More updates, I've decided to split the campaign pack into two eras. The first of these, Dawn of Hope , covers the time from Aenarion recieving the blessing of Asuryan to the death of the Everqueen. The second, Desperate Times , covers the era after Aenarion drew the Sword of Khaine. As ever any fee...

Or if you just want a different rider then the new Black Dragon comes with three spare torso's (either two sorceress and one master or the other way around depending on who you put on the dragon). For the sorceress's at least you should be able to just replace Morathi's torso at the waist.

It can certainly work, I use a sorceress on dragon a lot and have great success with it. For lores shadow or dark are your best bet, shadow because it lacks magic missiles and dark because it has several spells tailored to dealing with a dragons main enemy, warmachines, and because soul stealer and ...

Exactly my thoughts :)

I'll be interested to see what you think.

In the meantime I've made a few updates (same link as before) and added in all the units required to play a Tribes of the North army.

First War Against Chaos - Now with Scenarios

Having always been interested in the First Chaos Incursion and Aenarion and Caledor's struggle to save Ulthuan I have decided to try and create a rulespack to allow this era to be brought to the tabletop. As such it is full of over the top heroes like Aenarion and Caledor and villains such as N'kari...

The skills needed for running a city and for controlling monsters aren't likely to be the same. Also being one of Malekith's advisors is a high ranking position meaning he doesn't really need the additonial rank of being Drachau. Furthermore the Malus Darkblade books shows that Malekith is perfectly...

Each squad you kill gives you a kill point. So a platoon is worth one killpoint for the command squad, one for each infantry squad (or one in total for a combined infantry squad) and then one for each support squad.

Tank squadrons count as units so its one kill point for the entire squadron

I would argue that having a big unit of executioners removes the need for ASF as you are still going to have enough bodies to inflict a lot of damage on the enemy after they have attacked.
