WWHSD 2,854 Report post Posted July 11, 2017 Wow. An AoE horror check that pushes anyone that passes it as a zero action is pretty nasty. Being able to make one model that passes take 2/3/4 damage on top of that is scary. I'm wondering if the ranges on this make it look better on paper than it will be on the table. I really can't wait to see what the upgrades for masters in the factions I play end up being. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kouzelnik 101 Report post Posted July 11, 2017 Just now it looks like in comparison with "Do you know who I am" Lady J's "Swordfighter" seems....pathetic. Poor blind girl. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope it turns out to be worth playing Seamus for. At this point, I'll take anything that actually gives Seamus table time... I'm cautiously optimistic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andre III 20 Report post Posted July 11, 2017 I may be mistaken, but for now this upgrade looks just awesome. This is AoE Horror duel, that can increase its TN every turn, it heals already exceptionaly resilient master, and messing enemy models at the same time. Gimme, gimme.

emiba 492 Report post Posted July 11, 2017 Ok, n00b-question time. The card says one can cause 2/3/4 damage, I'm guessing that means it's a straight flip, because there's no attack causing it, and thus; it can be cheated? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless of course the target has Hard to Wound or something like that. Really nice way to give out 3-4 dmg (cheating) as well as causing Horror tests, pushing models, and healing your master.

Nicoderm 11 Report post Posted July 12, 2017 I actually think Swordfighter is quite a bit stronger than Do You Know Who I Am. Admittedly I have only played against Lady Justice a handful of times and don't have her stats readily available, but every time I was able to win using her slow speed against her. This upgrade seems to shore up her biggest weakness whereas Do You Know Who I Am doubles down on what he is already good at. Both are amazing but if I had to pick an upgrade which I thought was stronger, I'd give it to Swordfighter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
benjoewoo 150 Report post Posted July 13, 2017 I'm also cautiously optimistic. Barring a hired Hanged, the upgrade favors activating Seamus earlier so that the 0 "hits" more targets. I think per the rulebook, if a model has already passed Seamus' printed Terrifying 12, then the 0 would not work because it's from the same model. I don't think this will significantly hamper Seamus, as you would position and/or plan to him to activate relatively early as needed if you take this upgrade. This also seems a good potential denial upgrade for position based schemes such as Turf War, Extraction, Guard the Stash, etc. Seems to have good synergy with Sin Rep, but if the opponent cheats 1 guy or has someone who doesn't get pushed, this may hurt quite a bit because you're stuck with the printed melee action if you're still engaged. Seamus is really starting to be a spirit master if he's getting an upgrade that favors hiring Hanged and, by extension, Datsue-ba. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
