There's quite a lot of speculation of the new Epic Goreshade being a minion warcaster for Everblight, as Magnus is for Skorne. He looks to be holding an Everblight sword that's dripping ice - fuelling the rumours....

Nah... My Goreshade wouldn't work for the lesser dragon. He doesn't even work for the greater, as he is too selfish... 8) 8) 8) 8)
If you ask me, That sword is probably Bloodclever, as goreshade loves the sword, and he several times mentioned that he's never going to let it go, but he went EVlad on it, and forged poor Nyssor's soul into it, after a friendly cup of coffee :twisted: :twisted:

This thread should be cross referenced to the "Is it broken/should we nerf it thread?" too.

His abilities seems incredibly good (this is coming from a Trollblood player mind you).

Elite Cadre Bane Thralls - all the usual bonuses plus where they kill an enemy trooper that trooper joins their unit as a bane thrall.
Feat - Change any trooper for a different trooper model. So if we look at the following list;
Goreshade the Cursed
Deathjack
Skarlock
Bane Lord Tartarus
Bile Thralls (10)
Bile Thralls (10)
Bile Thralls (10)
Mechanithralls (10)
Mechanithralls (10)
Mechanithralls (10)
Withershadow Combine
747 Points

Goreshade pops his feat in turn 1 and the army becomes;
Goreshade the Cursed
Deathjack
Skarlock
Bane Lord Tartarus
Bane Knights (10)
Bane Knights (10)
Bane Knights (10)
Bane Thralls (10)
Bane Thralls (10)
Bane Thralls (10)
Withershadow Combine
1134 Points - not including all the other bane thralls that those 30 are going to create.

It seems to me they've chosen a REALLY strange way to address the eVlad problem

But I'm not worried I've got eMadrak ](*,)

That's not how it works, unfortunately :-(
His feat can bring back only models that DIED, BUT DID NOT GET REMOVED FROM PLAY, and you have to sac a model to bring back a model, and you have to return models to it's ORIGINAl UNIt (so-no unit, no model), and , on top of everything, those models cannot activate that turn. i would even go as far as it being one of the most lamest feats in the game...
Read them, before you whine... :wink: :wink: :wink:
