Orchid & Nathaniel

[Subvert_Citizen]

all I can say is wow!

not only do these models look great but they perform equally if not better

I am very pleased with them:)

have others had the same success ??

[SpawnovChaos]

i have a clear memory of my failure, but we didnt use terrain

[maveric7717]

and there wasnt the john factor that i am so famous for. you may have killed him once but i swear it wont happen again for a while i think .... maybe if i use him as a kamakazie killer and kill your two gifted children then let him die and let my other forces mop up. and how badly did you lose shane?

i wounded orchid, thats about it

[maveric7717]

well thats a start and all you had was slaves and a deaths device right

[Subvert_Citizen]

one word john

POISON!

[SpawnovChaos]

mmhmm, i found out that you need to be able to at least kill one of them when you get into combat, or be able to take some serious smack down!

[Vaxillus]

I also played against them. I poisoned Nathaniel, which caused a wound, but then they jumped into combat and slaughtered 4 Banes and wounded my Reaver. I managed to kill Orchid, but Nathaniel then killed off whatever hope I had left with Deadlock. Though I guess with Deadlocks spray and pray killing three or so Banes, I can't really complain.

[Subvert_Citizen]

yeah that was a major pain!
i cant wait to run a deadlock of my own :wink:

[maveric7717]

i got your counter to poison a sister of compassion and a medic and a banger to gun you down before you get in range and i can heal poison and wounds ahahahha.. still will be a good battle

[Subvert_Citizen]

hahaha it's on!

[gunslinger]

there is always a counter assault to an assault.. in other words, there is always ying to yang, zen to aku, and point to counter point..

when one brings certain combos to the table in Dark Age, expect the next time to see a change to counter that combo and so on.. poison? sister compassion? hmmm, let's see, shoot the sister and well, she can't do jack, except die.. lol

[Vaxillus]

Nathaniel and Orchid definately have problems when it comes to taking hits. Stuff with high accuracy (AS) will have little trouble hurting them since their armor is not as stupendous as other close combat oriented fighters (not bad, just not as good as others). Their shooting arguably sucks and has a terrible Mal, so Dealock or a Banger (or even St. Mark) should be just the thing to take them out. Once they're in combat though, the massive amount of bonusses they get is just obscene. At one point, Nathaniel charged my Deadlock and hit her with a Power 14 attack, equal to her armor save. Ouch.

[gunslinger]

nathaniel and orchid are definately a pair.. they must be together and getting them into combat is imperative.. else you will have 160 points of wasted pewter dead on the table.. in combat as a pair they can fell even the strongest dragyri.. well at least that is currently available.. but delivering them unschathed is the wash..

ooooh, I always get a very nice sense of satisfaction when I manage to do that. example:

Ok, this guy hits that guy

but you didn't roll

I don't have too :twisted:



of course, you could always roll a twenty when playind DA which means you would miss :(

[gunslinger]

yep, you always have to roll, especially if there is a mal.. and we all know a 20 is a bad thing.. lol

[Subvert_Citizen]

some of us more than others...
wayne and his saint mark for example :lol:

i cant talkthough my first game 3 coils malfunctioned and died and john shot himself in the foot

[maveric7717]

st mark's rifle is not a plasma gun.. (shakes head).. you are lucky he didn't shoot you with it.. god's light.. IIRC it is a beam weapon..

[maveric7717]

gunslinger at the game we played he was to busy shooting himself in the foot. lol. wayne can tell ya all about the details. it was amazing to see mark die to himself. and hey at least i got plasma right ... :twisted:

[gunslinger]

silly me.. i guess there was a conversation back in the day that it wasn't a plasma gun but a beam weapon, and thus the reason for it's malfunctioning.. oh well.. once again, my tongue was faster than my brain..

and st. mark is notorious for mal'ing.. as well he should be with that rickety gun..

[maveric7717]

yeah its kinda like a 13th century farmer with a grenade ... bad things are bound to happen. its like what this pin thing do... oh opps this cap thing fell off .... (booooom!) .

[maveric7717]

np people make mistakes its kinda our trademark as humans. we just try to avoid making the big mistakes... oh opps uhh guys we forgot to put the supports on the 100 billion dollar bridge ... (splash). plus often times we speak before we think too. it is all forgiven. :)

[Subvert_Citizen]

yeah i dont kow why i said john but somehow you guys knew what i meant and that is all that matters.haha :)
