but wave 4 has been delayed. some  problems  with  casting  quality and it will  be released  in february.  If any french speaker  read this . could they  elaborate on this . please? 

[Omphalos]

The wave 4 is effectively delayed of one month. That means that the january wave will be released in february. The next waves will going on with two month between each. So basically, what was expected to be release in march will arrive in april and so on...

The Wave 4 (february) will be :

Demon: Tsilla + 2 lemures + Grain de sable [Sand dust]
Sarracens: Layla+ 2 lemures
Losts: Vorenus + Le Grouillant [the Crawler]

I just hope, I didn't made mistakes.

I've always been interested in picking up a couple of copies of Ravage, does anyone know a French online store that sells it?

I guess it would be good to know which issue this information is in too.

Prestige ( his officer faction).

But in a Don or Rossinante list, his Prestige is for mercenaries models or for mercenaries and westerners (in case of Don) /  mercenaries, westerners and saracens (in case of Rossinante)?

[Darth-Swen]

In a Don or Rossinante list, Prestige applies for Mercenaries and mercenaries only, as defined by the note: "his officer faction"
You may argue that in this case it doesn't give you any bonus and you'll be right   

Prestige is useful only when Götz is used in another faction...we'll have to deal with it. "C'est la vie"

But isn't that redundant?  Say, he is in a Sarrasen list with obviously a Sarrasen Officer.  He would then have Prestige: Sarrasen, but would already be in a list of that faction, correct?  Or am I interpreting Prestige wrong?

[Darth-Swen]

I think you misunderstand the rules for the limitation of "warriors" (troupiers) allowed into a faction.

The maximum number of warriors from your faction (defined by the officer) you may enrole is the addition of all the CMD points of your officer and independants from this specified faction. Note the CMD points provided by a Mercenary independant can only be used to enrole Mercenary warriors.

This is where Prestige in terresting with Gotz. His capacity allows you to add his 1 CMD point into the calculation for the maximum numbers of warriors from the Faction of its officer, and not only a Mercenary warrior.

Check out the sneak peaks Gotz is on there!

I think I get it now.  So an Officers command when you build your list gives you your maximum number of faction warriors/troops?  I'm only able to go off of the English version of the Quickstart Rules right now, but the more info I can get on how the full game plays the more I love this game 

Thanks
