Reveal hidden contents It's revealed that she was never made a vampire, but that Nagash being resurrected as an Incarnate had caused her to become the reincarnation of/new elven goddess of death. Eldyra and the von Carstiens only thought she was a vampire long enough for Lileath to turn up and reveal this. Reveal hidden contents Grungni's beard I hate elves. 😣 Still means that some of those who would be in the best position to know thought elven vampires entirely possible.

alghero81 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 In a White Dwarf they specified that dwarfs are too stubborn to be resurrected as dead except in the rarest occasions. On the other hand they did specify that a necromancer can use bones and soups and shape them in whichever form they think it’s more appropriate, hence the Skaven like Glaivewraith Stalkers. So I guess if a necromancer starts thinking about undead fish-men we could have them 😂😂😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmac Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Hah, a Grand alliance of Deepkin, KO and Fyreslayers, with some Stormcast support? There's all my painted Order armies right there (Well, KO are WIP, but still) I may actually be able to play this campaign. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chikout Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Unlike Fyreslayers, I'm not sure how FEC became a mercenary army. Regardless of how powerful they are in the game, it doesn't seem to fit the lore. Did I miss something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The leaders are sentient right? So probably negotiate the deals and the knights/ peasants blindly follow. ALSO NEW LEGION OF NAGASH AWW YEAH! Quote Or perhaps you’ll field the Legion of Grief – a new Legion of Nagash led by Lady Olynder herself who allow you to combine the terrifying might of the Nighthaunt’s full roster with Bravery-manipulating game mechanics, gravesites and more… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Explorator Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 According to the unboxing, Forbidden Power introduces the Legion of Grief lead by Olynder as new Legion of Nagash. So we can likely put the idea that a future Legions of Nagash book completely divides LoN and Nighthaunt to rest. Also the wording is that the new terrain piece is "available to any army", so I might not have been of-base that it is army deployed terrain like the faction specific terrain pieces. Also interesting to see the Excelsior warpriest in the mix of the Order campaign faction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a rumour that it's a series of battalions with specific unit combinations and rules If that's true, it could be easily balanced for Matched Play with proper point costs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Just note the two "armies" in the Forbidden Powers book read like they are rather silly for a single person to build toward; they are really aimed at getting a group of players together pooling parts of their armies to form two big armies for a game. Hence why each one has several factions within it. It's neat, but at the same time doesn't really offer much for most two player match-ups and nothing at all for chaos and destruction players; which is a bit odd; you'd tihnk they'd throw two armies in for them at least. But its just an army setup so its nothing huge and its just in the nature of good fun. Mercenaries sounds like its lmited to Flesheaters and Fyreslayesr only, I wonder if both were selling taht poorly that GW is pushing them a bit harder than other armies; then again they are two armies with some of the smallest rosters of models.

Beliman Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I really hope to see the mercenary system expanded with new regiments (not just fyreslayers and FEC, maybe some Ogors, Orruks and Free People too). I can't wait to see how you can build an army of Lethisian Defenders, and Legion of Grieff sounds awesome. New scenary for everybody seems right for armies without one, but I'm not sure that I want that. New Endless Spells is allways good (btw, I play without preists and wizzards, so it's not something I'm looking for too). My only question, how many of this things will be relevant for matched play?

El Syf Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Legion Of Grief seems pretty ballzy; gives nighthaunt gravesites and god knows what else. Hurrah?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 My guess is that: 1) The two new "armies" are going to be optional builds for a set map and thus very focused on just the story that goes with the boxed set 2) The new endless spells will enter matched play as standard 3) The new terrain item will enter matched play as normal, but will also double as just bieng used as terrain by players too. 4) The mercenaries system will wobble around some with some groups using it all the time and others not but I'd err that the matched play scene (at tourney level) will see it more optional/left out than used. That's just my gut feeling on the matter, but it depends how the mercenaries are different to allies; if they are just identical to allies and their restrictions it might enter general use since its only limited to two armies.
