Technologies[edit | edit source]
Tech | Prerequisite | Cost | Effects |
---|---|---|---|
![]() Some choices require next to no thought whatsoever. |
| ||
![]() The deep-seated, profoundly-ingrained desire for revenge consumes and drives one forward. |
| ||
![]() Ever onwards the Druchii armies march, conflict's breakneck rhythm dictating the pace. |
| ||
![]() Every aspect of the Druchii world is directed to warfare, as it should be when war is a permanent state of affairs. |
| ||
![]() Through glorious warfare we may become worthy of Khaine's favour. |
| ||
![]() For the Dark Elves, war is transactional - for Druchii blood to be spilled there must be payment, in the form of loot, preferably. |
| ||
![]() Letters of Marque may be issued to those who pursue the Witch King's aims as their own. |
| ||
![]() You start with not drowning; once that has been achieved, the rest will swiftly follow - unless a watery grave appeals of course. |
| ||
![]() Definitely not backwards in coming forwards, or indeed when getting stuck in. |
| ||
![]() Start as you mean to go on and your population will never know what they may be missing. |
| ||
![]() Ah, the suffering. The sweet, sweet suffering. |
| ||
![]() There's always more work to be done and, fortunately, a constant stream of unfortunate wretches whose only option is to do it. |
| ||
![]() A whisper here, a murmur there; winning is often most satisfying when others don't know you're playing. |
| ||
![]() Research the following items to take the Dark Elves' vicious military machine to another level of cruelty altogether. |
| ||
![]() Steel is only as strong as the hand that wields it. |
| ||
![]() You'll like this, it's got a fast-action reload; you can kill the Asur all day long without pausing for more than a second. |
| ||
![]() To strike like lightning and then melt away - that is the way of the irregular warrior. |
| ||
![]() Who could have imagined that the fingers of slaves would have so many uses? |
| ||
![]() The merest swish of leather is enough to make them alert and simply dying to obey. |
| ||
![]() It does one's temperament good to channel aggression via the appropriate outlet. |
| ||
![]() They *will* obey, their own will buried deep beneath an overwhelming urge to comply. |
| ||
![]() Being beaten, half-starved and kept perpetually in darkness coaxes the very best work from the enslaved. |
| ||
![]() It is often necessary to execute a few - publicly of course - to quench the fires of revolt in all the others. |
| ||
![]() Where better to become proficient in the arts of war? Where the very soil is stained with the blood of failure! |
| ||
![]() There is no place in the Druchii's empire of cruelty for those of a mild disposition. |
| ||
![]() Praise him, for he is the God of Murder and the Lord of War. Khaela Mensha Khaine, the Bloody-handed, above all others! |
| ||
![]() A gathering of those perversely in thrall to the Dark Prince, in the hope that his fickle eye be turned - and, thusly, his favour secured. |
| ||
![]() Research the following items to take the Dark Elves' vicious military machine to another level of cruelty altogether. |
| ||
![]() Muscle, flesh, and the skeleton that binds them can be finely tuned for maximum violence. |
| ||
![]() The hardest of substances, when heated to the optimum temperature, may be drawn into mail, plate or scale. |
| ||
![]() Some creatures have a natural outer carapace, so hard that it may double as armour once removed from its original owner. |
| ||
![]() To reach certain destinations, one does not always need to see the way. |
| ||
![]() Society's detritus may yet find gainful employment in the service of the state. |
|||
![]() Criminals make surprisingly good guards once it is made abundantly clear that the alternative is death. |
| ||
![]() They live apart from the rest of Dark Elf society, waging an endless war against the enemies of Malekith. |
| ||
![]() To the victor go the spoils - be they coin or place or the lives of the defeated. |
| ||
![]() When hatred consumes the soul, what other reason can there be to carry on living? |
| ||
![]() Austerity, and the absence of any kind of warmth, can produce unexpectedly-positive results. |
| ||
![]() This aeons-old maxim never stops being true, and a most effective stratagem. |
| ||
![]() In the Elven world, there are none more adept in the ignoble art of stealthy killing. |
| ||
![]() Research the following items to take the Dark Elves' vicious military machine to another level of cruelty altogether. |
| ||
![]() Used to slaying their own kin at the first sign of fragility or compassion, Naggarothi armies constantly prune their own ranks. |
| ||
![]() Black steel, mixed with sacrificial blood and etched with powerful runes, makes the best armour produced in Naggarond. |
| ||
![]() The ornate, ceremonial weapons used in Khainite rituals give power to subsequent acts of murder carried out in his bloody name. |
| ||
![]() The many razor-sharp barbs and hooks may catch an opponent's blade, or rend their flesh. |
| ||
![]() The dark, feral Cold Ones must be broken to the will of their new masters. |
| ||
![]() A source of great power, Black Dragon Eggs must be nurtured correctly so their potential is exploited to the fullest extent. |
| ||
![]() So ferocious is the Hydra that their ravenous nature has proven the doom of many. |
| ||
![]() An even more vicious breed of Cold Ones is now being born in captivity, raised on a strict diet of live flesh and warm blood. |
| ||
![]() Everyone, be they of high or low birth, have good cause to be fearful of who is watching and what they might tell the authorities. |
| ||
![]() There is no tolerance for failure in Naggarond, no matter how trivial the error. |
| ||
![]() For what would the interminable millennia mean, if not for savage cruelty, blood and death? |
| ||
![]() Every depraved, degenerate, impure licentiousness; everything to excess, for that is the Dark Prince's wish. |
| ||
![]() Where daylight hangs by a lunar noose. And the horned, hidden one is re-invoked. |
