The Ironjawz made a dramatic entrance to the Mortal Realms in the last battle, and we are going to see what else they can achieve when a few more models are added – this time against some new additions to the Sylvaneth.


The Story So Far
Once, long ago, the island at the heart of Sorrowmere Lake in the centre of Vastclaw Valley was a place of great sanctity to the children of Alarielle. However, during the Age of Chaos, the Sylvaneth were burned alive within the toppled ruins of their shrine, leaving little but ash.

In the centuries that followed, Vastclaw Valley changed hands many times; the barbarian tribes of Lord Hakshadol held it for a while, but were butchered by the Ogors of Mawking Crackmarrow, who were in turn routed by the Ironjawz. The island, surrounded by the Sorrowmere, was highly defensible and the surrounding valley remained bountiful, ensuring someone always wanted possession of it.

The Ironjawz had been busy raising idols to Gorkamorka during the time of Alarielle’s rebirth, and they failed to notice that the Sylvaneth shrine’s realmroots were still leaking the magic of the spirit paths. In time, these grew into a new Realmgate, one the Sylvaneth discovered and were preparing to use.

At the vanguard of the Sylvaneth was Drycha Hammadreth and her Spite-Revenants and while the Ironjawz were caught by surprise, once they realised they were under attack, they were well up for a fight.

Interesting. I'm not sure how i would do with a unit that could attack my own people that much. with my luck, i'd destroy my own army in the first turns. Is that a special skill that you can choose to use, or is it a basic attack?

It is part of her ranged attack - you can choose to give her something a bit less lethal to her own side, but I thought this would be more fun!

Ah, ok! Yeah, it certainly did seem to add to the fun factor of your own game, and it fits with the character not being quite... sane, if i got that impression correct.

Thanks for answering!
