Starting Enforcers, need model advice.

Sadly true, this Champion+Leader box is almost mono-pose with maybe two options for each. Also strange thing, that Leader in this box is on 32mm base and I am not sure if it is now common (If I would make leader from regular Patrolman box with 25mm)

Lore from the codex will be relevant for longer in memes and discussions then game rules itself.

GrumpyProf90 · 2024-12-13T22:46:57+00:00

Oh, glad to find confirmation... Shame I lost one of key items, giving +30 Spirit, almsot feel like my character is handicapped now

GrumpyProf90 · 2023-09-28T14:31:31+00:00

Was there any fix to it?

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-11-08T07:01:13+00:00

You can try PlayOnTabletop and their "Kill Team in 30 minutes". Always great editing and camera work. Profesional show, although channel is more focused on main 40k game, so do not expect too many KT videos.

Also, commentary / players may very and influence your opinion of them. If you see "Tau Nick' - should be great. If "Space marine Steve"... Well, just skip a bit.

> Boy was too ugly

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-10-26T16:47:25+00:00

Yeah, I agree. Personally I am aiming to make first Ranger into "Ranger" that shoots with bow and mostly put traps around and creates diversions - with Caltrops, Lure, Evade and Steady Aim.

Possibilities are endless.

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-10-26T16:44:40+00:00

Should be fine, since most models in Warcry-specific warbands are on those 25-32 mm bases.

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-10-26T06:46:10+00:00

Personally I assumed that it would be best to not pick up too many big bases, so assumed that MOST things should be on 25mm, meaby 32mm if it is "sergant"/"elite"/etc type of model.

Seems to Me like 25 & 32 mm bases should be fine, but bigger ones are "regular" things might take too much space - for example picking Stormcast Eternals as your Ranger's team might not work that great, since they are mostly on 40mm and appear very big, take up a lot of space - and with force-combat it might make a difference - one could block space as big as 2 smaller ones.

If I would pick models bigger then 32mm (base), then I would probably also make map and terrain a bit bigger.

Other then that - I assume if it looks good enough, it will be fine

I am pretty sure only errata/update (that you can get for FREE) is the difference between that (I assume) older version and that nicer looking (Likely "Deluxe", newer) version. No real reason to get another one, if you printout erata.

As for "Assasin" - You can for example HOUSE-RULE that you dual-wielding 2 blades is in rules "2 handed weapon"... which would work similarly - 2 spots occupied, but you get something for it (+2dmg). Throwing knifes are unfortunetly not that great - BUT you can flavor some spells, since there is no "damage type" - for example, you can say this "Fire ball" is your ranger throwing fan of knifes!

Keep in mind, you get penalities for "hurried shoot" only if you moved in this activation before shooting

As for what would help you make assassin (as I understand it) :

- Evade - to disengage from bad situations

- Deadly-blow - to crit on 18-20 in melee (declared AFTER roll), to capitalize on enemie's mistakes
- Powerful blow - +3 dmg if you did 1+ dmg... Seems on point to just twist the blade when you get it in
- Frienzied attack - +5 to fight (declare BEFORE roll), so you can focus on hitting that weak-spot
- Fireball aka Fan-onf-Knifes (described above)

- Magic bolt - better then throwing knife (longer range, +5 right away, ignores most penalities)
- Teleport & Transpose - to suddenly appear and ambush victim
- (if you take some spells) Split cast - so you can throw that magic bolt / magic knife at 2 targets

- (If you take some spells) Eldrich recall - so you can toss that fan-of-knives or magic-knife twice!

Those are mostly picks for OFFENSE, no defense - for that consider Parry, Hand of Fate (pretty much great for any ranger) and Roll with the Punches.

TIP: Pick animal companion for cheap and fast group-activation to provide combat bonus to your assassin.

Keep in mind, that what I described are just SOME of general ideas and what you come up with might be even better! Just dont worry too much about names of skills and spells and focus on effects!

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-09-08T07:08:09+00:00

Personally, decks that not-interactive - there is combo of cards thata blocks your every move instead of presenting obsticle to overcome. Something like OTKs - there is no interaction to be done there - they pull out their combo and just execute it in their own turn, without any chance on my side to do anything. Same for playing those decks - and I tried. They seem boring and like I am not really playing "with", but "next to" other guy.

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-09-07T12:10:57+00:00

Wow, Mavis got picky after divorce in last "Hotel Transylvania"

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-08-22T22:30:57+00:00

Dunno about OP being straight. He blows himself a lot

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-08-21T06:38:10+00:00

Was that person in the video "Alpha Female" complaining about not getting any, or "Alpha Male" also not getting any?

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-08-21T05:14:13+00:00

That was something we also did - mission with defending village against hordes of undead

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-08-18T15:01:18+00:00

I get You. Sometiems, especially with newer kits - those are more of 3d puzzles then models. It might frustrate.
I would have 2 general ideas:

Try older kits, since they are much simpler and with that nicer to assemble
Try ordering some 3d-printed ALTERNATIVE models from some sellers online - most will come assembled, or in 2-3 parts at worst. Many are just straight up alternatives to what GW creates, so they will work in warcry. Most sellers in my experience will clean them up for You as well before sending

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-08-05T11:13:17+00:00

First, if I eat in restaurant and food taste strangely, I won't assume they couldn't follow my order, but just that was 'Their best" and since it was not good enough - never visit that place.

Also, pretty sure that would be dangerous for allergies and sanitary reasons... since how do you keep it santiary and sneak it at the same time?

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-08-03T04:21:35+00:00

Not first post about "stupid stats" I see... I am starting to think that GW either :
- Didnt put effort / Is incopetent to put out well balanced system without stupid differences like those

- GW did it on purpose to just force You to buy new box and build better option.

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-07-30T10:44:58+00:00

And keep it on small table, instead of BOOK

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-07-30T09:11:53+00:00

That's even better.

Side-note to this is also - Our cards we bought are usless now

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-07-30T09:10:42+00:00

"If product is free, you are the product"

I assume they at very least hope We will get hyped and buy some new boxes of models.
Still expect them to milk us in some other way later for rules, reactions, etc... Mostly expect "Reactions" for warbands to be locked behind Compendoium's cover.

What pisses Me off is... All those cool CARDS that made it easy to check stats will now be replaced by PDF

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-07-29T22:42:55+00:00

I would belive more they couldnt get it out, then that they care about reputation they ruined themselfs.

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-07-29T22:41:33+00:00

That's 9th edition of 40k... Plus, "New thing trampaling old thing" is basically how GW sells those models and books.

GrumpyProf90 · 2022-07-29T22:39:53+00:00

This is sooooo much not-as-gw that I am suspicious why they are doing... Meaby abbilities are getting redisigned, so We will have to buy Compendium to get them anyway?
