Another faction derived from the old High Elf line, covering all your elf-riding-a-dragon needs. Despite only really having three units it's possible to make an army out of these guys in matched play due to the presence of battleline units.

Warscrolls

The common keywords of these warscrolls are: ORDER, AELF and ORDER DRACONIS.

Leaders

  • Dragonlord:Also counts as BEHEMOTH. If you are feilding order draconis, this fellow is WHY you're doing so. It'd be like a BLT without the bacon. No one wants a lettuce and tomato sandwich. "BACON" gets to toast a unit during the shooting phase every turn. No to hit, or to wound.....just pick a unit and do damage. You can run Bacon with a lance or "dragon blade"(the kits dragon blade is a big axe or sword) in one hand. In the other hand is your choice of sheild, bow or horn. If you can keep bacon on the charge the lance is your best bet. If you expect bacon to get stuck in the axe the has slightly higher damage output. And looks WAY cooler. With a sheild to re-roll failed saves, bacon can get really stuck in. With support from Dragon Nobles and Dragon Blades the war horn and command ability can create a vicious deathstar(once per game). The bow seems silly, when compared to the sheild or horn. Its a great ranged attack stat line though.
  • Dragon Noble: Dragonlord light.... on a horse, so thats extra light. All of the nobels attack stat lines are weaker than the mighty BACON....except the bow. So if you want to run a bow, hes your guy. You can alternatively equip a sheild for re-rolled saves or phoenix banner. The banner is a great choice in you deathstar.

Troops

  • Dragon Blades:Counts as Battleline if your army has the ORDER DRACONIS allegiance. Fairly standard cavalry stats. The drake sheild re-rolls 1s and 1,2s during the shooting phase. Handy, especially with mystic sheild up. Ancient dignity means that you won't have to really worrie about battleshock failure. Of course they will benefit from any of order draconis buffs. Re-rolling failed to hit rolls, an extra attack with each melee weapon and re-roll any dice on the charge.

Battalions

Dragonlord Host

Found in the Grand Alliance: Order book.

A Battalion that basically allows them to move twice in a round, and either attempt a charge if within range or use the lord's dragonfire. (if you can wipe out your first target) [combat phase is separate from charge phase], and you only need a Dragonlord and 10 Dragon Blades to fulfil its requirements.

Army Building

Allied Armies

ELDRITCH COUNCIL Who doesn't want an archmage to cast Elemental shield for them?

WANDERERS The order draconis units love to have the Sisters of the thorn buffing them. If you didn't take an enchanted sheild, sheild of thorns will increase survivability and do a few wounds to the attacker.
