FFG Announces a New Enemy For Runewars

Uthuk Yllari

Fantasy Flight Games will be releasing a new faction that will swarm across Terrinoth and bring all their enemies to their knees!

The Uthuk Y’llan consumed everything in their path until their defeat at the end of the First Darkness. Now, they have returned and their demonic warbands bands bring chaos and destruction. The Uthuk Y’llan Army Expansion brings three units and a hero to the table. Units include Berserkers, Flesh Rippers, and Spined Threshers. The hero unit is the brutal Ravos the Everhungry. The expansion comes with 22 models, tokens, terrain pieces, 12 upgrade cards, and more.

The Uthuk Bersekers run frenzied at their enemies after being whipped up by Blood Coven witches. They have a Steadfast nature, so they are resistant to fear effects. They can choose to suffer a wound to gain Lethal 1 for the duration of their attack. Their frenzy does not last forever and this ability can only be used twice in combat.

Uthuk Berserkers

The Flesh Rippers make up the cavalry of the Uthuk Y’llari and are terrifying. They can function as hounds, scouts, or saboteurs. Chieftains and sorcerers can use them as mounts but are nearly impossible to restrain. Before their command tool is revealed, the player must perform a movement speed -1 maneuver. Surges are their greatest asset. After rolling a red die and two blue die, they have the ability to inflict damage equal to each surge icon revealed. They can spawn quickly and a player can have up to nine trays of these beasts on the field at any time.

Flesh rippers

Spined Threshers are monstrous beasts that can rend flesh, armor, and even fortified stone. Once activated, each enemy player who does not have a panic token within Range 1 to the number of unstable runes on the field will receive a panic token. The panic token allows the Thresher to reroll a die to aid its attack. With five wounds and two stolid defense, the Thresher is highly resilient. They are a pain to summon however, with a cost of 18.

Spined Thresher

Ravos the Everhungry is an imposing hero that has Brutal 1, Precise 1, and Steadfast (Fear 2). He is armed with a cured blade and can spend a surge icon to inflict a wound on every enemy within Range 1. Before the End Phase, Ravos must inflict a wound on a unit within Range 1 and this does not distinguish friend from foe. Ravos’ Ynfernael Presence ability inflicts one panic token on every single enemy after setup. His command tool has two melee icons that allow him to attack early or late within a round. He can engage directly or inflict fear token from afar and have the Spined Threshers do the dirty work.
