Breaking on the charge, eliminating front ranks, avoiding shots by hiding behind forests -- all that isn't going to cut it in 8th.<br /><br />Let this be a reminder to all the Fantasy players at the NOVA Open. The main reason we removed the painting requirements is so that you bring an 8th edition list. New game, new strategies. Bring your A-game, because everyone else will.Lost Cateranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12184783857223398865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388453741033869908.post-6151970788308128522010-08-02T05:46:51.770-07:002010-08-02T05:46:51.770-07:00Because people think that an extra rank of S3 atta...Because people think that an extra rank of S3 attacks (spears) or going up to S4 instead of having armor (halberds) is a good idea.

...I won, against Bretonnians, not really sure how.<br /><br />Swordsmen seem really good, so do Bretonnian Trebuchets, and obviously the artillery was pretty useful.<br /><br />The handgunners were good for dinging things up.
