Knights of the Shield Assassin, The Silent Knife
Knights of the Shield Assassin, The Silent Knife
The sun sank below the horizon, casting long shadows across the desert. Beneath the orange glow of the dying light, a group of cloaked figures gathered, their silhouettes blending into the dunes like phantoms. At their head, the male leader of the Knights of the Shield raised his scimitar, the edge catching the last glimmer of daylight. His armour was worn but sturdy, a symbol of both his martial prowess and the shadowy power he wielded within the secretive society. He had led his group across barren wastelands, not in pursuit of conquest, but to manipulate the tides of politics and trade in distant cities. Every mission brought them closer to consolidating control, though few knew that their true master lay hidden beneath layers of deception.
Beside him, the female assassin stood in silence, her presence barely noticeable. She was the silent knife of the operation, cutting down targets with an elegance that belied the brutality of her kills. Tonight, her wrist-mounted dagger lay concealed beneath the folds of her robes, ready to strike at anyone who would threaten the Knights' clandestine objectives. Her victims never saw her coming, and their deaths ensured that the Knights' plans went uncontested.
In the distance, the crossbowmen took their positions. Crouched behind rocky outcrops and sparse vegetation, their eyes scanned the landscape for any sign of resistance. The Knights had been sent to ensure the cooperation of a nearby town, but they knew that force might be necessary. Each of them had felled countless enemies, their bolts quick and precise, ensuring that the secrets of the Knights of the Shield remained buried.
The warriors, clad in scimitars and shields, marched at the leader's command. They were the enforcers, the physical manifestation of the Knights' power. Their strength lay not only in their blades but in their unwavering loyalty to the cause. Their leader's orders were absolute, and they would cut down anyone who stood in their way, even though they remained unaware of the true source of their loyalty—Gargauth, the hidden archdevil.
Behind them all, the ogre lumbered. A hulking brute with a spiked mace large enough to shatter bones with ease, he served as the final answer to any opposition. Though simple in mind, he was deadly in his devotion, carrying out the will of the Knights with unrelenting ferocity. Tonight, they would claim what was theirs, and no one would stand in their way. The desert winds carried whispers of doom, heralding the coming storm orchestrated by forces far darker than any mortal mind could fathom.
Clad in the garb of the desert with a hidden blade poised for a swift, silent kill, the assassin moves through the night like a whisper on the wind. The wrist-mounted dagger she wields is not her only weapon, for her true strength lies in the shadows she commands and the whispers of corruption she leaves behind. A covert agent for the Knights of the Shield, her hand delivers death as deftly as it sways the powerful into obedience. Few know her face, but her actions shape the future of kingdoms.
This product contains one female Assassin from the Knights of the Shield.
STL
The STL variant of this product is supplied as repaired STL files, LYS supported files and supported STL files. Presupports are professionally done and designed to remove beautifully (provided you have dialled in your printer settings). They are guaranteed to give you one of the best printing experiences you've ever had! Are we allowed to use the term "printgasm"?! :-)
RESIN
The Resin version contains 1 high quality resin miniature, printed to 32mm scale. All support material is removed prior to shipping and the resin is fully cured to ensure that it is safe to handle. We will also supply an appropriately sized round MDF base per model. No additional cleaning is required, simply glue the model to a base using Cyanoacrylate glue (superglue) and paint it.
All models are printed to order and you will join the print queue in the order in which your order arrives with us. We can print the miniatures in 28mm scale if you wish, just please ensure that you let us know after placing the order or on your order notes when you complete your purchase.
Please note that our resin models are UV cured and prolonged exposure of the resin to sunlight will continue to cure the resin and may cause it to go brittle in time. To avoid this please paint the models as soon as you are able (this also helps you to keep your pile of shame to a minimum!). You only need to prime them to prevent the over curing.
Miniatures come with MDF bases supplied by Sarissa Precision.

Production and Shipping
Please note that all orders placed through this UK website are produced at and shipped from Lion Tower Miniatures Limited (Trading as The Lions Tower), located in Solihull, UK.
We are not currently registered for VAT so there should be none to pay on any orders whether UK or international.
Production
STL files and other digital products are already loaded into the product, and once added to your basket and paid for, will be added to your library. Please ensure that you use a registered account in order that you can come back to download the products when you need to.
All of our physical products are 3D printed to order on a first-come-first-served basis. Please allow up to 10 working days for us to process your order. During busy periods this may be a little longer but you will be kept up to date on progress.
Prints are carried out on a resin 3D printer with a <25 micron XY pixel resolution, and printed at 0.25mm layer height. This ensures the best possible quality for you.
Our resin of choice is Phrozen Aqua 4K - it is fantastic for picking up the detail on the miniatures and has enough flexibility once fully cured to be robust enough for regular handling and gaming.
The printed models are thoroughly cleaned to remove any excess resin from the surface and all support material is removed* and the model is quality inspected to ensure that it meets our high standards. They are then cured so they are safe for you to handle.
Some of our models may be supplied in multiple parts, and all are supplied with a separate base. Simply test fit the parts dry so that you know how the model assembles, and then use superglue to fix the components together. After holding the parts together for a few seconds, the glue should have cured and the parts will be fixed securely.
The resin we use for 3D printing is UV curing, so exposure to UV light is what turns it from a liquid into a solid. We supply the models perfectly cured and cleaned, ready to paint and game with. Exposure to sunlight may continue to cure the resin resulting in a more brittle finish. To preserve the flexibility of the models, please paint them as soon as possible - even a simple coat of primer is enough to block the sunlight and prevent excess curing.
*There may be some fine micro supports around the miniature but these can be quickly and easily removed using a scalpel or hobby knife.
