I lastly completed up the Cranium Altar!
The Cranium Altar is “Faction Terrain” for the Blades of Khorne. Most factions in Age of Sigmar have some type of Faction Terrain that may be arrange on the sector of battle and provides some type of profit.
I THINK in earlier editions, the faction terrain had some extent worth to it (or perhaps I am simply considering of Infinite Spells – I KNOW they did) however there may be zero price to bringing them alongside (as with Infinite Spells, now!)… which is a intelligent strategy to get everybody to purchase them – If everybody else is enjoying with them and gaining no matter profit they provide, you are sort of hamstringing youself is you DON’T!?
That is not totally the explanation I purchased it. I additionally simply assume it appears sort of cool…
I do assume it is slightly foolish that BOTH SIDES can make use of Faction Terrain… Like, how does that work… two armies method one another they usually say; “hang on, let me build my altar to the Blood God… yeah, you go ahead and build your thing too…” It could make extra sense if the get together defending obtained to deploy it… however then, there must be some benefit to being attacker.
Possibly they’re all magically summoned… or not-so-magically summoned within the case of the Cranium Altar of Khorne!
Ah effectively…

Different facet of Cranium Altar
Cranium Altar with Slaughterpriest (and a few mates!)
What the Cranium altar does is whereas there’s a Slaughterpriest on there they achieve +1 to Chanting rolls (which is a d6 roll so, 16.67% improve in likelihood of success) and any assaults directed on the priest hit the Altar first (Which has a 4+ save – higher than the Slaughterpriest’s 5+ save – and 10 well being to burn by earlier than you begin affecting the priest). Additionally, invocations and prayers and different talents which have a variety are measured from the Cranium Altar as an alternative of the Slaughterpriest they usually may also try and Banish D3 Infinite Spells inside 18″.
Possibly not recreation altering stuff… however advantages, for positive… which might be FREE (when it comes to the point-cost inside the recreation)… in case you spend actual world {dollars} and purchase that further factor in your military…
Now that that is out of the way in which and cleared off an enormous chunk of the workbench… I really want to simply end off these Skullreapers (one or two ARE utterly completed, the others simply have a strap or two or small bits that want touching up!?) and the Lord of Khorne on the Juggernaut… after which I am on to different issues – in all probability ending up the Stormcast Eternals Vigilant Brotherhood Spearhead!! And perhaps another stuff for different spearheads – like the brand new Nighthaunt one.
Oh, and perhaps the stuff I would like for Warhammer Quest: Cursed Metropolis – Night time Wars, since Amanda is again from England and we have been presupposed to get again to enjoying when she returned.
