So blue dragon and Nataraja are the SCs they have right?

Generally, at least two SCs are sufficent when two nations are tucked behind two others.

Hehe, Ano, you must really want Chris onboard.

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

whatcha talkinga bout ano... Set gets...

ghost king (great SC), PoD, 4 liches, LORD OF THE GATES, wyrm, and mom of monsters ain't bad at all.

oops ok.. its not CBM so lord of the gates isn't amazing. still very solid pretender choices.

Usurpers get oracle (immobile), sphinx (immobile) sacred statue (immobile), lady of fortune (not available), son of the son (crap), nataraja, Blue dragon, mother of rivers (not available)

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

What do ya mean NOT Available?

I am sure Ano wouldn't mind giving ya the Wyrm, it's sort of a universal pretender, like the manticore, though a serpent (a bit thematic for the death team), it is not bound by path restrictions.

Depending upon his time constraints, Chris (being a vet) can join as an advisor or captain (something he is sorta doing already). He could even take a leiutenant position (normally reserved for noobs or intermediates) but his captain would need to be either an intermediate or a noob.

Actually we have plans for a Wyrm so I do mind, sorry. And it is a serpent. There're other good pretenders as well that are not yet used like female Titan.
I'll explain: wyrm is a must-be pretender for MA C'tis that can't really take anything but undead or serpent because of Miasma dominion that is also a headache btw

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

Two of four Usurpers nations may take a female Titan which is a very potent dormant SC especially if you consider Arco healing. And she seems quite thematic to me

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

Darn it. Your right, forgot to add the female titan. Ooops.

Don't forget we still need a leuitenant and hopefully someone to replace my rather noobish self on Children of Crom.

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

And the lovely Lady of Love. Ain't she pretty?

Alright Chris, you heard Ano. He wants ya in. So get your arse in here. :)

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

A very potent pretender, btw due to her fantastic awe value.

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

I spent some time reading the last turns of the NaV team forums and I have to say this is gonna be an interesting fight. And chris, you definitely should jump in together with squirreloid.

Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI, Enlisting 14/17.
 

Female Titan and Lady of Love added.

Enemy commanders will say, Va Va Voom! :D

Astral has a lot going for it:

1. It is the probably the most powerful path in the game.

2. Communions are powerful and Wish is not a bad spell from what I understand.

3. Astral gems are the gold standard of magic gems and can be alchemetized into any other gem. And once arcane nexus and the other globals become available, it means an almost unlimited supply of them.

Remember to have fun with it and enjoy getting into team character. Competition is cool but sometimes it can cloud out all else. :)
