I’m betting that he is baiting me to kill rook and actualy wants grave with the martial mastery or versatile whatever, the one that could ground my NC…; im ok with that and best case is they actually wanted rook and i just killed him so that’d be great
could have gone battlesuits and midband Vir for similar effect but Mech loses effect every turn its not out and like this it’s pretty scary
note to self: don’t worker time spiral when u r hiring Vir, forgot about the mech

ooooh i drew double time, and i can make mech arrive with a seer, this is basically ideal if i dont use this card in this game i doubt i ever will xd

ok, defensive play and big Vir or aggresive but less good trades and Vir ends up on lower health, I reckon defensive and make use of this map, having him on the backfoot is great as it means they have to patrol and can’t reap map benefits whereas I can just patrol the new units and make the others bigger! patrolling seer out front so they can kill it and i get its arrive ability again, if they don’t kill it all good too

Yo @zhavier what happens if I flicker my mech with Geiger? First as its a token does the ability still work normally? Second as it has forecast will it have to be forecast again? Im guessing yes, yes, but want to check
@FrozenStorm @charnel_mouse to keep the game moving in case zhavier is asleep or something I thought I’d up the chances of a fast reply and you guys normally know these things :slight_smile:

10

geiger’s ability has :target: mech untargetable by both of you. Even if he could, a trashed token doesn’t return. it disappears from the game.

11

Thanks @Legion ! I didn’t know untargetable would work like that but I did vaguely remember something about tokens and prynns ability which is what made me check this at all :+1:

hmm a slightly annoying snapback (should have used vir to attack last turn!) but actually max’s maxband on a hive would be so good that getting him out and midbanded is pretty nice. not gonna hire sentry to keep hand size up, hes got no damage out of hand here so nice position

vulnerable to sparkshot here, but not much I can do about it, and the nearly inevitable double time here. And chances seem good he will even kill me directly this turn. White on P2 was not in a good position in this map.

For dwarddd

How would Geiger’s maxband on a Hive help? The initial Stingers would disappear when it got flickered.

Yea, that was pretty much expected. There was at least a chance I had 1 more turn before double time, but it was pretty close to zero.

GG!

White player 2 here was set up for failure i think, but maybe I shoulda done some things differently.

17

Yh it was never going to be easy for you, only turn that baffled me slightly of yours was patrolling rook front and centre turn 2, rambasa twins were a nice idea tho, was expecting birds to come too…

18

Primus in front means it either gets bounced or killed by battle suits fargo, sensei in front gets killed by vir or fargo or nullcraft, not playing a hero meant going down further on cards or just letting you clear my board and maybe even break my tech 1. Rook was the biggest thing I could put down, but there wasnt a way to make him safe. Likely, the better play was a midband Grave and not tech in rambasa, but 2 sparrings partners. a 3/4 body in front would have been a better deterent to what you ended up doing, and not killing it meant i might use sword on that evil nullcraft.
