Lucid Eye Preview Troll Wars Expansion For The Elf King

November 19, 2018 by brennon

Lucid Eye is preparing to take you deeper into the world of The Red Book Of The Elf King with a new expansion supplement, Troll Wars.

The cover art for this particular expansion was done by the wonderful Jim FitzPatrick and features the Elves clashing with their enemies on the battlefield. As well as dealing with the Troll faction you will also find rules for the Mortals and of course, more Elf Circles too including the one commanded by Sunnvane & Lismhale from the Tower of Glâs.

"Sunnvane and Lismhale are the Two that are One - twin spirits and each an aspect of the whole. They are conjoined Thanes of the Circle of Glâs, Sunnvane the Captain of the Fae Fleet, and Lismhale his sister-spirit.

Each personality can rise to the surface to exert itself, half the time it is Sunnvane whose spirit is dominant, and half the time it is Lismhale. Sunnvane is a mighty warrior Thane but lacking in Glamour lore, Lismhale is the opposite - a powerful wielder of Glamours but a weak fighter.

Together they make a whole that is both one of the most powerful fighters and one of the most potent spell-weavers in the Isles of Eas. They live eternally in spirit with the Tower of Glas together with their Elven Companions."

I love this idea for a miniature and it allows them not only to do something fantastic with the lore but also play around with an interesting sculpt as you've seen here.

I've said it once and I will say it again. The folks at Lucid Eye do some stunning work when it comes to their world and miniatures. They also have the help of Rick Priestley working on the rules once more which is sure to continue making for an amazing game.
