Trial of Air

The Art of Wargaming and General Nerdery Presents... — Thu, 01 Jan 2026 10:00:00 -0700

When on the field of battle, few things can stop us and make us hesitate like the attention of an archer. They are able to reach out and strike us at range the moment we have a lapse in focus, punishing us for our negligence. The Trial of Air challenges us to confront this fear without faltering, purging ourselves of all doubt and delay as we plunge headlong into this confrontation. The Hunter is faced with not just one, but four archers. They must keep focus on all of their opponents without letting themselves become overwhelmed by the odds. In this way, they face down one of the most daunting challenges of battle and learn to act when others might waver. Apostle Kaji joins us to reflect upon his own attempts at this Trial and to share the wisdom he has gained from watching others attempt it over the years.

The Order of the Ash

When people think of the most lethal fighter on a team, the assumption is often that it is the largest or strongest lineman or the most fleet flanker. More often than not, this is not the case. More often than not, the fighter with the highest body count is the archer. Archers are able to extend the threat zone of their team, striking at key targets. Those who carry javelins are able to engage their opponents at mid-range before closing and finishing them off. Finally, the much underrated rock is useful for crushing unwary skulls at close range. Apostle Turkeyfeathers shares his wisdom and experience in the precise art of the Order of the Ash.
