▲ Armour-Piercing: The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies.

▲ Armoured: Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage.

In this far-flung continent, the Last Defender of Xhotl will establish a new power base to enact the next stage of the Great Plan and hunt out the Sacred Plaques that shall power the Ritual of Prognostication.

Lord Mazdamundi has sent Kroq-Gar across the world pond to the Southlands. There is no continent upon which Kroq-Gar and Grymloq have not fought, but for the last defenders of Xhotl, the battle is not yet over. Over his long existence, Kroq-Gar has fought many wars - leading the armies of Hexoatl, or joining other hosts to aid them in battle. Since that day, Mazdamundi has assigned Kroq-Gar the sacred task of exterminating those creatures not part of the Old Ones’ Great Plan. Mazdamundi gifted Kroq-Gar with the ancient artefact known as the Hand of Gods, with which he could sear the flesh from his enemies’ bones.

Following the Great Catastrophe, it was none other than the great Lord Mazdamundi, High Slann Mage-Priest of Hexoatl, that summoned Kroq-Gar to his temple-city, choosing him to lead the great Saurus armies that remained. Kroq-Gar’s spawning coincided with the rearing of a brood of mighty Carnosaurs, and he claimed the largest and most ferocious as his own. In the instinctive ways of battle-cunning these warriors were unsurpassed by any of their kind, and each possessed an innate dominion over the native beasts of the jungle. The spawning that brought Kroq-Gar into the world produced a handful of other Saurus, each marked for greatness. Kroq-Gar, known as the Last Defender of Xhotl is an ancient Saurus Oldblood, the last of the remaining Saurus warriors from the now ruined temple-city of Xhotl.
