DonB Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 So I had a bit of a play around with my hamelyn the plagued tonight. Haven't used him before, and thought I'd have a test against Rasputina. 30pts Rasputina had Ice golem 3 x little golem thingys wendigo hunter hamelyn had 3 x stolen 4 x rats rat catcher nix wench I was actually really surprised how effective the crew was. I figured the rats would be easy targets for all the ice blasts that would be going around. It wasn't until I actually saw the effect of the rat catcher being within 6" just how annoying they are. Rats died, and just respawned. And slow hardly seems to hold them back either. Seemed so easy to swarm models and eat them. The poor hunter deployed forward near an objective and just got eaten so easily. Poor guy. One thing though. When the rats are summoned, they get slow but because they already have this it doesnt stack? So they still have 1ap right? Perhaps that is why they seemed so bad! I ended the game on turn 3-4, rasputina had no chance of grabbing the treasure and was already 1 model down with the golem insignificant.

magicpockets Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Welcome to Hamelin, and social ostracisation from your friends You played the rats right, slow doesn't stack so it's 1ap and 2x(0) each turn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoboStele Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 The problem is that your opponent played Rasputina wrong, LOL. If she targets your Ratcatchers, she still has to deal with the Armor, but she can kill the RCs pretty easily most of the time thanks to her long-range.
