via FFG
Freshly announced from FFG–the newest Rune Wars expansion unit, the Latari Command. Containing four different miniatures: the Champion, the Herald, the Sorceress, and the Starling, this box is sure to give your elves that extra bit of magic they need to defeat all comers.
Latari Champion
Armed with a khopesh and all the martial prowess befitting the most honored warriors of the Latari, the Champions are among the greatest warriors of the tribes.
Defenders through and through, these warriors are capable of countering enemies once they’ve attacked. The Avenger of Latarnia upgrade allows them to immediately activate and launch a melee attack at an assailant who’s just attacked them, ignoring normal initiative order. Sure, the Champion must forfeit their normal activation to do so, but this is a fantastic option that adds even more versatility to the unit.
Latari Herald
The Bannermen of the Latari–capable with sword and spear and bow alike. These elves are skilled warriors, but even more skilled commanders.
Capable of placing overgrowth tokens in the battlefield, to face a Herald is to face the woods themselves. Heralds can use their connection to the land to aid their allies as well as hinder their foes, though. They can provide rerolls to ranged troops, ensuring your shots land when needed.
Latari Starling
These are the bards of the Latari. Cloaked in sorry and song and legend, they are inspiring leaders whose music cam turn the tides of battle in am instant.
It’s said their music can increase strength or stave off panic, and worth upgrades like the Tactical Starling, which lets your forces retreat/reposition workout penalty–or the rallying Starling, who can remove banes, you’ll be keeping your forces in fighting form, even as your enemies fall apart around you.
Latari Storm Sorceress
Masters of the Storm. These sorceresses can call down lightning to smite their enemies or call forth gusts of wind and rain to protect their allies. They control the very elements, and with their upgrades can command the terrain itself to shield their friends.
As you can see, the Verdant Sorceress can protect her allies, removing banes as they take shelter near the overgrown terrain. Synergizes well with the Herald’s ability.
