Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
I just did a write up of our President's Day Playtest session on our group thread linked below in my signature line. Check it out. Both customs played very well! Reika fought hard; her double distance attacks were very powerful, although she didn't get to Go For The Throat often. And Ravenwolf took down Nilfheim all by himself in two turns!

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
Well met! chas wrote a fine, full description of Monday's games featuring the above customs. They played pretty much as expected, in spite of less than optimum play on our parts. We all liked them and how they played, and I will submit them to the Pre-SoV Workshop soonest. |

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
I dont think the initial idea for either unit is bad. Quite selfishly I want to use Reika's mini for something else lol.
Roman's are a tough one to have semi-bonding into with high range. Me Burq Sa is quite fantastic with them for a reason. Would spitball ideas with you if need be. |

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
Oh, Ravenwolf died alright. But only after being swarmed by Knights of Weston after first killing Nilfheim in two turns by himself and being wounded by the dragon! I was busy fighting on another front, and left him hanging out by himself too long.

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
A 115 point figure that is a bonding target for Romans killing Nilf (185/245 in Delta!) in 2 turns by himself should be a sign that it's way too strong. Nilf isn't exactly squishy.

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
Out of curiosity, since I didnt pay attention to any posted playtests previously. Was Ravenwolf played in a competitive list suited for him?
For instance... Marro Warriors Me-Burq-Sa Raelin the Kyrie Warrior (RoTV) Roman Legionnaires x4 Ravenwolf 115 495 Points, 23 Figures, 24 Hexes Settings: VC, Standard Points Or not as competitive but still synergistic off the top of my head: Arthur of Sherwood Millerson Nottingham Brigand Ravenwolf 500 Points, 9 Figures, 9 Hexes Settings: VC, Standard Points He's a bit juiced for what you can put him in. |

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
Ravenwolf had incredible die luck against Nilfheim. He was playtested in and against armies designed by Kolakoski. The Roman army was very similar to the one you list. You can see the details in my signature thread below.

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
To clarify, Ravenwolf was tested in a Romans/Me-Burq-Sa/Marcus army, though without Raelin (RoTV). Him killing Nilfheim was the result of Ravenwolf rolling 4 out of 5 skulls on a ranged attack and Nilfheim whiffing; it's something that could be replicated with Kaemon Awa on an incredibly bad string of dice. Ravenwolf didn't even get the opportunity to use any of the actual abilities listed on the left side of his card for that one.

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
Well met! In response to various comments, both heroes nerfed and modified: Human Female Barbarian Pathfinder Icons of the Realms RIEKA THE WOLF General: Aquilla Human, Unique Hero, Rogue, Ferocious, Medium 5 Life 5, Move 5, Range 4, Attack 3, Defense 3 DOUBLE ASSAULT When Rieka the Wolf attacks an adjacent figure or destructible object, she may attack one additional time. GOING FOR THE THROAT If Rieka the Wolf wounds an adjacent opponent's figure with her first attack, and attacks that figure again, that figure rolls 2 fewer defense dice. POINTS: 105 As Cornered is unlikely to happen, I dropped it, as suggested. Otherwise, nerfed her to avoid humiliating Kaemon Awa. Valeros, Human Fighter Pathfinder's Iconic Heroes Evolved RAVENWOLF General: Einar Human, Unique Hero, Rogue, Disciplined, Medium 5 Life 5, Move 5, Range 7, Attack 3, Defense 3 DISGRACED WARLORD If there is at least 1 Warlord in your army and 1 is destroyed, Ravenwolf becomes a Warlord, in addition to his current Class. BASH AND SLASH If Ravenwolf attacks an adjacent figure he was not adjacent to at the start of his turn, add 1 to his attack dice and he may attack that figure 1 additional time. ONE SHIELD DEFENSE When rolling defense dice, if Ravenwolf rolls at least one shield, the most wounds Ravenwolf can take from this attack is one. POINTS: 105 Similarly, for the same reason, nerfed Ravenwolf. The sculpt still, in my opinion, implies a real bow, and a Range of 7. Bash and Slash reasonably nerfed. I implied earlier that Ravenwolf might have Dwarven blood, given his sculpt's appearance, so One Shield Defense also seems reasonable. Last edited by kolakoski; February 20th, 2024 at 07:31 PM. |

Re: Kolakoski’s Pre-SoV Custom Corner
Well met! Received quite a bit of conflicting advice. For now . . . Human Female Barbarian Pathfinder Icons of the Realms RIEKA THE WOLF General: Aquilla Human, Unique Hero, Fighter, Ferocious, Medium 5 Life 5, Move 5, Range 4, Attack 3, Defense 3 GOING FOR THE THROAT When Rieka the Wolf attacks an adjacent figure, the defending figure rolls one less defense die. If Rieka the Wolf inflicts a wound, add 5 to the roll for Battle Frenzy. BATTLE FRENZY After attacking with Rieka the Wolf, roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 16 or higher, you may attack again with Rieka the Wolf. CORNERED If Rieka the Wolf is the last remaining figure in your army, add 1 to her Attack and Defense. POINTS: 115 Valeros, Human Fighter Pathfinder's Iconic Heroes Evolved RAVENWOLF General: Einar Human, Unique Hero, Rogue, Disciplined, Medium 5 Life 5, Move 5, Range 5, Attack 3, Defense 3 DISGRACED WARLORD If there is at least 1 Warlord in your army and 1 is destroyed, Ravenwolf becomes a Warlord, in addition to his current Class. GOING FOR THE THROAT When Ravenwolf attacks an adjacent figure, the defending figure rolls one less defense die. If Ravenwolf inflicts a wound, add 5 to the roll for Battle Frenzy. BATTLE FRENZY After attacking with Ravenwolf, roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 16 or higher, you may attack again with Ravenwolf. ONE SHIELD DEFENSE When rolling defense dice, if Ravenwolf rolls at least one shield, the most wounds Ravenwolf can take from this attack is one.
