Khador: General Winter and lots of Steel Plate

Welcome to the first of our articles written by new players from our club trying to explain their impressions and understandings of the various factions of WarmaHordes.

Also, our first official league "MACHINATIONS" has begun. We are now deep into unlocking the secrets of UMBRA. and are looking to order the new second season package complete with badges and other such goodies!!!

KHADOR

“You can’t ignore a Khador Warjack. It just keeps coming, shrugging off everything you throw at it.”

-Paraphrased from Prime Mk.II

The Khador army doesn’t believe in subtlety nor that you can bring too much power to the battlefield.

Khador is the nation of the north, the Russian iron kingdom. Good things do not come in small packages in Khador; their entire warjack line up consists of heavy warjacks, and many of those are the heaviest fielded by any faction.

To fill in the space between heavy warjack and soldier Khador has man-o-wars, men wearing steam-powered armour, and other medium based troops. Although Khador is not without its quick and nimble elements its backbone will always be made of unyielding steel. Ice and cold wind is also part of the army’s theme; General Winter has not abandoned the north.

The basic Khador strategy involves advancing, engaging and locking down the enemy. Khador will win almost any straight out exchange of blows. In my short but violent personal experience, I have yet to see a Khador warjack be destroyed in a battle (my own units that face them have no such limitation, however.... ugh!)

WE HAVE:

The Butcher of Khardov – Possibly none could illustrate the straight forward nature of Khador better than the Butcher, the only Warcaster not to have a single special rule attached to him. His spells boost combat ability, except for the offensive Obliteration attack. His feat boosts the damage of melee attacks, no more, no less.

Kommander Sorscha – Sorscha is an assassin and she uses her army to set up the moment where she can rush in on the opposing warcaster. Her spells and abilities are also geared to her doing things herself. Her feat freezes all the enemy she can see, allowing her to simply walk by them.

Destroyer – A walking piece of artillery to blow things up with.

Juggernaut – The basic Khador warjack, armour and carries a big axe.

Man-O-War Shocktroopers – Armour soldiers who are almost as tough as warjacks.

Kossite Woodsmen – Ambushing bowmen that can show up from the sides of the battlefield.

War Dog – A loyal guardian for your warcaster that can rush the enemy and return to its master’s side.

Widowmaker Marksman – A quick and stealthy sniper.
