Re: The Book of Alien Queen - public playtesting
I don't like that cause she's better than a Drone so the default would be to take a turn with her and a Drone every time.

The Alien Drones have never felt strong enough, no - they're nowhere near... vicious enough. Aliens are scary bastards. Is it worth updating the Drones' attack to 5 while we're here? I don't want such an iconic monster to continue gathering dust. Honestly, much as I and my family love the Aliens, that's part of the reason I've struggled to work up any enthusiasm for this design - I just didn't see it going well with those guys in place. I probably should have thought to say earlier, but it just didn't occur to me. |

Re: The Book of Alien Queen - public playtesting
If dropping 'other' isn't loved, then something else needs to be done to boost the faction up some. I'm not seeing any reason to buy that figure and play this army right now.
It hasn't been 24 hours so I'm casting a Hold vote. |

Re: The Book of Alien Queen - public playtesting
Seems like the initial went pretty well after the change, with one win and one loss. Why the concern?

Re: The Book of Alien Queen - public playtesting
YK already said why - the win was a close one while the other army was playing badly, and the loss was significant.
Strongly advocating in favour of a bump to 5 attack for the Alien Drones - mechanically and thematically, those guys need to hit harder. |

We could make a small change:

Re: The Book of Alien Queen - public playtesting
Votes don't actually auto-pass after 5 yea votes are collected, they pass after 24 hours if no one has cast a nay or hold vote. Posting it up in the play testing thread less than 8 hours after a vote is called was premature and happens way too often around here. People work 8 hour days, travel to and from work, have kids to deal with, etc. and this is shared hobby project. It's why each stage has a minimum 24 hour period, so everyone who wants to participate has a chance to do so without being excluded.

Re: The Book of Alien Queen - public playtesting
I'd still prefer tweaking the initial card rather than a clear 'this is to fix the unit' change here. That way, a lone Alien suddenly becomes a threat again, which they should be - a lone, stalking alien is as iconic as a swarm of them.
Failing that, though, this change certainly makes the faction work better. |

Re: The Book of Alien Queen - public playtesting
That's a solution I'm happy to see tried out. Just wanted to see something tried to insure this army becomes competitive. Thanks! I rescind my Hold vote.
