Content pack: Boris Todbringer – Lords of the End Times. Immortal Empires ownership
- Included in Boris Todbringer – Lords of the End Times, purchased individually or through the Lords of the End Times bundle. Emil is a Legendary Hero supporting an existing army, rather than a separate Legendary Lord campaign.
The High Priest of Ulric
Ar-Ulric is Emil’s religious title. He formerly led the Knights of the White Wolf and is a longstanding ally of Boris Todbringer. In Immortal Empires, his Empire hero role complements Middenland’s Ulrican army.
Boris’s Temple of Ulric is a faction campaign feature. Emil’s contribution comes from his character abilities and skills in the army. Keep those two sources of support in mind when planning a force around Ulrican troops.
Fight alongside the troops he supports
Emil’s skills support units such as Teutogen Guard and Knights of the White Wolf. Battle Howl strengthens nearby charging troops, so bring him into position before committing the units meant to benefit.
He also fights with the Hammer-Axe of Skoll. Keep infantry around him and commit mobile troops where they can reach a useful target. Support abilities are easier to exploit when the army attacks together.
Supporting a broader Empire force
Swordsmen can guard a flank or help protect artillery while the Ulrican troops advance. A Helstorm Rocket Battery attacks distant infantry, but its fire needs care once Emil and the melee line are among the enemy. Boris supplies the campaign leadership and a second melee threat.
