Contender (Pre-Order December 2026)

The Contender is an Orc leader focused on offensive support and objective control. He operates from the second line to weaken the opponent's key threats at range and secure vital zones on the battlefield. 

• Defiant Leader: Once per-round, weakens an enemy unit within 18 paces and forces a WIL test (requiring 2 (Success)). On a failure, you can move it 5 paces toward you or push it away, disrupting its formation and leaving it open to a charge. 

• Orc Warlord: Grants +1 to the conquest value of any friendly unit within 12 paces contesting an objective, provided it inflicted at least one Wound during its activation. 

• In combat: Durable, trades blows reliably, and features the Berserk rule. He joins Orc infantry seamlessly. 

• On the table: For 25 points, he provides resilience, positional control over enemy units, and direct scoring support in control missions.
