mk1 Keg Carrier was next turn you could run and then make melee attacks after running and all attack and damage rolls were boosted for the turn, for every trollblood model.

Question about the trolls – No iron fleshed Nyss instead kriel warriors without cabers? I get the synergies between Borka and Pygs and the Fenns but I’m not seeing what the Kriel Warriors have over the Nyss even taking into account Saxon Orik or the Chronicler.

[Mr. BeraterMember]

Just habit really. I only purchased the Nyss a month ago and am not in the habit of taking minions/mercs with trolls. The Kriels are cheaper and provide a unit that cant be knocked down by denny’s scourge they also get buffed by fell caller and feat, I liked them batting cleanup when my fenns inevitably got crippling grasped.

But in all honesty, you are correct, I probably should have had Nyss instead of Kriels. I have never taken them with Borka, but now that you have pointed them out I can see the obvious synergy.
