Rewards for Hobbying

Painted models are not required for participation in this campaign, but we want to reward hobbying efforts since we all agree that they make for a more immersive experience. Armies that include at least one unit painted to at least basic tournament standards (3 different colors and based) earn 1/2 Battle Point. If the entire army is painted to at least basic tournament standards, the army earns 1 Battle Point.

Warlord and Retinue

Each army in this campaign is led by a Warlord; a mighty hero whose experience and skill will grow over the course of the campaign.

A Warlord must be accompanied in each battle by their personal retinue; a unit of veteran soldiers whose abilities will also increase over time. Retinues must be a Core Unit and adhere to the maximum points allowed in the Scenario. The Warlord is not required to join their retinue during the battle.

At the end of each battle, roll a D6 on the tables below to determine new skills for the warlord's and their retinues. Warlords and Retinues whose team won should roll on the Victorious Experience Table and Warlords whose team lost should roll on the Defeated Experience Table. In the case of rules that the unit already has, rules that the unit could not utilize, or repeat rolls on the experience table, reroll the D6.
