Bishop's riposte and Guild's def bonuses

Recommended Posts

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?

Bye bye McTavish and hello Bishop? :)

Still picking him in every game with nellie. 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.

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.

You're tracking that Protect doesn't add +2 Df, but instead gives the condition Defensive +2, right?
He's not Df 10, He's Df 8 (with Protected by Francisco) with two positive twists.

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 :+fate:+fate is fine but a little too much as I think)
