Held des Temples des Nordens

This Hero box: Temple of the North contains two Incarnates for the Griffin army.
Thurbard is the leader of this faction described in the Army Book: Temple. On foot and mounted, this exceptional commander can join any templar unit.
As for Severian, he is a templar champion who can join even the smallest companies of the Temple. He too can join any templar unit.

The story, the artifacts and special abilities of the heroes of the Temple of the North are detailed in the Army Book: Temple.

Kheris

Kheris is one of the most reliable fighters of the Scorpion. His low strategic value (135 A.P.) and the large choice of units he can join (any Rank 1 unit) allows him to tag along in any Scorpion company. Though his combat characteristics might be far from outstanding, he is still an Incarnate and therefore benefits from their amazing advantages.
Kheris reaches his full potential when he is given the Blade of Shekara, his reserved artifact. He then gains the ability to indefinitely resuscitate for free, as long as luck is on the Scorpion´s side. Never was the Scorpion given a more loyal hero!

**Jazz is for Losers**

When did they fire their painters?

**Darkness**

and sculptors

**Alpharius**

And game designers...

**fellblade**

Now, now... that cannon is a really nice sculpt. I don't care for the crew, but they are well-proportioned.
Kheris is nice too, if not exactly earth-shaking, and the Dusk Rider beastie is interesting. I am glad to see that Dirz is getting some models soon. It may cause me to start playing Confrontation occasionally, since I have collected them for years, simply to paint.

**Tacobake**

I will probably pick up some of those Dusk Riders.

**Moopy**

"Elongated" weapons can attack things 3cm away?? The French have some strange ideas about "long".

**NAVARRO**

Just plain horrible miniatures!

**Wehrkind**

The cannon is pretty neat, even if the crew is pretty meh. Kheris en masse with some conversions might make a good basis for a chaos cultist unit. (Yes, I am aware of every aspect of the previous sentance that makes it silly.)
Otherwise, I am not impressed at all. The knight is very bland, the dino-rider is mediocre and I am bored enough with the rest to have forgotten it already, which is wierd considering I have 500$+ in Rackham figures from the Warstore's sale either being made into a WHFB army, or just sitting around because they "are cool, and will be converted someday". How the mighty have fallen...
