Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
Trophy Skulls feels way more like a negative power than a positive power; lose a whole round of attacks just for one extra attack die later? I guess that justifies his relatively cheap price, but I'm not sure how to feel about him considering he can just turn off randomly. How big of a negative was the power in your testing?

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
As an outsider, I saw that right away. It's right there in the name of the power and on the mini.

It is more annoying when he doesn't get that trophy skull early on, when you really want the higher attack dice later. It is a power that can be both a negative and a positive. On OM3 you are really hoping he kills a figure and gets the Trophy Marker. On OM1 you are hoping for the opposite. I feel like the negative is factored into his cost. His value when playing without bonding options can be difficult. Avoiding playing too many OMs on him, especially vs squads. If you are lucky enough to get him boosted to 7 attack dice, then he only will worry about killing because he is basically on Cloud 9 now. @Dad_Scaper Thanks!

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
The powers are lot of work just to get what Bloodlust gives you for free. It puts it into the same realm as Sir Dupuis' Tactical Disengagement for me, a really complex power that's hopelessly inferior to an already existing simple power. Not sure what the point is, just complexity for the sake of complexity.
EDIT- Also not sure if I dig having an Ogre that looks nothing like either of the two types of Ogre already in Heroscape, I don't think we really need a third variety of them.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
Thanks for the submission, Kinseth. There is an elegance to Uzog and a nice implementation of the theme. I think he might your strongest submission yet.
Unfortunately, I don't like powers that use markers as a general rule unless I feel like there is a big payoff for the added fiddliness inherent in markers. I just don't see the payoff on this card. And as Soundwarp brought up, it doesn't look like any of Heroscape's other Ogres. to review Uzog. If he passes on to review I will be happy to try him out. Playing with him just might change my mind.

I am going to remove Uzog from SOV for the time being. Thanks, respectfully.

I hope you can all forgive me if I am excited about this.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion
I am excited for him, and just in time for Season 18 of Online Scape! I have a feeling we will see him in several armies.

You forgot to do excitement gifs!
Because almost everything is better with a gif. "They are too numerous to fight. What shall we do?" "Fight anyway." "You can never defeat another if you know not how to defeat yourself." my tradelist |
