The problem with having a cycle at all is that games are only 5 rounds long, so it doesn't ever feel like a cycle because you never go back around to the starting position. Doubly so if they insist on having 7 options on there for Nurgle's number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some games it does barely anything, other games it's just brutal to play against. Thematically it's cool, but I think they need to remove it, or put a lot more development into it Considering how flavourful the new rules feel, wouldn't surprise me if they keep the wheel or adapt it in some way.

woolf Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 So Nurgle has been corrupted by Zenestra it seems so no more wheel indeed... Disease a bit different but kinda the same I guess? and the wards sitting on the scrolls themselves not really surprising Did they mention summoning at all?

As mentioned in the Tzeentch article, summoning is deader than the dodos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wurdbad Triple-belly Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 It's sad, the profile of the GUO has become so generic, even no more difference between his weapons or the bell.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who hasn't assembled their GUO because they didn't feel like doing magnetising yet, I can kind of dsee why 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitGas Posted June 5 Author Share Posted June 5 The GUO seems pretty scary IMO - bringing back half of a unit sounds pretty sick (sry). Also it‘s a war of attrition vs. Nurgle seemingly, with them bleeding you out due to the MWs each round. As always, not enough to judge it properly but it doesn‘t look shabby IMO.

Wurdbad Triple-belly Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Above all, it takes away so much immersion: now a huge sword has no more difference than a simple bell 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree on the immersion. When they have a combat version and a non combat version the non combat version often hits like a limp noodle. I think that's more immersion breaking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of fluffy-rules but a lot of weird things on the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarouan Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Summoning B gone makes sense for balance. It was always a pain on that matter (and very easy to abuse in all previous editions). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
