Exemplars even amongst the superhumanly skilled Orders, the Order of the Ashen Dawn are spoken of in hushed whispers and respectful tones even by those who are unlucky enough to count them as enemies. Clad in baroque armor of a craftsmanship that has reduced master smiths to tears, these holy warriors are the definitive answer to the monsters and nightmares that plague mankind. They are the final guardians of the Sealed Temple and the keepers of its darkest treasures. FUN FACT - In First Blood these will be officers with unique rules, thus 3 cards. A unique feature for this set.

A great value for players, a substantial discount over the prices if purchased separately. How do the Hundred Kingdoms play? The Hundred Kingdoms cannot claim to have the best troops, but they have damn good troops and they tend to have more of them. Their cavalry is second to none and the intrinsic flexibility of the human mindset means your opponent cannot be certain what he will face: A veteran force of hard bitten infantry supported by powerful casters? A thundering charge led by an impetuous lord that bets everything on the speed of horse and strength of arms? OR The canny and disciplined combined arms approach of a shrewd imperial officer who leverages each of these pieces into a sum greater than the whole?

When one gazes upon the wonders of a City State; its cyclopean walls, its towering cranes and smokeless foundries, one cannot help but suspect that these wonders cannot have been built by mortal hands alone. And they would not be far wrong. Deep within the bowels of each Acropolis reside the Prometheans, ancient Titanic allies of the Scholae and their founder, whose deep primordial knowledge is responsible for many of the wonders that allow the city states to stand. Rare and fell is the need that rouses one of these ancients to war, for their every blow cracks the enemies will even as it empowers it’s allies.

Every army of the City States that marches to war, does so under the supervision of at least one Mechanist. One could be forgiven for believing he is there to ensure the smooth operation of the army and the countless machines, both big and small, that are so vital to the smooth operation of a City State’s army. What many fail to recognize is that they are there to ensure that reality itself operates along the rules and parameters laid out in their Lexicons by their Divinity.

Few mortal forces strike as much fear into the hearts of an opposing general as the sight W’adrhŭn Veterans taking the field. Hardened by years of combat and honed to a fine edge over countless campaigns, these hard bitten W’adrhŭn have been awarded steel arms and armor by the Cult of War in recognition of their mastery of the field of battle. With reflexes and instincts nurtured by a lifetime of war, these grizzled Veterans can perform almost any role on the battlefield, shifting from obdurate defense to savage attack in the blink of an eye.

It is the nature of power to corrupt. Few individuals were as aware of this universal truth as the Caelesors of the Old Dominion. Like the Praetorians replaced the Athanatoi and their unbending devotion to the writ of Hazlia, so were the Varangians established upon the ashes of the Praetorian Guard when their mortal weakness and thirst for power saw them betray their leaders. Through the centuries of unrest and the Fall that followed, the Varangians have stood guard over the Caelesors and those closest to them, bringing bloody death and vengeance to any who would dare harm them.

The humble sling they wield is a weapon of surprising efficiency when wielded by a proficient human. In the hands of an experience W’adrhŭn, these primitive weapons become a terror. Backed by the savagery of their wielders, few formations can withstand a double volley followed by a charge of these fearsome warriors, who have cut their teeth hunting the most dangerous of prey on jungle and plains alike.

Sculpted and re-posed to bestride the terrifying primordial terror that is the Apex Predator, an Apex Queen is a fantastic addition to any W'adrhun force. Her innate abilities protect the beast she rides upon and she can choose to double down on this protection to ensure it reaches the enemy lines or gear up for maximum mayhem, making her (and her...pet) one of the most powerful effective forces in a W'adrhun general's toolbox.

A young race like the W’adrhŭn would naturally prize life giving females above all roles in its society. So, what does it say of those females who eschew these roles and chose, rather, to follow the example of their living goddess, becoming peerless warriors and leaders? Simply that they have earned every ounce of respect from their warriors and every iota of fear from their enemies through sheer talent and application.

Unlike the feudal obligations of the Hundred Kingdoms, the City States have embraced a higher ideal for their people and armed forces. The bulk of their army is composed of Hoplites, citizen soldiers mustered to protect their city and its interests. Armed and equipped from the advanced foundries of their City State and drilled relentlessly, a phalanx of Hoplites is an almost immovable obstacle on the battlefield, capable of holding their own against the best any challenger might throw at them.

When the Bred were originally conceived and gifted to the Dominion, Minotaurs were intended to be docile, tractable agrarian workers. It did not take long for man to look upon this mountain of muscle and decide to put it to a different use. Purposefully bred and conditioned for aggression, Minotaur Thyreans and their double handed weapons are an unstoppable presence of the battlefield, delivering unstoppable charges and wielding massive weapons that make a mockery of enemy defenses and formations.

Raised almost exclusively within the walls of the Scholae, aspirant Polemarchs are selected from the teeming multitudes of the City State through the rigorous yearly exams that feed the City State’s administration. Chosen for their leadership skills and physical proficiency, their exhaustive, ten-year curriculum is rounded out with at least a decade’s worth of actual combat experience before they can claim the title. Leading from the front lines and inspiring their troops, Polemarchoi have become iconic figures epitomizing the martial strength of the City States. This has led ignorant northern scholars to translate the title of Polemarchos as ‘Warlord’. This is wrong, the correct title is ‘Lord of War’.

Much of a City States bureaucratic apparatus is selected through a rigorous civil service exam, but the Aristarch is an exception. Handpicked from the pool of Aspirant Polemachoi by the ruling power of a City State; be it a Council, a Tyrant or even a God, an Aristarchos embodies all of the virtues of a city State and is thus chosen to lead its forces on campaign. Tested and trained to a standard even higher than that of the Polemarch, his studies focus instead on strategy, philosophy, politics and economics, allowing him to serve the role of general, ambassador or governor as needs dictate to further the power and glory of his City.

The Directorate has long sought to produce the perfect assassin clone, but their efforts have been incessantly stymied by the Sovereign. He has made it a matter of personal interest to ensure that all Ark vaults containing pertinent data to this research fall squarely under his direct supervision, denying the Directorate access to chameleonic strand sequences and certain personality traits, which it has sought for so long. They have instead been forced to adapt and improvise with those strands they already possess: agility, strength, aggression and some limited biomechanical functions.
While this formula would result in an impressively enhanced clone, it would nonetheless need to be trained and outfitted, further draining the Directorate’s limited resources. To overcome this limitation, the Directorate has turned to one of their core techniques: pheromonic manipulation. In addition to its unrivaled speed and ferocity, the Mimetic Assassin produces a very specific range of pheromones designed to induce lethargy in any complex organism, as well as making them more compliant and suggestible.
True to the origin of its design, therefore, this clone’s mimetic abilities derive from form and function, rather than training. Each segment of its carapace is individually articulated and razor sharp, allowing it to change its body shape, stance and outline to masquerade as any clone (or humanoid biped with minimal effort in disguise) or even produce claws and weapons made from its own body. Coupled with its pheromonic field, these attributes grant the Mimetic an unprecedented edge in infiltration and ambush situations. Easily overlooked in the dead of night or heaving mass of combat, the Mimetic Assassin can close within range of its chosen foe unnoticed before it springs into action, transforming into a whirling, stabbing monstrosity in the flash of an eye.

Among the highest echelons of the Lineages, none are truly expected to risk their lives anymore, much less for something as simple and trivial as combat. The chosen warriors of the Sovereign’s Lineages stride through the battlefield safely projecting their consciousness into their Avatara: outlandish creations bedecked in all sorts of ornament and Biomantic enhancements, whose lithe, androgynous frames bely the speed and power they can bring to bear. With almost no personal risk and minimal skill needed to become a deadly foe, many scions of the Lineages have taken to decorating their Avatara as ostentatiously as possible, for the body-vessels have made them such proficient killers that a tally of the slain foes is simply no longer a practical method by which to distinguish oneself. To date, only those Lineages directly descended from the Sovereign have displayed the capability to deploy Avatara surrogates. If any among the Directorate or the minor Lineages possess the capability, they keep it well hidden for they know the Sovereign will stop at nothing to ensure their destruction, as he already did when the surrogates were first displayed.

Amongst the most elite troops available to any faction, the Avatara will allow Spire players to either round out their existing forces with fast, hard hitting troops capable of dealing with heavy armor or encourage them to start an elite themed army. Given their Mainstay status a new army paradigm can be established around these powerful troops, exploiting their Mainstay classification to build a small, elite force around a core of Avatar regiments.

A massive humanoid torso crowns the baroque, armored equine monstrosity of the Centaur Avatara, bristling with arms each carrying a deadly blade. Scoffing at the notion of partnership with another being, but keenly aware of the advantages of cavalry upon the field, Spires created the Centaur iterations of the Avatara to mimic the original knights, the companions and equites of the Old Dominion. To date these have been reserved for only the eldest and most powerful elders of the Lineages. Their recent presence on the western battlefield can only bode ill for the Hundred Kingdoms as these hoary monsters shed millennia of ennui and rekindle their bloodlust and interest in battle.

During the early reign of the Hundred Kingdoms, the Order of the Shield took it upon itself to protect man from its most dangerous predators. Eschewing the combat formations of their predecessors, the Order of the Shield traveled the lands alone and sought to alleviate suffering where they could. The Emperor elevated their Order to the rank of Imperial Magistrates, allowing the Errant Knights of the Shield to work as judge, jury and executioner against all but the most powerful of noble houses. This did not endear them to the nobility, and when the last Emperor died one of their first moves was to seek out and destroy any members of this ancient order. Today they are few and far in between but continue their thankless task of protecting the citizens and peasants of the 100 Kingdoms against all those who would prey upon them, especially the nobility itself.

A portion of all Force Grown Drones is tithed to the Onslaught Program. An advanced research grant established by the directorate to further the development of the Spire’s combat drones. It is upon these hapless wretches that the Directorate expands its knowledge of neural and hormonal overstimulation, pushing the boundaries of their own craft a tiny bit further with each test. Already they have borne fruit, allowing the clones’ direct supervisors to trigger their hyper aggression only once a safe distance from friendlies has been achieved.

Ignored and often resented, High Clone Executors provide a critical role that not even the most arrogant of the Lineage Highborn can deny: direct battlefield experience and a core of professional officers to lead the troops. While Biomancers and Pheromancers might turn the soldiers into ravening automata and Lineage Highborn might be unstoppable on the field, it is the High Clone Executors who time and again deliver victories across a hundred different battlefields.
To achieve the rank of Executor, a clone must have advanced through the ranks of the Vanguard Infantry and Infiltrators. This hard-earned battlefield experience grants them deep tactical and strategic insight that is seldom found within a Spire’s forces. Competition for recognition and advancement among the high clones is fierce and its expressions are not only physical and violent. These are broadly tolerated, if not encouraged, by their overseers, to enhance these desired traits and cull those lacking them.
Those that survive and excel in the Infiltrator teams earn the right to don the powerful Pteraphon suits. It is a testament to the seductive nature of the raw physical power this suit provides (and the highly addictive cocktail of drugs and pheromones it secretes) that only a tiny fraction of those who survive long enough elect to abandon these suits and demand their selfhood be recognized.
It is a curious aspect of Spire social structure that the concept of nation or state does not exist in that one is either acknowledged as a sentient being or is not. Once sentience is established, then all social standing and value is derived from one’s Lineage and personal achievement. And yet, while their individuality is recognized, High Clones are stigmatized with the ‘Clone’ moniker despite having proven their value to the Spire through grueling and dangerous service in order to secure their right to selfhood.
This leaves the newly recognized High Clones with but one of two choices for advancement: join the Arenas or seek the patronage of a Lineage. Of the two paths, it is often remarked that joining a Lineage is by far the most hazardous; in the Arena, the saying goes, you at least know who your adversaries are. Nothing, on the other hand, has prepared a High Clone for the machinations and power plays of Lineage politics.
Lacking the refined education of their Spire betters, veteran High Clones possess only those skills they have earned on the battlefield. Tactically knowledgeable as infantry men and strategically acute as infiltrators and Pteraphon riders, High Clones excel at what they do but not always at the society they live in. A fraction of them have managed to adapt and employ their training in politics, rising above their intended station. Most often than not, they are given a modest stipend and employed as ceremonial guards, (since the real bodyguard roles for the truly exalted amongst their society are reserved for those creatures whose loyalty and combat capacity are compelled by Biomantic means). Those who are not content with these limited roles must vie to be recognized as Executors, officers in one of the Sovereign Lineages’ armies.
In order to advance through the ranks, Executors must have proven and keep proving their ability time and again, both on the field of battle and without. They must secure chances at proving their capacity, provide victory on the battlefield and be able to claim credit for that victory, always vying against backstabbing colleagues, jealous superiors and ruthlessly demanding masters. The result is that should one encounter a High Clone Executor leading an enemy force, he should know he is facing a ruthlessly competent individual who has no compunctions or limitations on the pursuit of victory.

Not all beasts employed by the W’adrhun are hulking monstrosities that dominate the battlefield. They have in fact almost managed to domesticate a smaller breed, affectionately called the uzibukhali, (smart claw). Packs of these feathered menaces roam W’adrhun settlements keeping them clear of vermin and smaller predators in exchange for scraps and access to the charnel pits. In times of war they are easily wrangled into packs and unleashed upon the scouts and forerunners of the enemies force, their cunning and ferocity making them more than a match for more powerful opponents.

Such is the prestige and Aghm of the position of Hold Raegh, that even the eldest of Mnemancers begrudgingly concede that his deeds must be recorded. Sending even the most junior of their members to witness and record the Raegh’s actions in combat is a tremendous boon to an ambitious warlord. Warriors under his command will fight like men possessed, refusing to take a single backward step while under the merciless gaze of history personified.

Lore:
It is a testament to the harshness and potential dangers of military advancement, the fact that the bulk of Dweghom warriors have stepped off the advancement track and committed themselves to a lifetime of military service. The sword and shield remain the traditional equipment of these warriors. On the other hand, battle with a flying opponent quickly cured the Dweghom of preconceptions against ranged combat. The ballistae were the first ranged weapon developed to combat dragons and remain a powerful instrument of death against lesser foes, their ease of production and repair making them a staple of the Hold armories.
Be they shield-bearing warriors or ballistae specialists, when one encounters unranked Hold Warriors, he will mostly be facing hardened veterans who have devoted their life to military service. The small percentage who are not lifelong servicemen, however, trade battlefield experience for ambition and ruthlessness, making them just as dangerous on the field of battle.

Lore:
Among the Ardent, Flame Berserkers are a small brotherhood who, gifted beyond their peers with the raw power of the Element of Fire, do not seek to master or tame it, but rather embody it. For most, this transition happens during the Dheukorro, the Descent, the trail of passage all Ardent must complete to prove their devotion. None speak of what happens in the deep, but when they return they are changed: their bodies sport crude implants that compensate for those losses they have suffered to foe or flame, while their obsidian arms and what little armor they bear are impervious to the flame and heat they generate. In their mind, the trade is a favorable one: life for glory, time for worth.
It is this, above all the other overwhelming advantages, that make Flame Berserkers such a terrifying foe to face. Only when one faces them on the field of battle can one truly grasp that behind the swirling flames and red-hot flurry of axes, lies a being that has consciously chosen self-immolation over survival; destruction over preservation; the death of their foes at the price of their own.

Lore:
While the corruption of the Elemental Domains was eventually understood, the existence of the Asuras has never been explained. Violent, malicious and powerful, the effort needed to defeat and bind one of these monstrosities is exceeded only by their effectiveness on the battlefield. The Sorcerer Kings have found it easier to control these beasts if their bloodthirsty urges are satiated on the battlefield: the Ravanar look only to destroy while the Bakasura seek worth foes to hunt down and consume. Their binders travel the length and breadth of the Sorcerer King domains to find worthy foes for these minor deities, and while few are worthy, but all serve to satiate their hunger for pain and bloodshed.How they Play:
Ravenous beings of Fire, the Rakshasa's are unleashed upon the Enemies of the Sorcerer Kings to hunt down and slay the mightiest of foes. Their Special Rules, "Arrogance" and "Hubris" allows them to quickly close the gap between them and their favorite prey. The Ravanar is only satiated by hunting down the mightiest of Monsters whilst the Basakura revels in calling out Enemy Characters in Duels only to destroy and humiliate them. Make sure to include a Rakshasa Ravanar in your Army when Enemy Monsters are attempting to overwhelm you and a Raksasa Basakura for those Enemy Characters who thought that Dueling against the Sorcerer Kings would be a simple ordeal.

Lore:
Aloof and powerful, it is only the natural curiosity of these powerful Yakshas that has allowed the Sorcerer Kings to leverage their access to the material Domain into short term contracts of service. The price for the powerful primordial warriors is high, for they are masters of whatever craft they choose to follow. The Windborne Djinn slay their foes from afar with deadly accurate volleys, while the Steelheart Djinn can be found in the heart of combat, their speed and grace lending deadly power to their elegant weaponry as they carve their way through even the most heavily armored foes.How they Play:
Powerful elemental beings, the Djinn embody the free flow of the Court of Air carrying the sorcerous prowess of Air Spellcasters to the furthest corners of the battlefield. Upon their deaths their souls feed the Sorcerous Rituals of Air returning them back to the aether from which they came. Make sure to include Windborne Djinn for accurate, armor piercing long ranged support and Steelheart Djinn for quality, close combat prowess!
