Rush strategy?

By sa3xxx, in Tannhauser

Hi! :)

I was thinking of some rush strategy in TH. I consider strategy to be 'rush' if you can eliminate some of opponent's chars during first (say) two turns, while not loosing your unit (or maybe sacrificing a trooped to slay a hero?).

I'm not familiar with all web tokens (to be fair, I do know very little of them) and still I dont have ON (but want to order it, as fast as possible).

The only strategy I've thought of so far is to choose mental pack (with infiltration) on "house" map ( http://www.tannhauser-thegame.com/databank/Image/tactical%20maps/tm-chateau-hd.jpg ), let opponent beggin (if possible), use Eva as your last character. Find some Union hero not using a melee weapon (McNeal or Tala) and get him with Strafe. There is some chance (~40%) for one hit K.O. (well, making 3 wounds isn't that bad as well). Then move behind some door. (It's good if you have some characters prepared to cover the escape).

This strategy isn't 100% good (if it was, it would have been changed by creators :) ), but it can govern you a great advantage :)

Any suggestions using new characters/tokens/maps? :)

Eva with the Infiltration pack is surely a good start to hit the opponent hart at the beginning, but has the disadvantage of not having "critical hit"

Good additions to this tactic may be the Online tokens "Wunderstahl" (Stamina is always 5) and "Obscura Korps' Band" (cahracter may reroll one natural 1 per gameturn)

Another way may be Using Eva and Yula as a Melee Team. Eva utilize her Combat Package and Yula her Stamina Pack. Swap Yulas luger and the First aid kit für Bonus Tokens Backstab (Auto wound if yula and her target weren't on the same path the round before) and Twin Strke (If the caracter with twin strike attacks, another Blutsturm Character on the Same Path may attack with his lowes combat value. the sucesses are added to the first characters sucesses, special effects of the second character weapon are ignored)

With that you rush forwanrd with both. if you can get them on the same Path, and then attack a target with yula, when she enterd the path, so backstab works, you can hit very badly:

5 Rolls for yula attacking 3 rolls from Twinstrike with Eva, 2 Addional Sucesses from Krueger and Strafe, one outo wound from Backstab and one autowound from Pollonium when hitting with natural 10, also you may reroll the lowest value from eva due to critical hit.

Or you could attack the other way round with Eva, but then you should chose Combat pack for both, giving Eva the twin strike. Then you wont get the Automatic wounds, but have 5+4 rolls +2 hits, can reroll 1 die for each, and have the chance of strangleing the opponent with strafe.

This tacics of your means that you have to run to the opponent, but since both, eva and yula have quite high Movement values, and have a good chance of taking out most of the opposing characters with one Attack, it's worth it.
