That was initially my hope - that a lot ...Thanks! <br /><br />That was initially my hope - that a lot of these Warbands could form the core of Warcry units... and in cases, such as this, where the faction has TWO warbands (that I have both of) might be enough to make a complete Warcry warband on their own! I'm not sure this alone makes up a warcry warband... They do, eventually, make up Warcry stats for all of the Warhammer Underworlds warbands... but they're sometimes hard to track down (published in White Dwarf, etc). With the previous edition of Warcry, they were all compiles in a book... but have not done so for the most recent edition. Some of them end up on the Warcrier (independent website devoted to Warcry) <br /><br />I supposed they could be used in Song of Blades and Heroes...? timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928949644765765070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140646711960604590.post-57131192936466350362024-03-18T14:16:48.259-07:002024-03-18T14:16:48.259-07:00Another great warband, and now you have a little u...Another great warband, and now you have a little unit of Deepkin to use for some other sort of game too.

I was thinking INEED THESE - not to play Blood Bowl, just to have because they look so fun! I have since come to my senses and reasoned with myself and decided: NO, I don't really need any MORE stuff... well.. more stuff that isn't specifically for something I'm, actually currently playing! <br /><br />I did play Blood Bowl a long, long time ago. But I haven't played in 34 years... It seems bonkers to say I haven't played that game for 34 years!? I do still have most of the stuff! Every so often I feel like breaking it out and trying to play it.

If you can only run four figures in a regular game, why "waste" any of them on support weapons or flying units?

Regular old school battletech maxes out at about 4 per player, and that can be a very long game... however, it is the detail in that battle that can be fun.

Kind of a sequel, but I don't know if there is any link between them. I don't plan to buy it any time soon (famous last words), as I am trying to get through my un-played games, and want to weed out stuff that I don't really enjoy or don't see myself playing, before adding a bunch of other games to my shelf of opportunity. On the other hand, Creature Comforts was a recent purchase and I really like it, even though I bought it while other games have sat un-played on my shelves for years. :D Fitz-Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510866929782142007noreply@blogger.com
