Serigala Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Viktorias, Avatars of Slaughter Focus- Umm....Melee...lots of Melee. IMO Without going into too much detail so as not to spoil it for those who want to be surprised, when the Viks hit the table, it pretty much turns into a giant pinball game of death. They bounce around from target to target doing very high dg. They can also switch places with other friendly units in melee and...well... 8 paired...I'll let you think about that for a minute. Oh...and (Spoiler)...did I mention paired and (+2) Melee Master...ouch. They keep Whirlwind from their Master form. Viktorias 1-One Vik must kill an enemy while under the affect of SoB:Fury cast by the other Vik. 2-Both Viks use their Whirlwind trigger on enemies. No real surprises in the Avatar form. Sounds pretty potent, without dramatically changing the way they will play. I'm not overly impressed by their avatar artwork though. As we don't even have a release date for the model, does anyone have any ideas for proxying? I suppose the obvious is just mounting 2 Viks on a 50mm base, but it won't look very dynamic.

emissary Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Are they both on 1 50mm base? If so just putting the master model on a 50mm base is what we plan to do for unreleased avatars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necromorph Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Yes I believe they are both on 1 50mm for the avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolomyte Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 I actually thought they recieved a pretty hefty boost in power in avatar form, Thought I have not read the book enough to say that for sure. I agree the concept art looks a bit animeish for my tastes, but to proxy I would put both on a 50mm base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamwyrd Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 They are insane in avatar form. Paired 8 magical weapons with a + on the dmg flip is huge. Only draw back is they have to strike or charge as their first action or take 2 wds, they charge for 1 AP but stop activation if not in melee range of the target. Chg 8. Etc. Don't want to spoil them anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odin1981 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) Think the coryphee duet (mobility wise) but with a damage range on steroids. (I also assume that you will be taking 2 wds alot to (0) first "my kill") cause just about everything in the game is gonna go running crying to their mommies. There are potentially only 3 things in the game that could survive an activation of them and all 3 have to activate before them to go defensive stance they quite truthfully live up to their name "the avatar of slaughter".
