Otylia Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Can someone fill a noob in on the Emissaries - Since there's an "Emissary of Fate" characteristic - does that mean there's a master that can take and/or synergize with multiple emissaries? It was hard enough resisting the TT when they had 1 dragon... I just don't think I can do it if they have two dragons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinn Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Every faction gets their own Emissary of Fate: Arcanists - Arcane Emissary Guild - Brutal Emissary Gremlins - Lucky Emissary Neverborn - Mysterious Emissary Outcasts - Hodgepodge Emissary Resurrectionist - Carrion Emissary Ten Thunders - Shadow Emissary Every Emissary has a set of 0 SS upgrades - one generic and one specific for every master of its faction. For example, Conflux of Fate (Emissary of Fate, Neverborn/Gremlins) can be attached only if Zoraida is the Leader of the group. Emissary's Attack Actions that damage model now apply Condition, which allows Zoraida to target such model with Obey without being in range or having LoS and gives it to Attack Flip. It also gives Emissary (0) Tactical Action that allows you to manipulate your Fate Deck. Old models of Avatars do count as tournament legal proxy models for Emissaries. This means, that if you own Avatar of Fate (Zoraida) model, for example, you can use it either as Mysterious Emissary in any game or as Zoraida's Avatar itself for the purpouse of the campaign. Fluff-wise, Emissaries are "grown up" Effigies. Look at Lucky Emissary - it is Lucky Effigy riding... eee... The Pig Wheel of Doom. Effigies were made by Zoraida as weapons against their corresponding factions (Neverborn included), but after The Event they wandered off, drawn to those factions, because of the similarities they shared. Model-wise, Emissaries are going to be impressive 50 mm models intended to be center pieces of your crew. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adran Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 The reason they have Emmisary of Fate characteristic is because the Duel faction masters have 1 Emmisary upgrade that will go on which ever Emmisary is in their faction. So McMornings upgrade will go on the Brutal Emmisary if he is in guild, and the Carrion Emmisary if he is in Resurectionists. Having a constant cajharacteristic helps for that upgrade control.
