Mierce Miniatures

Everyone,

Please note that all of the kindred musters have been updated to reflect the new units revealed in Darklands: Starter Hosts and to fix a few errors here and there. Additionally, please note that shields have now been removed as combat weapons.

Go here to download them: http://mierce-miniatures.com/index.php?act=drm

Feel free to note any errors or typos in these updates by replying to this post.

Cheers
Rob

Rob, more of a question that anything.
The Fir Bholg Currak has compel Fir Bholg and Influence Fir Bholg Hurler. Should the new Fir Bholg Throwers also be included as compelled or influenced?

Their wound counter also calls them off as Fir Bholg Hurlers.

Yes they should... good spot! Will fix.

Sorry, this is a bit late...

Jute Muster:

Wiglaca Lantern has Death instead of Soul Damage.

Deathbringer lantern misses some kind of switch/switch hands. I know, it's two-handed in the CC profile, but for consistencies sake I mentioned it... also it might be a nice idea to give him the option for "close combat shot weapon"-mode and Deadhand
Oh... and the Light of the Deathbringer misses the line about not increasing lantern "M+W".

Nihtbat has kin Guthbat and Bind+(Nihtbat), guess there's something off.

Licwace and Wiglaca lanterns are no close combat shot weapons. While that might be intended it is a bit weird that a mage like the Wiglaca would rather clobber someone with the lantern itself than shoot him point-blank...

Tomb Spider Thumping Claws have a weird line next to the attack dice.

Note: The Ettenwihts lantern especially mentions, that its light affects the Ettenwiht itself. The lantern of the Deathbringer and the Gast Cynings crown do not mention that explicitly, also I assume they technically are within their own command range.

Best Sven

Eriann Muster:

Beast of Danu "spreading roots" can reduce the range to 0. (range is multiplied by D5 (0-4)) Might be intended though...

Fir Bholg Hurler got Corrution Damage on their close combat weapons, but the throwers do not.

Fomoraic Muster:

Nucranc:
Crushing claws have "Switch Hands (Deep Spear)" instead of Switch Hands (Crushing Claws)"
Two-handed claws have "Switch (Sea Spear)" instead of "Deep Spear"
Also I think, the claws should be primary weapons too, given their strength. Otherwise they keep using the claws and mark off the spear for lost constitution.
That might also lead to the idea that the champion might be able to choose whether to increase the spears or the claws' attack dice when purchased.

Walvax:
Flesh Hook has Switch and Switch Hands with the harpoon. Guess it can only be one, as "switch" forbids a simultaneous use.
(Also I still think the Flesh Hook is too brutal, compared to the two-handed harpoon )

Best Sven

Sell sword muster
Alix is missing the option for the Swifthorse

Ysian muster
the hound-horse is not listed under the mount options of the war-drune and battle-drune

Both are as intended.

That's because it's less powerful than the others.

To be honest I'm going to remove all the switch hands stuff, it's all covered by the Hands attribute; but the point is moot here - the shot weapon should have 2 hands. As for the deadhand... he can't wield the lantern in one hand.

deadlydeceiver wrote:Oh... and the Light of the Deathbringer misses the line about not increasing lantern "M+W".

Good spot, will fix.

deadlydeceiver wrote:Nihtbat has kin Guthbat and Bind+(Nihtbat), guess there's something off.

Yeah, will sort.

deadlydeceiver wrote:Licwace and Wiglaca lanterns are no close combat shot weapons. While that might be intended it is a bit weird that a mage like the Wiglaca would rather clobber someone with the lantern itself than shoot him point-blank...

Good spot, will add those. It's weird because I've always played them as combat shot weapons!

deadlydeceiver wrote:Tomb Spider Thumping Claws have a weird line next to the attack dice.

Sorted

Correct, it's to do with command range. The Ettenwiht doesn't have one, technically, so that had to be mentioned.

Byzantii Muster:

Auxilia Option: Thick line under arcus

Gladiator: Thick line under Léonis

... ok, there are a LOT of strange thick lines in this muster

Demimagus: Staff of infernum has three attack dice, but only 2 are counted.

Hippoxus: Either "Club" should probably be named "Bell" or the replacement (Bell) of the Flail Bell is off.

Onager: C+A is wrong

Rob,

The Hippeus seem to have gone missing from the Atalantes muster list, as has their host champion (Heracles?). Of course that could be entirely intentional, just thought I should mention it.

James

deadlydeceiver wrote:Fomoraic Muster:

Yeah, sorted. I'm going to remove Switch Hands I think, it's a bit superfluous.

Good point, I'll change that.

Again, I'll remove Switch Hands anyway.

Regarding brutality... the Harpoon is really meant to be thrown, not used in combat much!

Hi James

Yeah, intentional... I want to leave them until there's miniatures on the way for them. I try to do that with all of the musters but invariably fail ;o)

I think that's it so far, keep 'em coming guys!

Rob,

The Werbera unit has compel (Werbera) as one of their rules in bear form.

Rob,

Werbera Thegn is listed as Kindred: Anglecynn Sellsword

Werbera is listed as Kindred: Anglecynn Sellsword

Is that intentional for future changes, or a carry over from Beowa's data?

Rob,

Another Werbera, Constitution as Bear listed as 32, but they have 42 boxes on the hits bar. Which is correct? I am assuming they're supposed to match, or am I totally off base?

Plus the Bear-man rule makes reference to replacing a Duguth or Gesith mustered champion as long as the Werbera Mustered Champion option is taken. But I don't see that option on any of the entries.

Dunni the Stout wrote:Werbera Thegn is listed as Kindred: Anglecynn Sellsword

Thanks, fixed.

Am a mistake - it should be 42.

vras lord and vras chief
both may ride a goz horror but do not have equipment options for the spear that comes with the mounted model

demyse wrote:vras lord and vras chief

An excellent point! Can't believe I've missed that. I've also not added the Goz-Horror's Kill-Head and armour plates...!

Sorted!

Cheers
Rob

Also
Kill vras (warchief) has a higher authority than a vras lord (warlord)

Spear vras armour option has a cost of zero

demyse wrote:Also

Both sorted! Thank you!

Rob,
Is it intended that the Anglecynn Forthegn doesn't have compel Gesith anymore?

James

Just noticed there is only 3 Authority difference between a Tarvax Untain and Tain, is that right?

VALPHAOMEGAV wrote:Is it intended that the Anglecynn Forthegn doesn't have compel Gesith anymore?

Hmmm, no. Looks like a copy/paste error.

They should have "Shieldwall; Compel (Gesith, Duguth, Duguth Ēored, Geoguth); Influence (Werwulf)". I'll sort it, good spot. I'll change the Thegn accordingly as well.

demyse wrote:Just noticed there is only 3 Authority difference between a Tarvax Untain and Tain, is that right?

Yes, their Authority is not brilliant and it's a juggling act - I don't want them higher than some others, and lowering the Tain would make them unviable in certain lists.

Cheers
Rob

Current authority of gabrax untains means that they can't be the general in a list with tarvax tains in. Just checking that that is as intended?

Fomoraic spells of the ice - Ice Shards spell is described as a focus spell but has all the characteristics (range bandings) of a sight spell. Is it supposed to be a sight spell?

Thanks
H

Yes, that's correct.

HughB wrote:Fomoraic spells of the ice - Ice Shards spell is described as a focus spell but has all the characteristics (range bandings) of a sight spell. Is it supposed to be a sight spell?

That was done to reduce it's effectiveness; it was a Sight spell at one stage, but focus makes it a little harder for the Fomoraic wizards. Fomoraic, you see, were becoming all about sorcery and delivering that sorcery for Fomoraic players at events.

Cheers
Rob

We're not allowed all of the nice things because we're bad smelly goat men with an overfondness for zapping our friends with freezy spells? Makes sense. Ah wells, thanks for the clarification.

Simply put, Fomoraic should be about getting into combat, not sitting back being all sorcerous and avoiding combat... that was it really.

Cheers
Rob

Gabrax Tain and Untain have mighty strike on their hornbutt, but regular gabrax do not.

Also a Gabrax warlock doesn't have a hornbutt attack at all, but I assume this is because they are a caster?

Okay, maybe I'm missing something, but this CANNOT be as intended:

The Baleful Sun
Focus
Living Marks: The Marked warriors within the Marked unit must be friendly warriors with the Living trait.
Continuous Effect: The Marked unit becomes slowed and one Marked warrior per invoked die, chosen by the Invoker, becomes unconscious.
Rules: Once per Mark

Hopefully the bolded and underlined part of that text makes my question clear.

EDIT: Also, is thr Warrior of Baalor profile supposed to have the kin "Warrior of Baalor"? Are they that far removed from their fellow men?

Not sure if it'still been pointed out yet but the Oghureach are armed with glaives whilst their Rhud gains +1Attack Dice (Pole-blade).

demyse wrote:Gabrax Tain and Untain have mighty strike on their hornbutt, but regular gabrax do not.

Intended! It's enough that they get a Horn Butt with Charge+.

In the fomoraic muster, we've now got rules for ograx untains/tains an ograx reiver untains/tains but the only troop section entry appears to be for ograx reivers. There is no troop section for plain old ograx. Oversight or are you thinking about doing something a bit different with them?

Rend terror for Vras classed as an ardent mount, but not mount only. does this mean we will get a version without a rider? Just wondering as this wasn't funded during SH3
Also its acuity is feral but it doesn't have a marked frenzied dice.

Infernii Muster,
Helmet of Dis armour option on Servile Lord and Liege has 'hands 1'
Great axe of Dis and 2 axes of Dis on Servile Lord and Liege has 'hands 0'
Great axe of Dis on servile Liege has class 'natural'
Slaughterfiend feral but no additional feral attack dice

FOmoraic Muster,
Reivers currently have Bind (Ograx), should that be Ograx Reivers instead?

Got a full schwack that I've been meaning to post:

Ysian Muster
- The Sword-Melusine sairen-song reads weird:
"...any unit engaged with the Sairen unit...immediately becomes confused until the end of their next activation. If the Sword-Melusine unit contains a mustered herald, the Marked unit immediately becomes entangled and confused."
That wording with the bolded part seems to hurt the buffed unit. Maybe I'm just misunderstanding how its supposed to be used, but it seems odd.

- Meat-Hulk Meat-Hammers have weapon rule “Mighty Blow” rather than “Mighty Strike”
- Brute-Beast Great Brute-Club has weapon rule “Mighty Blow” rather than “Mighty Strike”

Atalantes Muster
- Pyrokolossos champion says “+1 shoot die (subeam), but none of its weapons are called “Sunbeam”

Fomoraic Muster
- Armour upgrades replace “Limited Armour”, but no armour is called “Limited Armour”: Mallax Untain, Walvax Untain, Sronox
- Armour upgrades replace “Scavenged Armour”, but no armour is called “Scavenged Armour”: Mallax

Khthones Muster
- Armour upgrades replace “Light Half Plate”, but no armour is called “Light Half Plate”: Hydrarchon
- Trained Savrakontar ubiquity change reads “…and Uncommon [Gorgon]” rather than “…and Uncommon [non-Savres]”
- Veteran Gorgonar do not specify which realm ubiquity changes (could be that they are Common all around, but shouldn’t they be rarer in non-Gorgon realms?)

Byzantii muster. The signifier fiend helm grants fearsome, but the magus infernum demon helm does not, is that correct?

Hi all,

Think I found a error in the atalantes muster rules.

I received Ogros of bronze with a 120mm base. The info found on the web store says the same.
But with the muster rules he must be deployed on 100mm base.

What is correct ?
