BACKGROUND
Fearless, charismatic, daring: these are but a few of the epithets bestowed upon
Markus Wulfhart, the Huntsmarshal of Emperor Karl Franz. With his band of
ruthless trackers, scouts, hunters and sharpshooters, who better to dispatch to
the steaming jungles of Lustria, in order to plant the flag and further Imperial
interests? And if some Big Game should wander into the crosshairs, why, all the
better…
But the jungle does not sleep. Nakai The Wanderer, revered Kroxigor of the
first-spawning, is a living legend among the Lizardmen. Wandering the jungles of
Lustria since the destruction of his home-city of Tlanxla during the Great
Catastrophe, he follows where the Great Plan wills him.
Now Lustria is at threat from usurpers once more. Nakai will rally the Sacred
Kroxigors, and rouse the Dread Saurians from their ageless slumber – the Old
Ones demand it!
MARKUS WULFHART (THE HUNTSMARSHAL’S EXPEDITION)
UNIQUE FACTION MECHANICS:
Emperor’s Mandate
As Markus Wulfhart expands Imperial interests in Lustria, his stature in the
eyes of the Emperor grows. As a result, he receives a broadening range of
increasingly advanced Empire units to aid in his expedition. As new territory is
captured, his building options also diversify. In the Eye of the Vortex
campaign, Markus will ultimately face the Spirit of the Jungle himself, Nakai
the Wanderer, to decide who holds dominion over the jungles of Lustria.
Wulfhart’s campaign progress is measured by how effectively he fulfils the
Emperor’s Mandate. Expansion, successful military operations and other campaign
activities increase his acclaim, which is tracked on the Emperor’s Mandate bar.
The Emperor’s Mandate also dictates the quality of units available to Wulfhart
via the Imperial Supplies system, which dispatches better units for him to
recruit from time to time. As the Mandate bar fills, he will also unlock bonuses
to further improve these units, plus new recruitment buildings.
In the Eye of the Vortex campaign, filling the Emperor’s Mandate bar will cause
Nakai the Wanderer to issue a final, do-or-die challenge to Markus Wulfhart – a
call to battle that will become the stuff of legend!
Hostility
The lands beyond the Empire are inimical to man, and Wulfhart’s actions will not
go unnoticed. While defeating the local inhabitants improves Wulfhart’s Imperial
standing and increases his supply of fresh troops, it also enrages Lustria’s
native denizens…
Wulfhart’s Hostility rating reflects the current level of Lustria’s retaliation
against his military activities. Aggressive activities, such as military actions
and raiding, can raise Hostility through five levels. Conversely, a more passive
approach to the campaign will cause Hostility to fall.
Each Hostility level has a negative effect on Wulfhart’s campaign, but is also a
measure of his aggression against the Lizardmen. As he ascends through the
Hostility levels, reinforcements are dispatched more frequently via the Imperial
Supplies system. The strength of these reinforcements is still dictated by the
Emperor’s Mandate bar.
When peak Hostility is reached, a Lizardmen task-force is dispatched with the
aim of defeating Wulfhart. He will instantly receive an Imperial Supplies drop
and will need to survive sustained assault for a number of turns before the
hostility bar resets.
Wulfhart’s Hunters
Scattered throughout Lustria are four of the finest Hunters that ever lived.
Wulfhart may attempt to track them down and acquire their services to aid in the
expedition’s success, and subsequently developing each Hunter’s unique
attributes and learning the tales of their past deeds.
Wulfhart can search for the four Hunters in the Jungles of Lustria by completing
special missions. The Hunters each have bespoke stories which are uncovered
through unique missions. Completing these missions will reward them with new
traits and powerful abilities.
The Hunters are not required to complete Wulfhart's narrative Vortex campaign,
but bring major b
