Semaine 3
Exalted CID Update Week 3, Frustrum Locus Update Week 2
Yesterday, 02:55 PM
Makeda & the Exalted Court: Overtake on some war beasts was proving to be quite game breaking when combined with Makeda's Incite. Changing this spell to target only warriors and cost 1 instead of being an upkeep should make it more likely to affect her self. It also keeps it's strong synergy with some combat solos/units as cleave through large swaths of the opposing army. It removes the interaction of Molik Karn or a Bronze Back killing whole units of infantry and several heavy warjacks/beasts when combined with Makeda's feat.
Bonus points +25.
Replace Hand of Death with Hand of Ruin:
Hand of Ruin 1 – – – Turn No
Target friendly Faction warrior model gains Overtake and its weapons gain Grievous Wounds. Hand of Ruin lasts for one turn. (A model hit by a weapon with Grievous Wounds loses Tough XICONX and cannot have damage removed from it for one round.) (When a model with Overtake destroys one or more enemy models with a basic melee attack during its Combat Action, after the attack is resolved it can immediately advance up to 1˝.)
Aradus Sentinel: Due to the incredible pressure applied by certain warlocks we felt the easiest way to solve any issues of oppressive assassinations was to allow for melee engagement to be a viable counter play.
Cut Gunfighter.
Bronzeback Titan: The Bronzeback received clerical updates to it's animus.
Animus Cost RNG AOE POW DUR OFF
Puissance 1 Self – – RND No
Tiberion: Rather than make Tiberion a complex model we've opted to further reduce his cost.
Cost 19.
Extoller Advocate: The Advocate received a clerical update to Grave Wind.
Grave Wind does not grant concealment.
Abidan the Keeper: It was shown that 8 damage boxes was simply too many when coupled with Abidan's recursion.
5 damage boxes.
Aptimus Marketh: Marketh received some consistency updates to bring him in line with other Extollers. We also removed his ability to purchase additional attacks with Souls. We feel his offensive output is overall higher with the addition of Spirit Eye.
Gain Gunfighter XICONX.
Cut Soul-Powered.
Spirit Eye gains Ghost Shot:
Ghost Shot - This model ignores LOS, concealment, and cover when making attacks with this weapon.
Extoller Novititate: In the majority of the game STR increases like this only last a turn. We tried it at Round and found it to be a little too strong. Standardizing this rule with the rest of the game will help newer players.
Change the text of Stone's Wrath to:
Stones’ Wrath (★Action) - RNG CMD. Target friendly Faction construct model. If the model is in range, it gains +2 STR this turn.
Hakaar the Destroyer: We had significant feedback that Hakaar was slightly overpriced.
Cost 6.
Immortal Vessel: Much like Marketh, the Vessel received consistency updates to match other models with the same type of weapon.
Gain Gunfighter.
Frustrum Locus: The Frustrum Locus showed to be a little strong. Instead of removing the ability to boost or lower the potency of it's ranged attack we opted to reduce it's RAT to 6. We also saw the feedback about how useful Arcane Vortex is in a theme force full of Units. Void Generator should be a more usefully interactive rule with Units.
RAT 6.
Replace Arcane Vortex with Void Generator:
Void Generator - At any time during its activation, this model can spend a power token to give a friendly Faction model/unit within 5˝ of it Mage Static for one round. (Enemy magic attacks targeting a model with Mage Static suffer –5 RNG. Model lose Mage Static while out of formation.)
Theme Forces:
Convergence Theme Force: Clockwork Legions: This theme is receiving a clarity change. This will remove the strange interaction with the command attachments in the Convergence. This also removes Iron Mother Directrix from the list of models that sometimes received this rule.
Change the fourth benefit to the following:
Eradicator, Perforator, and Reciprocator units in this army gain Vengeance. (During your Maintenance Phase, if one or more models in a unit with Vengeance were damaged by enemy attacks during the last round, each model in the unit can advance 3˝ and make one basic melee attack.)
Skorne Theme Force: The Exalted: This is essentially a non-change that removes Makeda 3 her self from the list of models that received Immovable Object.
Change the third benefit to the following:
Construct models in this army gain Immovable Object. (A model with Immovable Object cannot become knocked down, cannot be placed, and cannot be moved by a push, slam, or throw.)
