It is almost Monday again. Thinking about some crazy stuff I can do with Outland Scouts.

It's so funny watching all of you that are 16 hours in the past. We're just thinking about heading into Tuesday and you're hanging out for the day we just lived.

I'm going with Elven Infantry command today.

Though why settle for 125 side army? Get two Uthuk cores and two Uthuk infantry commands. Should get you close to 200

All in good time. I haven't got pissed off yet by how slow and combo dependant my undead are yet to jump factions. And with Wraiths and Death Knights I should be fine for a while.

Don't do it Polda! You know the rule of minis!

Winter is coming and that means more indoor time with paintbrushes for me....harder to prime though.

Brush on primer... ?. It does a better job anyway.

well that was an uneventful article. One new card, which is basicaly anti-daqan in design but since its a discard might not be used much.

Also i still find it hilarious theyre suggesting cursed signets on the siege. Cursed Signets needs a "may" clause to be any value, otherwise i can just have a golem Stun you to death easily.

It's a pretty mean card, though.

Like i said, anti-daqan. Unless you're discarding boons it doesnt seem that useful imo for a 1shot effect at 3pts. But, against Daqans who commonly have inspiration stacks...thats pretty mean.

If i start seeing that card alot im going to start using the card that lets me spend a bane to give another unit a bane. I'm already tempted to start using that, lots of banes are being annoying lately (sadly the more common one, Stun, is impossible to get rid of w/o a primary dial Rally or banked up inspiration)

I already view the elves as a bit of a daqan counter as it is. Not a solid rock vs scissors counter but definitely an uphill battle (may change come scouts/crossbows)

Immobiling anyone as you peg them from afar is excellent.

It does strike me as pretty anti-Daqan, but the immobilize is still useful! I guess it's more "immobilize no matter what" which is pretty sweet. Is it any good? Well, three points for a guaranteed immobilize will cost a melee unit a turn most of the time (Rallying Musicians and Lord Hawthorne aside), which considering that mostly melee won't happen until turn 3-4 is kind of a big deal. Especially if the Scion then uses its innate abilities to stall an ADDITIONAL turn, you're really cutting into a unit's productive turns.

That said, Rallying Musicians are pretty sweet, so this immobilize is not nearly as guaranteed as it looks.

So odds on a second article?

Slim to nil?

It's got to be the Maegan article today.. right? We don't even have her dial yet.

This is my thought as well.

Maybe this week they will reveal the Super Star Destroyer. Oh wait wrong game, it'll be Maegan this week for sure.

Are we missing any other elf articles? Did we have the Leonx one already? I'm trying to figure out if next week is more elves or possibly the new uthuk unit (in all probability the viper legion archers).

Command pack next week I wager.

Still missing details on the command pack, all we got was the initial reveal (which is basically generic stuff, generic stuff, 1 champ and 1 banner unique to the faction. Still a lot of stuff not known in there)

I'd be willing to bet we'll get a couple articles about the units already out before they release viper legion. We still don't have dials for anything but Ravos and Kethra.

We are due a Leonx rider however I don't anticipate anything new honestly as they have been shown without any Latari only upgrades.

MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta be Leonx right?

Same here, there's plenty in that pack to still reveal.

And it's probably shipping soon

Everything except the Darnati are due to release this Thursday (5 Oct).

Wasn't this already spoiled tho? I thought Leonx were the only units that haven't had their own article.

Truth be told, I'm too lazy to go searching, and I really don't care as long as we see some Latari.
