The headliner is a new legendary lord complete with game-changing rules for his faction. Said lord is a herald of the plague god who goes by the name Epidemius, Nurgle's Tallyman. A one-eyed plaguebearer riding a palanquin, Epidemius gets combat buffs when fighting diseased enemies, and earns rewards based on how many other factions are currently suffering from plagues. He doesn't really care about the quality of the diseases, you see—he just likes for there to be lots of them.
The other freebies are a Gold Wizard hero for the Empire, which is a sensible addition given that you could already have a Gold Wizard as your legendary lord, and the Nemesis Crown. This powerful artifact will be hidden somewhere on the map at the start of each campaign, and whoever digs it up can either pop it on their bonce and earn some buffs balanced by nasty debuffs, or seal the evil thing away to prevent others from using it—for a while at least.
The Nemesis Crown provides bonuses like an increase to its wearer's hit points, boosts to the strength of their army's weapons, and increasing diplomatic relations with their own faction. It balances that with debuffs like a significant drop to diplomatic relations with every single other faction.
These freebies will be available alongside patch 5.0 and the Thrones of Decay DLC, which are scheduled for release on April 30.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.Jody's first computer was a Commodore 64, so he remembers having to use a code wheel to play Pool of Radiance.
