4thstringer Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Have you all found a way to take advantage of Bishop's riposte with El Mayor or Protect? I haven't played a lot of bishop, but the one game I did, I buffed him up, and my opponents were pretty unhappy to have to deal with him. Have any of you played him? Do you buff him up? Nellie's fast? Mounted Guard Delivery? What's your strat with him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 I had him and Francisco in a Nellie game. Enemies are often reluctant to attack him when he is buffed. Brought him a couple of times with McCabe and Francisco as well. Basically it makes him playable, not a fan of his base survivability for his cost.

Gnomezilla Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Is he worse than other enforcers somehow? (My books are still buried in the detritus of moving.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludvig Posted December 27, 2017 Report Share Posted December 27, 2017 Yeah, he is super expensive and isn't super survivable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trikk Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 He also has 1" engage which sucks if you`re playing against black blood neverborn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinalForm Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 I use him on a regular basis with Nellie. Debt to the Guild is absolutely needed to increase his potential. Franc gives +2 def, nellie gives him fast and pushes. Now opponent has 1 activation to answer to 4 ap model with min dmg 4 and flurry with df8/wp8.

Tried him with Franc AND guardian, but 10 def doesn't worth it. Hans for 7ss is ok now too and trapper for 7ss isn't ok for Nellie. Taelor is kinda better with armour now. I will try her with Nellie. Specialist is fine for Sonnia too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig Posted January 8, 2018 Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 The specialist still seems iffy to me. Short range so it will get to attackstuff a turn later than Sonnia. You can't chain to use the burning so there's about a 90% chance their activation in between will remove any burning you put out and if they engage the specialist it still sucks. Sonnia is in more need of pushes to herself than she is in need of other ranged attacks on auper slow models that will compete with her for pushes.

He's not Df 10, He's Df 8 (with Protected by Francisco) with two positive twists. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, have no expirience with Hoffmans stuff, it was literaly my first run with anything exept for watcher from his box. Thx for pointing that out. 8 def with is fine but a little too much as I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
