FAR NORTH
..::Armylist::..




FAR NORTHREN 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 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 monetarily 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 Ld for rallying test instead of the normal +1 to Ld. However, this cannot take the unit's Ld over 10 as normal.

Sometimes the unit has this special rule listed even if it is partly redundant. Unit may not have option for musician (especially if the 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
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 summertime 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 move 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. Everyone 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 of 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.

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. Id the test is failed, they must charge the closest 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 they 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 maximum of two (2) ranks when calculating combat resolution.

Pinelanders
All folk of Pinelands have lived their whole life in areas that have dense woods. Therefore they can move at full speed in forests, but they cannot still march in them. In addition, all Pinelandish characters may have scout skill for five points.

Farlanders
All folk of 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 cannot still 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 areas around. 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.

Tusker Charge
Whenever horndeers charge, they gain +1 to their strength value until the end of that close combat phase.

Wolf packs - 9pts/model

Options:
-One wolf of the pack may be upgraded to a Moon Howler for additional points cost of 5pts. The Moon Howler counts as a musician.

Special Rules:

Animals
Wolves of Farland are not ever the main core of any army, they are only allies called by the wish of a shaman. Thus, Wolf Packs do not count towards the minimum amount of Core units. In addition, since wolves have always hunted and lived in forests and wilderness, difficult terrain has no effect to wolves' movement, expect watery obstacles and terrain.

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.

-The unit may promote one fiend to an Ancient for additional pointscost of 10. The Wise one 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 forests and so on. 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.

Called by a shaman
Only shamans may communicate with fiends, as they use their own kind of language. Fiends may only be chosen in he army if the army contains a shaman.

The Ancestors 19pts/model

M4 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 to wound roll is made. Instead, the model hit by this way 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 same enemy. There for 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 pray.

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 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 units who are under 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 Steam Tank which is 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 screaming wolf howls.
When successfully cast, roll D6. On 3 or less nothing happens (the wolves did not hear the call). On 4+ all enemy units in the battlefield must make a panic test.

[jts]

Usko tai älä, Word oli oikeassa.

Se on Bestial.

[Rune]

Mäystiä! PDF versiota voitaisiin tuosta tosiaan alkaa väsäämään jossain välissä. Pitäisi vain saada jonkin näköinen mielikuva millaiseksi sen teemme. Conspet artia siihen ainakin tarvittaisiin. Yritetään saada tästä nyt ihan alusta asti ihan oikean armeijakirjan näköinen, kansikuvineen kaikkineen. Ja sitten ne yksiköiden kuvauksetkin, voi herran jumala... No mutta kyllä se siitä. Katsotaan nyt, pitäisi yrittää väkertää jonkin näköinen luonnos koko roskasta. Tai jotain. Jaksaisitko säätää alkuperäislistan tagimerkinnät tuohon, hm? Sekin jo auttaisi, että saataisiin tuo etusivulle.

[Ropetus]

Mitenkäs nämä meidän Familiarimme, joita suunniteltin pari sivua sitten? Onko nämä unohdettu vai mitä niille tehdään? pamp-pu varmaan niistä jotain osaisi säätää, kun häneltähän se idea alunperin lähti.

[Rune]

Jos Pamp-pu vetäisee valmiiksi listan fluffeineen, pistehintoineen, tageineen ja täysin listaan pulttausvalmiina, niin minulle käy paremmin kuin hyvin. Mielelläni ne listassakin näkisin, idea kun ei mikään huonokaan ole.

[SkullCracker]

Tagit laitoin tohon Enklanti versioon (turha viesti?)
edit:lukasin tuon Familiar jutun, joka on ihan murskaava idea!

[Rune]

Jumalan äiti! Siinähän ei nokka tuhissut. Kai tuo on nykyversion mukainen sääntöteknisesti? Tämän päivän aikanako tuon teit? Jos näin, niin voisin addia tuon alkupostiin. Kiitos hyvin, hyvin, hyvin hyvin paljon. Erinomaista.

[SkullCracker]

Juu kyllä tein ihan tänään kun tuli kauhea Far North "himo" xD
Pitäisi olla kunnossa kaikinpuolin (sääntöjenkin osalta).
Siitä Familiar jutusta silleen että voisiko sen laittaa silleen
että on vaikka Shaman of the Earth (familiaarina bear<--lapsi) tai Shaman of the Wise (Owl) ja kaikki maksaisivat yhtä paljon mutta olisivat erilaisia tai silleen Optionina

There is nothing that owls cannot see, and your enemies cant harm thee, for the spirit of the owl is protecting for free
-may have owl familiar +45 pts. owner gains 1 more spell and owner gains 5+ ward save in addition to other bonuses shaman can now cast spells.

oliko liian huono?

vai pitäiskö Familiaarista tehdä VC bloodlinen tyylinen silleen että
Shamaanit osaavat taikoa mutta eivät tiedä taikoja, eri familiaarit antaisivat eri spellejä ja muita bonuksia ja maksaisivat pisteitä

edit:muuten huomasin tuossa Border Rangersin kohalla että yksikön champpa maksaa +6 pts. muuta siinä ei lue mitään mitä se champpa saa statseihin voisiko siihen laittaa että se Tracker saisi long bowin?

[dark-killer]

sanoisin että ehkä 6+ward save olisi parempi tuohon hintaan sillä se saa jo yhen spellin lisää...

[Tapsa]

Banner is covered by furs and blood of all kind of animals and all animals refuse to come near this banner

Tapio on eläinten jumala. Miksi hänen lippunsa olisi VEREN peittämä? Eikö eläinten pikemminkin pitäisi tuntea jonkinlaista sympatiaa tätä lippua kohtaan, ja sen vuoksi kieltäytyä taistelemasta sen kantajia vastaan? Tämä versio antaa ymmärtää, että eläimet pelkäävät lippua. Omasta mielestäni olisi parempi, jos tässä lukisi jotain tyyliin Strange runes cover this banner, but no man can read them. It is told that god Tapio himself has written the runes, and that only animals can understand their message. The text seems to drive them away, leaving the banner's bearer untouched.

Sori että alan valittaa tällaisesta pikkuseikasta, mutta oli ihan pakko päästä nipottamaan...

edit: Ja jos tuo pitkä lista tällä sivulla on täsmälleen sama kuin ykkössivullakin, sen voisi poistaa täältä ja jättää vain ykkössivulle. Tämä toimenpide eheyttäisi ketjua ja lyhentäisi sitä, tehden siitä helppolukuisemman.

edit2: Kävin lukaisemassa noita FN-taisteluraportteja, ja olin hieman pettynyt niihin koska FN voitti ne kaikki, suurimman osan massacrella. Onko tätä huomioitu mitenkään? Pelitestaus on tietenkin tärkein osa-alue Peräpohjolan kehittämisessä, mutta kun pelitestit tuntuvat osoittavat Far Northin turhan kovaksi, asia jätetään sikseen.

[F-B]

Tapio on metsän jumala.
Mieluummin banneriin joku lvl4 range 16 boundi, jolla voi kasvattaa 6x6 tuumaa ison metsän... tai jotakin...
Tiedän, että on varmaan myöhäistä ehotella tämmösiä, mutta tuli vaan mieleen.


-----> piirtämään farnorth arttia...

[Rune]

Tapsa, paneudun asiaan.

Pelitestauksista sen verran, että siellä ei ole kai kuin yksi taistelu nykyisen listan tiimoilta, joka päätyi massacreen vain kuulemma järkyttävän huonojen heittojen takia beastien osalta. Tai jotain. Testatkaa te muutkin kuin Runefang, varmasti saamme lisää tuloksia. Saatko Tapsa proxytettya itse tai saatko jonkun kaverin pelaamaan vaikka?

[Tapsa]

Saatko Tapsa proxytettya itse tai saatko jonkun kaverin pelaamaan vaikka?

Jaa-a, katsotaan. En nyt ihan lähiaikoina FN-armeijaa aio proxyttää, mutta lähitulevaisuudessa voisin tällaisen pelin pelatakin...

edit: Onko Fiend large target?

[Rune]

Se ei lue siellä. Ei ole.

[Tapsa]

Se ei lue siellä. Ei ole.

Mutta pitäisikö olla? Minkäkokoisiksi nämä nyt sitten loppujen lopuksi ajateltiin? Ovatko ne yli miehenkorkuisia?

[blurred]

Oho...hienon projektin olette pistäneet pystyyn. En noita kaikkia sivuja jaksanut lukea, mutta tässä kuitenkin asioita joita tuli mieleen kun luin listaa:

1) Tuon peuraratsujen 'tusker charge'-erikoissäännön nimi pitäisi muuttaa. Tusk tarkoittaa syöksyhammasta (josta nimi tusker charge)ja syöksyhampaillahan ei ole mitään tekemistä noiden peurojen SARVIhyökkäyksen kanssa. Ennemminkin jotain tyyliin 'horn assault' tjsp.

2) Viimeinen spelli kaipaa mielestäni muokkaamista. Efekti on liian ei-taktinen. Ennemminkin 4+ heitto pois ja kaikki viholliset jotka ovat taistelussa ottavat paniikkitestin.

3) Nuo undead-kaverit ovat ehkä hieman outo unittityyppi. Jotta heistä olisi hyötyä täytyy niitä olla paljon. Tällöin unitti maksaa runsaasti, mutta ei oikeastaan pärjää kenellekään. Erikoishyökkäyskin on hieman outo. T3 hemmot vahingoittuvat 4+, mutta T4 vihulaiset ovat jo melkeinpä voittamattomia näille kavereille (liian vähän attackeja jotta 5+ woundaus onnistuisi). Ehdotan, että muutatte porukan swarm-tyyppiseksi pysäytysunitiksi (tyyliin VC spirit hostit).

4) Brown bearit ovat myös hieman outoja. Mihin näitä tulisi käyttää? Neljä attackia WS3:lla on liian vaisu jotta kukaan jaksaisi näistä vaivaantua. Kun otetaan vielä huomioon ld7 ja 90 pisteen hinta, on karhupoloiset aika jämätavaraa. Ehdottaisin muutokseksi seuraavaa: karhut ovat vieläkin rare-choice, mutta niitä pystyisi ottamaan unitin (tyyliin trollit, dragon ohret jne.) Johtajaksi voisi vielä pistää eräänlaisen Northern beartamerin (kuten skaveneiden rat ogre-packien ruoskanheiluttajat).

Muuten näyttää ihan hienolta. Kun fluffia ja muuta tavaraa heitätte vielä paljon sekaan niin eihän sitä tiedä vaikka GW tuosta innostuisikin (noo...ei kuitenkaan kannata pitää toiveita kovin korkealla ).

Btw, ilmoittaudun concept artin vääntäjäksi, jos tällaista tarvitte.

[pamp-pu]

Btw, ilmoittaudun concept artin vääntäjäksi, jos tällaista tarvitte.

Juu-yh, kaikki apu on tarpeen. Hengentuotteitasi voit lähettää sähköpostiini.

[F-B]

Laitan varmaan ensi viikolla ainakin pari kuvaa, jotka olen piirtänyt.
Yhdessä on great wepalla varustettu, melko tavalliselta muuten näyttävä heebo ja toinen täytyy vielä kattoo...
täytyy valita parhaat.

[pamp-pu]

täytyy valita parhaat.

Älä suotta vaivaudu valkkaamaan parhaita - lähetä minulle vaan kaikki, niin ainakin on runsaampi varasto piirroksia.

[Ar-Senator]

Hmm, sen verran uniikki että vaikea sanoa ennen kuin niitä on kunnolla pelitestattu, ainakin ratsuväelle ovat myrkkyä, mutta hitautensa takia harvemmin tuskin pääsevät päättämään ketä vastaan taistelevat. Voipi olla kyllä pari pistettä liikaa, mutta toisaalta niiden voisi antaa marssia, kun eivät kuitenkaan eivät ole (fluffissa) samanlaisia lyllertäjiä kuin VC:n epäkuolleet. Myös WS:ää ja I:tä voisi nostaa, koska eivätkös nämä ole olleet eläessään Tosi Kovia Jätkiä? Ws 4 ainakin, 5 jos oikein villiksi heittäydytään. Commandin hintaa voisi nostaa, 12/12/6. Ja varustukseksi voisi hand weaponin tilalle vaihtaa freezing touchin, kun eihän ne oikeasti mitään käsiasetta käytä.

Niin, tuli tämä asia taas mieleen, ja tämän alunperin postatessani kukaan ei kerennyt vastata, kun olivat familiaareista niin tohkeissaan. Kommenttia?

Ja keksin, miten tuon "called by a shaman"- säännön saisi korvattua. Tehdään sellainen familiaari, jolla saa ostaa tietyn pistemäärän elukoita, fiendejä ja ancestoreita. En sitten tiedä onko tässä mitään järkeä, tuli vain tuollainen mieleen.
