Fandir and
Noght- you guys are doing a great job in the assist. Appreciate it!
However-
Perhaps we should attach him to the Luthor huss unit then for the first one or two turns I would like luthor close to the ruins too so we have two guys channeling better.
I think Fandir is getting so excited about the tactical problem in front of him....that he is forgetting
to use Blue!!
--------------------------------------
I got stuck in Tokyo (
sounds like some kind of movie cliche') so I am on the 'net now, but will be out of pocket most of tomorrow while in the air.
Because of that, I am going to ramble out a few thoughts while I can-
I love the discussion so far. I wasn't too excited about rolling a Magic Circle for terrain...but now that I see it may come into play I am happy it is there!
I think it would be really interesting to see each Team pick a different deployment zone edge for different reasons- as it appears to be shaping up that way at the moment. The two battles will certainly be unique. The
DE units are going to be in purple, but I plan to be saving two separate Battle C files- one with
Blue units for Blue and
Green units for Green. That will ensure that no one will get confused on which graphs depict their battle and their forces!
Interesting many people recommend going after the witch. I play DE all the time... and sometimes I forget I have ways to make life difficult for her. I think it is good to see people thinking about it right up front. With her abilities, she is her own magic cannon.
For her Death she-witch side-kick- I have seen this opponent use Spirit Leech in interesting ways...all of them painful. Characters, Warmachines, STanks, and Arcane Altars have all suffered under her wrath.
One note while I am thinking about it- the DE General is very aggressive in the magic phase and is not afraid to toss dice and take risks to get the spells he wants off. Many times I have wanted to use my Dispel Scroll to protect something early and held off....and my tactical patience usually served me really well in later turns when things really started to get ugly.
One last thing- if anyone has The Battle Chronicler and wants access to the terrain file so you can annotate ideas on it...PM me and I will send you the file.
This is shaping up to be a great throw-down.
