While many, many cities, strongholds and other places are built around Realmgates, we usually only hear about one side of those Gates.

But there are exceptions to this. Places where both sides are given, if not equal attention, enough description that we can get a clear picture of them.

• The most obvious is Hammerhal, with both Aqsha and Ghyra being full Cities of Sigmar into themselves yet forever symbiotically linked together by the Stormrift Realmgate.
• Gothizzar and Arx Terminus, connected by the Endgate are seemingly Nagash's answer to this, though Arx Terminus is more of a massive super-fortress than a city, but with the Ossiarchs, the difference is kind of moot.
• Droggz the Sunchompa's lair extends on bothsides of Zonquil's Shortcut. The Aqshyian side in the Cupricon range is shaped like a massive wolf's head and surrounded by frazzlemist while the Hyshan side is plunged in unending Darkness by the amount of light-stealing gubbins.
• Technically, Skrappa Spill and the Fungal Asylum count, but the latter being a Pocket Realm entirely under Skraggort's control makes it feel more like a "secret room" of Skrappa Spill than a part of the kingdom laying in a separate land, if you get me.

Which others can you think of?

Both Death and Destruction have a huge centerpiece unit that can be taken by any army (except Felsh-Eaters for some reason) in Nagash and Kragnos. These two represent the overall leader and the most powerful member of their Aliiances resepctively.

I feel like it would make sense for Order and Chaos to have the same. However the obvious candidates for these positions would be Sigmar himself (who, in my opinion, should never appear on the tabletop himself) and Archaon (who already is as part of the S2D army). So I think the best choices would be:

• Dracothion, Grandfather of all Dragons for Order and
• Krakanrok, Father of the Dragon-Ogors for Chaos.

Thoughts?

I didn't see any mention of Daemonic Power Points in the Anvil of Apotheosis rules. Are they not used in Path to Glory battles? Or is the hero the one unit in the army who can't use them?

Also, if my hero is a Wizard and I take the Oracle of Hashut amelioration, he now has both Wizard(1) and, effectively, Priest(1). How does that work? Can he cast a spell AND a Prayer each turn or do I have to chose? What if I use Power through Dark Pacts to boost his power level?

So I was having a look at the units from Silver Tower and I noticed that, unlike everyone else, these two don't seem to fit any faction on the tabletop. The Mistweaver could be an unusual-looking Idoneth but the lack of marine elements in her design really makes me doubt that. As aelves who seemingly use Grey magic, I think they might be part of Malerion's yet unseen faction. Or they're just their own things.

Have they appeared anywhere else? What do you think?

Also, I wish the Deathrunner were part of the Eshin refresh. That model looks super cool and it fits well as an intermediary rank between Gutter Runner and Deathmaster. Could have been an elite infantry unit, I don't know.
