Anodyr Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Hi all, just wanted to ask something I'm struggling to find an answer to: Are there any commands/abilities in the Order faction warscrolls that affect units with the Order keyword? The new Orruk character has a command ability that affects Destruction, and I believe there are characters that can affect Death and Chaos keyword units in their books, but I can't find any examples in the Order book. Am I being blind? The reason for asking is that I'm looking for synergies between Seraphon and Stormcast to help my planned allied force mesh together on the table, so any suggestions are gratefully received. ? Thanks. Anodyr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarrickson Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 The Luminark and the Hurricanum are the two that immediately spring to mind referencing the 'order' key word for their buffing abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wilson Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 The Knight Azyros' 'Illuminator of the Lost' is keyword agnostic and synergises well with Bastiladons who can then rerolls 1's to hit whilst they blast away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anodyr Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 Thanks guys, that's exactly what I was hoping for. Ive got a luminark, so that could prove useful. The Azyros I had spotted, but had only considered its effect on obvious missile troops like skinks - will definitely check out the bastilodon now.

yarrickson Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 If we go 'keyword agnostic' in Order then we have a pretty good list of abilities: Gryph Hounds- Warning Cry Knight Azyros- Illuminator of the lost Protectors- Storm shield Battlemage- Lifebloom, Wildform, Light of Battle Celestial Hurricanum- portents of battle Luminark of Hysh- Aura of protection Beastmaster on Manticore- Spiteful dominance (keyword- MONSTER) Archmage- shield of Saphery Archmage on dragon- drain magic Alarielle- boon of life Loremaster of Hoeth- hand of glory Lord Kroak- impeccable foresight Skink starseer- curse of fates/cosmic herald Stardrakes- arcane lineage (keyword- WIZARD) Volkmar the grim- battle prayers Sisters of the thorn- shield of thorns So as an order player you do have access to a substantial number of buffs that can be applied across the faction. Of greatest benefit I feel are the re-roll abilities from the seraphon, and the really abusable ones like shield of thorns, where other faction specific abilities will really boost the effectiveness.

Marc Wilson Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Nice list Yarrickson! I agree on the rerolls from the Starseer, that's been pretty tasty for me - shame he's more expensive under 'Mo' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anodyr Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 Wow, thanks Yarrikson, that list is hugely useful! May need to print that and keep it within reach for list building... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobgoblinclub Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 @yarrickson that is a fantastic list! Any idea if anyone has compiled a similar list for other factions? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarrickson Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 New keyword 'order' ability from today. Excelsior Warpriest: Light of Sigmar Heals d3 wounds on keyword order stuff on a 3+. Sure a fair few order armies could use a healer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Tomlin Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Wow @yarrickson that list is great. I reckon a stickied post in each GA forum with a list like this would be super helpful. Perhaps @Ben or one of the Mods could set something up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
