Stories have power, particularly the great epics, and the elder stone scribes who record such tales can relate them to warriors to restore their spirits. The influence of these tales is such that nearby trollkin draw an uncanny strength from them: mists cloak the warriors, their muscles surge with vigor, and their reflexes flash with unnatural speed.

Thoughts on Stone Scribe Chronicler
Stone Scribe Chronicler in a nutshell
The other warrior support solo for Trolls (alongside the Fell Caller Hero), the Chronicler protects from shooting, protects from melee - or just makes the Trolls hit harder and more accurately.
Combos & Synergies
- Any warrior models. Seriously, any. It helps all of them.
Drawbacks & Downsides
- He's a special order model.
- It's easy to get too much "support bloat" where all your models are helping others kill stuff and there's not enough to actually do the killing.
- Little personal combat potential.
Tricks & Tips
Put hero's tragedy on your skirmish unit that you know are going to die.

Restrictions on "Any Time" abilities ( Edit) [Show/Hide]
- "Any Time" abilities can be used at any time during a model/unit's activation, except:
- Before any compulsory forfeiture of movement/action. See step 2 of the activation sequence, appendix A.
- After the model with the "Any Time" ability has had their activation end "prematurely". By this I mean you resolved something which includes the phrase "its activation ends". Examples include:
- Running, failing a charge, or failing a slam.
- Abilities that include "then its activation ends" (such as Reposition and Teleport).
- In between declaring your charge target and making your charge movement. (Infernal Ruling)
- In between completing your charge movement and determining whether it was a successful charge. (Infernal Ruling)
- When you're in the middle of moving. (Note: Impact Attacks count as being in the middle of movement).
- When you're in the middle of an attack. Which also includes effects that occur "after the attack is resolved".
(Although the attack is "resolved" at Step 11, in terms of using an "Any Time" ability the attack is not "finished" until after Step 14. Refer to the first paragraph of Apdx A.)
- Your opponent interrupted your activation to trigger one of their own abilities (such as Countercharge).
- Warcasters/warlocks/etc can normally cast a spell or use their feat "At any time". However, there is a core rule saying they cannot do so on the same activation that they run. So, they are subject to all the same restrictions listed above, plus they can't cast/feat before running.
- Units: See below.
- In general you can use "Any Time" abilities while you're knocked down or stationary (except Spells and Feats which specify you can't).
- If you have a gun with a random ROF, you can use an "Any Time" ability inbetween rolling the number of shots and actually making the first attack. (Infernal Ruling)
- Units with "Any Time" abilities
- You cannot use an "Any Time" ability before issuing/receiving orders. See step 1 and 2 of the activation sequence, appendix A.
- A model in a unit can't use an "Any Time" ability after they run (Infernal Ruling) or fail a charge. Because that makes that specific model's activation to end even though the unit's activation is still ongoing, and you can't use abilities on models that are not active.
- You can use an "Any Time" ability before running, however.
- A model in a unit can't use an "Any Time" ability after anyone in the unit has begun a Reposition move. (Infernal Ruling)

Rules Clarification : Hero's Tragedy (Edit)
- If your opponent also has something that is resolved at the end of their activation (such as Reposition) there ability resolves first, due to the "Active then Inactive" rule.
