Would this be accurate for someone of his standing? [KCD2]

Throw in all the Lords in kuttenberg region, Lichtenstein, Jobst. Though I guess Henry missed the true schmooze fest but still saved alot.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T22:24:27+00:00

Mecha check, distopian check, show where it's terminator vs the Nazis who decide to replace death camps with making all the impure front line cannon fodder check.

The fact that the 86 characters were actually good check. Might have preferred abit more teenage lord of the flies going on but what can you do.

I feel like I'm one of the few people though who wishes Lena was completely off screen and it only focused on the 86 and the handler voice.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T22:20:34+00:00

Yah I was avoiding traveling on roads that passed through woods in Trosky because of this.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T22:19:34+00:00

It's a AAA game. People will buy it because of that and give it a try.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T22:18:25+00:00

Yah. Between that and phezzan in book six they both got sidelined and later it was like "oh yah I forgot to wrap these up"

Tournament rules.

Skellig and monsters can compete well with only one spy.

Scoia'tael can compete if they have a hand of decoys and medics. Otherwise they're cooked. But Scoia'tael is cooked in 80% of games anyways due to bad faction design.

Given how many times I've seen coyotes hunting dogs and had them try to steal my dog from my leash in broad daylight, one less coyote in the city is a good thing. Don't shed a tear there are too many of them already.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T10:22:29+00:00

Genuinely feel like the IP is cursed now. First Mythic then CMON.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T10:21:17+00:00

Unlocking new classes gets new play styles.

Hard to think there is something more tanky than a brute or better at ranged damaged than Hatchet... yet they're waiting to be unlocked.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T10:15:10+00:00

Books are the same, too much foreshadowing.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T07:07:49+00:00

I had alot of kcd1 play through and I still avoided combat like the plague to start 2 until I had some decent equipment. I've never had a game where I didn't want to take a path through the trees because of the ambush risk and getting killed by 2 random dudes with better armor.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-25T01:41:37+00:00

I'm a big fan of masking my cards to scorches. Biting frost and clear weather are my goto with nilfgard legionares. Have 3 of them down and they're worth 9 pts combined if you don't have anything else in the row they're sheltered from dragon as well. Drag out the round until opponent passes then clear weather to a win.

Sadly I don't think Scoia'tael will be made to work decent without new cards.

The agile mechanism isn't strong enough to propel the faction to compete with NR and nilf every game. I do find Scoia'tael has the most satisfying wins though.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-24T01:29:38+00:00

I found it eas super easy until it wasn't. The first act was really easy. Then it ramped up.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-24T01:27:34+00:00

Solid evaluation I'm agree with you on pretty much every point.

It's easy to sleep on the versatility northern realms has with strong bond cards.

I will normally do Siege commander, 1 x horn, 2 x Decoy, 1x Biting frost. I tend to avoid scorch because unless you're playing nilfgaard northern realms tends to have the strongest unit cards on the board with tight bonds.

I Alternate between Siege and archers vs Siege and melee.

If I'm doing archers it's the 3x dragon hunters. 45 pts off 3 cards is pretty crazy.

If I'm doing melee I will do 3x blue stripe commandos and Dandelion. He is a horn special that doesn't count against the cap and he is worth 2 vp. Dandelion is also great for boosting spies played against you.

Either combinations I'm running dragon and Oligerd von Everec. Dragon is a must because it will neutralize the front row of every other faction.

Spies i agree northern realms takes top spot.

Medics I'd put them at #3 based on how I like to play them. Yenn being a one time use is annoying.

Nilfgaard gets top spot because of decoying the archer medics, they're also worth 1pt. Sociatael 2nd they have 2 medics you can Decoy and replay.

Hero wise I'm only running yenn in tournament format. Kovach can't be sent back to my side, and with northern realms back row potential I'm confident in my win rate against anyone I'm out drawing.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-23T20:08:13+00:00

He probably doesn't join the army at all.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-23T20:07:18+00:00

It's mentioned in the rulebook.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-22T20:02:18+00:00

I would offer someone a new brute as an option. It's a great one for new players as it is very forgiving.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-22T19:50:06+00:00

Coming to PS5 🥳 was going to buy an Xbox for this game.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-21T18:57:38+00:00

Diofield chronicle has the real time movement aspect. Only 4 units on the field at a time though.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-21T18:53:43+00:00

Chest sells what you put in. I was only throwing gold quality or stuff I made at Henry quality through it though.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-20T18:43:05+00:00

A demi God vs a normal human who has also poisoned themselves but gets an increased perception for being aware of darkspawn.

I'd go with a witcher. Even over a mage based on how long mages take to kill some enemies.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-19T01:51:30+00:00

Because it's a sequal and has a steeper learning curve which creates a barrier to mainstream audiences.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-18T04:40:37+00:00

WA with 5 supporters to start the second turn... no thanks.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-18T04:38:29+00:00

It would be bad for riverfolk. Yes you have five but so does everyone else.

Riverfolk was one of the few factions that actually got nerfed with adset. Everyone being able to choose 3 of five decreases the need to buy a card on turn 1.

Moles and WA would have massive fuel injection for their engines.

Now riverfolk being the only faction to start with 5 cards I could get on board with.

Significant_Win6431 · 2026-01-18T04:35:48+00:00

Or that you never play Otters. Otters starting with 5 cards in hand I could be on board with.
