I didn't think we needed to wait for the next Friday thread to contemplate what would work well with the devious Baron.

I'll add my thoughts some time tomorrow. I spent most of my spare time today hanging drywall, and need to sleep.

Devious Baron? You will answer for such slander against our Lord. Long has he warned you of the threat from the Mists, and longer still have you ignored it. And now that his warning comes true and all his preparations stand vindicated in this desperate hour, you would quibble with his means?

In other words, I think my army will be from Carthridge now instead of just a mercenary band extolling the virtues of the Baron of Tamar from the first Darkness.

Aye, but heed these words; trust not fully one who lingers near the powers of life and death, for what seems good and true, might turn out selfrighteous and corrupt! In the shadow, even the most virtous' thoughts gets entangled and suspicious. And the council of Zorgas has many members, of whom only few are known...

Ah, that wonderful thing called sleep...

OK, my thoughts. Presuming his command dial has the appropriate commands:

Chaos Runesteed Unique

When you perform a [march]-1, if [unstable] is 2 or higher, you may increase the distance of the [march] to 2. When you perform a [march]-2, you may increase the distance to [unstable].

Frenzy Rune Artifact Not faction specific

Each unit at range 0-[unstable] may spend 1 vitality token to add [red] [blue] to any attack they perform.

Well, he's got duality as a theme. Nerekhal training makes his ranged attack more powerful at the expense of his melee, so it stands to reason his other unique will do the opposite. I imagine some impact will play into it, what with that huge runesteed. Alternately, in Descent Zachareth can force enemies to move, so we could see that (though talk about overlap with vorun'thul!)

For a Daqan artifact, I dunno! Maybe something that interacts with condition cards? Seems like we're only going to see more of those as time goes on. Something purely defensive would be nice, but probably a nightmare to balance. Something that moved a friendly unit would sure be cool.

Symbol of Unity

Artifact, 7 points

Special action: choose a friendly unit at range 1-3. That unit immediately performs a speed 1 shift or reform.
