Glyphs.

You can use Swarming Vermin to disengage before using Pounce, but the wolf cannot be engaged when it Pounces (since you must attack figures you're engaged with and you cannot Pounce adjacent figures). I think that makes Swarming Vermin a little trickier to use, though it certainly makes the wolf's opponent work harder on placement.

Well met!

Looks awful easy to me!

Just ran a test of some of the new figures against myself:

Mok 220
4x Axegrinders 500

vs.

Quahon 190
Morgoloth 230
2x Wolves of Badru

I was expecting Quahon and Mok to be the stars of the battle, but do you know who ended up being the MVP?

The Wolves of Badru. They pounced the crap out of the Axegrinders, slinking past Mok while Morgoloth finished off the mounted behemoth. Having a really solid hero to bond with along with the tactical advantage of disengage really puts them over the top.

They're a B- instead of a C+! They've broken free of the unusable tier! Yay! I'm going to be packing these guys a lot more.

Props to the C3V team for bringing this janky squad back into the drafting pool. Is there no unit you guys cannot fix?!

Glad to hear Sir Denrick.

We do not go out of our way to fix units, but if it is a by-product...that is a bonus.

I think there was a mistake in the OP. It says that Swarming vermin benefits the Death Reavers, however the Death Reavers already have disengage, so unless I've missed something the Death Reavers do not benefit at all from Morgoloth. I may be wrong, but I just thought I'd give you a heads up.

Technically the OP is correct, but most of the time it is a mute point.

But if by chance there is a special power or glyph that can negate the Deathreavers Disengage; Morgoloth would be able to re-give them that ability with his Swarming Vermin ability.

Okay, that makes sense.

It's just really awesome thinking that I paid X amount of money for Morgoloth, but for that amount of money I'm dusting off my otherwise useless 4 squads of Wolves of Badru. So in a way I'm really making money by buying C3V stuff.

Yeah- that's what I'll tell my fiance. Good thinking.

Hello,

Does a bio will be made for Morgoloth or there's nothing in preparation?
I'd like to know because I'm the Guardian of the French's Book of (so, making the updates) and it could be nice to know if I've to keep an eye on this book or not.

[ZBeeblebrox]

Bios are working their way through the process...stay tuned.

Wow. Can we call our Book-thread-starters "Guardians of the Books"?
