FACTIONS AND CYCLES

Spoiler Alert!

I've always enjoyed factions and cycles across generals. A fair portion of my design work has been building up various factions for generals or rounding out particular cycles that the game started or I started.

DEVIL FACTION

Spoiler Alert!

Devils have long been one of my favorite groups from dungeons and dragons. I strove to capture the feel of this group that fights against hoards of demons in the Blood War despite being drastically outnumbered.

Legion Devils
A squad of devils who fight as one, able to teleport next to their comrades and going as far to share the same pool of life. (without a card)

Barbed Devil
A devil Common Hero, sturdy to attacks and makes killing it a dangerous prospect when it is covered in deadly barbs. (untested and without a card)

Bearded Devil
Another devil Common Hero, capable of raking adjacent opponents with its beard and stabbing with its long glaive in a single turn. (untested and without a card)

Erinyes
Another Devil Common Hero, capable of firing powerful shots from range and even tying up those nearby, rendering them helpless.(untested and without a card)

Ice Devil
The real lynch pin of this diabolic faction. This uncommon hero telepathically commands the other devils to fight as a unit and is no slouch in defending itself should the enemy reach it. (untested and without a card)

Mephistopheles
This master of hellfire shows what happens when your entire side is immune to fire and watches his enemies burn in the fields. (untested and without a card)

PLANT FACTION

Spoiler Alert!

I felt that Ullar's slice of the pie was a little limited when designing and so I wanted to include a new faction for them. I built this faction around animated plants who could interact with their own Isley or VC's Eilan Sidhe.

Isely
A gnome druid hero capable of growing plants in battle and making flora lash out against her foes. (untested and without a card)

Razorthorn
A plant beast capable of eviscerating the enemy with its thorny claws. It can plant its roots into the ground to withstand attacks or seek water to regrow its body. (untested and without a card)

Aubrien Woodkin
These tenacious protectors of the forest use their numbers and defensive strength to weather any storm and outlast their enemy. (untested and without a card)

Shambling Mound
The plant's Crypt Guardian who bonds with other plants and druids. (untested and without a card)

CAVALRY SQUADS

Spoiler Alert!

Heroscape provided us with the Templar Cavalry and Grok Riders but left us stranded with mounted squads for the other Valkyrie generals. I decided to round out the faction by making cavalry squads for each of the general. They follow their predecessors in being fast, able to hit hard, and not being particularly good.

Nightmare Riders of Droatha
Valkrill undead cavalry that paralyze their enemies with a shrieking charge and explode when they are destroyed, taking out those around them. (untested and without a card)

Bladewheel Gang
Vydar's "cavalry" of a deadly gang of bikers who recklessly jump their bikes into their enemies. (untested and without a card)

Tagawa Samurai Cavalry
The cavalry for Einar, ready to charge in and skewer multiple opponents. Once there they will counterstrike those who dare fight back. (untested and without a card)

Ramriders of the Gray Mountains
Dwarven Cavalry riding upon rams, able to easily climb heights and use that to rain death upon their foes. (untested and without a card)

Centaur Axecrashers
Centaur cavalry for Ullar. They are ready to ride swiftly into battle and smash away with their heavy axes, drawing further strength from their frenzy. (untested and without a card)

BATTLE MAGES

Spoiler Alert!

This is a cycle I basically invented on the basis of only 1 hero. I always thought Sharwin Wildborn was cool but not particularly good. I ended up making a cycle full of other battle mages without synergy who were cool but not particularly good.


Ursula Firebrand
Utgar's battle mage, specializing in attacking multiple targets in melee or sending forth a powerful gout of flame to consume the target (and possibly herself). (untested and without a card)

Zeeaire
The Valkrill Battlemage who confidently strides into battle and stops the opponent from making Special Attacks with her magic. (untested and without a card)

Eobard Stormcaller
Vydar's battle mage specializing in weather magic, able to call enormous storms are strike as fast as lightning with his sword. (untested and without a card)

Titus Mindstrom
A Battle Mage capable of manipulating and dominating the minds of squads to temporarily make them turn against their own. (untested and without a card)

Orenda Tomefell
Another battle mage hero who specializes in throwing orbs of acid that explode on impact. She can also coat her hands in acid to cut past an opponent's defense or melt through objects. (untested and without a card)

Liandra Icespire
A Battle Mage hero who's magical protections make her dangerous to attack. She wields potent cold magic that can shove enemies away. (untested and without a card)

SNIPERS (FACTION)

Spoiler Alert!

This is another cycle that I've built up around a single hero. Deadeye Dan has always had a soft spot in my heart but he can be a challenge to use productively. I've built up a faction of snipers who all gain a benefit from standing still, although this time I've allowed some of them to be good. They turn into a faction of their own when used with the 72nd Spotters who help them significantly.

Zidania
An unscrupulous sniper hero from an alien planet capable of targeting unprotected areas. (untested and without a card)

72nd Spotters
Common squad that can give some reason to dust off the old Sniper Heroes. (untested and without a card)

Bravo Squad Sniper
Common Sniper hero that can either act as cheap filler or help fill an army along with the 72nd Spotters. (untested and without a card)

Ella Wok

Lt. Gill Harlow
A WWII sniper who can place his shots so they pass through one target and hit another standing next to it. (untested and without a card)

Maddox
A crossbow sniper who can unleash a barrage of electrified bolts that fly through the enemy. (untested and without a card)

MOUNTED KNIGHT HEROES (FACTION)

Spoiler Alert!

These factions and cycles can really get strangely specific. Nevertheless, on the basis of Sir Dupuis, I've begun a cycle of knight heroes. Eventually I decided to make them all mounted. The Iron Maidens of the Ozoman make them into a bit of a faction.

Iron Maidens of the Ozaman
A knight squad that bonds with knights and can make the opponent pay for hurting your army. (untested and without a card)

Sabina Arabasti
A knight riding a half dragon. She combines the fiery breath of her mount and her own spear to overwhelm the enemy. (untested and without a card)

Kaylia
This elf knight mounted on a gigantic owl can attack with her lance or spur her mount to snatch up one foe and hurl their body into another. (untested and without a card)

RANGERS AND COMPANIONS

Spoiler Alert!

I started my own cycle of rangers and companions. The rangers help their companion while the companion's spirit can live on in their ranger. The different groups can be mixed and matched for different effect.

Jorvik Grizzlehide & Fatalis
A hardened ranger who inspires his animal companion to defend him with frightening tenacity. (untested and without cards)

Salia Sungrace & Remus
A ranger and companion pairing where she pushes her companion to greater speed while he distracts their quarry. (untested and without cards)

Galindel Arrowsong and Ridgeback
An elven ranger who fights with a bow and inspires his animal companion to fight with greater tenacity. (untested and without cards)

Tanira Thorngrow and Clancy
