=Thoughts on Kolgrima=
===Kolgrima in a nutshell===
Kolgrima is an ice witch from the frozen north. Her spells and abilities focus on hexes, wards, witchcraft, and a more feral style of magic. She is elemental in nature. She is not a combat character and has a weak attack.

Her role seems to be focused on delivery of her army in one piece- shutting down shooting for an entire turn, and then using well-placed clouds to prevent counter-charges. With Hunter's Mark she can make surprising piece trades.

===Feat thoughts===
Her Feat is centered around giving you the alpha strike - shutting out enemy shooters and then relying on you being able to use the terrain.

===Spell thoughts ===
* Freezing Mist is a cloud. Use it to block enemy LoS or as a MAT/RAT debuff, and remember it can be really obnoxious to block models that want to charge.
* Vanish is her "get out of dodge" spell. Teleport her behind some nice solid walls.
* Her offensive spells are all useful in different ways. Single wound shield walls, for example, hate Cursed Fate.
* Do not underestimate Winter's Tide. SP10 can really go deep, especially with [[Mulg]] channeling or Kolgrima using Vanish. The Northkin Elder can make this a POW 14 and that combined with Dark Power makes it deadly to anything short of heavies and battle engines, yet crit freezes can help to stymie even them. It can't hurt cold-immune models but you can use this to your advantage by using a Northkin Shaman (perhaps with his own Chiller spell) to get perfect placement of a spray or to unjam an Earthborn or Brawler.

===Drawbacks & Downsides===
* She's an offensive spell-slinger (three offensive spells out of five) with no channeling ability outside of taking Mulg in Power of Dhunia.
* She has low defensive stats.
* Kolgrima is very powerful but difficult to play well. She has a lot of options on any given turn and it's easy to choose the wrong ones.

===Tricks & Tips===
* Her feat is a pulse meaning it applies to all enemies caught in it when she uses it.
** On the plus side there's no walking out of her feat to fire in
** On the minus side models can e.g. be granted Pathfinder by a [[Fell Caller Hero]] or just use [[:Category:Relentless Charge|Relentless Charge]] to gain Pathfinder.
* You can use her knife to stab your own guys.
* You can play clouds pretty far forward and shut down the enemy ability to see your army that way on feat turn.
* When played in the Storm of the North theme force, all warrior models gain Immunity: Cold, so you can cast Winter's Tide over/targeting your own models for optimal placements or clearing out stuff in melee.
* Prowl can be triggered with freezing mist easily and it does not discriminate on faction.

=List Building Tips=
===Strategy===
Kolgrima can win by 1) using her clouds to get one big alpha strike and thus an insurmountable lead on attrition, or 2) cheating piece trades and controlling the board to grind out attrition over multiple turns, or 3) going right after the opposing caster as soon as there is an opening, with multiple sprays followed up by a combat solo or warbeast.

===Theme Thoughts===
Kolgrima is a debuff caster that lowers enemy DEF, and has a control feat, as well as a movement buff. It's a useful combination and because it doesn't give targeted buffs she can work with almost anyone. She's not a beast caster, however, and doesn't boost damage - so [[Power of Dhunia]] is out of the question. Generally she is played in [[Storm of the North]] [[Vengeance of Dhunia]] or [[Band of Heroes]]. She doesn’t typically play in [[Kriel Company]] (though she can) because her cloud wall starts to cause her order of activation issues with the mostly ranged options in that theme and separately as she doesn’t crack armour she can’t really sort out the themes weaknesses.

'''[[Storm of the North]]'''
* [[Battle Bears]] & [[Bumbles]] - it’s all about the ambush threat with hunters mark
* [[Northkin Shaman]] - adds to her cloud wall.

'''Options Available in all 3 themes'''
* [[Krielstone]] with the [[Northkin Elder]] a cold damage buff improves her assassination ability.

===Army===
* There's one thing clouds synergize well with: other clouds. The [[Northkin Shaman]] and the [[Swamp Gobber Bellows Crew]] make clouds.
* The Shaman also works well with the Northkin Elder and Kolgrima's Cursed Fate spell.
* The [[Sea King]] drops a 4" of water into the enemy, and your feat shuts down most abilities (except [[:Category:Amphibious|Amphibious]]) that would let the enemy move through it freely.
* Owl's Wisdom is great for a Gargantuan or Battle Engine to protect them from crippling spell effects.
* [[Northkin]] warbeasts like the [[Dire Troll Brawler]] can gain speed from the Northkin Elder that Kolgrima wants anyway. She can spray them with impunity because they are immune to cold. The Brawler's reach can help to protect her by threatening free strikes or get extra mileage out of Hunter's Mark. [[Rok]] and the Ice and Winter Trolls gain a nice bonus to their ranged damage from the Elder as well.
