Brettqpublic Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 I was just wondering what peoples' experiences have been with the Scales. Loading up Lady J's hand before she puts boots to faces seems really good although you'll probably have to cheat to use any spells. Do people use the Totem's spell casting ability and overall is the totem worth 2 points? Thanks, Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bigglesworth Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 I was just wondering what peoples' experiences have been with the Scales. Loading up Lady J's hand before she puts boots to faces seems really good although you'll probably have to cheat to use any spells. Do people use the Totem's spell casting ability and overall is the totem worth 2 points? Thanks, Brett Totem utility is based mostly on magical extension then its special abilities second. Magical extension for Lady J is situational at best. If you need to hit Pandora her totem becomes one of the best choices. Also a lot of other crews have you do a duel before targeting them and her totem can help a lot in bypassing that. Scale's abilities are actually quite useful but I don't feel they are worth it unless I need to use magical extension. My answer a great option but not auto include. I usually field student of conflict more often with her. I feel she is a bit slow but with fast and melee expert her thread range becomes ridiculous. 15"-17". Also because she doesn't need los for charges this becomes even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Mine once killed a rouge necromancy. So yes. But on topic, the (0) draw a card / discard a card is very good, and you can give melee expert with magical extension to your death marshalls. Or the Executioner. The melee expert on the Executioner alone worth the 2 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 One of my players swears by it to give dogs Melee expert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Yeah, I've used it to good effect giving hounds Malee Expert. It can also be quite cheeky with a watcher to get a good card into to control hand if neither are needed urgently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucket Monkey Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 I find him useful, but again situational and crew dependant to get the best out of himm temaed with a watcher or two he can make the most of the (0), and tip the scales can help get past some of the negative flips out there like zorida and lucius. Haven't used it to spam melee expert but will defiantely give that a go, especially on the hounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin1981 Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 I think that with the watcher now being out he wouldn't be so good. For 1 point more you get a fast significant model who has a better card sculpting mechanism also the in built trigger to make enemies lose terrifying/pitiful/harmless. Also on a totem vs totem basis the proxy has a higher cast and a in built ram as well for the melee expert spell. Granted if you like the model take him. But I do feel he suffers now that there are superior options to bring for each thing he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
