They’re in your head now — the Hive Mind Cadre is now available

Mind-bending your enemies never looked so cool.
The Hive Mind Cadre has officially arrived, operating far beyond the reach of conventional military forces, the Hive Mind Cadre is a chilling extension of the Cephalyx psychic hegemony.
This self-contained 30-point Command Cadre is ideal for small-scale engagements or as a scalpel-force in larger battles — and it's fully compatible with both the Dark Operations and Cryx Necrofactorium armies.
Every model comes in highly detailed resin, ready for assembly, painting, and unleashing upon your enemies.
The hive has thoughts. You don’t need yours.
At the centre of the hive is Exulon Kythos, a warcaster with an unsettling presence and a mind wired to every monstrosity and drudge in his force. He’s not yelling commands — he’s thinking them, and they’re obeying with unnerving synchronicity.
Science doesn’t ask “should we?”
The Cephalyx don’t do restraint. They do precision. They do flesh and steel and echoing screams through psychic corridors.
Enter Silexus Xiphus, a living scalpel with a brain tuned for battlefield control — and Akulon Thaemestra, your backline arcane butcher who carves support and terror in equal measure.
Then there’s the Malfessor, a monstrosity that doesn’t just smash — it disables, entangles, and dismembers with engineered cruelty. It’s basically a walking thesis on overkill.
Submit. Serve. Assimilate.
The Hive Mind Cadre is available now. Bring the hive’s cold intelligence to your Iron Kingdoms tabletop and see what it means to command a truly connected force.
More monstrosities for your hive
Looking to add even more twisted muscle to your Dark Operations force? The Subduer, Wrecker, and Warden — three brutal Cephalyx Monstrosities — are available to pre-order now on the Steamforged store.
Each one brings its own brand of psychic-powered devastation to the table, whether you're locking enemies down, smashing them apart, or enduring the fight with terrifying resilience.
Prefer to print your own? You can also grab all three as STLs on our MyMiniFactory store — ideal for home printing, kitbashing, or building a second force with a personal touch.
Fully compatible with Dark Operations, they’re the perfect reinforcement for the Hive Mind Cadre — or any Dark Operations force ready to dominate the battlefield.
