Is anyone else a little irked that the bloodwrack medua/bloodwrack shrine were not included in the core roster of the dark elves or given to us at all? They are very much tied to Morathi, one of the starting LL's for the dark elves. It seems very appropriate that she should have access to them. I understand it isn't the easiest thing to animate but I think it would have been appropriate. Or at least they could have given us the scourgerunner chariot....

1 · Disagree AgreeNaw there is no way we are going to get it. Lord pack was the only opportunity. They would never ever give us a medusa as FLC. Never. But as CA likes to say to their players, "never say never." Lol

2 · Disagree AgreeLong ago (Q&C time) Grace replied about the addition of Medusae, saying they'll take into consideration the fact that she is a simple Sepulchral Stalker reskin.

0 · Disagree AgreeSecond, those FLCs are not really FLC other than players don't have to pay for them. Most of the FLCs come paired along side some other paid DLC. So if they have the time and spare resources to do it, simply bundles it into and gets released as a little public relations dlc.
About the only time we see flc that wasn't done that way is when they pair it to a special event and it's strictly advertisement dollars but even then sometimes that was still done with a DLC's direct budget. Bone Giant was most likely held back, paid and developed during TK dlc costs and put for that advertisement.

0 · Disagree AgreeIt would have been nice but I'm not overly attached to it.
To my knowledge (as I started playing the TT in 6th edition) they were added in 8th edition along with Dreadfire Warlocks, Sisters of Slaughter, Scourgerunner Chariots, the Kharibdyss and I think maybe something else. Of those options I think they put the best units in first. I never used the Scourgerunner or Madusa in TT as there always seemed to be something better.
That's not to say I don't want them to consider adding them in later... because that'd be great. Just that I can enjoy the game just fine in their absence.

We still have beastmaster and black ark fleetmaster for darkelves to be added
Would be nice with sea theme with krakenlord

1 · Disagree AgreeBut once more there are incoming armies that should shoulder that burden and make it a reskin. Which is vastly cheaper.

1 · Disagree AgreeThe sad truth is that the only reason why they even care about our feedback about the Q and the C is because we spoke up. They knew exactly what they were doing when they gave us no new models and only 5 units and left out the white lion chariot. They were simply hoping they could get away with it and sales wise they sort of did.

1 · Disagree AgreeAs the OP said, the Bloodwrack Medusae would not have been given away free if it was made, it would have been used as a centrepiece for a DLC.

0 · Disagree AgreeWould the Medusa serve as Monstrous infantry that serve as shock troops or are they meant to be supportive of other infantry ? There are apparently spear and archer based variants. What were stats on table top so that she can determine their niche?

1 · Disagree AgreeThe Bloodwrack Shrine would basically be a chariot with the medusa's ranged attack, Terror, and an aura that boosts friendly Leadership.
The Melusae that Grom posted, while awesome models, are Age of Sigmar models. The Bloodwrack Medusa from 8E only had a spear. (Technically, it was undefined according to game rules. But it's a spear on the model.)
