Wyrd Games has another The Other Side preview for us and this one is not only tough but worships the Burning Man. Come check out the Broken!
Wyrd Games has another The Other Side preview and this one focuses on The Broken. The Broken are those who have had significant trauma in their lives and were swayed by the call of the Burning Man. They tend to gather in large groups, ramble to the others of their madness, and gather up any weapons they can find. Their numbers tend to thin out due to chaos and violence, while others progress deeper into the Cult. On the table, the Broken five-man fireteams and can soak up a lot of damage. They can also generate their own Reinforcement Tokens. They can also give out Shaken Tokens to friendly or enemy units with their Cult Allegiance card.
The Broken
Almost every member of the Cult of the Burning Man began their twisted worship as one of the Broken. People who had experienced significant trauma in their lives were particularly receptive to the call of the Burning Man, and their first act is often one of intense violence against their loved ones. The Broken tend to gather in large groups, rambling their madness to one another and gathering up whatever impromptu weapons they can find. Over time, chaos and violence thin out their numbers, some progressing deeper into the Cult while others are killed. Fortunately, there is never any shortage of madmen to replenish their ranks.
On the table, the Broken can absorb a lot of damage. Their five-model Fireteams are very durable, and they have the ability to generate their own Reinforcement Tokens. Their various means of discarding cards also assists them in handing out Shaken Tokens to friendly or enemy units via the Cult’s Allegiance card.
Be sure to head on over to the Wyrd Forums to discuss this new unit!
