  1. Well I've got shill in to anya in round 1,so leaning towards scheme marker removal, assassinate and then going from there, currently flip flopping between arik and emmy while bring hannah and a bunch of support models with hope that a rocket boots friecorpman will do business along side shill for symbols while I kill anya then score research mission or something

    Okay another question - while the applications of the Timeworn Blade are obvious, when / how do you use the other artifacts? Do you just use them for the Fast bonus, or are there situations that you really like the benefits provided?

    Know the warrior is a great and undervalued ability which is great on anything that's going to end up with focus, samurai, fuhatsu, sadher

  3. yes so essentialy the attack action is a sperate action but is still an action so you will get hit my molly if you swing with the same melee attack twice 

     

    as for effects, essentialy think of it that you cant start a new action till all effects generated by a previous one are resolved 

     

    so you resolve everything to do with the charge action and any charge effects, then you attack and resolve any effects that don't result in a new action, you then take another action (assuming you have the AP left)

  4. I've seen you mention you have a errata a few times for colodi and wonder why you can't use it in the world series. For my point of view a 1 person errata isn't balanced, that's why you have teams of game testers and so allowing her off the bat without a period of testing isn't going to be a good idea. And by that I mean outside of competition, we don't want to ruin a world series event due to someone soloing a still op colodi to victory and everyone being sour from that fact. 

     

    In addition if means in order to be fair we have to then do the same to balance all the dmh models which means the time and effort it takes is 5 times as big as we don't only have to work on colodi but also lilith, ramos, Ryle ect. We then have to deal with the fact that neverborn have more masters than anyone else which we then have to take in to account for the balance and that all takes time that can be dedicated to other projects as far as the world series is concerned 

     

     

    There for for the time being we aren't going to allow dmh, because we could spend 100s of hours to fix dmhs issues and appses a small persentage of community while making lots of people upset as that's people who don't want to play with dmh or non official models or the fact they have to use something other than the app to be aware of where there opponents models do 

     

     

    This may change in the future but for the time being dmh along with multiple masters won't be a thing

  5. The captain isnt a bad model he's a tech pick. E. G a model you bring in certain match ups, for example vs perdita/orphelia/parmer/seamus however as outside of seamus these don't tend to do massive hits of damage he isn't likely to do much in a Hoffman crew, more likely to just be taking lots of 1 points due to the mass armour 2 in Hoffman, he's much better on a non armoured crews where middle of the storm can save vs damage 

     

    His shockwaves are great vs bubbles though and we don't have a lot of shocks (captain, Willie and fire Golem I think are our only shocks) and 2in melee is real nasty vs gunfighter

  6. I mean if you want to play the Plaag way sure..... I think tonis streanth is her tankness which comes from unionised and Fitz, especially if its a pool where you don't need to break her bubble, Howard makes fighting in the bubble a plain, captain protects the bubble from shooting, amina protects the bubble from combat and Fitzsimmons just protects the bubble from damage, so generally I always run Fitz and then run captain or amina 

     

    Then as your in the bubble and this is a combat crew you want some healing so medi bot with magical training is nice for bedside manner and it's heals and takes the pressure off mouse 

     

    Then it's fill in from there 

     

    Yes you can play the Plaag allstar list but then why both playing a synergy master at all which is what ironsides is, you might as well play colette or lady j or mccabe or some other master that doesn't give a dam about their keyword, unionised and injured workers act art part of what makes toni great, and if you come in with the idea of just abusing bring it and hazardous, what do you do when your hazardous producer dies?

  7. Yes the vassal World Cup was a team event. 3 man teams with each player having to play a different faction 

     

    There has been a couple of team events as well, we had an event called the ITC here in the UK which was 5 man teams each with a different faction 

     

    There has been talk of a team 6 nations event at some point but no idea where that's up to with covid

  8. well ended up going with a realy aggressive crew of mah, totem, popcorn, alphonse, wheel of doom, porkchop and sparks and ended up losing 7-4 but generally a very respectable result considering the difference in skill (my opponent is one of the uk best and someone who I don't normally come close to on points this is by far my best result vs him) plan was to put bombs on stuff and make on of them fast with sparks before throwing things forward with alphose and realy make a mess of things early before the blight train started rolling. that was hinded massively by alphonse black jokering his 0 action which ment i couldnt toss anyone and instead he essentialy couldnt do anything with him turn 1 it also ment i had to waste an AP of the doom wheel steamrolling forwards rather than having it tossed and then being able to tripple wheel though his crew. i also failed the third wheel which ment i couldnt get the wheel to his table edge and relative safety so it took more damage than i liked 

     

    I also made an entire miss play of vendetta that denyed me a point (popcorn vs benny and i ran popcorn the wrong way turn one away from benny for some reason) but yer fun game and a few diffrent moves and a bit of better luck in the game and might have got a closer loss or even a draw out of this. my opponent did great though even dispite it being his first game of hamlin 

     

    on to round 3 and playing orphelia and all the pew pews

  9. well i've played my round 1 this evening and came out with an 8-4 win

    my opponent brought a list expecting a fight I think and I Was happy not to give him one, bad juju and waldergiest held out till turn 3 giving my opponent a single vp for research mission while silirids, gups and spawn mother ran rings around the flanks getting me all the points 

     

    on now to round two and between mah and zipp for who im thinking of taking

    And I'm actually against Jedza...

    Eek, what to do? I assume Carrion Emissary is a must? EDIT: Wowza, Carrion Emissary coffins can block so many chokepoints on this map!! Maybe everyone should be considering the model.

    Who have you declared? Molly? 

     

    Anti healing is a good option so hanged/urami/sloth are all worth a look at

     

    Do your best to break the jedza bubble, don't waste time trying to kill a model within 6 of jedza, try and block los/lure it out 

     

    Be aware of where Mikhail is, his placement and caught in the ring is terrible, nothing worse than you swinging on something, it healing cos you missed and Mikhail jumping within two and you waste an action because your engaged by Mikhail but not engagining him 

     

    And kill emmy/Mikhail when you can, they are going to cause you lots of pain. Either that or avoid them and go after the symbols, that's prob key, let them have claim jump and work around them

  11. Bottles of drink/food if your venture doesn't provide it 

     

    And I don't mean just for lunch time, your going to be talking long periods of the day and you don't want to have a sour throat by the end of it 

     

    And deodrant. Things might be different in a post covid world but gaming events are tightly packed, generally poorly venterlated halls, and there are some real unpleasant smells on occasion when you get to round 3 and people are already warm and also anxious about final round placement adding to sweat factor
