the cook book gives us loremaster now from some rumor... so if you stick it on a lvl2 fire, here you go, loremaster!
That's from Zephyr's, so far less than accurate, list of rumours though...

Agreed! Few things in that list seems plausible...

About the loremaster ability from the halfling cookbook, it will probably be a butcher only item and not be available for the fire-eater.
About the fire caster, I remember that they was talks of an unit with a firebreath, and this model is supposed to have fumes and/or flames coming from his mouth, so this seems probable and keeping in theme.
I hope myself that hunters won't be characters anymore, they would be perfect as rare choices (with or without a stonehorn mount) where they wouldn't have to compete with the usual General/BSB/Caster(s) that already tend to use all our character % for our armies.

Although all the new stuff is very awesome, it's hard coming to terms with fact that we're actually going to have to make some *gasp* difficult choices when making a list, in all 3 editions of the book's existence there have been lots of very easy decisions to make.
I don't suffer from mental instability. In fact, I enjoy it immensely.
Gutlord Inquisitor: FORUM FIGHT! Me, I'm betting on the stronghold. Sure, they're outnumbered with thick skulls, stubborn bull-headedness and an inflated sense of self-worth, but hey, they're Ogres.

Apparently, the mini is holding a flaming torch and is fire-breathing as in the circus act style. Still haven't seen it myself though.

Awesome if it is true.

Another rumour from Warseer:
"You get ogre magic, beasts, heavens and death mates
With the caveat that if you have slaughtermasters/butchers in the army, at least one of'em (no restrictions as to which) must take ogre magic.
You also get a separate type of mage - fire mage. It is surprisingly cheap for what it does - aside from being a mage (upgradable to lvl 2 at standard cost) with ogre-character stats, he gets partial ward vs flaming attacks, flaming attacks, weapon selection and... wait for it... S4 breath attack.

I have a homemade Butcher with a flaming staff to represent the Bang Stick. Sounds like I won't have to buy anything new...
...yet. I'm pretty sure I will want to.
