Murphy'sLawyer Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Will there be more than one game? I have to drop off my kid and won't get there till 6. I mean 1000 points? Who doesn't want more than one game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 I am sure there will be more than one late player, if not, I will give you a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Glacius Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 So if undead is touching their coin, do they get any benefit? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanNinja Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 So if undead is touching their coin, do they get any benefit? Yeah, they're undead and get double unbreakable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 So if undead is touching their coin, do they get any benefit? Unbreakable, not unstable. They do not crumble if they lose combat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Unbreakable, not unstable. They do not crumble if they lose combat. If that is the case, can there be some sort of counter-balance for the undead on their opponent's coin? I am all for helping them out, but an unbreakable, non-crumbling unit that can restore models the way the undead do is potentially unmovable. Same for daemons, if they get a similar boost.

Only if you touch your coin which is on the opposite side if the table as your deployment, do you get the cool benefit. If you touch your opponent's coin, you take d6 S1 hits.

rudra34 Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 I get that. I have thought about it and no longer see anything as a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy'sLawyer Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Undead army reaching the other side of the board? Is that a joke? Aside from ethereal troops getting on the token I don't see an issue, they won't get there till turn 6ish. And I got magical weapons and a shaman to deal with the fast cav-ing ethereal.

Threejacks Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 I gather that this is the multiplayer game like the one we started with last fall?..though I don't think we had the objective markers last time. Either way im in!..bringing OnG`s for this round:) Just a mix of a bunch of goofy stuff that wont amount to any sort of winning combination..like I usually bring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanNinja Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 I won't be able to make it this week. I have to work. I am going to show up for week 2; however, I don't know if I will be able to get a game in because I am waiting on a few models and don't know how to proxy a stonehorn (in the event I don't have it in time). With all of that being said. I am planning on participating in the escalation I just don't know when I'll be able to start getting the games in.

Print out a photo of a stone horn and put it on a piece of paper that is the right base size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
