Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
Gents, Sertorius and I would like to nominate another of our units.
Khophawet, younger brother of Khosumet and battle leader of the Anubians. He doesn't replace his older sibling; he supplements him. His Relentless Assault Aura inspires his wolves, while his Deferred Fury evens out their luck a bit: if they roll poorly for their Unleashed Fury, then Khophawet howls in to pick up their slack.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
KHOPHAWET
Wow! What a fantastic sculpt! Relentless Assault sounds like it could be pretty darn powerful, but I'm willing to give it a try. to Review. I've hatched an evil plan to finally get some play-testing moving on my part. Going to get a couple maps set-up on our 3-season room now that the weather is turning a bit (not that it got all that cold this year), instead of our cold and dank basement. "Hey look, there's Scape set-up on the porch, and it's 20 minutes til dinner time. Hmmmm... what shall we do to pass the time?" -insert signature here- Last edited by nyys; March 12th, 2012 at 05:05 PM. |

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
It's close enough that I have to wonder whether the same artist was involved.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
Wondering if there is a plan to the Tyrian card in pdf? I tried resizing it with no luck yet, so I will continue those efforts if it isn't going to be put into a more printer friendly pdf. If not, any suggestions on how to resize it effectively.

Khophawet by typhon and sertorious:
"Deferred fury" is a dumb name for that power. Otherwise I agree with my fellow judges about the potential here. to review. |

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
Gents, thanks for your willingness to give Khophawet a try. (Except for YOU, D_S. )
That said.... We've just been alerted that an upcoming C3V unit may be both Relentless and ranged. That could be a problem. As it is now, Khophy's Relentless Assault Aura is kept in control by the fact that every unit able to benefit from it is purely melee. (That and the fact that, unlike Taelord, he can't fly.) But combine it with a ranged Relentless unit, and.... I imagine things could get very nasty very quick. Last thing we want is a ranged Khophawet pod. (I know Khosumet also benefits Relentless units.... but he's squishier; and requires adjacency for the bonus.) So if you gents think it advisable, Sertorius and I will temporarily remove Khophawet from consideration while we figure out how to reword him to avoid unanticipated synergy with future units. While we're at it, no reason we couldn't change ability names too. Anybody have a better name for "Deferred Fury"? We thought it captured the ability well, but clearly it's not <ahem> sexy enough for some. Maybe "Defurred Fury"? No seriously, any suggestions?

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
@ Dad Scaper, qt.bangerang --
Any chance you two could vote on Priscus this month? One is all he needs to join the ranks, and it would be nice to have a finalized card to go with C3V Wave 15... |

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
Thanks, UtahScott. The continued interest of guys like yourself is good to hear.
I've tested him some and my feelings so far are very positive, but I'd like to play him a bit more before I vote. Last edited by Dad_Scaper; March 12th, 2012 at 10:03 PM. Reason: "Deferred fury" makes perfect sense mechanically, but thematically and semantically it's dumb. Sounds like an oxymoron. |

Yeah I have been watching him too. Already got my figure and everything. Just waiting for the okay to let him out of the barracks.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
Khophawet again, with his Relentless Assault Aura reworded to forestall any problems with future ranged Relentless units.
(Also changed name of his Deferred Fury to something a tad shmexier.) For completeness I cut-and-paste the following from the original submission. Khophawet, younger brother of Khosumet and battle leader of the Anubians. He doesn't replace his older sibling; he supplements him. His Relentless Assault Aura inspires his wolves, while his Fury of Anubis evens out their luck a bit: if they roll poorly for their Unleashed Fury, then Khophawet howls in to pick up their slack.
