth. With shield and smoldering spear in hand, they
march to battle in unprecedented numbers, forming the core
of the theocracy’s garrisons as well as bolstering its crusading
armies. Commanding absolute loyalty from her soldiers is
Feora, the Priestess of the Flame and head of the Incendium,
the priestly order charged with the administration and
spiritual needs of the Flameguard. The capital of Imer hosts
the Incendium’s central headquarters, but the order’s priests
operate throughout the command structure of the Flameguard.
Members of the Temple Flameguard begin as novitiates and
devote six months to initial training, during which they
rigorously drill in the use of their armor and weapons and
receive training in maneuvers and formations. Afterward they
are initiated into the Flameguard and are assigned to a garrison
or crusading force. A veteran Flameguard may be promoted to
arms master and given command of his own unit. A veteran
arms master may in turn be promoted to preceptor and given
charge of a detachment of scores of spearmen. Secular officers
seldom see promotion beyond the rank of preceptor. Next
come captains, who each command a phalanx composed of up
to a hundred soldiers. Commanders oversee large garrisons
of multiple phalanxes with thousands of Flameguard and
answer directly to the Priestess of the Flame.
The order has several branches whose members serve distinct
roles. Flameguard Cleansers are the disciplinary arm of the
Flameguard, safeguards of purity both within and beyond the
Protectorate’s boundaries. Led by Malekus, the Burning Truth
and wielding flame-spewing purifiers, the Cleansers sanctify
the heretical with gouts of purifying fire. The Daughters
of the Flame are an elite and incredibly specialized group
drawn from the widows, daughters, mothers, and sisters of
fallen Menite soldiers and were originally charged with the
covert security of Menite holy places. Over time Feora has
begun to call upon the Daughters to eliminate threats to the
Protectorate, both internal and external. The Daughters are
organized into small strike forces called hands, each led by a
veteran captain. Though the Daughters employ a number of
solo operatives, they lack any additional structure. The order
is commanded by Thyra, Flame of Sorrow, who answers
directly to Feora.
THE MILITARY OF THE PROTECTORATE
14
Incendium priests serve as the highest-ranking officers of the
Flameguard. They hold ranks identical to other priests but
are not eligible to become scrutators. Some of the hierarch’s
agents believe that members of the Incendium have become
more loyal to Feora than to him, but they have not yet acted
against these individuals.
Knights Exemplar
Devoted to carrying out the will of the scrutators, the Knights
Exemplar first came to prominence during the Thousand
Cities Era. The order, defined by its code of absolute
obedience, now comprises the preeminent warriors of the
Sul-Menite Temple. Those who weather intensive training
dedicate themselves to serve as Menoth’s living weapons
on Caen. Their sacred oaths absolve them of any harm
inflicted in the pursuance of their orders, which allows them
to serve the scrutators of the Protectorate without question.
Newly invested Exemplar Knights are honored with blessed
weapons such as ancient relic blades and sacred armor that
have been passed down through the generations. Putting
aside considerations of their pasts—including any family
ties—the brotherhood is bound by the strongest of bonds.
For a knight, the order becomes his true family.
The majority of the Exemplar knights are trained to fight on
foot, focusing on expertise with the blade. The order is quite
large, however, and has several smaller disciplines with
distinct roles, like the heavily armored Bastions, the Errants
who serve as the order’s far-reaching advance strike force, and
the vengers who serve as the Protectorate’s heavy cavalry.
Exemplar knights begin as initiates and undergo many years
of harsh training to become full knights. Veteran knights may
be promoted to sergeants and charged with leading small
detachments. The most accomplished and fanatical sergeants
rise through the ranks, first to become warders, who lead
phalanxes, then seneschals and ultimately high exemplars—
the highest rank entrusted to command large numbers of
knights, including full interdictions. The leader of the entire
order is the grand exemplar. Though Mikael Kreoss was
promoted to intercessor, he also still holds the title of grand
exemplar and these roles and duties are considered cumulative
and distinct. As grand exemplar, Kreoss oversees the knightly
order, and as intercessor he speaks with the authority of the
hierarch and can overrule leaders of other martial orders.
Order of the Fist
The Order of the Fist is a group of monastic warriors who
undergo a strenuous and extensive ascetic regimen meant
to refine their bodies and minds. They seek to internalize the
message of the True Law and to become an empty vessel for the
will of Menoth. Over the course of their training, they learn to
perform seemingly miraculous feats of strength and physical
control. Although deadly with their bare hands and feet, some
allegiants of this order employ weapons in battle as well.
Since it began, the Order of the Fist has served to maintain
order within the population of the Protectorate. With their
emphasis on unarmed fighting, and requiring no special
armor or vestments, allegiants easily blend in with the
general population. In this way they serve as an unobtrusive
secret police force in towns and cities and complement the
efforts of the scrutators in rooting out heresy and sedition.
Allegiants study the strength of stone and the fluidity of
sand until the application of deadly force becomes as natural
to them as breathing. Though belonging to a relatively new
order, allegiants consider their fighting style to be an evolution
of ancient teachings gleaned from the first city of antiquity,
drawing inspiration from some of the most ancient passages
inscribed into the walls of Ancient Icthier. They learn their
techniques at the order’s secluded monastery in the Vardhan
province. Members begin as initiates and generally endure a
decade of training and immersion in the order’s philosophies
before being recognized as allegiants. Those who become
particularly skilled may eventually become senior allegiants,
then high allegiants. The leader of the order, Grand High
Allegiant Haveron Grayden, has held his post since the order’s
inception and has worked with Garrick Voyle, the former
hierarch, in creating the martial art used by all allegiants.
Order of the Wall
The Order of the Wall is the oldest but smallest of Menite
knighthoods, an organization dedicated to preserving the
faithful from the perils found outside of civilization. Its
philosophies and fighting style are thought to embody one of
the most vital of Menoth’s earliest gifts: the Wall itself, which
stood between the light and the darkness. While battling
enemies of the faith, the Order of the Wall stands alongside
the other martial orders, but its paladins prefer to defend
the faithful rather than marching to war. However, the order
recognizes that protection sometimes requires the fire of faith to
be wielded against those who embody destruction and chaos.
Most paladins believe the order’s origins can be traced to
Valent of Thrace, the priest-king who founded Calacia in
2800 BR. Though Valent’s great wall has long since fallen to
ruin, Caspia and Sul endure, and the order considers these
cities to be their most sacred places, and the walls themselves
to be relics of the faith.
Paladins of the order have long been heroes to the common
people, seen as embodying the protective aspects of Menoth
sometimes neglected by clergy. Indeed, the order has endured
a difficult relationship with the priesthood in the Protectorate
because it is one of the few martial groups that answers to a
code not rooted in obedience to the priest caste. The scrutator
caste came to view the Knights Exemplar as more useful tools,
causing the Order of the Wall to suffer a long decline.
Relatively few young Protectorate warriors can temper their
rage with the mercy required of those who would wield
the order’s blessed Firebrand blades. Paladins prioritize
forbearance and protection of the innocent, which can put
them at odds with the scrutators. But so long as they do
not openly interfere with or defy the hierarch or his agents,
they are left to their ancient code. The order experienced a
recent revival in popularity and widespread support after
Cygnar invaded Sul in 606 AR, and efforts by the Harbinger
have ensured they will likely always have a place, even if
in small numbers.
The order has a limited rank structure. An exceptional knight
may be recognized as a high paladin, serving as a senior
officer of the order. The master of the order is the grand
paladin, who oversees its membership from Sul. The current
grand paladin is Trenton Bouridor.
Auxiliary Militia & Levies
In addition to the martial orders, nearly a third of the
Protectorate’s population is capable of being armed on short
notice and stands ready to fight as members of auxiliary
militia and levied zealots. In most cases, they are trained in
the use of simple weapons such as staves, maces, and short
swords. The most disciplined and well-trained of the militia
are the deliverers, who drill in the use of their rockets and
are prepared to stand in support of regular soldiers like the
Temple Flameguard. Zealot mobs are drawn from the most
fanatical citizens and are led by priests who inspire and
command them in battle.
Joining the auxiliary are bands of Idrians, tribal groups
dwelling throughout the Bloodstone Desert. Many Idrians
were converted to the worship of Menoth during the
reign of Hierarch Luctine. Under the hierarch’s guidance,
the Protectorate brought the fires of conversion into the
parched desert, taking in all who would accept the word
of the Lawbringer and putting many others to the torch.
While not every Idrian is a devout worshiper of the Creator
of Man, many have given up their former heretical beliefs
and have embraced the Sul-Menite religion. Many practice
a slightly modified variant of the faith, a deviation the
scrutators actively discourage but have never managed to
eradicate. Idrians often fight alongside their Sulese brethren
as irregulars and scouts. Leading their warbands are rhaz, the
foremost warriors of their tribes.
For the citizens of the Protectorate, service in a time of
crusade is compulsory, and the clergy are issued quotas
for able-bodied men and women required to fill the ranks
of the auxiliary fighting forces. Initiates of the Order of the
Fist have proven adept at rounding up and enlisting those
who have not demonstrated the devotion and piety expected
of a citizen. Nonetheless, the continual immersion of the
populace in religious doctrine makes it easy to gather large
numbers of willing zealots and soldiers of all ages and press
them into service.

THE CREATOR'S MIGHT

The word of the Creator of Man is law, and by the will of the faithful his designs are made material. The clergy of
the Protectorate march to war arrayed as an army worthy of Menoth, channeling the power of Menite relics that
predate the priest-kings while chanting prayers drawn from holy writ and ancient inscriptions. Their mighty
sanctified machines rumble across the battlefield to clash with those who would deny the glory of Menoth.
Great wheels bearing the weight of consecrated edifices grind ever onward, accompanied by the hymns of
warpriests. In righteous splendor Menoth’s most devout servants go forth to battle blessed by his might.

The soldiers of the Flameguard Temple once found their purpose in defending the sacred sites of the Protectorate,
but the turmoil of recent years has seen these former guardians forged into one of the most formidable fighting
forces of the nation. Hearing and heeding Menoth’s call to service, thousands have swelled the ranks to take up
arms and carry out the will of the Lawgiver. With the blessings of Menoth upon them, these faithful eagerly go
to war against the non-believers, unified in their unwavering support of the Great Crusade.

 WARCASTERS
OF THE PROTECTORATE
The Protectorate military possesses far greater strength than
their numbers alone might suggest, due in large part to
their success at recognizing and fostering warcaster talent.
It is no small frustration to their enemies, particularly the
Cygnarans, that this fanatical nation is able to maintain such
a strong and diverse retinue of powerful warcasters. For the
Sul-Menites this is yet another confirmation of the Creator’s
favor for the Great Crusade and the Sul-Menite faith.
Locating the Gifted
Many priests have learned to spot the warcaster talent among
the faithful and see it as a sign of their god’s intervention.
It seems likely that focused prayer and meditation among
both clergy and ranking soldiers opens their minds to the
possibility of contact with a cortex. The tremendous force of
will required of priests to channel their holy powers reinforces
this potential. Many priests, even those who do not possess
the warcaster talent, have proven adept at recognizing that
power in others before it manifests. Senior warpriests who
have accompanied warcasters in battle for many years often
develop an uncanny ability to sense latent potential.
An individual capable of warcasting is rare even among the
clergy, but the Protectorate has managed to unearth many
such precious jewels from among its population and polish
them to readiness. Had they been born in another kingdom, a
good number of these individuals may never have had their
true potential recognized. It doubtless helps that Protectorate
citizens are required to join the war effort whenever asked;
18
nearly a third of the population serves in the garrisons or
crusades, which can bring them into close contact with both
warjacks and those sensitive to the talent to control them.
The Protectorate’s final advantage in the discovery of
potential warcasters is derived from their unique culture. The
priesthood keeps itself frighteningly well informed about the
activities of the people. Indeed, no other nation of the Iron
Kingdoms polices its citizenry as closely. With supernatural
manifestations viewed as potential heresy, many parents
willingly give up a child who demonstrates unexpected
gifts. In the Protectorate there is a sharp divide in attitudes
regarding the warcaster talent—seen as a blessing—and raw
sorcery, which is considered profane. Discerning between
these two sometimes similar talents requires testing and
scrutiny, usually conducted by the scrutator caste. In the past,
most of those with the nascent potential for sorcery were put
to death. Now, those who harbor the talent for warcasting
may instead find themselves placed under the tutelage of the
masters of the Lyceum, where they are taught to use prayer
to discipline their talents.
A Caste Apart
Though the path of a warcaster comes with its own set of
challenges and responsibilities, those born with the ability
to control warjacks escape many of the hardships thrust
upon other gifted individuals living within the borders
of the Protectorate. Even though summary execution is

and large, the general populace has met this change with
enthusiasm. There are those who believe it is only right that
warcasters should rise to positions of importance, as Menoth
himself chose to bestow their unique gifts upon them. Each
is believed to possess a special destiny and to have a place
awaiting them in Urcaen in the City of Man.
Responsibilities &
Training
While they wear no shackles, warcasters of the Protectorate are
bound instead by powerful responsibilities and expectations.
Though most are grateful for the opportunity to perform the
will of the Creator of Man, not all warcasters find their path
easy to walk. Their prominent positions place tremendous
demands upon them, and the price of failure is high. Even those
among them who are priests face constraints—the life of pious
introspection or tending to a flock is not for them, for their place
is upon the field of battle leading soldiers of the faith.
Still, whereas others within the Protectorate are expected to
serve Menoth in specific capacities, warcasters are afforded
greater self-determination, provided they do not shirk their
military duties. Regardless of their personal disposition,
warcasters are expected to be leaders on the battlefield and
to use their powers as a burning brand against the heresies of
other nations. They must be able to look beyond their martial
order to the needs of the entire theocracy, to command soldiers
in battle and to answer the commands of the hierarch.
WARCASTERS OF THE PROTECTORATE
20
The development of a warcaster is as much a matter of
martial training as it is of theological indoctrination and
purification. All warcasters are taught to channel the magic
given them by the Creator, but each possesses unique
abilities and affinities. Whereas one warcaster may develop
spells that can protect others from harm or make warjacks
more efficient in battle, another might manifest the power
to destroy the enemies of the Protectorate with tempests of
all-consuming and cleansing fire.
Though warcaster talents are diverse, some affinities are
more common than others. The ability to manifest fire is
particularly prevalent, likely due to the fact that Menoth’s
Gift of Flame is ideally suited to wage war against the armies
of the heretics. Some theologians within the Protectorate
hypothesize that each warcaster represents a specific passage
or interpretation of the Canon of the True Law; others believe
that the warcaster’s own understanding of the Canon shapes
his or her manifestation of the warcaster gift.
Warcasters who manifest their ability later in life, typically
while training with one of the Protectorate’s martial orders,
usually remain with their order. Otherwise those who
were not already inducted into the military or part of the
priesthood may be assigned to a suitable order after their
talent is discovered. Receiving a fledgling warcaster into
their ranks is viewed as a great boon by most martial orders,
as it ensures they will have a powerful warrior and advocate
by their side.
Instructors in Imer and Sul stand ready to train new
warcasters in the fundamentals of this discipline as well as
general instruction in the skills and duties expected of all
Protectorate military leaders. Most major monasteries and
temples have senior warpriests capable of helping new
warcasters learn to harness their abilities and integrate them
into their fighting discipline. If a prospective warcaster
requires more specialized training after this, he is sent to
those capable of providing it. Once a junior ’caster is armed
with the fundamentals, it is customary for a senior warcaster
to be assigned to finalize his training, running him through a
difficult gauntlet to ensure he is ready for the battlefield. Each
warcaster has a different approach to this sort of training,
and some, such as High Executioner Reznik, are especially
brutal and unforgiving mentors.
Regardless of where a warcaster trains or which martial order
they associate with, each must learn how to lead mixed forces.
As a vital piece of the nation’s military might, warcasters
must be able to adapt to a wide range of situations, and their
ability to work alongside both large and small forces with a
variety of troops that have diverse combat roles is a crucial
skill. A warcaster might lead a small border patrol comprised
of Temple Flameguard, deliverers, and paladins for a stretch
of time before being trusted with a full mixed interdiction
of Flameguard, Knights Exemplar, and militia soldiers.
This need for flexibility extends to the warjacks under a
warcaster’s control. Though some warcasters favor certain
warjacks, each is expected to eventually become familiar and
proficient with a wide range of these machines. During the
final phase of training, warcasters travel to the capital of Imer
where the Vassals of Menoth and the Sul-Menite Artificers
work to familiarize them with the warjacks and weapons
they will employ in battles to come.
Each martial and spiritual order within the Temple of
Menoth’s hierarchy has its own initiation and promotion
ceremonies. A warcaster who has completed warcaster
training will be immediately elevated to a sufficient rank in
his order to command the soldiers he is expected to lead, but
only if he is thought worthy of that responsibility. Given their
unique powers and responsibilities, warcasters attain higher
ranks quickly, as long as they remain true to their order’s
code and obedient to the True Law. Several martial orders
are led by warcasters, who are in turn subordinate only to the
Synod, the hierarch, and his appointed intercessor. Indeed
the present hierarch is also a warcaster—a first in the history
of the nation. Some priests have interpreted the rise of
Hierarch Severius to this position of authority as proof that
the final crusades of their faith are upon them.
SACRED WEAPONRY
Given the standing and importance of warcasters and ruling
priests in the Protectorate’s military, it is no wonder the
weapons they carry are singularly potent implements of war.
Each of these priceless relics is more than a tool designed
to kill; it is also a work of art and a symbol of station. These
arms inspire the faithful even as they strike fear in the hearts
of the enemy.
Crafting a weapon perfectly suited to the individual fighting
style, station, and needs of each warcaster is the purview of
Visgoth Ark Razek, the overseer of the Sul-Menite Artificers.
Each weapon is as unique as the warcaster wielding it, such as
the spear Justifier borne by Grand Exemplar Kreoss or Feora’s
fire-spewing halberd, Apocalypse.
Sacred symbolism illuminates these weapons and is particularly
elaborate on the great staves wielded by the highest-ranking
priests. Every ruling priest has in his possession such a staff,
which embodies his authority. The Menofix—the symbol of
Man, Menoth’s greatest creation—is prominently displayed on
these staves and other great weapons as a reminder of the
god’s purpose, scrutiny, and wrath.

Perhaps no man so perfectly expresses the spirit of the Great
Crusade as Servath Reznik, a living weapon of his faith.
Fanatical even by the standards of the Sul-Menites, he stands
as an embodiment of absolute devotion. For Reznik the world
is a crucible of flame, and humanity stands at the precipice of
self-inflicted annihilation. And yet Reznik is no mere man. He
is a furious legacy of the ancient world, a pitiless instrument
of Menoth’s divine justice and the reckoning of heresies from
ages long past.
Reznik has served the will of the hierarchs for decades, seeking
neither glory nor recognition in his deeds. In Menoth’s name
he has slain or broken thousands, and without question he
will continue to do so as long as he draws breath.
The Great Crusade has unleashed this fury upon the inequities
of the faithless who would seek succor in science, misguided
philosophy, and the words of false prophets. He has taken it
upon himself to serve as the standard bearer of the faith, an
emissary of righteousness ready to ignite the fires of truth
across the whole of Immoren. Woe to those who would defy
the True Law!
who sought to stop their holy pilgrimage, driving into them
as a vision of flaming destruction and littering the smoking
battlefield with corpses. Behind him came the Harbinger, who
granted the miracle of life to those whose souls she perceived
would convert and therefore be worthy of another breath, a
second life. By this crusade hundreds of Umbreans joined the
Protectorate cause, and thousands of shattered unbelievers
were left to be buried.
Despite the singular purposefulness with which Reznik
conducts his duty, he awaits the day when he will be given
sanction to blaze a path of destruction through all heretics
that stretches from the world of the living to Urcaen. There he
will at last join his Creator in the City of Man and will fight
on in the War of Souls in his name.
TACTICAL TIPS
Curse – This model also gains these benefits when attacking a cursed model.
Purge the Faithless – Because the boxed model is removed from play before
being destroyed, it does not generate a soul or corpse token.

Reznik is a spirit of wrath bound to the flesh of a man.

Mounting his iron chariot like an angry god, he is a vision out
of a time when the dominion of Menite priest-kings stretched
across western Immoren and the word of Menoth was the
very fabric of civilized order. The truth of his power was seen
by all who stood in his path when he joined the Harbinger of
Menoth on an extended interdiction into Umbrey, allowing
the miracle of Menoth’s prophet to be seen by these stubborn
northmen. It was Reznik who greeted the wayward soldiers

 WARJACKS
OF THE PROTECTORATE
While the warjack has become a symbol of the Protectorate of
Menoth’s military might in the same way it is for other nations
of the Iron Kingdoms, it was not always so. In the early years
of the Protectorate, after the first Cygnaran Civil War and
the mass migration of Menites across the Black River to their
newly founded home, warjacks and all other mechanika were
viewed with contempt by the faithful. A strict interpretation
of the Sul-Menite faith’s doctrine indicated that all arcane
and mechanikal works were heretical. Those who sought
to carve a new nation from the harsh desert did so through
a combination of unshakable faith and backbreaking labor.
According to the priests, the human body was a gift from
the Creator and should be sufficient to accomplish any task.
As the budding nation worked to expand its borders and build
new towns and villages from the unforgiving environment,
it did not take long for this stance to be challenged and
eventually changed. Steam-powered ’jacks made possible
feats of construction, agriculture, and ultimately war that
would otherwise have been impossible. Two decades after
the Protectorate was created, the nation began to allow the
use of laborjacks. Steamjacks soon became a common sight in
the great city of Sul, and their strength increased the nation’s
progress exponentially. The clergy sought to reconcile their
beliefs by conducting rituals of purification over these
machines and inscribing prayers drawn from the Canon of
the True Law into their hulls. Impure they might be, but
those flaws could be cleansed.
Some clung to the older, stricter interpretations of the faith and
viewed the adoption of the machines as a slight against the
60
Creator of Man. Vehement detractors protested on the steps
of temples and preached their beliefs on street corners, some
even going so far as to sabotage steamjacks. These acts came
to a stop after Hierarch Luctine gave a direct order early in
his reign that any who committed such destruction would be
taken away by the scrutators and educated until they saw the
error of their ways. This decree, along with writs declaring
that purified steamjacks were acceptable tools and weapons of
the Temple, conclusively ended the theological debate.
Evolution of the
Warjack
Though the Protectorate of Menoth considered itself mostly
independent from Cygnar after the first Cygnaran Civil
War, the treaties ending that war contained troublesome
restrictions. The most significant of these was a prohibition
against the formation of a standing army and the manufacture
of warjacks. Some of these concessions had been made before
the Protectorate found its strength, and soon the ruling
priests discovered ways to avoid or subvert them. Such
mandates came from mortal agencies, while the priesthood
knew they must obey a higher authority; the Temple must
arm and protect itself against the unbelievers. Even then
the embers that would one day stoke the fires of the Great
Crusade had begun to kindle.
While the fielding of warjacks for defense was technically
illegal, the Sul-Menites were allowed access to laborjacks,
deemed a fundamental necessity for the industrialization of
the Protectorate. This opened the way to create weapons of
war that did not initially betray their function. For a time,
before the Protectorate developed its manufacturing capacity,
many of its earliest ’jacks were bought or donated from
elsewhere, originating either in Cygnar or Khador. In many
cases these machines were assembled in the Protectorate from
finished parts built in other kingdoms. These parts included
cortexes smuggled into the Protectorate—an especially
valued resource that the Sul-Menites would not be able to
manufacture on their own for decades.
As the Protectorate became more industrialized, it began
to produce greater numbers of laborjacks. These machines
were engineered with a dual purpose—able to perform work
but also to fight. These ’jacks were outfitted with substantial
layers of armor, their plates adorned with religious markings
but built to deflect blows. The Protectorate was able to fool
cursory inspections and pass off these machines as simple
laborjacks. Cygnaran officials who could not be fooled were
bribed with gemstones unearthed among the desert sands.
Menites worked numerous hidden forges night and day to
create weapons for the mighty iron automatons to wield
in battle when the time was right. Aspects of these early
designs, born out of necessity and secrecy, are still present in
the Protectorate’s modern warjacks.
Early Protectorate warjacks were tested not against Cygnaran
defenses but against the Idrian tribes native to the wastes of
the Bloodstone Marches. These battles were fought both to
subjugate those who had not yet converted to the worship
of the Creator and to field test new weapons away from the
prying eyes of Cygnar. The ’jacks wielded crude iron maces
and flails capable of inflicting horrendous damage despite
their rudimentary nature, but over time these weapons were
improved to utilize other technology and resources at the
Protectorate’s disposal.
A number of innovations came with the discovery and
refinement of a volatile oil into “Menoth’s Fury.” Highly
flammable, the oil proved to be abundant below the arid
sands and was viewed as a gift of the Creator. It was tapped
and refined in great quantity and soon became one of the
Protectorate’s foremost weapons. Flamethrowers armed
with the crudest Menoth’s Fury were affixed to warjacks,
though initial designs were nothing more than pipes and
ignition systems attached to simple pumps. Later versions
utilized fanning spray nozzles with refined systems to propel
the blazing fluid further, and external igniters gave way to
venting superheated heartfire directly into the fuel.
WARJACKS OF THE PROTECTORATE
61
 Other weapons, such as the inferno mace wielded by the
Crusader heavy warjacks, were likewise developed to utilize
Menoth’s Fury. The development and implementation of
these new weapons became more prevalent leading up to the
Caspia-Sul War. With the shackles of the Cygnaran mandates
thrown off after the declaration of the Great Crusade, the
Protectorate now develops such advances openly, paying no
heed to the treaties that once bound them.
The Fires of Industry
Determined to compete with nations far larger than itself,
the Protectorate has quickly built up several substantial
industrial complexes and organizations. At the center of
warjack production are two groups: the Sul-Menite Artificers
and the Vassals of Menoth.
The Sul-Menite Artificers see to the Protectorate’s war
industry, including warjack foundries and forges for weapons
and armor. Indeed, creating and arming warjacks stand
among this organization’s highest priorities. The Artificers
include thousands of individual workers, from unskilled
laborers performing simple tasks to exceptionally talented
and specialized craftsmen. Due to their substantial body of
engineering knowledge and many skilled metalworkers, the
WARJACKS OF THE PROTECTORATE
62
Artificers often consult on matters beyond their main purview,
including helping to draft plans for building new factories or
other complex structures. In the shadow of Tower Judgment
is the Factorium, a massive complex that serves as the central
compound of the Sul-Menite Artificers. The sprawling
metalworks is part temple and part war foundry, housing
dozens of forges and smelting furnaces as well as all the
apparatus required for war. Hundreds of faithful Menites labor
within, their efforts guided by priests subordinate to Visgoth
Ark Razek. The Factorium is the largest single manufacturing
complex ever constructed by the Protectorate, and its operations
are aided by smaller facilities producing machined parts in
Imer. Many of the Protectorate’s newly developed and most-
sophisticated warjacks are assembled here.
Despite the considerable skill of the artificers, their lives are
regarded as expendable when compared to the necessity of
the tasks to which they are assigned. Relentless production
schedules are the norm, and those who fall behind in their
duties suffer the lash or are wracked, their lack of faith
and conviction put on display for their fellows. It is not
uncommon for artificers to work from before sunup to after
sundown, sometimes collapsing from exhaustion or heat
stroke. Yet these artificers know the importance of their role
in the Creator’s work, gladly giving their lives in service
of Menoth as readily as soldiers of the faithful sacrifice
themselves on the field of battle.

The Vassals of Menoth were established to free the Protectorate

from reliance on smuggled or stolen foreign cortexes for
warjack production. The foundation of this order was timely
and necessary, as sources for smuggled cortexes dried up when
Khador instituted tighter controls over its military assets. The
Vassals are the only organization sanctioned to practice arcane
magic within the Protectorate, and they can wield this power
only to further the Temple’s mandate.

This tightly controlled and closely watched order exists

primarily to make cortexes for Protectorate warjacks, but it
is also involved in constructing other necessary mechanika.
The Vassals of Menoth are the arcane mechaniks of the
Protectorate and are based out of Imer in the House of Truth,
a walled complex where initiates are brought and closely
watched during training. Fully indoctrinated Vassals are
frequently sent elsewhere; common destinations include the
city of Leryn, where they join the Northern Crusade, and the
Factorium near Tower Judgment, where they help the Sul-
Menite Artificers produce vital weapons of war.

In recent decades the Protectorate has been able to cultivate

sufficient arcanists within its borders to fill the ranks of the
Vassals of Menoth. Prior to this, arcanists required for the
creation of warjack cortexes were abducted from neighboring
lands and forced into servitude, and occasional enslavement
of foreign arcanists persists, since such individuals can
contribute useful lore and expertise. Disreputable smugglers
visiting the black market around Deadsands Bay on the
Protectorate’s coast still engage in this arcanist slave trade,
enticing pirate crews to sell gifted captives with the promise
of coin and jewels. Members of the Synod were so intent on
the production of warjack-grade cortexes at one point that a
single arcanist would fetch slavers enough coin to feed the
entirety of a Menite village for a year.
communicated dire portents to the hierarch and the Synod
of Visgoths. By order of Hierarch Severius and under the
direction of Visgoth Ark Razek and the Sul-Menite Artificers,
the Foundry of the Sacred Flame was built east of Imer in the
span of months. Many Menites lost their lives to accidents or
exhaustion during the rush to complete the towering complex.
With fewer specialized arcane mechaniks than the larger
nations of Khador and Cygnar, the Protectorate relied upon
their unshakable faith to bestow upon them the divine
inspiration required to create a cortex suitable for a colossal.
By outfitting the colossals with reliquaries and feretories
containing the sacred remains of great Menite priests or
fragments of holy relics, the Artificers were able to channel

generation is considerably more advanced and fearsome, if
somewhat smaller in scale. Entire armies tremble at the sight
of colossals like the Judicator and Revelator.
For the Protectorate, the call to build new colossals came as
a divine imperative. Receiving a vision of these impressive
machines from the Creator of Man, the Harbinger of Menoth
fire those weapons with minimal thought while focusing its
attention on crushing foes.
Like the warjacks before them, colossals have been a vital
continuation of the Great Crusade, already proving their
worth against the faithless. Cloaked in fire and ash, the
mighty machines of the Protectorate march forward to carry
out the will of the Creator of Man. While the nation’s war
industry is limited in comparison to its foes, it is no less
capable, and every Menite pours his blood and sweat into
building machines worthy of Menoth that will bridge the gap
and see the Protectorate victorious.

 SOLDIERS
OF THE PROTECTORATE
That the Protectorate of Menoth has been able to establish
itself as one of the great military powers in western Immoren
is the result of a century of effort and dedication. Lacking the
larger populations of their rivals, the Sul-Menites compensate
with fanatical resolve. Nowhere else in the Iron Kingdoms
does such a high percentage of the population stand ready to
fight and die for their nation and their beliefs.
The Great Crusade creates a constant need for armed
combatants. The Protectorate’s fighting forces come from
diverse martial orders, each with its own role, tradition, and
hierarchy. The specializations of these orders can be combined
to allow the Protectorate to field surprisingly flexible armies
well suited to meet any enemy in the field. Such armies often
include a mix of hardened elite forces who have trained their
entire lives for battle, relatively unskilled volunteer militia
who are nonetheless armed with formidable weaponry, and
priests who tend to the spiritual well-being of the army and
provide support through powerful battle prayers.
All citizens within the Protectorate of Menoth are expected to
contribute to the nation’s military might when called upon.
Common citizens not enlisted in any of the martial orders can
be levied at a moment’s notice by local priests. A simple ringing
of bells can summon an entire village to retrieve hidden stashes
of weapons, and these same priests lead these zealots into battle.
Among the Protectorate’s citizens are thousands who enroll
in local militias, volunteering a portion of their time to more
active service. The largest such group are the deliverers,
who practice military drills to effectively use their weapons.
98
Most rank-and-file deliverers alternate between this service
and providing civilian labor for their nation. Deliverer arms
masters and other leaders are more likely to have committed
to this service as a career, giving up other pursuits to organize
and train fresh recruits.
While the military of the Protectorate relies on militias
and citizen levies for defense, such groups do not make
up the heart of its army. The Protectorate retains several
major military orders whose members dedicate their lives
to battling the faithless. The largest of these groups is the
Flameguard. These career soldiers comprise the core of the
Protectorate’s garrisons and many crusading armies.
Any citizen of the Protectorate may apply for induction into
the Flameguard, but not all are accepted. Those most likely to
be welcomed into training are healthy youths aged sixteen to
eighteen—those in their prime who are ready to be forged into
Temple defenders. All who endure the rigorous regimen serve
first among the Temple Flameguard, learning the spear and
shield. Most soldiers serve six to ten years before returning to
civilian life, released to start a family and perform other labors
for the Protectorate. The most dedicated continue in this role
until death or old age prevents them from fulfilling their duties.
The Flameguard is a large and versatile organization with
several specialized branches. Some of its soldiers who display
the proper temperaments are chosen for these more focused
roles. Those with unshakeable faith and unflinching resolve
might be appointed as Flameguard Cleansers, specializing
in applying cleansing flame to heretics both within and
outside the Protectorate. Those who show both a capacity for
leadership and the ability to channel the holy power of Menoth
might be initiated as priests of the Incendium, a branch of
the clergy dedicated to the Flameguard and connected to its
upper leadership. Fewest in number are the Daughters of
the Flame, hand-picked women selected for their drive and
aptitude for inflicting vengeance. Most Daughters have lost
family members to the Protectorate’s enemies and are willing
to sacrifice their lives to see this injustice rectified.
The most elite martial orders of the Protectorate are the
Knights Exemplar, the Order of the Fist, and the Order of the
Wall. The training and duties associated with these orders are
far more intensive, and those who enter their service commit
for a lifetime. Members are recruited and begin training
at a very young age, with initiates of the Knights Exemplar
typically joining at the age of twelve and paladins of the Order
of the Wall at age ten. There is no specific age for joining the
Order of the Fist, but many of its initiates were passed to its
monastery while still young children, including a number
of orphans who have known no other upbringing. While
some youth display an eagerness to serve their nation in this
capacity, many are turned over by parents eager to see their
children attain honorable positions and serve Menoth. The
Knights Exemplar accepts the largest number of new initiates
every year to sustain the needs of the far-flung crusades.
These elite orders shape and mold their young initiates,
transforming them into embodiments of each order’s essential
principles. The extensive martial training requires habits
and instincts that can only be drilled into them over many
years; it is rare to find a mature adult with the temperament
to complete such training later in life. Knights Exemplar
must learn to become perfectly obedient instruments of
the priesthood and the scrutator caste, unflinching in their
execution of orders. Allegiants of the Order of the Fist are
steeped in an unforgiving martial philosophy that lets them
transcend the limits of ordinary flesh and bone. Paladins
of the Order of the Wall have a unique and ancient code
of behavior based on protecting the faithful that sets them
apart from the rest of the Temple and often puts them at odds
with the ruling scrutators. For this order even more than the
others, it is a priority to forge within their recruits mental
fortitude and deeply ingrained morality, qualities equally as
vital as martial prowess.
The combined might of martial orders both new and old,
along with the masses of the faithful willing to take up arms
at a moment’s notice, has catapulted the Protectorate of
Menoth into a position of power among the Iron Kingdoms.
Guided by their faith in the Creator of Man, the armies of the
Protectorate march forth to see Menoth’s will done.

Possessing peerless proficiency in the art of obfuscation, Daughters of the Flame are
difficult to follow on the battlefield. They dart from obstacle to obstacle at blinding
speed, bending and contorting to maximize available protection and avoid the
eyes of the enemy. They are rumored to have been schooled in martial techniques
by the Order of the Fist, and in battle they are a blur of fluid motion. Weaving
through the enemy, Daughters engage in synchronized strikes, their blades cutting
through flesh and penetrating narrow spaces between plates of armor.

order, none would claim it has not been a boon to the Protectorate’s war effort. Since
the start of the Great Crusade and the subsequent Cygnaran invasion of Sul, the
Daughters have served on the battlefield alongside the Temple Flameguard and
Flameguard Cleansers. In addition to conducting precision strikes against the enemy,
Daughters also provide Protectorate field commanders with vital reconnaissance.

and their skills of cortex fabrication too valued to be given the task of repairing the
Protectorate’s warjacks. During the reign of Hierarch Voyle, the organization was
directed to instruct promising Menites in the repair and maintenance of warjacks
and military mechanika in order to provide this vital support.

These volunteers are courageous not only for their resolve in performing
battlefield repairs but also for their willingness to tamper with the impure forces
of arcane mechanika. To keep their faith strong in the face of such dangerous work,
apprentice mechaniks continue to devote a significant portion of their training
time to studying Menite scripture even as they learn their practical art. By the time
a mechanik completes his training with the vassals he is as expert in the psalms
and passages of the Canon of the True Law as he is with his spanner wrench.

A mechanik’s greatest weapon is his aptitude for keeping Protectorate warjacks

running no matter how severely they are damaged. Armed only with their tools
and their faith, vassal mechaniks follow warjacks into the thick of battle. More than
one battle has been turned in the Creator’s favor by a determined mechanik with a
spanner in hand and a prayer on his lips.

The demands of the crusades have forced the Protectorate to increase its efforts

The scrutators of the Protectorate offer the screams of heretics as sacrifice, and the
wrack is one of their favored tools for obtaining this fuel for their holy work. The
construct was once a common sight across western Immoren; when the priest-
kings battled the hordes of Molgur, they celebrated victories with row upon row of
defiant barbarians affixed to symbols of their Menite faith.
Today the wrack is once more a common sight, an instrument much valued by the
scrutators for the awe it inspires in the faithful and the fear it incites in heretics.
The recent crusades have reintroduced the wrack to the enemies of the faith as
Menite armies carry the means to both punish and terrify the unjust.
Those sentenced to the wrack spend days or weeks hanging from chains and
shrouded in a fog of incense, forced to reflect upon their sins as they cry out
through unbearable pain. Even the strongest wills quickly erode. While most are
wracked as punishment, some few seek out this suffering willingly, hoping for
absolution from the burden of their heavy souls. The sight of wracked martyrs,
glowing with divine radiance in suffering, has sometimes been sufficient to end
battles before they even begin.
Prior to the release of death, the wracked individual’s soul is redeemed whether his
contrition is forced or voluntary, and his body glows white-hot under the scrutiny
of Menoth’s gaze. The Lawgiver’s redemption cleanses the penitent, whose soul
becomes a radiant source of power for the Protectorate’s warcasters. When the
sufferer relinquishes his soul, the release of energy is consumed in an eruption of fiery
essence—yet another tangible reminder of the righteousness of Menite faith and glory.

After Golivant’s death, the Covenant was returned to Icthier in secret. Hidden for

of the crusade are spreading, however, its passages are once again being spoken
across Immoren.

Whereas the Canon of the True Law is the guide by which all Menites live, the
Covenant of Menoth is a call to war. Its holy scriptures summon powerful miracles
when read aloud in the heat of battle. The Covenant was discovered by blood, and
only by blood will its holy promise be fulfilled. It is for this reason it was delivered
to Hierarch Severius when he assumed leadership of the Northern Crusade, and it
was by its power that his voice alone was able to open the gates of Leryn.

Sul was reclaimed and the armies of the faithful marched into Caspia, Vilmon

Protectorate civilians. True to his primary duty to the Creator and not the hierarch,
he was prepared to give his life to protect the innocent—and surely would have if
not for the intervention of the Harbinger herself.

In the aftermath of that battle, Vilmon’s courage inspired not only his order but

There has never been any question in Tristan’s mind or heart of his purpose on
Caen: he was created to serve Menoth. From an early age he felt the calling to a
spiritual life, although for most of his youth he was uncertain how to answer this
imperative. Raised in a family of farmers in a small Menite community southeast
of Laedry in Llael, he was taught that simple labor was an offering to the Creator.
His father discouraged him from leaving to join the priesthood, saying that his
obligation was to his family. He accepted this edict but longed to do more. In
his own time he studied Llaelese translations of the True Law, and he frequently
sought out the local priest to clarify and discuss what he had read.
Tristan’s life was forever changed by the Khadoran invasion in early 605 AR, when
war ravaged the idyllic countryside. Thrust into the chaos that followed the initial
invasion and bereft of their home and livelihood, his family joined those fleeing
to Leryn. Rather than dwelling on his misfortunes, the young Tristan did what
he could for the other refugees. Soon he was ignoring his father’s disapproval
to preach to his countrymen despite a lack of formal training, seeking to bring
meaning to their suffering.
The arrival of the Northern Crusade forced Tristan to reevaluate all he knew and
all he was. He witnessed Grand Scrutator Severius walk through the gates of Leryn
unopposed, bolstered by his shining faith. In this Tristan finally beheld the true power
of Menoth when wielded by a resolute devotee, and his path became clear. Over the
vehement objections of his father, who insisted he was abandoning his family in their
greatest time of need, Tristan dedicated himself to the Sul-Menite faith and answered
the calling he had felt since he was a young boy. He knew to his bones that his place
was marching alongside those in service to the Northern Crusade.

The veracity of his faith was clear to the scrutators who questioned him, as was
the untapped warcaster gift that awaited within him. He was initiated into the
priesthood in Leryn and undertook an intensive regimen of combat training,
where he demonstrated both natural talent and an eagerness to learn. At this
time Tristan was quite young and far from mastery, his face bare of the mask of
authority worn by full priests and his warcaster armor an unfamiliar burden. He
was thrust onto the battlefield quickly, given the pressing needs of the crusade.
Deep down he feared he was not ready for these responsibilities, yet within him
from the beginning rested the soul of a true believer and a desire to prove himself
worthy of the power Menoth has bestowed upon him.

 PAINTING
YOUR ARMY
As a hobby miniatures game deeply rooted in lore and
character, WARMACHINE offers hundreds of distinctive and
highly detailed models designed for maximum modeling
and painting enjoyment. Each model is a canvas on which
to unleash your own creativity and imagination. You can
choose to try your hand at the tried-and-true P3 Studio
scheme, dive deeper into the Iron Kingdoms setting with an
alternate paint scheme drawn from the lore and background
of your Faction, or throw convention to the wind and create
a completely original look for your models. Whatever your
choice, few things are as rewarding as bringing your army to
life with your brush and some paints.
When painting an army, as in life, the fun truly lies in the
journey more than in the destination. And like every journey,
the road to a fully painted force begins with a crucial first
step—in this case, deciding how you want your army to look!
The following pages contain color guides and quick tips
designed to provide inspiration for your Protectorate of
Menoth painting adventure. We begin with a look at models
painted in the traditional studio scheme for the Protectorate,
that of the Sul-Menite temple. This scheme is shown
throughout the model gallery on pages 138–149. Whether or
not you decide to emulate the studio scheme, it is a great
foundation to draw from with its linen whites, deep sanguine
reds, and rich golds and bronzes.
Next we present some alternative approaches to painting
your Protectorate models. The groups that serve in the
Protectorate’s crusades are varied, from small strike forces to
larger interdictions, some marching beneath their own unique
colors. Such colors include the earthy browns of the Umber
Guard, the rich purples of the Interdiction of Judgment,
and the stark greys of the Interdiction of the Covenant. By
combining ideas from the setting, the studio scheme, and the
real world, you can easily create a unique look for your army
that still feels right at home in the Iron Kingdoms.
Finally, for those who really want to flex their creative
muscles, we present a radically different paint scheme drawn
straight from the imagination of the painter who created
it, as well as some great examples of Protectorate models
painted by the WARMACHINE and HORDES community to
inspire your own unique creations. Choosing a more original
or whimsical approach can result in a truly eye-catching
army, but such schemes also rely on careful planning and
a willingness to experiment with multiple combinations of
colors until everything has been dialed in just right to create
a balanced yet visually striking effect. When it comes to your
army’s special look, inspiration can spring from anywhere.
Regardless of which direction you decide to take in painting
your own Protectorate of Menoth force, we hope this guide
provides you with the spark needed to set your imagination
on fire as you sit down with brush in hand to create an army
as individual as you!

Painter’s Inspiration
At first glance the paint scheme for the Protectorate of
Menoth may appear to use a simple red and white palette,
reminiscent of the historical Knights Templar. Upon closer
consideration it becomes clear that the sanguine edging
creates a subtle color contrast with the Protectorate’s
white areas. In order to make the red and white contrast
well with each other, the studio chose Menoth White Base,
which has a strong yellow bias, and Sanguine Base, a red
with a strong purple bias: the result is a combination that
creates a yellow/purple contrast while still translating to
red/white and is pleasing to the eye.

For more examples of Protectorate of Menoth models with

studio paint schemes, see the gallery on pages 138–149 or
go to privateerpress.com.

PAINTING TIPS
When two or more sanguine surfaces are side by side, you can
give a couple of the sections a glaze of Red Ink. This trick shifts
the color to the warm side of the spectrum, separating it from
other sections and increasing your overall contrast. You can use
this technique with other colors such as browns, blues, and
greens by glazing with the corresponding inks.

Painter’s Inspiration
The First Phalanx of the Tenth Interdiction, known
as the Umber Guard, are veterans of many conflicts
including the Caspia-Sul war. The phalanx’s somber
garb harkens back to traditional Menite clothing and
armor from the time of Cinot and the first faithful
warriors of the age. The deep brown represents the color
of the mortar formed from the ashes of Menoth’s eternal
flame mixed with mud and clay that bound together
the tan sandstone blocks from which the first civilized
city of Icthier was built. Their chosen colors remind all
among the Umber Guard of the great hardships and
sacrifices that service to Menoth demands, as well as
the incredible things that can be accomplished by those
who faithfully serve in his name.

Painter’s Inspiration
By Bryan Maclaflin

For this scheme I was inspired by stories of knights in

shining armor, with my Temple Flameguard as those
knights. The models’ darker robes and blazing orange
highlights came from my idea of a historically grim
inquisition and the fires with which the accused were
purified. The rest of the Protectorate masses with their
abundant robes serve nicely as a foil to my shining knights.

For the crests on the Temple Flameguard units, I took

inspiration from the Roman centurions and Greek
trojans; I wanted my soldiers to resemble these fearsome
warriors. The bases of the crests are flat strips of P3
brown/aluminum putty formed onto the helm. For the
crests themselves I cut small bits of plasticard to shape,
then glued them to the putty after it was cured. I then
scratched grooves into each crest with the tip of a file to
resemble the stiff hair.

PAINTING TIPS
Simplify your painting process by drybrushing the entire model
with Cold Steel, followed by Rhulic Gold. Finish the trim areas as
normal, then go back and paint the flat panels. This method is
easier than trying to paint the trim after the panels.
