Set 4: Half-Elf Sorcerer
By Rob Heinsoo
 |
Model: Half-Elf Sorcerer
Faction: Thalos
Why It Rocks: The Half-Elf Sorcerer enjoys the best long-range damage spells in the game. And unlike the other Thalos Sorcerer, the Half-Elf has good vision underground in gloom.
Tips and Tactics: In a parallel dimension, the Half-Elf Sorcerer twirls a pair of six-guns and shoots the varmints down. Treat the Sorcerer as you would a gunfighter. Give the model long firing alleys and protection from charging foes that want to turn its spell-battle tactics into a knife fight.
The Half-Elf Sorcerer’s long-range area effect damage spell means that, with clever maneuvers, you can hit many more than one enemy model per shot. Even if you don’t get off the killer shots, you can force your enemies into playing more cautiously than they’d like. You’ll steal the victory when they hold back their models instead of risking multiple-damage cold burst attacks.
Enemies Who Hate to See It: Use the Half-Elf Sorcerer against models that are vulnerable to fire, warbands that don’t have enough command to get off an attack against a back-row spellcaster, and slow-moving warbands caught out in the open.
