An Order army makes use of heavily armed units as well as devastating cavalry. Soldiers from different areas of the old world form the bulk of the army, knights ride down all those who oppose them, crusaders march upon far away lands, and the monks roar out their awe-inspiring warcrys. Leading these troops are none other than the four Hochmeisters, who charge into battles worthy of tale and song.

Knights from Pfeildorf lay waste to the countryside of Verezzo after a failed crusade. They establish the Fortress of Venitzia to maintain a permanent presence there.

The Knights of Tyra invade northern Estalia and burn the city of Graus to the ground, They form an order castle (El doro) in Azuara. This begins the expansion of the order in Estalia.

The great war against chaos sweeps into the Empire. Almost one thousand knights ride to the aid of Kislev and help the Empire break the army of Asvar kul.

Knights are sent to aid the Kislevites in defending against incursions from Chaos warriors and Beastmen. The leader of the knights, Darak-kal (also known as Darak the Dark) becomes corrupted goes on a rampage throughout Kislev, the Baersonlings, and even parts of the Empire. He is defeated at the Battle of Galicia where a massive army of skaven annihilates his force. Darak-kal escaped and began to train a new army in the border princedoms.

A Crusade is launched on distant Cathey but ends in disaster. On it’s sail home the crusaders are lost in a storm and are never seen again. It is rumored that they crashed somewhere in the new world or perhaps Albion.

The Order allows mages to join its ranks.

The Order locates Darak-kal and sends an army against him. The resulting conflict sees Darak the Dark killed. The Greatest Knights of the Order adopt the horned helms of Darak’s forces.

The Order is reformed to have a Hochmiester for each human nation.

The garrison at Fortress Venitzia is overwhelmed by Miragliano and the fort is ruined.

An army is sent to Fortress Venitzia under Hochmiester Marcus to reclaim it for the order. Verezzo is subjugated again and the Tilean sect of the order is reestablished.

The Storm of Chaos: The entire order is marshaled once again to ride out and confront the armies of the Everchosen.

The Battle of Solland’s Crown: the last count of Solland, Eldred, is killed in battle by Gorbad Ironclaw. The few surviving knights in his retinue flee to Altdorf.

The surviving knights fight in the siege of Altdorf and only four knights survive. Hugo Shnieder, Gerath Eastwald, Yarrik von Esterkal, and Erik Jünger.

The knights dedicate themselves to passing on the ideals of Solland.

The four knights Travel to Pfeildorf and Establish the Order's Headquarters.

Erik Jünger, last of the four, rides off at an incredibly old age. He is never seen again.

The Oder grows in number as other surviving Sollanders flock to Pfeildorf. At this time the order is headed by a council of knights.

A small troop of the order ride to the aid of Bretonnia. They battle alongside the knights of Repanse de Lyonesse and are granted land in both Brionne and Montfort.

Knights of the Order ride to aid Altdorf against Vlad von Carstein.

The Castle of Nagrifal in Montfort is sacked by Orcs. The Fortress of Tyra in Brionne demands to be made independent.

Greth Ultigen is appointed the first Hochmeister of the Order. He allows Tyra to elect their own Großkomptur to govern the province.

Greth leads members of the order in battle against Konrad von Carstein.

Greth leads the knights in battle alongside the empire forces against Manfred von Carstein. He elects the next Hochmeister before leading his personal retinue to join the battle at Hel Fenn in 2145.

Estalia invades Brionne, the Britonnian order is hard pressed to defend Fortress Tyra.

TIMELINETIMELINE

Before it's inevitable destruction, Solland had possessed one of the strongest military’s of the empire. File upon file of state troops had marched out against Solland's many enemies and almost always they returned battered yet triumphant in the field.

After the fall of Solland and the formation of the Order, things changed dramatically. No more were seen the ranks of state troops or the thundering cannons and mortars. The Order's forces, vastly diminished in size, now rely on local recruitment in to bolster their ranks.

An Order crusade can comprise of a few soldiers or many hundreds of different sects, each with its own marshal. Pikemen from Bretonnia, crossbows from Tilea, macemen of Estalia, and even the slowly rebuilding sword brethren of Solland all march in tandem against their foes. The elite crusaders are sometimes joined by either fiery zealots or humble pilgrims. Leading these men are the Großkompters, second only to their regional Hochmeister, who are assisted by cadres of veteran crusaders, war-mages, and deafening black monks.

Perhaps the most well known of the Order are it's knights. From the lowly Jüngerbruder, apprentices at war, to the steadfast Halbrüder, their loyal teachers, these knights bring the wrath of Solland down on all those who threaten her. But perhaps the most fabled of these knights is the dreaded Ritterbrüder. Riding on dark steeds these almost supernatural warriors fight with the strength of twenty men and the horned helms they wear inspire fear in even the most brave of men.

On the following pages are the complete rules forthe models in the Order army. Each entry includesthe models profile and special rules. This isnormally in combination with the army list onpages (?) to create a force that can be used in aone-off game in Warhammer. However, players canalso design scenarios with specific forces involved,or run a series of games in a campaign, both ofwhich may well use the information in this sectionwithout recourse to the Order army list.

Special RulesMany troop types have special rules to reflect their unique nature and abilities, and these are explained in the individual Bestiary entries that follow. To save space and repetition, where a model has a special rule that is explained in the Warhammer rulebook, only the name of the rule is given in this section. Refer to the special rules section of Warhammer for the full details of how the rule works. Similarly, the following rule applies to most units in this Bestiary, and as such is detailed here:

Wave of Steel and Iron: Over hundreds of years the soldiers of the order have become some of the most disciplined armies to march across the old world. However in battle the heavily armored foot soldiers crash in a tide of iron against their foes. Models with this rule in the front rank of a horde formation inflict1 impact hit at their base strength value when they charge.

Full Plate Armor: These all-enclosing suits of armor are crafted by Order master smiths and are kept in high honor by the Order provinces in their personal collections. These suits of armor are very rare, but undoubtedly offer the best protection available to warriors of the Order Army. Full Plate Armor confers a 4+ armor save to its wearer.

Horned Dark Helms: Cursed by the foul taint of Darak's betrayal, the orders most powerful knights ride to war wearing horned helms designed to taunt the forces of chaos and inspire fear in all who look upon them. Any unit charged by a model with this rule must take a leadership test in the same way as if they were charged by a model causing terror

Crusaders/Sollanders: While most of Sollands pitiful remains march among the orders ranks, there are those who preferred an attempt at new lives. These farmers, craftsmen, and militia are not part of the crusading forces in most cases. However should the need be great or the cause just these men will take up arms and go to war along with their brothers in armor. Any unit you take with the "Crusader" trait allows you to take a single "Sollander" unit of equal or less models. Sollander units may not be fielded otherwise.

In addition, All units that do not have the Sollander trait do not have to take panic tests caused by units that have the Sollander Trait.

BESTIARYBESTIARYIn this section you will find information and rules for all of the different warriors, heroes, creatures and war machines in the Order army. At the end of the section are some special characters – famous men of the Order of Solland that you can field in your army.

Since the time of the founding of the Order the highest rank officers of the Hochmeisters are the Großkompter. They lead the armies into battle wherever they may go. However the position of Großkompter is not simply one of military command. It is a title of lordship and stewardship over part of the Hochmeisters lands. The Großkompter is expected to watch over and care for those he has sworn to lead. He acts as the judge, jury, and executioner for all civil disputes within his jurisdiction. This has of course led to some problems when unwise, unlawful, or plain cruel Großkompter either abused their power or simply could not keep their subjects in line. The hope, of course, is that each Hochmeister keeps a close eye on his Großkompter so that they are kept in check and not allowed to destroy the lands of the Order. However in one famous episode a Großkompter attempted to claim that as lord of the lands the Hochmeister had given his power up to him. this was rectified when almost two-hundred knights galloped into the castle and proceeded to drag the helpless Komptur by ropes from Bretonnia to Estalia.

Of course the true might of the Großkompter has been in war. They command sizable forces of both knights and supporting troops. Rarely a Großkompter will be able to command a force of the dreaded RitterBrüder but it has been a common sight to see household guards consisting of nothing less than the dreaded black knights. With the power of the heavy knights, crusaders of righteousness, and hundreds if not thousands of Imperial conscripts, there is nothing that will not be crushed under the Großkompters leadership.

Under the Großkompter serve a tank of men known as the Marshals. These men are small land owners among the Order who command lesser forces of crusaders. When the time comes for the Order to march the Großkompters call upon their Marshals to rally what men they can to the gathering point. Normally each marshal can only bring a few dozen men but once together the army can be anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand in the case of a full call to arms. Like the Großkompter, Marshals are great commanders in battle, as well as more than capable fighters.

Mages are outcasts from the colleges of magic having delved into darker arts in attempts to increase their personal power. Some went to work as mercenaries for varies factions in the old world. Some went on trips to far away Ind or Cathey to learn more. Yet more were hunted down by witch hunters of the Empire. To this day most are considered a blight on civilized peoples and some have bounties greater than rouge princes.

The Order did not have the ability to call upon the colleges of magic to join them, nor did they want to rely on mercenaries to fill their lack of magic support. So the Hochmeisters came up with a plan to indoctrinate mages into their ranks by offering a clean slate. Needless to say the effect was instantaneous and mages flocked to join the Orders ranks for a degree of protection and freedom. This did not go unnoticed by the witch hunters.

The Witch hunters and their assorted minions demanded that the Odrer hand over all their indoctrinated mages. When the Order refused one of the greatest battles in the orders history erupted in the year 2439. The Orders headquarters in Pheildorf was almost burned to the ground and the garrison was hard pressed. The day was saved when the Orders mages unleashed a wave of horrifying power, driving off the inquisitors.

The orgin of the black monks is, along with much of the story of Solland, a sad tale. One of the surviving Warrior priests from the battle of Sollands crown was present at the sacking of Pfeildorf. There he witnessed such atrocities that he blinded himself out of a madness. The Priest, named Oromus, recovered over the years in the ruins. As people began to flock back to the city he continued to administer to them as their priest. But abandoned his personal connection with Sigmar. All his acolytes did so as well and before long the priesthood of the city was no more, and the Black Monks of Solland were born. Lack of prayers does not mean the Monks are powerless though. In battle they channel the fury of their kinsmen into a unified force. Sometime aiding in commanding of the army with less than savory war cries. They are soldier and servant both, able to do what is required of them

Blessing of the Abyss: Any unit joined by a Black monk gains the Devastating charge Special rule.

Warcry: At the beginning of the players turn the monk may shout a horrible war cry to encourage his fellow soldiers to battle. The warcry affects an allied Infantry unit within 12" of the monk. On a 2+ the warcry is heard and the unit gains +1 to their movement. on a 1 the unit has not heard or misheard the order and it simply makes loud noise. The cry lasts until the beginning of the next player turn. if any enemy unit is within 12" of the monk the cry is only heard on a 5+ as the battle begins to overpower his shouting.

Inspire: any unit with the "Crusader" rule within 3" gains +1 WS. RitterBrüder may never gain this advantage as they despise crusaders.

The Elite: Crusader champions may never join units.

Those who choose crusading over the path of knighthood tend to end up being killed in foreign lands and many who don't die tend to stop crusading after watching their friends die on unknown soil.

There are those, however, who actually like the thrill of crusading. While the crusades were devised as a means to punish failing the trials of the Ritterbrüder, they were also meant as one of the primary means of income for the Order. Plunder is by no small means an encouraging benefit to those who leave on this missions. Some men are just exceptional fighters who have stayed alive in both failed and successful crusades to become quite wealthy.

At first the Order wished to condemn these men. Repeat crusaders were seen as an abuse of the system and were costing the Order money. But after the siege of Lohai in Cathey, where three crusader champions charging into a breach in the wall changed what was a mass route into a charge that baffled and confounded the defenders, the Order had a change of heart.

The Order now allows these Elite crusaders to continue their quests for riches. While the plunder they take for themselves is not unsubstantial, the amount have successful crusades has risen overall, and so both The Order as a whole, and these Elites profit.

The Order does not make use of the standard state troops like the rest of the Empire. Instead they have a smaller, but more heavily armored, core of men. Trained to move quickly while encumbered by the mail, these men can cross the same distance in the same time as a more lightly armored troop. And when the battle lines meet, the soldiers charge in a thundering rush towards their foe. The crash of metal against flesh leads to many foes simply being trampled underfoot and crushed by steel encased feet. Those who are still standing are cut down by halbards or simply turn to run. Soldiers are taught never to fall, for if they do, the metal encased war machine of the Order will not stop.

Special Rules:Crusaders

When the Order marches off on crusades, it needs a steady supply of food. Without a vast enough land to supply a mobile army, the crusades rely on foraging and hunting in Order to sustain themselves. Thankfully most of the men of Pfeildorf are skilled hunters, and those men with little capability in war are still excellent at providing some rabbit stew for the troops. In battle these men are no true soldiers, but they are still used to harass enemy lines. It is this disruption that makes the powerful charge of the knights hit home all the harder. Should they be attacked they melt back through their own lines and no one thinks worse of them for it. If they should survive, these men are well paid for their service.

The Fortress of Tyra is located deep within the land of Bretonnia, specifically Brionne. While the Order did win the land they have had to defend it from first the Estalians and later the Bretonnians themselves. For this reason the pike has been imported from Tilea and later Estalia to combat the many Knights that roam the land. This adaptation did not come easily as it takes great courage to stand in the face of a charging horse, but the will of the Order is strong. Now Tyra's garrison consist mostly of the giant pikes and all across the Order more and more pikes have been seen as the smaller spears are abandoned.

The Fortress of El doro in Estalia didn’t have to fight any form of knights. Instead its soul purpose was to maintain the subjugation of the nearby city of Azuara. For this purpose they adapted use of the mace as a weapon. They now serve as a main unit of regular Order forces.

Mace: maces are hand weapons with the armor piercing rule.

Zealots are pilgrims who, upon seeing the devastation of their homelands, have taken up arms against the enemies of the empire. while not quite the mindless fanatics that flagellants are, zealots still have a fiery determination to return all the pain and suffering bestowed upon them by their foes. An Order crusade can usually count on being followed by a core of Zealots eager for battle and bloodshed. But should the fighting turn south it is not uncommon for the spirit of vengeance to leave these men and see them run to the hills like like sheep from a wolf. Still, a wise commander remembers the uses of Zealots and they are still a welcome sight on the battlefield.

Even after its sack, there are those men of Solland who wish to return to Pfeildorf in order to rebuild and resettle the land. While the city has long since been rebuilt many Sollanders travel the roads leading to and from it. These men trail in the wake of great crusades both for a degree of protection and a sense of unity with the men of the Order. If a battle occurs it is not uncommon for these men to join the Order, though they tend to run at the first sign of defeat. This mutual understanding has lead to the Order taking greater part in the protection of Pfeildorfs roadways. Sometimes even sending armored parties out to clear out the bandits. These actions have helped increase the overall safety of Solland and succeeding in building up the local economy.

When the order expanded south into Tilea, they did what they did best. They constructed the Fortress of Venitzia to monitor the realm of Verezzo. However when Miragliano entered Verezzo in 2495 the Order did not have a strong enough garrison to withstand the besieging forces. In a desperate attempt to reinforce the Crossbowmen defending the walls the Order added the Tilean Pavise to their armament. While the adapters of the large wooden shield would not survive the battle, the idea would and after reconquering the fort in 2504 importation of the pavise became a top priority for the order.

The warriors of Solland have past down the tradition of dismounting and fighting on foot for many centuries. They have been trained in the ways of Swi-handers and utilize them very proficiently while grouped together in units of sword brethren. Wearing even heavier armor than other members, these monoliths of black-steel create an aura of fear and suspense in those who fight them. More importantly they never run from a battle. Entire units of swordsmen have been cut down against a superior foe rather than give up the field. More recently the Order has established sword brethren units in other provinces but the original concept of the brotherhood originated in Solland and it is there that the greatest swi-handed swordsmen march from

The knights who fail the trial of four or who do not succeed in training a pupil are sent on crusades to bring in treasure for the order. If they return with enough to please the order they are allowed to return to the knightly ranks and try again. surprisingly enough, most knights don't wish to continue their training. Preferring the riches and excitement of crusading.

To become a member of the RitterBrüder one must advance through the ranks of the sword brethren. If they catch the eye of a HalBrüder then they become his Jünger Bruder or “younger brother” . The HalBrüder teaches his pupil everything he knows, the history of the order, the way of the knight, the mastery of war, and the way to install fear. In battle these knights are encouraged to run forwards and defeat a foe of worth. This helps prove their abilities for advancement.


After passing the Trial of four, the Jüngerbruder are made Halbrüder or “half-brothers” These knights are a match for most of the knightly orders of the empire and Bretonnia. They are the second stage of the Orders knights. When they have successfully trained a pupil they are given the chance to become a Ritterbrüder. Some refuse the honor as its a life oath. Most choose the chance to become one of the fabled dark knights.

•Stubborn•Hates Undead (any model listed as undead counts)

Greth Ultigen, a descendant of Gerath, was the first Hochmiester of the order of Solland. Having achieved great prestige and honor for the Order with his previous exploits against Vlad von Carstein he was chosen to lead in the troubling times of a civil war. Greth took to his command well and managed to settle the debate over Tyra's independence by instating the "free territories" pact which allowed Tyra to run itself in whatever way it saw fit so long as the Hochmiester still had the power to command its military. Shortly afterward Greth found himself battling Konrad von Carstein in the empire helping to defeat his army of necromancers. Finally at the old age of 78 he resigned his command electing Tolo Dnavo to succeed him. He rode off with any knights who would follow to do battle with Manfred von Carstein and it is uncertain if he died at the Battle of Hel-Finn

The Sword of Gerath and the Armor of the Hochmiesters:The sword of the greatest knight in the order and dwarven forged plate enchanted with runeswork exactly the same way as they do in the orders rules (+1S,A,WS,I, T, counts as full plate and a 5+ ward save), however he and units within 12" do not suffer the -1 leadership penalty, and Greth may be the armies general.

The Holy ShieldTaken long ago in crusade against Araby, the holy shield belonged to Eldrad the last count of Solland, after his death his shield was recovered and placed with other artifacts in the orders holds. Greth was the only one to use it in battle and it was shattered whilst fighting KonradThe holy shield grants +2 to Greths armor save while dismounted (making him have a 2+ on foot) and 1 while mounted (so 1+ on horse) in addition, if Greth should be killed by combat or shooting (not overruns) the shield shatters and he ignores the wound and any others suffered and for the rest of the phase.

Darak-kal was descendant of a great noble family in the empire. He joined the order at a young age for wealth and glory seeking but shaped up and joined the ranks of the fabled Ritterbrüder. when the great storm of chaos erupted Darak was in the forefront of the armies charging the chaos lines at Kisliev. After the horrific battle Darak was left behind with a unit of knights to help Kisliev defend herself from further intrusions. The Kislievits gave him any land he freed from the marauding forces of evil and so land he acquired. massive amounts of open country and forests. However his constant victories lead him only to seek more conquest and so he lead his men north into the Norse-lands and later the chaos wastes. It was here he found the great axe known as the Terralith. a huge behemoth with a blade that ran a solid 2 feet across almost more like a pike or halberd. however the power of chaos within the axe corrupted Darak. When he returned to Kisliev he began systematically slaughtering everything in his path. He rampaged through the Empire, the Norse-lands, dwarf holds, Kisliev, goblin strongholds and more. He captured and tamed the Black Dragon Onyx and with it rode to war for many decades. however an army of numberless skaven from Hell-pit finally stopped his army cold and he fled to the border princes. there he spent many centuries trying to build up a force again but was finally rooted out and slain by the order. His dark helm and those of his followers are now worn by the ritterbrüder in remembrance and taunting chaos.

The Terralith: Darak didn't start out evil. but with the power of the Terralith flowing through him he was unstoppable when he became so.The Terralith grants Darak +2 strength. no armor saves may be taken against wound suffered from the Terralith and each wound is multiplied by d3.

Darak's Horrifying helm: works the same as main rules.

Chaos Armor:warped and twisted Darak's once beautiful armor has now become like obsidian and marble.The chaos armor grants Darak a 4+ save, in addition it grants him a 4+ ward save.

The Dark BetrayerThe order never forgot about Darak, they hunted him for many centuries until he was finally brought to justice.Darak must be the armies general, in addition, any order army may not use the following unitsPikemen of TyraCrossbowmen of VenitziaMacemen of El-DoroSword Brethren of SollandArcher militia.and no other named characters.

However the following units become 1+ and a core unitDismounted Ritterbrüder

Butcher:Darak slaughtered countless persons on his rampage. most would like revenge.Darak-kal has the Hatred rule and all units in his army gain hatred, in addition, Empire, Order of Solland, Kisliev, Norse, Chaos (deamons, warriors, dwarves, beastmen), Dwarves, Skaven, and Orcs & Goblins all hate Darak and his army.

Equipment:•Treasures untold! •Enchanted plate•Erebus

Special Rules•Unbreakable (he may only pass this on to a unit of crusaders)•Lord of Crusaders•Despised•Wave of Steel and Iron

For many years Willhelm has sailed out of the ports of the old world with armies at his command. empires, ruins, nations, and common folk fear the sight of the black ships. Ind has felt the tread of his boots, Cathey has tasted he edge of his sword, Nippon has known the wrath of his coming. Countless treasures and artifacts have been stolen and he returns countless riches to the order headquarters. Considered the Leader of all crusaders and a great warrior, Willhelm takes up Erebus to go treasure seeking once more.

Erebus:Erebus is a true claymore. over 5 feet long and serrated with barbs and spikes, the weapon is more blunt than blade. However because of sacred enchantments it cuts threw protective magics.Great weapon, in addition, any successful ward save made by a model wounded by Erebus must be rerolled.

Treasures untold!:Having traveled and looted items from every possible place looting can occur. Willhelm gives out much of his wealth to the crusade as well as blessings and enchanted bladesAny unit within 12" of Willhelm may chose to take a gift of treasure at the start of the player that controls him's turn and once before the game starts. roll on the following able for each unit that does. at the start of any following turn of the player the controls him the unit may chose to exchange for another treasure. This may not be done if the unit is in combat or if Willhelm is in combat and any unit that does so may not move the turn it exchanges.

1: nothing, the treasure has no value other than gold. the unit is stupid for the duration of the turn (and counts as having failed their stupidity test)

2: Cathey long sword: these elegant blades allow for greater swordsmanship. Grants +1 WS, +1I and +1S.

3: Nippon Kami Shrines: The small carry able shrines confer a blessing to the holder, grants a 6+ ward save.

5: Lustrian Artifacts: The gold makes men fight vigorously, the model gains frenzy

6: Araby Incense: Inhaled deeply the incense inspires supreme confidence, the model gains unbreakable.

Enchanted plate:Willhelm's armor has been sanctified by priests of Sigmar, granting him protection by magic as well as by blade3+ armor save, 5+ ward save

Lord of Crusaders:Willhelm's mere presence sends men in an uproar as he leads them on vast voyages into the unknown.Willhelm has the Inspire rule as a Crusader Champion. however this rule is extended to all friendly models within 12"In addition, Crusaders within this area are stubborn.

In addition, If Willhelm is the armies general. His army gains hatred of the following armies: Araby, Tomb Kings, Nippon, Cathey, Ind, Lizardmen, and Amazons. these armies also hate Willhelm's army as well as fear Willhelm.

Despised:

22

For all his glory and riches, Willhelm is shunned by all true knights of the order. As Willhelm failed the trial of the RitterBrüder and never returned to test his faith again, the sacred knights truly hate and despise him if Willhelm is in the army no RitterBrüder of any type (this includes dismounted and Fliegen) may be taken as well.

Marius, Patriarch of Pfeildorf

Points: 150Marius M___WS___BS___S___T___W____I___A___Ld4___4____3____4___4___3____4___3___9

Equipment:•Full Plate Armor•Scythe•The Book of Solland

Mount:•May mount the "Shrine of the Fallen Saints" for 200 points

Special Rules:•Leader of the masses•Roaring Constitution•Wave of Steel and Iron

Marius, while not a member of the order originally, was a priest located in the rebuilding city of Pfeildorf. He lived his life in peace and harmony until the faithful day an orc Waaagh was spotted less than a weeks travel from the struggling community. As the city began an evacuation Marius began to work. he spent hours in the forge smelting iron and hammering at steel until he had fashioned for himself a crude set of armor. Taking up a farmers scythe he began to preach to the men of the city, speaking of the bravery of men and the city itself. Slowly but surely a band of followers crowded around him, until before long he had no less than half the city roaring at his sermons. He gave the common man hope and even managed to convince the mayor to requisition aid rather than flee. As the orc horde approached Marius and the people of Pfeildorf manned the walls with every ranged devise they could muster, and as the sea of green crashed into the walls the men held for three weeks before being forced to retreat into the city itself. Bitter street fighting erupted and people could not run for fear of slipping on the blood washed pavement. Marius himself rallied men at his church and there they held the line on top of a wooden cart. But just as the men prepared to make a final stand horns were heard and the Order of Solland entered the city through secret ways only they knew of. The bewildered orcs, caught between the citizens of the city and the heavily armored foot knights were all but annihilated. Marius was offered a position of high Marshal in the Order but declined in favor of remaining in Pfeildorf to continue his services as a priest. This would have been the end of Marius military career had he not awoken from a nightmare the next morning. He has never said a word of what transpired in his dream but it is rumored that Eric the young showed him a vision of what would come of a world without his intervention. Marius repaired the cart he had stood on his own, working in grim silence. eventually he brought out the shields of those who had fallen at his side and added them to the woodwork, naming it his "Shrine of the Fallen Saints" this wooden carriage has been pushed from one corner of the old world to the other by the men who defended Pfeildorf, and to this very day Marius can be heard giving sermons to his troops.

The Book of Solland:this book narrates all the great deeds of the men of Solland, it is her that Marius both recollects past deeds and writes in new ones as he preaches.Marius gets +1 on any attempts to cast Black monk bound spells.

Leader of the Masses:Any army that has Marius as the general reverses the effect of "Sollanders" and "Crusaders". Meaning that any unit you take with the "Sollander" trait allows you to take a single "Crusader" unit of equal or less models. Crusader units may not be fielded otherwise.

23

Roaring Constitution:Marius commands his men with his booming voice from afar. his men are never unable to hear his orders.Marius' Black monk bound spells; "For Solland!", "Sigmar Protects You!", "For Gerath!", "For Death and Glory!", as well as his Warcry, affect all units within 12" of Marius rather than a single unit.

Shrine of the Fallen SaintsM___WS___BS___S___T___W____I___A___Ld4___-____-____5___5___5____-___-___-

Unit type: Unique

Special Rules:•Unbreakable•Blessing of the Righteous•Protection of the Saints•Pushed into Battle•Exemplar guard•Impact hits (d6)•Large Target

Blessing of the Righteous:The Shrine of the Fallen Saints gives Marius a sixth bound spell.

"Epic Speech"Bound level 22, all units within 12" gain the "Righteous fury" special rule.

Protection of the Saints:Marius and the Shrine both have a 4+ ward save. in addition, he, the shrine, and his unit all have MR2

Pushed into battle:The Shrine is deployed inside a single unit of "Order Soldiers". Place the shrine at the front of it's unit,as centrally as possible. Accordingly, the following rules apply.Moving the Shrine of the Fallen SaintsThe unit the Shrine has joined marches, charges, and pursues normally so long as it has at least 10 models. For every model the unit drops below 8, the unit deducts 1" from its move. So, if there were 7 men in the unit, they would have a movement of 3, 6 would have a movement of 2, (etc.). If the unit is reduced to 4 or less models, it cannot move.Terrain:The shrine treats terrain as if it were a chariot.Shooting at the Shrine:An enemy can choose to target either the unit pushing the Shrine or the Shrine of the Fallen Saints itself. Hits against the unit are resolved as normal, but hits against the Shrine are randomized - hitting the Shrine on a 1-4 and Marius on a 5-6The Shrine in combatThe Shrine does d6 impact hits when it charges, Marius may attack anyone in base contact with the Shrine. Enemy models in base contact may choose to attack the Shrine or Marius himself. Attacks against the Shrine must roll to hit as normal.The different sized base of the Shrine means some extrapolation must be done to work out the rank bonus. Count the model as the same number of Men that would normally occupy that space (usually 10)Destroying the ShrineIf the Shrine itself is destroyed, remove the model and place Marius where it was. He will join the unit. This is the Only way Marius can leave the Shrine of the Fallen Saints.

Exemplar guard:The Shrine muse be pushed by a unit of "Order Soldiers". This unit gains the "Sollander" trait and loses its "Crusader" trait. It also gains unbreakable but may never leave the Shrine of the Saints for any reason. Other characters may be deployed in this unit but may not leave the unit for any reason, nor may any character join the unit later in the game. Furthermore, the "Order Soldiers" in the unit are veterans of many battles. They may choose to increase their weapon skill by 1 for 1 point
