Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

[dok]

Updated to be "once per turn, after attacking...":

[Scytale]

With that, I flipflop back to .

Note that I reserve the right to vote Nay in judging if I feel the figure doesn't look like a marro. I want to have the figure in hand before I make that call; for now I'll trust the submitter's description.

If he moved more than 4 spaces, can he use Leaping Assault after destroying an opponent's figure?

I find this discussion fascinating, because I think he looks very Marro. He is toothy, like the Gnids, and sinewy, like all of them. The coloring looks right but for the bluish discoloration at his shoulders, which (again, to my eyes) does not detract at all from his overall Marro-ness.


Just the of an outsider. Carry on, gentlemen.

I am pleased to present the final version of the Red Ants of Aunstrom.

The PDF will be available shortly.

Congratulations Scytale.

@DanieLoche are you interested in making the Book of Asterios? If not, I'll put it together in a few days.

[Dysole]

I'd like to submit my custom Executioner 616.



Homeworld of Isadora. The figure is contained in the same set as DCM3 and J15 so I'm uncertain about its current availability but plenty of Scapers should have the figure already. (I have also been told there are no present designs for this unit in C3V so that shouldn't be a concern)

He synergizes well with a lot of different soulborgs. He bonds with both Hops and Zettian Infantry without making either a problem. He also bonds with DCM3 and likes Marked for Destruction with Deadly Strike.

I've tested pretty extensively against melee armies including Shieldsmiths, MacDirks, Romans, and Knights and he never blew a game out of the water even when I was using a much more potent version of Remote Detonation. Rats are the obvious kaboom choice but you can get some potency out of Hops or Stalkers but you need to be a bit more judicious while ZIs kind of fit somewhere in the middle (I didn't test him with glads or blasts but I could also see that working out surprisingly well). The short range, blowing up the screen, and the fact that 6 defense 3 life goes by a lot quicker than you think help rein Executioner in.

He has the bonus to huge soulborgs despite there not being any yet because it felt thematic, didn't take up too much space, and allows for future design in that area. I'd like to have it but if it's a sticking point for a judge I am willing to remove it.

Here goes. Thanks to the judges and everyone who helped with testing and tweaking this unit. I'm really happy that this crazy idea turned into a unit I really like.

~Dysole, first SoV submission

Good idea.

I'm a little busy these days, but I have the time to do it tomorrow !

[Scytale]

I can't think of any issues with the power set, and it's nice to use another figure from that package. (Note: this one gets a pass on availability, as it's from a set that C3V announced a long time ago.) Lots of synergies, given what Fanscape has done for Utgar and/or melee Soulborgs. Looks interesting.

What homeworld is it from? Technically that should be part of the submission.

Assuming it's from Alpha Prime or Isadora, to review Executioner 616.

You have my blessing to do so.

Remember, friends, to let me know before you create a book, because I am the bookkeeper. And I probably won't say "no," but I might. And I have in the past, when someone else had already signed up to do it (or something similar).

So the intent of Remote Detonation is the Soulborg is still destroyed on a roll of 1-12(or what have you after modifications) right?
