CustardBomb Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Tittle says it all! I have a game against Vin Schiller in a few days and I am wondering how us bayou players are getting around armour in 3e. Any tips tricks or favorite models?

Jesy Blue Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Don't take Mah with the intention of using Pit Traps; don't take Zipp with the intention of using Pianos. Sparks has Analyze Weakness, Gators have Execute, and most of the models lost their immunity to Blasts from last edition so don't be afraid of dropping blasts and pulses and shockwaves everywhere!

ShinChan Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 In addition to what was already mentioned: Half of the Wizz-Bang models have access to anti-armor tricks. In a Kin keyword you have Rami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-El-Tragger Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 The whole Tri-Chi Gang should be really good against thick armor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustardBomb Posted July 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Thanks all! I declared Mah for the match (Hence how I know its up against at Von Schill.) Current List is. Mah - Little Lass 2x Rooster Rider + Inferiority Complex 18 Stones Slop Hauler 6 Stones with tax. Big Brain Brin 8 Stones Soulstone Minor 6 Stones So 38 Stones so far. Gotta work out where my last 12 points! Corner Deployment: Corrupted Idols Detonate Charges, Hold Up their Forces, Take Prisoner, Assassinate, Claim Jump Roosters are gonna take the Slop Hauler to a corner and churn some piglets out to sacrifice to Cursed Idols which will also let the Rooster damage themselves to frantic levels quickly. Hauler can help keep the Roosters healthy once they are under Frantic to. Soulstone can score easy Take Prisoner. Second Scheme is undecided so far. Thinking either Gators to go for execute triggers, or Sparks for Analyze weakness. Mabye Trixie to lure people into some detonate charges or to deny an easy claim jump.

Jesy Blue Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 The cheapest Freikorp is 5 stones, most are 6-7 stones. Unless you take some cheap stuff, forget about Hold Up Their Forces. Assassinate may be difficult as there's a lot of healing in that crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornOnTheBayou Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 I think soulstone miners have access to anti-armour. I would take two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesy Blue Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 Be aware of your surroundings. Probably more than half of their shooting will ignore cover, concealment, and/or line of sight; scouts even ignore friendly fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I can pull it up feild crazy fast. I will be using it to summon some piglets to use for cursed idols (T1: reckless both riders and double move them both up field. Placing scheme markers for the slop hauler, then activate the hauler and summon a piglet plus heal of the reckless damage) and healing the two rooster riders up sp that they dont drop to far below fast from the reckless. (It can also hand out adversary beast which benefits the Riders aswell. But that will be a bonus if it happens) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CustardBomb Posted July 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 Game all done. 6-4 My win (2 corrupt idols, 2 assasinate 2 Take prisoner) to (3 Idols, 1 Hold Up their forces) Slop hauler did great help keep my roosters on the frantic level without being to low also healed chip damage on sparks etc. Forgot to bring my piglet minis so that didnt work out saddly! But handed out adversary to a few key models to. Sparks made his points back easily. Stripped Lazarus of his armour making him an easy kill for Mah. Then did the same for Von Schill letting me secure assasinate. Roosters didnt perform aswell without Inferiority complex. Soulstone minors made take prisoner a breeze! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maciej Posted July 31, 2019 Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 Also Ulix'es pigs have armour piercing triggers and so does Lucky Emissary. Zoraida does not need armour lebetratione because she wins games obeying people. Zip and his buddies can just avoid convencional combat and do their mission while deatrupting enemy. I wouldn't take Brewmaster though. I have a history of him struggling against amroured enemies. And I have no idea what would I do playing Ophelia vs von Shill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannah and one librarian. I used brin to stack the deck late in the turn and without armour he wasnt to hard to deal with. Dropped him low turn 4 as the last activation of the turn then turn 5 activated Mah first to finish him before the healing could come through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesy Blue Posted July 31, 2019 Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 Ah.... tactics! You didn't show your hand until it was too late! Wunderbar, as Von Schill would have said.... if he wasn't dead! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
