azgadil Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Thanks Khyodee. Another great podcast. Ramos Vox is legit and still has access to Arachnid swarm. Solid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madaxeman Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Interesting ideas in the 'cast. Wouldn't the Mages be a better component for the Vox Populi crew though than the Captain and a minion - all three have up to 3 ranged attacks per turn that have an up to 6" push that deals damage as well as pushing into the terrain - and also benefit from activating late in the turn (ie after the strike markers are down) ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would randomize if they shoot in melee though. The captain doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madaxeman Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Not the end of the world if its spiders in the melee... ! Given the strike markers come off once they have dealt any damage at all to anyone, getting multiple attacks might still be worthwhile I'd have thought. Interesting to see what the 'casters think and why Mages weren't on the list maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katadder Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Just used the list but with a well rehearsed cojo. Cojo is much better for this than the bears I think due to his auto push if set up right and all his push triggers if needed on his melee. Admittedly mostly use the ml7 attack then followed up with his 0 but he killed Francisco and a guild investigator and nearly had lady J too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their push allows the Strike markers to be dropped somewhere that prevents the enemy from closing with you or an objective while Cojo’s push needs the strike markers to be dropped behind the enemy model.

katadder Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 With a 12" drop for markers this isn't difficult and with well rehearsed and the medical automaton he's actually possibly faster. Add in he has a possible 3 pushes with one of them needing no cards I found he was more useful than my bear ( I swapped cojo in for 1 bear so still had 1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbtb11235813 Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 Child is great. He's cheap and for a moderate card puts out 2 more markers that easily do 7 or so damage. I can't think of another model that cheap that can do that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the child copying strike has a higher damage potential, as long as you have another model to push the enemy around 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I think about it, my Wendigo has devoured Ophelia before, who is one of only two (to my knowledge) Ht 1 masters.... Yea Wendigo is still better than the child, but that doesn't mean the child isn't great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
