Ive heard alot of various mentions of Wrath over the other areas of the forum and it got me thinking about it and i realized that i dont know anything bout it. I know that we are getting a caster that is good with jacks and Torch but other than that i got squat.
So Komrades I ask you. what do we know about Wrath?

We get an old man jack caster, some kind of greylord character with a sword, and an armored gun wagon. We don't know what pulls the wagon.

if horses pull the wagon then I might just puke blood.

sorry.

can we get a proper control caster?

Sorry the stupid thing looks like its pulled by horsesas it appears to have 2 Horse harnesses in the front. I fully expect both Horses to be in a pose similar to the Man-O-War Drakun but thats just my own opinion so take it with a grain of salt. It is kinda a let down that Cygnar gets this Dragoon looking thing from Starcraft, Cryx gets an awesome looking Cankerworm monstrosity. I think that I like the idea for the new "tanks" but the concept art for Khador's model eh not so much...

Oops, I forgot to mention Khador is also known as the Horse Lords, tying it into a horse pulling it relates to the fluff in a round about way

I had heard in the fluff the new caster is supposed to be tied to the iron fangs, so I would love to see a jack/iron fang caster.

I'm actually kind of surprised that they would go with an Iron Fang caster theme... again. Prince Vlad has the huge Paldrons which strangely enough resemble the Iron Fangs

I hope that our new caster is a Man O War...
...and I hope we get a Man O War UA too. :-)

Oh, and we will be getting all the models in the book before the MoW Bombadiers.

Actually that's a supposition given his name, but we've had zero actual data one way or the other so far.

Hey man, PP said they'll be out soon, so you know they'll be out in a month or two. Right after those Destors...

What do we know about this Grey Lord character? I'm a bit jealous after seeing what Legion got for their Hexblades and Bayal.

Not a bloody thing. All we saw was a picture of the concept art.

If you haven't already seen the video from GenCon here it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bXvDYxnjXU

Well lets hope its something better than an armored wagon pulled by horses or at least I hope PP can be a little more creative than that. However I have not been thrilled with the creativity in most every coming out for Khador in a while rules or fluff wise other than the Flamethrowers and Strakhov. So heres to hoping we get stuff that just wont be another mediocre to good model amongst so many other models that already does the same thing.

Yeah I saw the Cygnar Protoss tank and squealed with glee (so gorgeous), the Cryx thing and went "niiice"; but then I saw the armored pumpkin carriage from the demented fairy godmother and ... hoped that the new sized super-models are trash for their points, because I likely will not field one :(

But I don't recall any mention of IFP crosstraining with Warjacks in the fluff, and this guy is a jack buddy (his entire blurb was about how he blitzes with jacks, basically).

Has it occurred to anyone else that he looks slightly old, has an atire like zerkova's, and maybe slightly resembles her (his stance and overall gauntness). I remembered reading in Irusk's blurb that he followed the teachings of Rurik Zerkova, maybe its Rurik (which i am guessing is Zerkovas dad?).

We're all hoping that's a pic of a greylord solo, not the caster.

So true.

There may even be unknown knowns at this point, the coffee hasn't yet kicked in.

yes, it's a pic of the greylord solo / UA... someone translated the runes. His name is Koldun Kapitan Valechev.

and a Kapitan wouldnt be a caster. unless he is like caine and gets demoted and i mean ALOT

shame, i wanted an offensive caster lock. if any one could do it, it would be zerks dad( he was too busy kicking *** to teach zerk how to kick ***)

We also know that there is going to be some kind of new Unit atachement diffrent from these we knew so far, and I think that this Rasputin like guy is this new atachement to make hardly-ever-taken-Ternions better

Makes since... I was more hoping for an Assault Kommando UA and that this guy would be more like a Journeyman Warcaster. It would give me more incentive to take the decimator that I hardly ever use if I had a 3 focus solo that could run the thing as hot as i'd like.

I actually use the Ternions tho. The sprays are great, hard part is getting them into combat tho...

Yes a journeyman style solo would be great, as I too would like to use the Decimator more.
What if hes like the soulless and you can add him to any unit as a ua?

Or even crazier... what if he lets you join 2 units of ternions into 1 unit under himself as the ua. You get a 7 man ternion unit with the UA granted/tactics given to everyone rather than just a 4 man ternion unit. Make our greylords even more toolbox.

Cheers, T

Yea i want that

The journeyman idea. I want it. Imagine him with 3/4 focus, maybe boundless charge or some other signature Khador spell. He'd be so gross.

How about Iron Flesh? How sweet would it be to toss that onto our casters that don't have it?

Rogue Sun

I really hope Wrath is about giving Khador some support units, quite honestly. I look at Trolls, who I would argue are the closest analogue to Khador, and see a great force with some truly nifty support options which make their army both defensively feasible and offensively brutal. Right now we have the Koldun Lord (who at FA:1 is pretty pitiful) and Kovnik Jo, who is great with winterguard no doubt, but is about the only support unit in our entire army line. I just want some synergy! I'm good on beatsticks right now, I have about 20 of them. Give me something that makes them super special beatsticks like every other faction has.

Give unto us the League MOW Kovnick ... I don't care what you call it or how you justify it. Do eeeeet!

Give us a WG Rifles UA that gives them CRA and I'll be happy.

Trollbloods are one of my secondary factions, and I definitely feel that they can do the Khador shtick better than Khador sometimes.

I play an army full of melee beatsticks, but I'm being out-beatstick-ed by other armies these days. Give us a MOW Tyrant Commander, a general purpose Fell Caller, a Mechanik-themed Shepard, etc. Give me shenanigans with which to bring the axe to face!

I support getting support pieces! Something to make my MOW less envious of Skorne and Menoth and Trolls ...

Khador247
11-16-2010, 02:57 PM
I'm really anxious to get the Circle book and start buying Circle models. Until now Skorne has been my Hordes army but I'm looking to switch. I don't even have my Circle book yet though and I'm already pumped up for Wrath.

Draxos
11-16-2010, 03:00 PM
While i agree fully that some support pieces are needed but that would be too much like trolls and menoth so i doubt PP will do it. That said ill be first in line if they do.

Mechanik UA would be awesome.

Pyrodude32
11-18-2010, 08:56 AM
I was thinking about the Iron Wolf caster that we will be getting. It says in the fluff about him being from the old school mentality and that he can make jacks perform beyond their normal limits. Any chance that this may be an Iron Fang Uhlan caster that gives the jacks the Iron Horse ability? I know kind of a copy of Cygnar a little... The story material in the Khador book mentions the old traditions when you read the fluff behind the Iron Fang Uhlans.

I'm afraid to even hold my breath for a MoW Caster or MoW UA; I might just pass out :p


Mechanik UA would be awesome.
What I would like even more than a UA for them is just a Mechanik solo with Power Booster :D

Khador247
11-19-2010, 12:54 PM
We need a mechanik in MOW armor ala Arlan Strangeways that can help warjacks. Extra SPD or movement, pathfinder, or a buff to MAT would be nice.

If our super heavy thing is pulled by horses i swear i will cut them off and have a Dev pull it.
