Re: The Book of Othkurik the Black Dragon
I thought this guy looked really interesting the other day and I decided to build a 500 point team around him.
Deathreavers x 2 = 80 Marrden Hounds x 2 = 180 Othkurik = 140 Raelin (ROTV) = 80 Marcu Esenwien (filler) = 20 ------------------------------ 500 total This team has worked really well for me if I lead out with the rats tying up as many figures as possible. I then proceed with the hounds who work really well with the rats because their plague doesn't work on soulborgs and if the opposition is spreading out its pretty easy to find adjaceny to atleast 2 with the hounds due to their size. I also like to keep Raelin close enough to the rats/hounds to increase their defense to 6 and 7. I feel this allows me to breath acid on my own troops without the worry of losing them everytime. I feel like this is a very fun team to play. |

And didn't Swarm of the Marro rulebooklet say that flipping a 2 space figure's facing on its turn was a free action? |

If someone moves a figure, declares he wants to attack my guy, then says "oh wait, he can't really see him, but he can if I flip him," I'm not going to be a d-bag and say "Dude, you declared attack phase, no can do, hurr hurr." |

Re: The Book of Othkurik the Black Dragon
Just because you've moved your last space, doesn't mean your move "phase" is over. You still have time to flip again before you attack.

Re: The Book of Othkurik the Black Dragon
That's the way I play too, but it's still technically true. We know figures can block their own line of sight, such as Q9's shoulder pads etc. So if you look from Othkurik's target point, and something he wanted to hit was on the other side of his body, the argument could be made that his sculpt blocks his line of sight to anything over there.
Edit: Move doesn't end after you've moved your last space, but it does when you say "Now Q9 is going to attack...." I don't play that way, but a strict interpretation of the rules could lead some people to doing so.

Re: The Book of Othkurik the Black Dragon
As long as you don't start rolling attack dice, I'll let you flip first.

Re: The Book of Othkurik the Black Dragon
I'm at a loss of how to use this unit. 3 defence seems too fragile, and four attack is just above average. There are better figures for less points. His usage would come down to swamp based maps with shadow tiles scattered around only, in my mind. how are you supposed to play this unit?
