They could be decent as cleanup I guess, with that auto shield, but really at least 3 squads are needed to be effective. Backed by Raelin, these guys are very tough to take down.

Don't forget that a single squad can serve a purpose as well! Deployed early (though it might well cost you in positioning for the later game) a single squad of WFS can effectively hold a key position -especially a glyph - against many units. Back them with MDG in a soldier army, and they can get where you need them relatively quickly.

WORST. PALADIN. EVER.

You could also do what I do and take extra squads and sub all the figures you don't have in with order markers or other unused squads

Re: The Book of Warforged Soldiers

Q: Can my first Warforged move a figure with Tactical Switch and then a second Warforged move a different figure with Switch? Is the limit of one per unit or per army?
A: ???

Each attacking Warforged may switch.

Wonderful, each may switch but not each with the same defending figure.

I can't believe I've never seen this question come up! The last sentence says "An opponent's figure may be moved by Tactical Switch only once per turn" which is basically as unclear as you can get. As far as I know, everybody plays as if the wording was more like "You may not use Tactical Switch to move a figure that has already been moved by Tactical Switch this turn."

Re: The Book of Warforged Soldiers

Huh, I see the confusion now. Yeah, the ruling is that it’s once per attacking Warforged, and you can’t switch the same specific figure more than once per turn. Nice find!

Re: The Book of Warforged Soldiers

And that’s why I didn’t think they were as good as my fellow casters thought, I thought you could only do tactical switch once per turn. But they’re a lot better when every warforged you activate has tactical switch potential.

Re: The Book of Warforged Soldiers

Yeah I've used these guys early on in tourneys they handle nice on certain maps because speed doesn't matter and you really want the opponent to take height before you. I don't recall the map but I think I was 4 tiles lower in water and I attacked a figure with 4 height. So it allows you to switch the figure and move him but then I didn't need to attack because I was no longer engaged. That clause of the power doesn't come up very often.

Keep doing what you're doing, but do it better. ~Self
