Penguinus Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 For the Battleplans 'The Relocation Orb' and 'Places of Arcane Power' heroes with artefacts of power or wizards are required/gain bonuses for being near the objective. Do you think non-wizard named characters count? on page 242 of the main rules in the Named Characters section it says that they have their own artefacts of power, so i would assume that even though you cannot assign one you choose, they still have an artefact of power on them. Is it more explicit anywhere in the rules that i've missed, or do they just not count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euphanism Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Interesting question! I would personally think that the text describing the artifacts wielded by named characters is more flavor than actual rules text. That would mean the Battleplan would require someone with a named artifact taken at army creation. However, I'm by no means a rules expert!

Skabnoze Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 It is a bit absurd to think that random Megaboss with a magic sword can capture certain objectives but Gordrakk can't. I would say that would be worth GW clarifying in an errata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Misfire Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Sorry dude, Ghal-Maraz clearly isn't up to snuff. The Mirrorshields apparently given out to every stardrake on hatching day are good to go though. ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan.Ford Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 There is an realm item that turns off all artefacts of power, so does It not work against Nagash's items and other named characters!!! Good spot needs looking at by GW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdkingdan Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Was this ever resolved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michu Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 It seemed to me that GW said that named characters doesn't count as having Artefacts of Power, but I can't find it in the errata or designer's commentary, so maybe I misremembered something. Ok, I found it here: https://whc-cdn.games-workshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/age_of_sigmar_core_rules_designers_commentary_Basesizes_en.pdf Q: Is a named character assumed to have an artefact of power for any rules purposes? A: No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
