Prepare for a monstrous awakening! Trugg, the Troggoth King, has risen from his slumber with a pounding headache of magical proportions. This colossal creature is now on a rampage, driven by agony but determined to smash his way through the pain. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the thrilling details of Trugg’s reign and what awaits in the forthcoming Dawnbringers book.
Reign of the Brute: The Dawnbringers Saga Continues
The Dawnbringers: Book II – Reign of the Brute unveils the chaos that ensues when Trugg and his ever-expanding Troggherd set their sights on Aqshy. This relentless force of regenerating flesh barrels through everything in its path. Additionally, the book introduces rules for special Armies of Renown that tie into the Dawnbringers narrative.
Trugg is undoubtedly the highlight of this new era. A monstrous figure with antlers sprouting from his head after centuries of slumber in Ghyran, he’s now imbued with life, boasting an impressive 16 wounds and adding an extra 3 wounds to his Regeneration. This makes him a formidable force on the battlefield.
Trugg’s Unique Abilities: The Malfunctioning Leystone
Trugg carries an altar fused to his back, which has had its share of issues due to Trugg’s relentless attempts to dislodge it. This Malfunctioning Leystone reacts unpredictably when struck by Trugg. Depending on the situation, it can either harm him or enhance his capabilities, such as improving the rend of his weapons or providing a steely ward save.
Trugg’s Troggherd: A New Way to Play
Trugg’s Troggherd introduces a fresh way to experience the game, focusing on a specific archetype within an existing battletome. In this case, it revolves around units with the GLOOMSPITE GITZ and TROGGOTH keywords, with every non-hero unit gaining the Battleline role.
The Influence of The Bad Moon’s Orbit
The Troggoths remain influenced by The Bad Moon’s Orbit, granting them the Moonlit Hide trait as it crosses the battlefield. But the most significant change is Trugg’s Malfunctioning Leystone, which emits an Aura of Haywire Magic, applying random effects to every unit.
Trugg’s Troggherd boasts an array of unique command traits and artifacts, including the ability to affect Unique units. For instance, the Ceaseless Growth trait enhances Regeneration and Greater Regeneration, making Trugg incredibly resilient.
Trinkets of Power
The Troggoths carry various trinkets, like the Thwackwheezer Club, which explodes on impact into spore clouds that hinder opponents. This results in a subtraction of 1 from hit rolls and wound rolls for affected foes.
More Armies of Renown Await
Trugg’s Troggherd is just one of four Armies of Renown in Reign of the Brute. Stay tuned for King Brodd’s Stomp, the Grundstok Expeditionary Force, and even the Ironjawz. The world of Warhammer is about to get even more exciting.
