jonboyjon1990 958 Posted April 21, 2017 What's weird is the lack of a hero expansion. I imagine an Elf infantry command expansion will only come once they have a non-ranged infantry unit option? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We thought it was the Uthuk army pack (and it still might be), but it could also be the Latari Infantry Unit Upgrade Expansion Pack. 1 Lyraeus reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Budgernaut 6,255 Posted April 21, 2017 Do you think these will release at the same time as the army expansion? They're all slated for quarter 3, so it's possible. That would be really exciting for the Latari players. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vineheart01 6,403 Posted April 21, 2017 possible. Or a month-ish apart which would be odd but also possible Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonboyjon1990 958 Posted April 21, 2017 Month or so gap between army and unit expansions would mirror the experience of the core set factions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hidatom 503 Posted April 21, 2017 Is "Column tactics" usable by any faction? (Or is the upgrade type unique to the elves?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faction-specific cards have that faction's icon in the lower left corner and have that faction's color splashed over the frieze in the top of the card.

They announced the daqan/waiqar expansions a bit staggered, so I imagine the upgrade pack and hero pack will just show up sometime in the next month.

For all we know it could be in the Oathsworn package. That was a hasty assumption that it is only in the Elves. FFG has said quite a few times that in RMG there will be neutral cards in all faction's boxes so that you wouldn't have to buy other faction's stuff to just get upgrades.

There's no elf icon in the lower left corner. Unless you are looking to trade threat for better rerolls, I don't see much point in tacking this on anything other than the Leonx that you are bringing in their 1x3 or 2x3 formations.

Anyway to get that information before I invest anymore into this game? It seemed pretty clear that they would NOT force you to buy out of faction packs to get upgrades...

And if it isn't in the Oathswon Cavalry Expansion, it may be in a future expansion down the road. They said they are going to make it feasible to buy only in a single faction, but that doesn't mean that all factions will have access to the same upgrades at the same time. Releases could be staggered. 2 S0L and Muz333 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The preview article mentions that it comes with 5 neutral upgrades and pictures five of them. If humans and undead don't get the Column Tactics upgrade immediately, I'm not going to lose much sleep. Of the 4 different unit types (Oathsworn, Reanimates, Reanimate Archers, Carrion Worm) that could even take the upgrade it's only really worth taking on the 46 point 3x2 Oathsworn Cavalry formation.

" And then the article shows ll five of them. it might be in the hero box (and would make sense as he is a cavalry unit), "six new upgrade cards, four of which will improve any army and two that are exclusive to Lord Hawthorne." I will hold off from lighting the torches until we see his cards. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
