Shank Seamus! Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Morning all, So here's what's baffling me, Orphelia can't take piggies, the pigapult doesn't come with any... so why in the story of said contraption does it say that the la croux family essentially invented it in a fued with the hedfields family? I want piggies! SS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angor Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Doesnt the Taxidermist allow you to field pigs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumb Luck Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 You can still put Pere in it and launch him. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shank Seamus! Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 The taxidermist states you can only hire stuffed pigs if you include him, unfortunately Orphelia just outright says no to pigs at all.. I did spot the ability to launch Mr ravage, but seems stupidly costly for a one turn use.. Just doesn't make any since for Orphelia to not be able to take pigs, id understand no war pigs or only stuffed pigs, perhaps if the pigapult had a way to summon one a turn, but seeing as the la croix had at very least, a hand in creating it, and the same passage says they used explosive pigs.. why can't I have a fluffy bayou list?

Adran Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 The taxidermist can turn corpse counters into stuffed pigs, so it is possible to get ammo for your pigapult without starting with any pigs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shank Seamus! Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 ..agreed, however if your flinging your gremlin 24'' and you can summon within 6, your unlikely to summon much close enough to launch, its also cast on 11 requiring a feather suit.. so not easily done.. Still brings me to the point that Orphelias family made the contraption, so why can't she take the ammo..? Would like to thankyou for all the input tho.. SS!

CannonFodder Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 You can take Pere and a couple bayou gremlins and blow them yourself, leaving corpse counters for taxidermist. Pere will still be alive but only usable for a one shot slingshot with Ophelia. You should have 2-3 corpse afterwards, which you can use turn one to make stuffed piglets.

Sholto Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Bear in mind that if you have a Strategy or Scheme that involves getting places before the opponent, launching Bayou Gremlins is a hilarious way of doing it I can also confirm that the look on your opponent's face when you achieve Deliver The Message with a Pigapulted Gremlin is sweeter than unicorn tears!

Necromorph Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 You'd have to take aprox. 3-6 Gremlins, kill them with a pulse or blast (Pere or Raphael) and then have the taxidermist start making stuffed piglets. Granted it gimps your ss pool and you only get limited shots, but that's basically the only way you could use it for Lacroix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ispep Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 In a larger game adding in a Hog Whisperer within range of dying Gremlins but out of the blast radius himself would add decent card filtering as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shank Seamus! Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 I appreciate all the advice, and I'm looking forward to the look on my opponents face when I start hurling piggies at him.. Still a little disappointed that her rulings contradict the background, but at least I have a way around it for the mean while.. thanks all SS!

Csonti Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 You can hurl Ophelia with it. That was game winning move in several games of mine. Remember, altough you can't cheat the Df-duel SS use is perfectly ok. So you have a very decent chance to make it (95+% or so). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why god invented Slop Haulers!!! Kill 2 or 3 Gremlins with the blast, then heal Pere back with a slop Slop Hauler...not a bad idea now that I think about it, hehe.
