8th Ed. Book Called Lustria

[Caprasauridae]

Hello,

I found an eBay sale of Lustria book. Now I have no idea what that book is for. It is from GW, apparently, and has a distinct Lizardmen cover of a Carnosaur with a rider attacking some Skaven. Can any of you tell me what this book is about?

It's a 6th edition book of scenarios for jungle fights and at has some unique army list for
a couple of different races and rules for jungle fighting,
also it has some how-to's for building jungle terrain, a bit of fluff to go along with the rest.

Interesting, but probably not very useful. Except for the terrain building part. The price started from 0.99 pounds so maybe I'll take a look and try to bid if no one else wants it. Thanks for the info, n810.

Yah, it's kind of a LM and Skaven 6.5 book. For the Lizardmen they bring back the Skink Cohort and pre-introduce the Engine of the Gods on a new monster that never went to mold. It's also where Tenehuini is reincarnated as Tehenhauin and given a more beefy model to represent his awesomeness. Since it was 6th edition when we had Sacred Spawnings, they let all the Skinks have the Sacred Spawning of Sotek whereas only Saurus could have Sacred Spawnings in the Army Book. I think it's the first book where they showcased our current Cavalry models also.

Unfortunately it's not a valid rule book anymore. It's a fun read though. The jungle fighting rules are neat and there is some good fluff in it too.

They changed Tenehuini into Tehenhauin? Why do you think they bothered to do that?
