Bushido - Savage Wave Oni


The Savage Wave
More additions to my Savage Wave faction for Bushido.

The legends speak of ferocious beasts terrorizing small hamlets in the dark of night, these stories are now told with added gravitas in the remote and isolated villages of Jwar. The return of the Nian is bad enough but the affinity between them and the Oni stalking the land will inevitably be a severe blow to humanity in the dark days ahead.

The Slaver is an abomination even by the standards of his Kin. His worth to the Savage Wave is unquestionable and the constant warring for control between the twin heads; Kemono and Ushi can leave opponents struggling for a strategy to deal with the brute. Kemono’s primal desire to smash his way through an enemy force is tempered by the more considered and manipulative techniques of Ushi.

Waka finds happiness in the smaller things in life. In fact nothing delights him more than lobbing his favourite toy, a huge stone Buddha head, at anyone unlucky enough to get in the way of his rampages. Those that attempt to get in close, find him just as satisfied to bring it violently, crashing down on their heads! Many foes’ last moments have been filled with the bass rumble of Waka’s chortling.

Bobata the bell ringer's awesome weapon is at the disposal of the Savage Wave. As Bobata swings the mighty bell around his head he is equally inspiring to allies as he is fear inducing to his foes.

    1. Thanks Simon. As I said above, the eye was a bit of a gamble but looks like it paid off (dont look too bad)

  3. There are a few Bushido players at the club so I have a very very vague idea about the game, but only vague! The snake people faction most appeals to me, But I have not seen these on the tabletop so they may be more suited to me. Nice work I think these are cracking!

    1. Thanks Clint, shame I am not closer as I demo Bushido for GCT Studios and would be a pleasure to take you through a game. The Ito (snakes) are a cracking faction and have a great theme with poison, however they are not a starter faction and take some learning.
