Re: Scytale's customs - Catalans highlighted (10/10/16)

It is a simple, elegant solution, but note that it weakens the Teeth a little. It removes this combo:

Mohican turn --War Cry--> Brave Arrow turn --Hunting Party--> move Teeth

The C3V can't worry about everyone's custom units and needs to design things based on established canon. I can appreciate that. It's nice that the SoV exists to help particularly special designs find their way into canon and not be treaded on by future C3V designs. Scytale has so many great designs here, it would be nice to see that happen to more of them. (Make it happen @Scytale !)

Of course the Zulu's wouldn't be considered since they aren't prepainted (or even preassembled), but finding a "fix" for them through a trivial adjustment is A-OK for my collection.

I completely overlooked War Cry. Not sure how that happened. You're right, it does break that combo. In fact, with the existence of that combo, perhaps this combo is pretty equivalent anyway:

Zulu Warrior turn --Zulu Strategic Bonding--> Brave Arrow turn --Hunting Party--> move

Maybe I should really just look at adjusting Sizwe's Lead the Charge then.

I'll keep thinking on this more. Thanks guys.

They were an offering from Auggies Games a few years back, before there was a Dungeon Crawler line if memory serves. The Wildfire Embers were actually a creation for a contest run here by Auggies to make a Heroscape card for them. (I took 2nd.)

Looking at Auggies site, I don't see them available anymore, or even listed.

NWHC recently released a design that uses some fire elemental figures that would be great for the embers.

Re: Scytale's customs - Army of the Dead highlighted (4/17/1

When it comes to customs I think my rule of thumb will always be to hold classic scape and C3V above all else and just stop playing with any additional customs that conflict in a very unthematic or broken way.

That being said the cards I've looked at are great and a lot of them would be plug and play or serve as a great foundation for another custom. Its unfortunate theres re use of models used for C3V but with so many customs released over such a time frame what can ya do.

Though even though I agree its madness to try and fix the customs to work with C3V, have you considered finding alternate figures for the units sharing a figure with the C3V releases?

Well, there aren't too many of them. The Army of the Dead, the 28th UEF Infantry, and Feris might be the only ones. None are so iconic that replacement figures would be unacceptable.

Re: Scytale's customs - Vydar kyrie highlighted (7/17/17)

Tried out Vasniss tonight, really felt natural, strong, but fair. Pretty much the best criteria to meet when it comes to customs. Like how it added some more thought to order marker placement and positioning in the drow army, and that it expanded on the "kill your own stuff" theme of the drow in more powerful ways than Pelloth.

Thanks for playing her and thanks for the report! A cheerleader for the Drow is a tricky thing to get right. Pelloth sets a precedent for not-very-niceness, and a simply boosting aura just wouldn't fit with that. Lolth's Deception was my way of making a useful but nasty boost.

Re: Scytale's customs - Vydar kyrie highlighted (7/17/17)

I bought a bunch of your customs to try out. I'll definitely be dropping by some more reports. Pretty pumped to try the troglodytes as well. Out of curiosity do you have any favorite of your customs currently in terms of feeling "right" and fun.

Uh... well... that's sort of like trying to pick a favorite child. I put lots of time and effort into each one. While I can't say they're all my favorites, there are lots that are.

The Corsairs are my greatest accomplishment. The Yellow Ooze is up there too, as a design that plays amazing. I really enjoy playing the Army of the Dead, as every game with them feels like it's on a razor's edge.
