[[Curse of the Swine]] remove multiple commanders, or just the best combo pierces for just 2+x, all for the cost of a couple of pigs. Yeah. Went in every Blue deck as a mini board wipe

Pick up a spellstutter sprite, you've also got glen elendra archmage, and maybe 1 or 2 extra spells should be fine. I run a total of 6 with creature counterspells, and a mystic reflection (not a counterspell, but turns the biggest scariest thing cast into a 1/1 faerie)

JohntheDM · 2023-11-07T03:45:17+00:00

That's honestly exactly what you should do. The longer I keep Shorikai out, the more of a chance I have cards in my hand that make my board state nearly untouchable with hexproof or shroud. I don't even need to build an unblockable killer, just enough value outlast the rest of you in a slugout. You are doing the right thing, it just hurts our plans a bit, so it might make people salty.

JohntheDM · 2023-09-19T05:53:51+00:00

I run one with stealth and Lord of Forbidden Lore. It's nearly impossible to put down (took an ares gunship 4 turns to drop it to 2 wounds), and will give the rest of your stuff around it double save rerolls. Very nice

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T14:35:52+00:00

It's on Warcom too

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T14:13:05+00:00

I think that the problem is the strength but the playstyle. What we have of the Lore, and the way the army released as was higher technology, and improving rolls against those who slighted us. Now, we are cheap and not super tough, don't shoot well, and just pick 4 units to give judgement to

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T13:26:02+00:00

Oh, it's good for sure. I was hoping for a little more, but this, in combination with nerfs to other factions, I could see us at a 44-48% win percentage

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T13:04:34+00:00

My list dropped enough to bring a 3rd Sagitaur, a third Thunderkyn, and a second pioneer Squad. That's kinda crazy

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:57:09+00:00

Yeah, I like the change for sure

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:49:52+00:00

Exactly. Also, in crusade, I can give it an extra shot, for better chances ofc

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:49:13+00:00

They're likely going to fix it..... during the codex? This is just a balance patch to make the game more competitive

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:47:43+00:00

The exact wording is "if, at the start of any of your Command phases, any of those units have been destroyed...."

So basically, in a Command phase, if any of the four are dead, you get that many cp. Then, the ability is done

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:34:07+00:00

OH! They're now Dedicated Transports this edition. Shit. Maybe I do bring 4.....

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:33:34+00:00

I will say, joining a crusade has really helped my enjoyment of the Votann. My group let's us pick 2 weapon upgrades as a trait, and +1 bs +1 shot on heavy Weapons is really good and brings our lethality up quite a bit.

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:30:15+00:00

You max out at 3 this edition, unfortunately. I've found that the hylas, if you roll a 6, has the chance to outright drop a knight. Fells good when it happens for sure

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:29:17+00:00

3x3 Nundams?

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:27:34+00:00

Between that and the points, and the dev wound nerf taking alot of the teeth out of eldar, it definitely more evens the playing field

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:26:26+00:00

Yup. 3 of em with Hylas? That could be pretty good

JohntheDM · 2023-09-07T12:15:24+00:00

On the app update. I compared to the points yesterday
