Purge the Arch-Heretic

October 2011·pp. 82–83

THE SHORT VERSION

The defender deploys around the centre and names a non-vehicle HQ model as the Arch-Heretic, while the Sisters enter from the long edges. Destroyed units score normally, but killing the leader adds a bonus that increases if flame weapons have wounded him. Leaving him alive causes an automatic Sisters defeat, while his followers gain local Fearless protection and the attackers gain Preferred Enemy against their designated quarry.

Scrolls of Binding

Three new scrolls add unmounted creatures from the Mountains of Mourn to a Storm of Magic army’s extra Monsters and Magic allowance. The introduction identifies three useful roles: dislodging fulcrum Wizards, hunting opposing monsters and compensating for a weakness in the main army. The separate entries provide profiles, prices and optional upgrades for a Thundertusk, Mournfang pack and Stonehorn.

Scroll of Binding: Thundertusk

The 190-point bound Thundertusk retains its freezing aura and mobile sphere-of-ice attack without Ogre riders. Spike Tail adds another attack and Icy Breath offers a Strength 4 breath weapon, subject to the stated restriction on combining cold attacks in one turn. The background traces its supernatural winter to long exposure to Chaos and recounts an escaped specimen from the Imperial Zoo.

Scroll of Binding: Mournfang

Packs of two to eight Mournfangs cost 50 points per beast and bring high movement, multiple attacks and D3 Impact Hits. Uniform upgrades can add Vanguard or a protective thick hide. The accompanying lore describes relentless pack hunters whose ferocity makes even enormous mountain predators avoid them, explaining their value as a direct assault unit.
