All correct. No subfaction can take wraith fleet, but as a death GA army with wraith fleet will be sick! A lot more mobility for us now, but slightly risky on a 3+ to deploy them.

Dracothjay Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I'm guessing the -1 bravery mechanic stacks? also, unless we are all just guessing, I'm assuming there will be a wraithfleet firestorm box like the other force bundles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arael Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Nope the -1 ld does not stack as x faq regarding ability "If u are within etc etc" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peegee Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 On 09/10/2017 at 10:11 AM, Killax said: The second question I have is if there is any Battalion that is allowed and mixes well with this... The Battalion "Legion of Death" with the movement bonus seems to fit pretty well. The only problem is that you won't benefit from it the turn you "disembark". But the following turn you're in good position to expand far on the map, even with skellies Warriors. The Battalion is quite a tax since Grave Guards and Black Knights are not our best options. But it gives a very handy speed bonus. By the way, I wonder if you could one-drop the Battalion, seting up part of it on the table and the rest aside in the Fleet.

I should imagine so. It's not a battalion so I should assume you get to chose which units are on the pirate vessel and which units start on the ground. do we know when wraith fleet is due to drop?

No rumours anywhere on anything other than the 3 they released with the campaign pack. Someone suggested the focus on order in Firestorm was maybe due to them winning the previous campaign.

Rahr Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Why is it you cant take it as a soulblight army they even talk about it in the artikel that you could use bloodlines to make -2 to bravyer with the nercomantic bloodline. But you guys says you can only do it as GA death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tronhammer NZ Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Order got three new boxed sets because they won all three contested cities in last year's campaign. Had the other GA's won one of the cities, they would have had their own. Nice of them to include a new allegiance for each of the losers though!

Koalaninja Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Rules question. Do you have to start with 3 battleline on the board or can you start with two and bring one in from the fleet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, you just have to restrict yourself to SOULBLIGHT, DEATHRATTLE, NIGHTHAUNT, and DEATHMAGES units. It's best to conceive of the vessels they're using being just off the board edge, unless you want to do some (super cool) conversions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hulksmash Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Considering this for a norse/viking/dwarven force. It'd be nice to have another death army outside of my FEC. Anyone had any success with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried it a few times, it's a good idea (and great theme) on paper but from a tactical standpoint all of your success is based on pure chance. Will the units you want/need be able to come on this turn? Will those units that do come on get their charges off? If you don't get the dice rolls you want you can end up being left completely exposed without support, just getting completely smashed - it's definitely not for me.
