Itza in Immortal Empires
Gor-Rok leads Itza in Immortal Empires. The faction shares its name with the temple city it protects, and pairs a Saurus champion with Lord Kroak. It offers a campaign identity built around holding the line while powerful magic works behind it.
Develop the Lizardmen provinces alongside the field army. The Geomantic Web rewards connected capitals, and Blessed Spawnings provide another way to shape the roster. Protect the route between an advancing army and the provinces supplying replacements.
Gor-Rok and Lord Kroak
Lord Kroak is a Legendary Hero, rather than another selectable faction leader. Gor-Rok supplies the close-combat presence while Kroak supplies spellcasting. Keep enemies away from Kroak and place the infantry where it can hold opponents in a useful area.
Gor-Rok can hold a demanding position, but that gives the rest of the army a job to finish. Use the time he buys to support the threatened flank, bring missiles into position or finish an enemy unit before it escapes.
A centre that supports the wings
Saurus Warriors suit a formation with Gor-Rok near its centre. Skink Skirmishers can work outside that line, drawing back behind the Saurus when enemy troops approach.
Avoid allowing a strong centre to become an isolated centre. Watch both ends of the formation and retain troops that can turn towards a flanking attack. Kroak also needs a protected position as the line moves.
The centre of Itza
Gor-Rok is free Lizardmen content. Steam's page calls him the Great White Lizard, a veteran Saurus who fights beside Lord Kroak at the centre of Itza's line, and the free lord shipped with The Hunter and the Beast on 11 September 2019. Qualifying ownership is Warhammer II or one of the Lizardmen lord packs. He leads Itza. The 28 June 2022 prologue lists Itza for him.
He is the defensive Saurus. Saurus Warriors suit a line with him near the centre, and Skink Skirmishers work outside it. Lord Kroak is the Legendary Hero who accompanies Itza, not a second faction leader. The 4 April 2019 FAQ says every Lizardmen legendary lord can quest for Kroak, and it describes Kroak as the last of the first-generation Slann, whose spirit can still join an army. Gor-Rok's campaign is the one that keeps that hero with the temple-city.
