Brief description of the plot
Basically once upon a time in the future of Valhalla, a bad angel called Utgar wanted to use some springs to kill everything. Jandar, another angel gathers a big group of buddies to rape him. They go about this by summoning "mighty" warriors to punch each other
Factions
Jandar
Lawful good (although oddly likes Vikings). A mary sue and Your main source of cheese. Uses:
•Vikings, mostly stabby guys who get two guys that buff them in the starter box
•WW2 soldiers, whose sergeant is somehow so fast he can't be shot
•Buffy Valkyries
Utgar
Neutral evil. Uses almost everything, especially:
•Marro, weird sludgy things that can regrow and Zerg rush. Have an expansion dedicated to them
•Dragons, flying big things. Normally crap.
•Orks. Sadly no WAAAAAAAAGHing and kinda meh. Are also good at zerging and allow for movement of heros and squads simultaneously
•Almost anything that could be considered evil that isn't Valkrill. Including the heroscape equivalent of a 10 point independent character
Vydar
Probably true neutral. A mercenary and a dick. Likes backstabbing everyone except for some reason considered good Uses mostly spies and stealth units
Ullar
Chaotic Good. A bit like Radagast from lord of the rings. Likes elves, wild things. Uses elves and The most op dragon EVAR
Einar
Punchy. Uses dickish samurai, zerging Romans and some kind of hunting god. Faps over swords
=Valkrill
Chaotic neutral (or maybe evil). Only has 4 units
