The Benthic Covenant – Aquatic Warriors of the Stars
The Benthic Covenant is a powerful theocratic alliance of aquatic alien species, unified under the faith of Whon and led by the Quadi, a tentacled species renowned for their adaptability and leadership. Despite their shared faith and cooperative governance, the Covenant is a true alliance, with multiple species contributing their strengths to interstellar warfare.
Key Factions of the Benthic Covenant:
- Quadi – Six-limbed, color-shifting strategists who thrive in high-humidity environments. Masters of warfare, they engineered the fearsome Quadi War Machine, a towering battlefield strider that turned the tide in the Evergreen War.
- Lamnids – Hulking, immortal warriors who strike with overwhelming force. Utilizing advanced grav-tech insertion tactics, they embody fatalistic, battle-hardened brutality. Unlike their allies, they possess individualistic tendencies and even a sense of humor, making them the most relatable to humans.
The Evergreen War & Dominion Interest
Locked in a bitter struggle against the Aquans, a rival marine species with Dominion-tier technology, the Covenant initially saw great success with its Quadi War Machines. However, resource limitations turned the tide against them, leading to a prolonged conflict in the Rigel Sector—closely monitored by the Dominion, which has dubbed it the “Water War.”
Miniatures & Tactical Options:
- Quadi War Machine: Available in three configurations – hunting posture, striding, or hunkered for battle.
- Quadi Warriors: Highly poseable miniatures with interchangeable upper and lower bodies.
- Lamnid Raiders: Brutal shock troops with gravity-based rapid deployment tactics.
The Benthic Covenant brings tactical versatility, unique aesthetics, and a rich backstory to the tabletop. Whether you favor relentless aquatic warriors or strategic battlefield dominance, their forces offer a dynamic and immersive wargaming experience.
