Creato il 11 maggio 2013 da Marco Giorgio @MarcoGiorgioGM
Quanto tempo è passato dall'ultimo post? Quasi sei anni! Ritornano gli Alti Elfi per l'Ottava Edizione di Warhammer Fantasy: pronti a spiccare il volo! Perchè se nella scorsa edizione i draghi erano i padroni, adesso è arrivato il tempo delle fenici!
Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza! Il Codex sarà di ben 96 pagine, inoltre sarà anche possibile comprarlo come eBook del sito della GW. Logicamente il prezzo è sempre lo steso... tanto vale comprarlo cartaceo! In ogni caso: trovare delle rumors decenti ormai è diventata un impresa. Ve le posto direttamente in inglese, buona lettura:

Da quello che abbiamo visto, finalmente gli elfi tornano giocabili! Ed era ora: che è un peccato vedere un popolo così morire tra gli scaffali dei professionisti. Adesso passiamo alla parte più succosa... i nuovi modelli. Sempre più magnifici!

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

Purtroppo i Draghi sono sempre stati preferiti ai Grifoni: anche se più costoso, sono sempre stati decisamente più devastanti. Ma adesso si parla di Fenici! I mitici uccelli sono cavalcati dai più grandi condottieri elfi: possono essere sia truppe eroe che rare. Il modello che vedete si chiama Fenice Pirardente: la classica fenice di fuoco.

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

Abbiamo anche la Fenice Cuorglaciale: dagli effetti magici più congelanti!

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

L'Eletto di Asuryan è il modello che cavalca la fenice. Può anche essere appiedato.

Dopo il portentoso Carro di Chrace trainato da dai bianchi leoni, c'è un nuovo carro per gli Alti Elfi. Il Solcacieli di Lothern è un carro volante trainato da una Grande Aquila! E' perfino munita di balista pronta a colpire!

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

Può essere trainata da un eroe elfico.

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

L'eroe può essere assemblato è un 'Elmo del Mare di Lothern con un mantello fluente con armatura scintillante.

Tornano i Guerrieri Ombra: più cattivi e oscuri che mai! Finalmente in plastica,  gli ex-elfi oscuri adesso fanno veramente paura!

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

Qua scende la lacrima: un graditissimo ritorno! Ecco a voi le Sorelle dell'Avelorn: le ancelle guerriere della Regina Eterna! Non si vedevano dalla quinta edizione... felicità assoluta! Poi non dite che gli Alti Elfi sono maschilisti...

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

Alarielle la Radiosa (come dice il sito GW) è l'undicesima Regina Eterna dai tempi di Aenarion. Il personaggio speciale possiede il Bastone dell'Avelorn e il diadema Stella dell'Avelorn. Una degna regina pronta a combattere!

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

Le Ancelle della Regina Eterna sono dei modelli potenziati delle Sorelle dell'Avelorn (come un campione dell'unità). Sono molto utili per potenziare le guerriere.

Il Nuovo Codex degli Alti Elfi! Inchinatevi a Tanta Bellezza!

Come vuole la tradizione, la Torre di Hoeth mischia l'arte marziale al sapere magico. Il Custode del Sapere di Hoeth è uno stregone guerriero degno di nota. Finalmente qualcosa da BG!

Finalmente mi viene voglia di parlare della GW! Forse perchè sono molto legato agli Alti Elfi... ma per una volta l'hanno fatto giusta! Direi che non c'è altro da dire: ancora complimenti! Per il resto... di solito lascio sempre con qualche anticipazione per il futuro: questa volta non ci sono ancora punti di riferimento. Si parla di nani, elfi oscuri, elfi silvani, uomini lucertolabretoniani! Insomma: di tutto e di più... staremo a vedere!
