Product blurbs are out for new stuff:
The Tactical Arcanist Corps always work in threes. They undergo training and drilling together until they can meet and even exceed the exacting standards imposed by the Brand of Odom for Rhul’s elite battle mages. They defend those they are contracted to protect with scorching salvos of arcane fire, incinerating those that challenge them.It's funny because they sound awful. The searforge players went nuts when this unit was announced, and a magic unit with nothing but probably crappy AOE spells, particularly a slow dwarf unit with AOEs is really going to struggle to be good. So I'm just going to wallow in my own crapulence here for a minute. HAHAHAHA!
The Tactical Arcanist Corps unit comes in a blister (PIP 41102). A player may field up to two Tactical Arcanists Corps units in a Cygnar, Khador, or Mercenary army.
Ranging far ahead of a main body of attackers, Tharn blood packs move through the densest thickets with speed and agility surprising for such hulking warriors. With massive bows they loose arrows that could be mistaken for small javelins before closing with frightening speed to slaughter their prey.Pathfinder, maybe tree walker like the ravagers. Advance Deployment. Possibly thunderbolt. They could go either way. Assault or Assault and Battery? Before the Incendiary medium based shooting units were pretty bad but I don't think they are going to be as good as the Incendiary. In fairness Warspears are pretty good with their new UA too.
Mage hunter infiltrators specialize in hunting and killing enemy arcanists. At home in any environment, they take advantage of their surroundings to close on their target in silence, their blades slicing through arcane wards with practiced ease. From out of the darkness they strike, quickly and efficiently dispatching those whose very existence threatens Scyrah.Arcane assassin was always a given. This one doesn't tell us anything except maybe pathfinder. Maybe stealth.
Such is the power of faith in an Exemplar bastion seneschal that his presence allows brother bastions to endure impossible punishment while firmly holding the line against the Creator’s enemies. Exemplar bastion seneschals are uniquely entrusted with the command of the Protectorate’s warjacks in support of their fellow Exemplar knights, joining the power of those machines to the bastions’ unbreakable wall.This one just from the blurb is off the hook amazing. Bastions were already fantastic anything he gives them (defensive line? holy crap defensive line would be amazing) is just gravy. What makes him bonkers though is that he is Menoth's first jack marshal. That's silly good. I doubt he'll have a drive (or he'll have a garbage one) but choir buffs, focus from reclaimers and Vassal shenanigans all work on marshalled jacks. So does the sancifiers soul gathering shenanigans. There is a reason Menoth have not got a jack marshal up until now.
The Exemplar Bastion Seneschal solo comes in a blister (PIP 32090). A player may field up to two Exemplar Bastion Seneschals for each warcaster in a Protectorate army.
