mojoslayer Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I'm curious how well those blasting caps work, I have some ideas for them, but I fear they may not be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I did nothing with them last night. The miners spent the night chasing the Beasts and could never get into range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkie Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Having a 7" threat range to hit on 5+ isn't very good. Add to that a 20% increase per model and one use only, I'll never take them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixxer Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Are they able to use blasting caps as a stand and shoot reaction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkie Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Yeah. So hitting on 6s... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojoslayer Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 That's too bad, as worthless as they seem it would have been nice to have it be a free upgrade, but miners being only 10 points on their own is pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanNinja Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Worhtless? I don't think so. Worth spending points on multiple small units? I don't think so. I do think they would be a cool upgrade on a unit of 15-20. Why spend the points on them? you can't charge the turn you come in from ambush, so you can use them to throw at a war machine. You just need a few hits and a few wounds to get the job done. Might as well, give it a shot. If you are playing someone with a gunline and they have a few war machines or a war machine and another unit in the back field. You may be able to take care of both those unit in 2 turns instead of 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted March 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Remember, I am trying to take bad or odd units to try make them work. I want to try them. It is the Escalation League. I am using the time to experiment and push the envelope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanNinja Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 I don't think the list or the upgrade is bad though. It actually could work with lots of unit supported charges after the shooting is done, at the point level you are currently playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raindog Posted March 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Painted my first HW and Shield Dwarf in years. It will go in the box as a Warrior, but could be used as a Hammerer (w/ a shield) in a pinch. Next, I started another Hammerer. He is a metal model from a Spanish company I cannot remember the name of right now. I need to do the gold work on him, but he is almost done. Finally, I made two more movement trays, 2x5 and a 1x5. They should be ready to spray tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
