Cornelious1424 Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Who do you tend to put this on? I'm finding I really like giving Taelor the option to be fast in a key activation!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malicte Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Viktoria of Blood. Vanessa, Lazarus (move and then Auto Fire is filthy), Bishop (because 4 AP is great), or really anybody who benefits from an extra AP, which is just about any outcast hitter. Killjoy would be fine with it as well. Really your best mileage is either on a unit whose AP are very valuable (so, for example, any of these expensive hitters) or on a model where an extra AP would grant something they normally don't have, such as Lazarus or Von Schill, allowing them to reposition before unloading.

NeverEnding Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 I like it on the Librarian as well. Move- Furious Casting or Furious Casting- Heal. Has been pretty clutch for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Zinc Lich Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Ah, so many good upgrades, so little time. I find myself having to drop Oath Keeper to make room for Survivalist and other upgrades a lot of times. I do tend to run very heavy on healing, though. Hard to Kill makes a big difference on the Viks when you have Vanessa and a Librarian in the backfield high-fiving and healing the business end of your crew every round. It's also golden on Nix, who needs to be hit twice *in a row* in melee, or else she (he?) heals back above the threshold. Anyway, this isn't about how great Survivalist. I think that Oath Keeper is a godsend on anything with a meaty 2 action. Lazarus, Gunslingers, Alyce, Johan, etc. I also think it is very useful for Hans, as it makes "Smile, you son of a..." much less all-or-nothing. Focus, "Smile", shoot or "Smile" and then double shot greatly increases the chances of it working. Don't forget that you can put it on pretty much any undead or construct model if you are running Leveticus. Getting to Harpoon => flurry with a Peacekeeper is a good way to ruin someone's day. And face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouseketeer Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Pokey Vik gets it a lot.. Bishop, Taelor, Killjoy, Nothing Beast, Laz.. Anything big and stompy really... If it's 10+ stones. Oathkeeper is good. On the libby it isn't bad.. Although you can't furious cast heal.. Since furious casting now only lets you cast attack actions (from memory).

Mouse I should have specified I meant use the furious casting for her attacks then extra to pop a free heal or move. My apologies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Hans, Taelor, Bishop, FK Librarian, Lazarus, Vanessa, Johan, Killjoy but never the Nothing Beast though. 80% of his survivability comes from Tara's bury mechanic so I tend to give him Fast that way.

Ryoken Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I actually really like it on Hannah. I run her near the Viks to cast Sisters in Fury with her (0) action. The Sister in Fury bump applies to her, and now she has three melee attacks that will be really really painful with the blast markers. A lot of people do not expect three sets of blast markers clearing out swarms of models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can't target the crew leader with her (0) if it isn't a Freikorps model, and Hannah's not a sister unless you discard Howling Wolf Tattoo or manifest her avatar.

The Zinc Lich Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 It works *if* you have the upgrade in question on Blood Vik. She's not the leader, so she is fair game for make a new entry. The wording on Sisters in Fury specifically says "this model and all other sister models", which is actually pretty cool. You can also nab Sisters in Battle from her or even Vanessa, if needs be. That being said, its pretty rube goldberg to think that you are going to: A: successfully cast Make a New Record within 8 inches of the Blood Vik B: successfully cast Sisters in Fury C: Charge an enemy with Hannah's suspect charge speed of 5 D: successfully get severe damage for the blasts E: have enough enemies clustered for the blasts to really matter. Pow 6 double blast damage is pretty sweet, but the set up is so situational. Also, what does Oath Keeper have to do with this other than the fact that having an extra attack while benefiting from +2 damage is a good thing?

Malicte Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Well to be fair, the Sisters in Fury damage buff does only apply to Ml attacks, so Hans may be left out in the cold there. Sisters in Battle's + to attack flips would still work, though. Personally I feel like my opponents will be seeing a lot of Killjoy + aViks when those rules are done.
