Beast mounts and continuously affects warriors.

Hi Rob, As discussed the rules aren't clear on what mass effect damage should affect when it is applied to beast-mounted warriors and nobles. There seems to be a precedent for combined might or constitution for attribute tests, so would, for example, an augur drune on Karnun beast (mass 4) go off th...

Re: Ysian muster corrections and questions

Hey Rob,

The unseeing trait, it currently allows those with it to see unseen or seen x units normally.

Is it also subject to other modifiers based on sight like difficultly seen and camouflage?

Since they aren't using their eyes but other senses I wondered how this works.

I think it's written the same as the spell sweet corruption which uses invoke damage rather than sorcerous.

Whether they should be sorcerous, I assume they should be.

Hi @Rob Lane I have a question about how the channelling as an effect works for the channel action.

Re: A list fit for a tournament!

That looks like a nice balanced list. I would echo Rob Lane on the sorcerers. If you can fit another seer drune in or even an augur drune I think that would help a lot vs offensive spells. Another main point with the kindred is that they have a lot of feral, and thus frenzied, units. This tends to d...

In the current ruleset of 2nd edition, effects like terrible and vicious damage occur on a fated 9 but also on an opponent's roll of 0 to parry, evade, avoid, so higher skilled troops can get affected by them.
