Now an insight from the dreadspear regiment "Scarred To Death"
Explanations: The new Dark Elf Army Book proposes to the cute sorceresses a new access to the Lore of Life. In that Lore, one spell, Regrowth, restores slain models, albeit in a strict order (unit's champion first - see next cartoon).
On the other hand, Druchii sorceresses may get a magic item called "sacrificial dagger". This item gives them more power, but it necessitates to sacrifice some of the models in the sorceress' unit. This feared item has been nerfed compared to previous edition, and it requires now, in average, twice as many sacrifices for the same effect.
Finally, all armies have access to common magic banners. One of them, the Gleaming Pennant, raises the leadership of the unit, lowering the likelihood of a panic reaction due to too much dagger stabbing. Note that in case of a lost combat, the pennant bearer is captured and cannot ever be restored.

Command group, Gleaming pennant and Life's Regrowth spell.
The rookie discovers that no matter what, the command group is faithful to the bosses, not to the regiment.
Explanations: - Stabbing too many members of the unit may trigger a panic test. - The Gleaming Pennant allows to reroll the first failed Ld test. - If a unit loses combat, the pennant bearer is captured by the opponent, and can never be "regrown". - Regrowth begins always by the champion.

HaHa. Loving the Spear reg jokes. I had just assumed the dag sorc was from Morathi's school of svelt & played on men's blind devotion of nekid flesh. So long as she's a Life mage, she can stab me over & over.
Newbies are not only rank & files. The most educated start as officers or all kind of heroes. It is customary that they would be received by the commander of the camp himself.
Explanations: Black Dragon Egg is a magic item which, when eaten, gives a dragon breath.
Edited with a new face for the sorceress.

Once in the Boot Camp starts the harsh training. It takes weeks before a newbie can barely master the delicate skills required to handle what will be ultimately a complex killing machine.
Explanations: This is a new chariot unit, which was strangely designed with a single wheel. The chariot is provided with a built-in balista. One may wonder how the handlers manage to keep balance on the single wheel, and furthermore how they can shoot accurately. The rabbit alludes at the horses pulling the chariot. These horses were designed to have a fierce look, unfortunately resulting in rabbitlike teeth. See images on the web.

During the preparation for a major war such as the invasion of Ulthuan, talented heroes are evaluated, and the most capable leaders are promoted to the highest ranks.
Explanations: There were changes made from the previous Dark Elf Army Book to the present one. Malus was upgraded from Hero to Lord. Surprisingly, Lokhir remained a hero despite his fluff describing clearly him being a lord, while a new corsair character has been added unexpectedly to the lords. What is really strange is that the new corsair lord has awful stats, when Lokhir has outstanding ones. Noting that Lokhir is famous for his daring leap, I imagine here that it could be a rationale for not promoting him.
The promotion board is made of Malekith, Dark Elf ruler, assisted by Morathi and Hellebron, who have been at lord level for a long time.

There are three receipes for victory: Training, training, and training. The least experienced cannot even guess some of the abilities in the veteran warrior they face.
Explanations: The Rulebook provides many magic weapons. These weapons are not known by the opponent until revealed by their use. Here, a Sword of Might (+1 Strength) is not as mighty as a Giant Blade (+3).

In the training camp preparing for the invasion of Ulthuan, the rookie has the immense privilege to meet first hand with living legends.
Explanations: Tullaris Dreadbringer is one of the Dark Elf special characters. He loves to kill, hence his nickname.

The new army book blessed us with new characters, amongst which beastmasters shine. These incredible hunters live harsh lives, which make them tough. Although some unexperienced gamer might discard them too quickly, clever generals apreciate to get them on their side.
Explanations: Just an illustration of beastmaster's fluff.

A new monster has been brought up by the Druchii, coming from the oceans. It is the terror of them all when it cries out its frightening abyssal howl, something sailors have learnt to fear, for good reasons.
Explanations: The Kharibdyss is a new monster coming from the ocean. One of his characteristics is an "abyssal howl".
Lokhir has a mask displaying an octopus. I was just happy to make a relation between them.
