Re: The Book of Mika Connour
As potent as the Shadow Dance is, she's still a situational unit (albeit a good one). She only has 2 shadow tiles to place and she can only place them where she's been. On a dungeon map with lots of extra shadow she'd be a game-changer but on any other map the points are probably better spent elsewhere.

Re: The Book of Mika Connour
Getting ready for NHSD, My son and I have been play-testing armies. Our tourney is faction wars (all from one general).
I fielded Vydar: Mika 110 Krav Maga 100 Agent Skahen 120 Iron Golem 100 Black Wyrmling x2 60 Oto 10 500 against his Jandar: Sgt Drake (RotV) 110 Thormgrin 80 Finn 80 Raelin (RotV) 80 4th Mass x2 140 490 She took out his Sgt. Drake in one roll w/ Ambush (7 skulls vs. whiff!). Granted that won't happen very often but it was awesome!!! Take that Thorian Speed! Do. Or do not. There is no I don't wanna. |

Re: The Book of Mika Connour
As someone who hasn't gotten the Battle for the Underdark master set yet, I was wondering, is she packaged with two shadow tiles, or is she just an expensive vanilla human in situations like mine?

Re: The Book of Mika Connour
The hero pack she comes in is packaged with two shadow tiles.

Re: The Book of Mika Connour
You can always order a couple of cheap swamp water tiles and Sharpie them black if you don't get Shadow tiles with her. But buying the Hero pack should come with 2 tiles.

Re: The Book of Mika Connour
Or simply just order 2 shadow tiles instead.

Tech note: the link to this thread from the index links to the second post here for some reason. Not a big issue, just thought I'd mention it.

Re: The Book of Mika Connour
Just found an error, the "What's Your Army Idea?" link has an extra h in the URL hhttp instead of http.
Also, how is character grading determined? I find Mika Connour to be a good unit, but there is probably a very good reason, beyond being easy to lock down, that she's a C+. Personally, I'd make her a B at least... Last edited by Myth26; December 4th, 2020 at 09:57 PM. Reason: Forgot to include the reason given |

Fixed.
She's a single attacking figure. She's not significantly better at that nor is she much more survivable than others in her skill set. She'd probably be B at like 80-90 points or something. ~Dysole, figuring she'll probably find a use for her at some point My Twitch Channel where I play Scape and other things My YouTube Channel where the games get uploaded later Dysole's Draft Rankings Map Thread (Not responsible for psychic damage) Customs Battle Reports This sentence is seven words long. This sentence is not seven words long. |

Re: The Book of Mika Connour
What it really comes down to is that there is a huge advantage to multiple attacks per Order Marker. She grants 1 attack. She can hit with an attack of 7+ dice, or you can have 4 4th Mass throw 8 minimum, and usually 12-16 dice in total.
She also requires a bit of setup to be at her most effective, or maps that have a reasonable amount of shadow spaces already present. On a map with a lot of shadow, she could easily a B- for her unpredictability, but otherwise, she's lucky that she is a C+ figure. She can help facilitate other heroes or squads by placing shadow in key areas, but then you're spending 110 points of your army on someone that gives marginal support. When you see a letter grade, you can go almost a full letter grade up for figures placed in ideal situations, but that isn't practical. Be polite: Don't put politics or religion in your signature! |
