Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Interesting. The repaint looks awesome.

Do I understand correctly that each one can attack 3 times, without reference to attacks by any other? Or does the squad as a whole get 3 attacks, with a...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

I like this design much, much more for this mini. It feels thematic. Kudos.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

It is a problem you can fix with the name. Even “Totem of the Martyr.”

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

The issue I’m seeing is that the *item* is delivering the protection but the *hero* is giving wounds to trigger it. That doesn’t sound like a protective totem to me. That sounds like a sacrifice of...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

It was pointed out that the carried item might be the “totem,” but that is not consistent with the mechanic of her taking the damage. As I saw it. Not that I actually vote anymore.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

I don’t accept that a community’s willingness to use a freighted word in some clever or knowing way makes it fair game for everybody.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

As I just posted elsewhere, the new minis will not be raw gray. They will be in a color scheme associated with their generals.

We were only just a few minutes ago given permission to say so but...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

I thought it was an intriguing nominee and a clever approach to problems that other green wymrling designs have had, but I do not think that BBF's and dysole's votes are unreasonable.

Oh well....

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

I would go so far as to say that designers deserve credit and the SoV might wish to refuse to consider nominations that don’t credit the people who put in the work. Kudos to vegie for calling it out.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

"United Fanscape" (also Valhalla Customs or VC) refers to the combined C3V and SoV projects, who work in tandem. Units from either group have to be approved by a vote that includes all C3V and SoV...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

"Drow Ambush" improves the unit in two ways. First, it addresses the concern that "Drow Assassinate" is just not a good name. No matter the mechanics, the name feels pasted on and clumsy. What is a...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

I had similar thoughts as to Assassinate's utility, but I suspect the power's +2 Attack boost will tempt players to use it for attacking most of the time. Won't really know without playtesting,...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

I wonder how often, during playtesting, "Drow Assassinate" was used for some purpose other than attacking a high value target. I imagine that power is very helpful for repositioning, grabbing glyphs,...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

The good Captain was speaking only for himself, of course. As I've said many, many times, we are individual voters, with individual tastes, preferences, and aesthetics.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Well I said what I had to say. You can offer your workshopping feedback somewhere else. But neither of us speaks for the goals of the larger project. Just our own preferences. ;)

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

"Jackie Chan Style"? No?

Ok. Melee Combat Specialist? Like I said, I think "Close Quarters" evokes a modern combat style. But "melee," as opposed to "range," is relatively timeless. Militia with...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Why isn't Hand to Hand Expert reusable? "Close Quarters" sounds distinctly modern, to me. "Hand to Hand" feels more timeless.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

I *really* like the Bending Reed power. Strongly thematic.

"Close Quarters Combat Expert" is a clunky name. It sounds like a power we might give John Wick: someone who *can* fight at range, but is...

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Scy, that was precisely the theme point that MS and I developed together. Wilder and bigger. A different subspecies just like there are different kinds of bears and different kinds of horses.
