Mierce Miniatures

Geoff

Since we're asking questions about trample again i thought it would be rude not to jump on the band (trample) wagon. If a trampler first contacts a unit at a point that is within his pace value but then continues to move through the unit such that he moves over his pace value while still moving thr...

Geoff

As further Ysian lore comes to light I will add it to the compendium. If I've missed owt, let me know below, cheers.

Geoff

The degenerates of Ys , wholly damned by that decadent city and their Queen Euryalia, who is and yet is not the Horned God upon the earth; the treacherous Drunes of Kernow, kinslayers and betrayers, stubbornly holding to their brooding fortresses even as the rest of Prytain suffers; the remnants of...

I've added a Play Reference Card, not really happy with this one too much. May rework, any suggestions welcome of course. I've only just seen this and oh man, it is great! You've got the PAGE NUMBERS for the actions AND a summary of the reactions with their page numbers too. Plus a bunch of other u...

Geoff

Good stuff Antoine, keep it up mate!

Geoff

Thanks fellas, those answers really helped a lot. The MOVED THROUGH unit can only react with a reflex attack action, IF the MOVING THROUGH unit is of course large and strong enough to do so. Cheers Doc for the example - wonderful stuff. Hope Arthurs' not been keeping track of where all my questions ...

Geoff

OK, but they REALLY should have done, right? I mean, that would have been the correct next thing to do wouldn't it? This also leads me to a question thats been baking my noodle... Say a unit is inbetween a target and its attacker (and the attackers move rate is enough to reach the target with or wit...

Geoff

What do you think of it so far? For me, it's too early to say. The miniatures are undoubtedly superb and they've been (and continue to be) a fun and challenging excercise to get on the table. We're only just able to begin wrestling with the rulebook now we have a small host to field. And I do mean ...

Geoff

Hi, Do you folks think what is posted on the facebook page should also be posted on the forums? I'd have liked to have been able to put in some suggestions for 'Mierce Merchandise' and taken part in other stuff that gets put up on the FB too, but would have missed it had I not just checked it. I've ...

Yeah, of course we did.... (notices there's no looking away and whistling emote)

Geoff

This is necro-ing an old thread I know but just reading this I'd like to ask a quick question, which is, at the moment the player declared his intention to directly engage, why didn't the second Wihtgār unit immediately announce a reaction?

Geoff

Thanks for all the clarifications Rob!

Geoff

Well, some monsters are better than udders, obviously.

Geoff

I'd best swap out Brugg for this beaut fresh from the Ysian cattleshed (pre-painted too). https://image.ibb.co/eAoMyT/Vintage_Delft_Blauw_Holland_Dutch_Girl_Carrying_Milk_Water.jpg MILKING ACTION. Vigorous action The unit performing the milking action, referred to as the Milking Unit, must be within...

Geoff

Ahh, that's me assuming damage was the result of an attack, hence being part of the Attack results, hence not being applied! The choice, or not as in the case here, as to whom an available target would be is one I already knew, had read but forgotten about so eager was I to attack Annik! Really appr...

Geoff

In regards to the re roll every hour (turn) is started with one player having the initiative. Say hour 1 player A got inititative, in hour 2 player B gets the re roll. If Player B is successful they gain the initiative and Player A would get the re roll hour 3. However if player B busts (rolls high...

Geoff

Thank you for another thorough reply Doc. I'll wait for Rob to clarify the ins-and-out of the Reform move, because as it stands it could well be used to move a unit up to 6" before it takes its own vigorous or wearying action for the hour. If this is acceptable and intentional, fine, but I'd li...

Geoff

That's brilliant, thank you muchly for such a thorough and detailed reply - you not only took stock of the situation as described/shown but your comments also gave a broader understanding of some connected rules. I didn't perform the reflex action as I read the attack resolution only affected blood ...

Geoff

Modifiers are correct though.. and don't forget about Bulk Chargers, find this on the musters, bulk chargers get extra attack dice..

Yep, got that thanks - page 48. Those early pages are easily missed after you start reading the Actions chapter!

Geoff

Sheesh, this is phenomenal. I would not want to encounter THAT on the field!!

Would love to see some of your original stuff. Wouldn't surprise me if you got onto Robs list of sculptors with this quality.

Geoff

Geoff, I was getting my Charge confused with my Swift Charge which is greater than pace but less than pace x2. And I believe it's only the swift charge that offers the charge modifiers.. but again I could be wrong..and often am..lol No mate, you're probably right but I can't find it in the book whe...

Geoff

I believe the Gabrax can be camouflaged in the snow so I would guess their movement is not impaired by it.. Well, whoop de doo for them. Does it help the Ysians? Nope. It probably gives my lot really crap modifiers etc., so snow can ... just go flake itself. I'm taking my hobby knife next time so t...

Geoff

Looking good *thumbs up*

Geoff

Worth noting I believe units of 60mm bases or bigger can walk through normally

Yep, Brugg was totally fine with the snow. First time he's washed his feet I bet. Was thinking more of the smaller units, including some of the Gabrax (small sheep dudes) that could have been slowed by it.

Geoff

As per my understanding of reform move, you have to end your movement within join distance of another warrior within the unit, this would apply also to the first moving warrior. So it would allow the warriors lagging behind catch up, but it's pretty hard to move forward, especially if you're reform...

Geoff

In the case of bruk he is also feral so must be on attack orders and must charge the closest unit in line of sight so couldn’t move around on a move order. However the non feral units could do this Yes, I realised this after I'd set my sights on Annik but wanted to carry on with the scenario to dem...

Geoff

Thanks for your replies chaps. Jonathon - I don't understand why he would not be able to reach Annik in this situation - why not? What pertinent facts are in play here? Brightblade - " the charge must be greater than the Charging Units Pace, but less than it's Pace x 2 " - where is this me...

Geoff

OK... I have Annik, the general joined to a unit of Ax-Drunes. Brugg wishes to charge Annik, and would be a very happy brute if he can cause damage to the unit inbetween them on the way. so the question is... may Brugg target out Annik individually, or because she is joined with the drune unit MUST ...

Geoff

Hi, can someone clarify the following, thanks. REFORM ACTION A Reform Action is either Effortless or Vigorous, simply determined by the players choice to make it so? True/False? An effortless Reform Action performed three times in one hour could move a single unit 6" in addition to any other ac...

Geoff

Wow you guys painted these up nicely! The eternal Question who was victorious? Ysians or Formoraic? Thank you very much Jonathon. Despite his own claims, Arthur is a very talented painter and modelmaker. He's so fast too, I don't know how he tables so much quality stuff in the time he does. Scenery...

Geoff

Really nice Antoine, you have both great skill and generosity!

Geoff

Well, there you go. That's great, many thanks for the clarifications guys. Guess my Ysians best pack their snowshoes from now on.

Geoff

Hey Brightblade!

if you play at a club up there, maybe Ill pop by when I'm up and give you a game..

Absolutely. Just drop us a PM when next you are planning a trip and we can arrange something. Great stuff.

Geoff

Hey, excellent to see this here, awesome stuff Arthur! Indeed a record of our first game should go recorded - it will remind us as how much we have learned in a few months time ;_) I think you you summed up what happened very nicely mate, I can't really add anything to that. It was awesome to actual...

Hi, I'm Geoff, from Preston, a recovering board and roleplaying gamer and new to the whole wargaming scene. Pleased to be here.

These are incredible, man, you have so much talent. Can only imagine the effort going into these. What a way to suddenly appear on the forum , with these beauties (and the others images you posted today)! Would love to see/read about the WIP for one of your custom jobs. How the hell do you even begi...

Geoff

Woah! Incredible work!

Geoff

Thanks Jonathon, knew I'd read it somewhere. I think much-referred too stats like that should be stated in a couple of places (such as 2.7.2.1.7 pg. 55) and definitely in the index. COMMAND RANGE: AUTH /10 rounded down in inches. FOCUS RANGE: TEMPER /10 rounded down in inches. INSTRUMENT RANGE: The ...

Geoff

I'm assuming Focus Range equals Temper /10 rounded down in inches, but cannot for the life of me see where this is written in the rulebook. Can somebody please point out the rule number or page this is referenced?

Cheers!

Geoff

Your host is looking impressive already, but my lads aren't so easily cowed!

Geoff

Welcome to the forums mate

Geoff

Hey man, that's an AWESOME set-up you have built, congratulations. The mini's are really nice too - thumbs up all round!

Geoff

Yep, me too - much preferred the black background. It offered more contrast, made it easier to see what's where and was more atmospheric. As Brightblade said, suited the game more.

Though it does indeed load faster for me too!

I'd like to send Joanna a PM so she can update her playerbase records, is it possible for PM's to be activated? Would also help to be able to PM other forum users too in the future. Thanks!

Geoff

Ill keep an eye out for the the Army Painter primer Jonathon, but Halfords seem to have priming sorted, thanks. I have a big store very local so that's too handy! Wanting to have some for the Bank Holiday I bought the one I linked to and tried it out yesterday - fortunately it's really nice and does...

Geoff

No access to an airbrush, so I''m looking at various rattle-cans to do the priming.
