Devout Questions?

If he uses his Backstab ability he gets the claw, elbow spike at regular CC, and then an elbow spike at secondary attack -4.  I think I'm playing him correctly.

In CC he gets the claw and then secondary attack elbow spike.  The claw damage is STR +1  x2  so 6 x 2.  It's not in the book; I had to ask around on these forums.

If I'm wrong about this guy, let me know!!!!

    IN the book the scout is listed as being armed with 2 claw spikes and 2 elbow spikes, so I thought that maybe he gets his 2 claw attacks (the second at -4) and only gets elbows elbows with backstab.  It almost seems like he gets all (2 claws and 2 spikes) but only on ambush does he get the "free"(no -4) on the first elbow spike.  This almost seems too much.  But hey, I can live with it.   I'm using him for the first time tonight and don't want to "cheat".  boy, I wish their was a third edition to resolve some of this.

Here is how I have always played him.

The scout has 2 Claw Spikes and 2 Elbow Spikes.

The Elbow Spikes are free when using Back Stab.

If we assume that the Scout is not attacking from behind. He gets 2 attacks with the Claw Spikes, one at normal, one with the standard -4 for Secondary.

If, however, he is attacking from behind, his damage potential increases considerably. He gets basically 4 attacks, which work like this:

Attack #1: Claw spike (no modifiers), Elbow Spike (Free, no modifiers)

Attack #2: Claw Spike (-4 Secondary), Elbow Spike (Free, no modifiers)

I haven't nicknamed my Scout "The Cuisinart" for nothing.

Can't wait to play him correctly!!!!!  He was already a cuisinart last weekend and I wasn't even using all of his attacks!!

Thanks, Southpaw.

Southpaw -


I keep telling you that you are playing it wrong. The best way to deploy this fig is to place hin in the middle of a group of Blackblood Assault Warriors who have initiative. 

[joshuaslater]

Orc Assault Warriors, arguably the best troop in the game.  'Hate those guys!

     So, the 4-State Militia(DogOWar, Canonball, Troy-the-just) were battling it out in Chronograd.  I was fielding my "Pinball Wizard" Devout army( I had a Stalker & a Warp Lord with Vortex spell), and was throwing Vortex spells as fast as I could cast them( at one point I though the guys were going to make "dodo" in their pants, quite funny), and I was wondering how you would handle it if 2 of the Vortexs ran into each other?  Do you treat it as if they( Vortex) ran into an obstacle, or do they "pass thru" each other?

     

[joshuaslater]

Now that's one we have to think of.  The vortex is only stopped my solid terrain, so I would say they pass through each other.  Neither one is solid terrain. 

Optionally, you could play where they cause a rift in the space time continuum and everything on your gaming table disappears into a pocket dimension.     Pretty dorky that one.

     I think that if you manage to get 2 votexs to collide your opponents are immediately sucked into the Dusk Realm and find themselves surrounded by demons and playing in the background are a selection Of Olivia Newton John's greatested hits from Grease( "Your the one that I want", and "Hopelessly DEVOUTed to you"), playing until the end of time!!!
