Da Bomber: Your Tactical Guide to one of the Best Ranged Models in the Game
by
In a faction the specializes in blunt force trauma, Da Bomber does it from range, with a wicked gleam in his eye. He is one of, if not the best, ranged heavies in the game. His range is a bit low, but two shots, the ability to boost, and AOE4, POW16 attacks is sure to put the fear of trolls into your opponent. If that isn't enough, he can also get in there and mix it up in melee a bit. Only really puzzling thing about this guy is where he gets the next set of explosive barrels, he's not really wearing a bandoleer here....The model it self is one of the stand outs in a standout range, just oozing character.Battlefield RoleThe role of the Bomber is to get out there and bomb! He's an excellent answer to a number of questions.

Slag Troll Tactica:
Your Guide to Spitting Acid For Fun and Profit
by
Slag Troll is one of our more versatile light warbeasts, with the ability to buff, spit acid, and do some melee. One of our "elemental" light warbeasts, along with the Pyre Troll (fire), Storm Troll (electricity), Swamp Troll (water), his niche is Acid. With his habit of eating metal, he's a real kick in the teeth to factions that like to field a lot of jacks. The model itself is totally badassed, with bits of metal poking through his skin, making oozing wounds that would make a pain giver cringe.
Battlefield Role
As a light warbeast, the Slag provides decent ranged support, a nice buff animus, fury generation, transfers, and some limited combat capabilities. He can be used to weaken models before they're hit with a melee charge. Against anything with construct, he's very nasty in the ranged roll, with the potential to finish things off in melee.
Impaler Troll Tactica:
Your Guide to Chucking Spears!
by
Pitching enormous spears with bone-crushing force, impalers are the living ballistae of the trolls.

These savage implements obliterate men and knock even the greatest beasts off their feet.
Battlefield Role
The Impaler is one of our more popular lights, which it's low points cost, decent light abilities, and support for our ranged game. This is in addition to it's abilities as a light warbeast to provide fury, transfers, and beat stuff up.

Janissa Stonetide: Or Rockwall on a Stick!
by
Janissa is probably one of our most useful solos, practically an auto include in a number of troll lists by virtue of her Wall of Stone ability. However, she's a lot more versatile than just a wall on a stick.Battlefield RoleShe's primarily a support solo with some interesting combat applications.
Stone Scribe Chronicler:
Epic Stories... of DEATH!
by
Okay, so he can't really kill stuff by telling stories, unlike the guy at your local watering hole, who can put people into coma's of boredom, but he can inspire his fell Trolls to great heights by recounting epic stories of their history.
