Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
@zeekthefreak
, these guys are fun to play an army of in tournaments. Just don't let DW8000 kill all of them in one turn.

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
TREX is right, they are super fun to play in a tournament, and sometimes your opponents will be totally unprepared for that level of an offensive assault, especially if you have 5+ squads.
Sometimes though, just sometimes, TREX decides to bring the exact counter to your army with not just Deathwalker 8000 but also Major Q9 in the same army. And if that just happens to be the case, then no matter how many attacks you get on them, and even if you get lucky and Q9 blanks his one-die attacks on you 13 times in a row, your attacks just bounce off and you just play a game of "How many Vipers can TREX kill in one turn?" I believe his record was 7 or 8 with DW8K, and he only had to stop because there were no more targets within range, not because he blanked. Totally recommend Vipers, though. If only for the meme plays. They've actually had a pretty strong showing at a couple of our Monthlies here. Monthly Utah Tournaments in SLC!!

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
At the last monthly here in Utah, I had 3 squad of these guys with the Venoc Warlord. With just 1 of them left, I frenzied 7 times in a row, blanking on 4 of the attacks, and then ending it by rolling all skulls to one shot a 4 life 180 point Omegacron who blanked his defense dice.

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
One individual Viper Frenzying for 8 turns, that's beautiful. The last round in Season 27 (before I was out) I frenzied twice on my last (and second) turn of the game and took out a full-life Sujoah and a full-life Quahon.

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
I just got my first Vipers from eBay (along with the EOV and Armocs, already had the warlord) and they did not disappoint. The very first game I played with them, I must have gotten at least 6 or 7 frenzies. The EOV got several as well. I have a new squad to add to my top ten, maybe even top five. I would also like to give credit to the author(s) of the Strategy articles for the Venocs and EOVs. You helped me play a good fist game with with Vipers!

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
I've got a newfound appreciation for the Vipers
Really enjoyed the 500 point army of: Q10 Isamu Venoc warlord Venoc vipers x3 Roman Legionaries x2 In a draft format its got enough cheap stuff to stretch it out and not fully let your opponent know what plan you're going in on and is well rounded. Its got a special attack/ranged to deal with units that its essential against. Isamu to be eternally way too good for his points vs. Jandar armies. Venocs as assassins/cruise missiles, and Romans being great bang for their buck with good staying power to clean up the game. |

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
Scene from 2 Years ago:
Me: "Well, ya got 1 squad of vipers left, man...feel free to concede, my bro...I outnumber you by a lot." *15 minutes later* Me: *looks around at all my warrior's corpses strewn all over the battlefield from 5 frenzy rolls in a row*... My Buddy: Moral of the story: Do NOT underestimate these suckers...there's a reason they weren't given any defense. "Our mother has been absent ever since we founded Rome; but there's gonna be a party when the wolf comes home." |

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
Quick question, if you successful roll for frenzy, can you take another turn with different vipers or must it be the same three you took a turn with?

Re: The Book of Venoc Vipers
It is a new turn; any vipers you control.
