The Book of Cathar Spearmen

[greygnarl]

I don't like Marcus with these guys. A Range 2 pod is hard to set up and the OMs wasted on Marcus are just that, wasted.

I like
Cathar x4 300
Raelin 380
Krav 480
Marcu 500

Just use Marcus for the movement boost then.

Oh yeah, duh.

Marcus is not a bad pick with the Cathars. His usefulness will vary depending on the map and the opponent, but if there's a nice place to pod up within about a turn of your SZ then Marcus is extra-beneficial.

Well, thats Count Raymond and there are two reasons for that. From the comments I've seen about them being better with him, and that he is the only figure in the hero pack that fits in the blank. Your hints seem to be getting easier, ZB.

Has anyone used these guys with the Air Elementals? Seems like it'd be an interesting combination for a melee pod. It'd lose against pretty much everything, but still...

Cathar x3
Air Elementals x5
Kurrok

Would be fun to try.

That would be fun to try, I agree.

The Cathars are a lot of fun. They can crush most melee, but melee still has a chance much of the time depending on the dice and strategies used. Air Elementals would be a nice pairing for more anti-melee, but I'd imagine something like Phantom Knights or Beakface Sneaks would be a better help, for those pesky ranged units.

I can't share my favorite Cathar build yet.

Done, at least I think that's what you wanted.

Heh. Me neither. Why can't they have dailly realeases? That would be cool. Now we gotta wait 3 more weeks until the Count is revealed, along with his epic power that makes these guys better. Man I love play testing
