Get ready. It's time to forge the narrative.

Hey everybody, welcome to Forge Narrative. I got me and Justin Troupe tonight.

Woo!

I mean, seriously, Justin, thanks for joining me. We're actually recording on a Friday night, so it's like 10.30 Eastern time Friday night. Oh, tell people, Paul. It is, it is party time, man. I have no friends. But we, we, we, there's a lot going on in the 40K world. Obviously, you know, we released the Necron Part 1, and today we're going to be talking about the Drucari. It reminds me of what was the seventh when it was just like, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. We're getting codexes and we're getting that right now again. I love it. We're in that, you know, that couple of week gap here, and there's going to be more stuff coming. Obviously, there's a desire on the Gaines Workshop side to get all the codexes out in a reasonable amount of time. So everyone gets to benefit from things like the stratagems and the various faction traits and stuff. So, I mean, I welcome it. Keep it coming. Oh, yeah, for sure. And it's only getting better. We're trying to catch up after taking so much time away to do the, you know, the other side of the stuff. We talk about the tournament playing. All right, man. Let's get into it. Yeah, man. Let me talk about this is the power from pain. That's something that is common to a lot of the Dark Eldar and this is something

units with this ability gain a bonus depending on which battle round it is as shown in

the table below note that all bonuses are cumulative and and that's something that's neat that

we've seen this in the Dark Eldar before it's for the Dukar before we actually seen this

kind of play out on all the evil elf side of things.

Oh, yeah.

You know, especially, we even saw what we were talking about, the Daughters of Cain from the

Age of Sigma side, how that they actually get some bonuses that are cumulative per round

because they're devotion to these sinister arts.

Yeah, it's an interesting mechanic, too, because it does make the army play a little bit

unique because if you're building a strategy to one certain aspect, you have to wait for

that round to come up to get that bonus or that benefit.

It really makes this army a little bit more unique as to how it plays because it's all

about timing now.

Well, I do like, like, we'll jump to the number five, the, the highest thing on this chart is that the mantle of agony subtract one from the leadership characteristic of enemy units that are within six inches of any enemy units with this bonus in the morale phase.

This means that, you know, if in the late game that,

that units are taking extra casualty when they fail that morale.

And that's kind of what you want in late game because your opponent is going to be picking up

models faster.
