Codex’s core set has two factions: the (pink) Blood Anarchs and the (inexperienced) Moss Sentinels. Every has 3 heroes. There are 4 growth factions, every with 3 extra heroes plus a starter set with 2 heroes. That’s 20 heroes in whole throughout all expansions. Every hero has an related “spec” with a enjoyable identify, which means the kind of stuff they concentrate on. We’ll have a look at all 20 specs on this collection of articles and look at how every performs, what the artwork appears to be like like, and what the philosophy is for every.
Earlier than we go on, let’s overview some fundamentals about how the sport works although.
- If you play the mode of the sport used for aggressive play, you choose a staff of three heroes and in the course of the sport you may have entry to all of the playing cards of these 3 specs.
- If you wish to forged a SPELL, you want a HERO. You particularly want the Anarchy hero to forged an Anarchy spell, and many others.
- If you wish to make a UNIT (or an improve or constructing), you want a TECH BUILDING. You begin with tech 0 playing cards you’ll be able to at all times make as a result of your base produces them. You want a TECH I BUILDING to make a tech I unit although. That is a versatile constructing as a result of it could produce models of any spec!
- You need to specialize at tech II although. If you make a tech II constructing, it is of a CERTAIN SPEC ONLY. In case you choose Anarchy, it could solely produce Anarchy tech II stuff. Additionally, it means your tech III constructing have to be Anarchy tech III when you construct that.
What I need you to remember as you examine all the precise specs although, is that you do not have to make use of ALL of a spec without delay. You may need an Anarchy hero (who can forged Anarchy spells), however you are still free to make a Hearth tech II constructing in order for you. Consider it as your construct order having 9 branches at the beginning of the sport: you depend on 1 of your 3 heroes and 1 of your 3 specs when you make your tech II constructing, and so they do not should match.
These articles will largely speak about utilizing each elements of the spec collectively (the hero+spells half and the everything-else half), however that is simply so that you get the theme of the spec. You are free to combine it up!
