Three Monstrous Expansions Join The Lotus Swarm of Runewars
July 19, 2017 by dracs
The swarm of the Uthuk Y'llan grows as three Ynfernael expansions swell their ranks in RuneWars. First, we have the Flesh Rippers.
The Flesh Rippers act as hunting hounds, shock troops, and scouts for the Uthuk, making them a versatile and dangerous foe.
Following them come the Berserkers.
The Berserkers do exactly what it say on the tin. They form the back bone of the Uthuk forces and have been shaped into fierce fighters by the rigours of their home.
Finally, we have the Spined Threshers.
The Spined Threshers are heavy hitters, capable of tanking a knight's charge and tearing down defensive walls. The only problem is the cost of sacrifices to summon them, but that's not such a problem when you're at war.
Which of the Uthuk's new releases will you add to your force?
"[Sacrifices are] not such a problem when you're at war..."

Very nice. Seems like FFG is on roll with RuneWars.
Anybody playing these? I haven’t seen a lot of reviews that are more than just unboxings… looking for reviews of gameplay and whether it’s a good game to get into or if the game play ends up being a little flat or too restrictive with the templates and initiative orders. The few reviews I have seen that do like the game seem to say it is probably a good introductory game for new gamers but haven’t talked about building up larger forces or repeated play experiences (with changing out gear and abilities, etc).
oh, by ‘playing these’ I mean RuneWars… not just this faction as I know it’s not out yet!!! lol
Same ditto. I’m seeing “wait and see” posts on BGG and Dakka, but we don’t know if RuneWars will go the way of BattleLore. FFG is putting out product for a fair number of “lifestyle” games, including its LCG, and I’m not sure if RW will be supported if FFG decides to cut back on some of its game lines.
