Teratic Cohort Quest: Pare the Flesh, Keep the Bone

November 2024·p. 98

THE SHORT VERSION

Teratic warriors feed corpses to Gnarloaks to recover clean bone for their masters. Campaign progress accumulates through battlefield destruction and injuries, culminating in an artefact from the Investitures of Control. Rewards enhance trampling, beast movement, command authority and the suppression of enemy abilities, reflecting a cohort’s work as both hunters and taskmasters.

Scenarios of the Month: Tunnels of Death

Strategic Reserves can emerge behind enemy deployments from the second round, reflecting subterranean outflanking. Holding a command centre allows units near board edges to enter the tunnels again. Conventional objective scoring sustains pressure, while thirty endgame points for retaining the command centre make home defence crucial even as reserves threaten the rear.

Cauldron of War

This multiplayer expansion supports four- or six-player teams and three- or four-player free-for-alls. It defines how allied models interact, sequences shared turns and combat, and adjusts shooting into fights between other opponents. Underdog command points and treacherous reactions encourage negotiation and opportunism, while deployment diagrams and mission-sequence changes make the format usable across different player counts.
