Nyt, vaikka käyttäjäkaarimme onkin vähentynyt, jatkamme yhä listan säätämistä päämääränä ensin nettilevitys, lopulta GW:n hyväksyminen ja ehkä jopa Annual, tai White Dwarf. Jossain välissä homma oli mennä aika harakoille, mutta sitten tapahtui ihme, ja Kuusikeiju laskeutui taivaasta. roska kääntyi päälaelleen, luojan kiitos. Nyt saimme aloittaa melkein alusta, mutta sitä samaa kaavaa kun olemme jatkaneet tähänkin mennessä, niin jatkamme yhä. Minä, Rune, vastaan armeijalistasta, muut vastaavat muusta. Seuraava askel on saada armeijalista itsessään nettilevitykseen, ehkä jonkun asiansa osaavan nettisivujentekijän käsien kautta.

FAR NORTH
..::Armylist::..
FAR NORTHERN SPECIAL RULES:
'Northern Traditions
The traditions of 'northern people date back to the ancient days. Every new thread that surrounds the northern folk makes them a bit stronger, and the men of Far North are renowned for being some of the most stubborn and iron-willed men in the Old World. Some rather dubious scholars have even claimed them to be exceptionally tall dwarves with much less hair! They have never given ground for enemy easily, and even if the 'northern warriors momentarily hesitate, the sound of traditional birch bark horns gives them what they need to restore their lost courage.
Any unit with 'Northern Traditions special rule cannot have its Ld -value reduced below 5 by combat resolution. Additionally, if the unit has a musician, he will carry a traditional 'northern birch bark horn, giving +2 to the units Ld for rallying test instead of the normal +1. However, this cannot take the unit's Ld over 10 as normal.
Sometimes a unit has this special rule listed even if it is partly redundant: The unit may not have option for musician (especially if the unit happens to be a Character), or it might have better psychology rules like Stubborn. This rule is always listed if the unit can even partly benefit of this rule.
Hiking equipment
Northern Border Rangers use specially designed hiking equipment to travel great distances in wilderness with considerable speed. Many 'Northern heroes have been members of Border Ranger's, so they can use their equipment with skill. During wintertime they use skis and sticks, but during summer they use legendary birch bark shoes, that make runners step much lighter, especially in forests and mountains. Models using Hiking Equipment gain +1 M. They may now move in difficult terrain without any penalties. For them very difficult terrain is considered only difficult. They may even march in difficult and very difficult terrain.
'Northern tribes
In Far North, people have divided in small groups and live hunting and with everything they can find from deep forests, pure watered lakes or large areas of grass filled plains. As where 'Northern people live, they can be roughly categorized in three different tribes; Harmlanders, Pinelanders and Farlanders. All of these tribes have their own reasons to fight and their own ways of living and fighting. All models in a Far Northern army must be from some these tribes. An army may include more than one type of tribe members, for example two units of Harmlanders, a Pinelander hero and one unit of Farlanders.
However, these tribes have certainly lived trough a lot, but still live seperated and divided into small groups of people, and customs between tribes may vary a lot. Because of this, a character from a certain tribe may not join any unit from another tribe than his, and units from diffirent tribes than the army's general may not use his leadership in any circumstances.
Harmlanders
Harmlanders are the toughest people in all Far North. The bitterness of losing their beloved lakes never eases in their mind, and from that bitterness they draw the anger to fight in order to defend what is left of their original homelands. Therefore Harmlanders hate all enemies, regardless of who they are. As well, all harmlandish units and characters must make a Ld test whenever they are in charge range of an enemy unit. If the test is passed, the unit can move as normal. If the test is failed, they must charge the closest enemy unit in their charge range. Make this test after Frenzy. Also, Harmlanders are so angered of seeing, or fighting, invaders of their beautiful land, and most of all because they lack military discipline, they cannot make use of all potential of fighting in numbers. Their ranks won't push friendly warriors onwards to battle; the ranks will most likely push themselves to battle alongside their friends. Because of this, Harmlandish units may only benefit of a maximum of two (2) ranks when calculating combat resolution.
Pinelanders
All of the folk of the Pinelands have lived their whole life in areas that have dense woods. Therefore they can move at full speed in forests, but they still can’t march in them. In addition, all Pinelandish characters may have the scout skill for five points.
Farlanders
All of the folk of the Farland have lived their whole life in areas that have lots of hills and mountains. Therefore they can move at full speed on hills and mountains, but they still can’t march in them. Also, because of the acts of Kislev in the war of Thousand Lakes, all Farlanders hate all Kislevites
Horndeers
Horndeers are large animals that roam the forests and plains of Far North and the surrounding areas. A little smaller than a moose, but still an impressive sight as an animal, the Far Northern men have managed to tame some of the wild beasts, and turn their speed and strength in charge to their benefit. When a horse is commonly used in southern parts of Old World, a horndeer is a little slower, but their grand horns make their charge much more effective, even though a horse is trained in attack and fighting. Its structure is also heavier and stronger than of horndeers, so it may sustain the strength it contains, whilst a horndeers strength lies in it's horns and the great blow they deliver to an opponent due the great speed.
M7 Ws3 Bs0 S3 T3 W1 I3 A1 Ld5
Tusker Charge
Whenever horndeers charge, they gain +1 to their strength value until the end of that close combat phase.

Unit size: 3+
options:
-When choosing 'Northern fiends, you must choose which kind of fiends they are. Your whole unit of fiends must be the same species, chosen from the list below:
-Snow fiends (enemies trying to hit Snow fiends suffers a -1 to hit roll in close combat. Makes fiends flammable due the thick fur covering them) 5pts. extra per fiend.
-Cave fiend (+4 scaly skin, due the hardened skin these fiends need in mountain terrain) 10 pts. extra per fiend.
-Forest fiend (may move trough woods without penalty) 5 pts. extra per fiend.
-The unit may promote one fiend to an Ancient for additional pointscost of 10. The Ancient gains +1 attack.
Special Rules:
Fear, Bestial cunning, Called by a shaman, 'Northern traditions
Bestial cunning
The fiends of Far North are beasts nevertheless, but cunning and intelligent. The 'northern shamans communicate with these fiends, and know their own language that the fiends use. They are as well protecting their homeland from invaders and people who claim to rot and destroy the lands.
But, the fiends will not take orders from, or understand the local hero leading the 'Northern force, and so cannot use the generals Ld in any case, not use any re-rolls due BSB. In addition to this, fiends have lived their whole lives in wilderness, and know how to move in wilderness. After deployment, and after any scouts have been deployed, the fiends may make an additional move with their basic movement value, but may not march. They can still charge, if there are any enemies within their charge range, and in line of sight.
Called by a shaman
Only shamans may communicate with fiends, as they use their own kind of language. Fiends may only be chosen in the army if the army contains a shaman.

The Ancestors 19pts/model
M6 Ws3 Bs3 S3 T3 W1 I1 A1 Ld7
Unit size: 5-15
Weapon's and equipment:
Hand weapons
Options:
-One Ancestor may be promoted to a Champion of Dead for 10 points. He gains +1 A.
-One Ancestor may be promoted to a Standard bearer for 10 points.
-One Ancestor may be promoted to a musician for 5 points.
Special Rules:
Fear, Ethereal, The spirit world, The undead, Immune to Psychology, Aura of Sorrow
The spirit world
Ancestors are not from this material world we know. They cannot be harmed by normal weapons we possess, but nevertheless they cannot harm any flesh in any way with their own weapons. Only weapon they have is their fearsome appearance and ice cold and unnatural touch. Whenever an Ancestor hits it's opponent, no roll to wound is made. Instead, the model hit makes an instant toughness test (ie. rolls a d6 and compares it to his T attribute). If the test is passed, the model survives the fatal cold strike, and nothing else happens. If the test is failed, however, the enemy model suffers one instant wound, with no armour saves allowed. Any magical saves (Ward saves and saves from magical armour, for example) may be made as normal.
The undead
Yet, even it is not possible to destroy an Ancestor with any steel sword we possess, Ancestors' existence is based on the fear and doubt of enemy’s mind. Whenever Ancestors lose in close combat, they do not have to make any break tests. They always hold their ground. But, when they lose the combat, the unit suffers as many wounds as Ancestors have lost the combat. For example, Ancestors lose the combat by 2, and so 2 Ancestors lose the grip of this world instantly and disappeared. The Ancestors may not be joined by characters, excluding Champion of Dead. And, as the dead do not have mind of their own, and a shaman keeps them summoned, their reactions are not the best there is. So, Ancestors may not march in any situation.
Aura of Sorrow
Not every 'Northern warrior is pleased to see their dead relatives, maybe even family members, fighting alongside against the same enemy. Therefore any unit, friend or foe, decrease their Ld value by 1 when being within 8" of Ancestors.
Ethereal
The Ancestors may not be harmed at all by any mundane weapon. Only magical items, weapons and magic spells affect the Ancestors.

You may include up to 2 bears as a Rare choice
Unit size: 1 bear
Weapons: Fangs and teeth
Special rules:
cause fear, thick skin, Chase, Animal
thick skin
Gives the bear 4+ armour save, which is affected by armour save modifiers as normal
Chase
Brown bear will always pursue a fleeing enemy. Even shamans' control cannot stop the wild bear from chasing it's prey.
Animal
Since bears have always hunted and lived in forests and wilderness, difficult terrain has no effect to bears' movement, expect watery obstacles and terrain.
_____________________________________________________________
LORE
Lore of Far North
This lore is used by the most potent shamans in Far North. In the snowy pine forest of Far North, these ancient shamans practice their spells to control the nature of Far North.
1. Flock of Crows..............................Cast on 5+
The shaman summons a large flock of enchanted crows of Far North. These magical birds attack the enemies with their sharp talons and vicious beaks.
When cast, the spell causes 2D6 Strength 2 hits on a single enemy unit within 24” of the caster.
2. Call of the Wilderness……………………..Cast on 6+
Remains in play
When the people of Far North get affected by this spell, they become surefooted and agile and can walk in the densest of woods and bogs.
Cast on a friendly Far Northern unit. While affected, the unit may move through any difficult or very difficult terrain with no penalties.
3. Mosquito swarm............................Cast on 7+
Remains in play.
The shaman calls upon the most vicious mosquitoes from Far North. These tiny bugs create a great pain for the enemy when they fly into their eyes and start to suck blood from their enemies.
The spell affects one enemy unit within 24” of the caster. The affected unit suffers a -1 to hit with all shooting and close combat attacks they make.
4. Frostwinds........................................Cast on 8+ Remains in Play
When a shaman casts this spell, a huge blizzard surrounds one enemy unit. This causes some enemies to collapse from cold and chills their body into a junk of frozen flesh.
The spell affects one enemy unit within 24” in line of sight of the caster. The affected unit suffers 2D6 Strength 2 hits in the beginning of every magic phase (both 'Northern player and the enemy). If the unit suffers any casualties it may not shoot in their next shooting phase. This spell remains in play until the caster wishes to end it (which he may do anytime), decides to use another spell or is slain.
5. The Song of The Great Swamp……………………Cast on 11+
This spell twists the earth into a deep swamp which devours anyone who steps into it.
When the spell is successfully cast, the player places the small round template anywhere within 18” and in his line of sight. No Far Northern units can be under the template. Any enemy models which are even touched by the template must make an initiative test or get swallowed into the summoned swamp (count as slain). No armour saves are allowed against this spell (armour doesn’t help you from sinking into a swamp), but ward saves are possible. Characters can make a “Look out sir” throw normally. For the next movement phase, the template counts as difficult terrain. Note that this difficult terrain is no longer a magical effect so it can affect even a Steam Tank which is normally immune to spells.
6. Wolf's Howl...........................................Cast on 12+
The shaman starts to howl like a wolf, trying to call all the wolves of Far North. If they hear the call, the entire battlefield is filled with terrible wolf howls.
When successfully cast, the wolves have heared the shaman's call, and their howl is horrible to hear. Every unit, yes, every, in close combat at the very moment the spell is cast, must take a panic test. Units immune to psychology are immune to the effect.
