daemonkin Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Hi guys, Anyone had any experience or luck with using Night Terrors? They seem quick, cheap and might fill a versatile role in a Ressie list. Plus the artwork looks great and I can't wait to see the models. I'm imagining using them with Nico and some vultures, like some freakish take on Batman, sending out his flying minions... D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin1981 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 You probably wont get alot of input due to them not being out until next month. But if you were going up against a shooty crew it would be nice to have like 2 I think to help make their shooting not as effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necromorph Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I've always wondered about them, I might have to give them a try with Mcm. It seems though (and I know they're spirits) that they will just get gunned down first and then you're kinda f'd on wasted points. I guess I'd have to see a swarm of them go to work on some Guild or something to truly be convinced. They look sweet as hell though and I would love the models regardless, lol.

Odin1981 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Yeah they won't last forever but if you have them take up ap's wasted on killing them instead of models that shooty crews need to target priority in the end it's a plus because good models are wasting activations on 3 point models(assuming they just don't get charged).

Calmdown Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 They look pretty poor to me. They're an expendable, cheap, fast model so it's nice to have access to them. But, just because they have an ability that disrupts shooting doesn't mean they will. To blind something they have to hit it, and they aren't very good in combat. To use their aura they have to be within (6" is it?) of the model they're stopping shooting. Etc. The best you can really hope for is that they absorb more gunfire than your average 3 point model would while your opponent blows them up, and move your crew up under that cover. The problem is we have models that are so much more effective at causing issues for ranged crews (Belles) for cheap points costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephir Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I think they will be best at objective grabbing. They are fairly quick moving spirits with Fly. My only beef with this role is Necro-Punks seem to fill it better.Also I don't have my book on hand, but I believe they have a WP debuff. That can be very strong for Ressers.

jmp_mydog Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I've found they work best when paired with Shikome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wodschow Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Compared to the Guild Watchers they offer a little less utility for better survivability.. To be honest though, when I look at their profile the irresistible Wp debuff seems all they're good for (other than objective grabs)..

Nightjar Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I've found they work best when paired with Shikome. This occurred to me as well, and I was wondering if they would make good Beast companions for a Shikome. Can you elaborate on your experiences with the pair up?

kizzle Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 I was actually thinking about picking up a box just for shooty lists i might have to face (mostly guild) to help my lovely belles out! I think they can fulfill two roles one as a distraction unit as is to make my opponent kill them so they can shoot me at a distance and give my crew time to do other things or make my opponent move closer to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kizzle Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Also i forgot the wp debuff trigger which can help immensly for further targets than seamus wp debuff for lure and hanged up feild. Also cheap costs Consider myself sold on them, plus model looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
