Patch Notes - Alpha 1 Hotfix 1


1. Combined Strength - a couple of rewords and clarifications:
-Merging now happens after the declaration of any Special Deployment and units that declared any can't be merged (Carnosaur + ambushing Raptor Packs).
-If removed completely, Guest Models no longer can be Raised.
-As long as they're alive, the Host and Guest models share all "game effects" between them (e.g. KoE - The Quest, DH - Ancient Grudge).
2. Communal Bond - Fleeing units no longer apply nor benefit from their own Commanding Presence.
3. Venomous Fortress - Rewording.
4. Glory of the Dawn Age - AP10 and ignoring Fortitude effects are now tied to Lethal Strike, meaning they can be ignored by items such as Eternity Gem or Tuktek's Guard.
5. Stampede Resonator Crystal - Now must be activated at the start of the Charge Phase, instead of Melee Phase.
6. Anunarch Archmage, Closely Guarded - Rewording.
7. Anunarch Archmage, Forbidden Mastery - Clarification, hits are applied after resolving both spell and attribute effects.
8. Anunarch Archmage, Abjuration Mastery - Rewording.
9. Anunarch Archmage, Telepathic Mastery - Clarification, discipline copies both spell and relevant attribute (for example, Exalted Herald in WDG).

11. Mountain Pteradon/Pteradon Riders, Aerial Assault - Clarification, number of hits is tied to the number of models performing Sweeping Attack.
