The Ferach Empire

The Elves are the driving force behind the wars being fought in Valon. TheElven Empire was once a glorious institution, a visible testimony to theformidable power of the Elves. However, time and the enemies of the Elveseroded this vast Empire, and it dwindled into a triviality. One man’s ambitionfired a nation’s latent patriotism in a bid to halt this decay, and this man wasMordred, the son of the Elven Empress Morgana. He believed that his mother was allowing the honour of the Empire to wither and die, and vowed to stop thisdecline.

Promises of glory and riches rewarded him with the support of a substantialnumber of Morgana’s soldiers, and these troops he named the Ferach. It was they who were to aid him in his fight to realise his dream of an Elven empire. It waswith these troops he led a revolt against his mother, usurping from her thethrone of Armorica and declaring himself Emperor. After the annulment of

Wylde Magicke and the victories his forces achieved, many nations flocked to

his banner.

Now Mordred commands many Armées composed not only of Elves but of Toads,Bog Orcs, Dwarves, Dogs, Centaurs, Werewolves, Trollkin, Ogres and huge Trolka amongst others. The Elves are foremost in might on the face of Valon.

O THER ALLIES

In addition to the large number of soldiers provided by the Confederation,Mordred draws on both the rebel Bog Orcs of Guinalea and the Toads of Nepolise.

The Bog Orcs fight for the Elves in order to strike against the Orcs of Albion,who have a strong military presence in their homeland, while the timid Toadsfight on the orders of their King, who desires glory for his subjects. Other racesfight for the Ferach Elves but these are vassal states and fawning client statesand kingdoms.

The Ferach Elf Armee

Mordred’s Ferach Armée is made up of a diverse mixture of different troop typesand races. His own soldiers, the Elves of Armorica, are his ,and take the pride of place in the force with which he intends to rule Valon.

Well-disciplined and drilled to perfection, the Elves are the masters of military manoeuvre, combining their lethal columns with the devastating firepower ofsome of the best Artillery in all Valon. This force has taken Valon by storm, and had not the rest of the world combined to fight against it, there is a lurking pos-sibility that the Elves would have conquered them all by now...

The Armèe of the Ferach Elves of Armorica is a very successful and very diverseorganisation containing many millions of Elven soldiers. Those troops who arecommon on the battlefields of Valon are featured here. There are separate

listings for the Elven soldiers of the Ferach Revolution and for the rarer and more specialised formations, these can be found elsewhere.

ALLIES OF THE F ERACH ELVES

THE CONFEDERATION OF F INKLESTEIN

The greatest contribution to Mordred’s war effort comes from the inhabitants of theConfederation of Finklestein. Made up of smallindependent member States, the Confederationsupplies the Armée with Dwarves, Dogs and Ogres. The Dwarves supply the greatest number

of troops from states such as Beervaria, and have contributed thousands of lives toMordred’s war effort. The Ogres, most ofwhom come from Hünvaria, are some of themost frightening troops employed by Mordred,while the Dogs from the States on the Östarian

border and those such as the Kingdom ofSaxhünde are equally capable troops, though notquite so intimidating. The Confederation has

provided troops for all of Mordred’s major campaigns, being largely responsible for thefight against the Krautian Dwarves.

Thousands of Finklesteiners were drafted intothe Grande Armée du Norde for the

Witchlands campaign, where they conducted

themselves with great valour. Without thesoldiers and resources of the Confederation ofFinklestein, it would be difficult for Mordred

When outfitting your soldiers remember that when paying the points for their weapons you must take note ofwhere they come from.
