Lo más importante es el despliegue.<br />Tampoco el terreno es muy importante a la hora de jugar. El terreno difícil da cobertura si te disparan, y la caballería no puede atravesarlo, pero aparte de eso nada más. Es decir, la infantería pesada o las picas por ejemplo, luchan igual que los escaramuzadores dentro de un bosque, cosa que no me acaba de convencer.<br /><br />En definitiva, me gusta bastante pero no es el sistema de mi vida; prefiero DBA y no porque sea más realista sino porque es más jugable.blacksmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11131707654108494186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143567506628342353.post-14984857673004793162010-12-10T16:08:08.855+00:002010-12-10T16:08:08.855+00:00Y ahora que tienes ya varias partidas a tus espald...Y ahora que tienes ya varias partidas a tus espaldas, ¿qué opinión te merece el reglamento?<br /><br />En tus batrep tiene una pinta estupenda.<br /><br />Por mi parte no le estoy dedicando mucho tiempo a la lectura, pero lo que tengo leido me gusta.<br /><br />Saludos<br /><br />EnbajiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143567506628342353.post-33432708435384916932010-12-07T10:58:48.045+00:002010-12-07T10:58:48.045+00:00No it is not a bad thing at all, it's differen...No it is not a bad thing at all, it's different and new and I need more time to get used to it :)blacksmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11131707654108494186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143567506628342353.post-91032922323274268222010-12-07T10:54:41.012+00:002010-12-07T10:54:41.012+00:00They are basically the same thing, which is why I ...They are basically the same thing, which is why I was surprised that the archers did not do better. That said, you used the Goblin skirmishers well to soak up the arrows, which could well be why the archers did not do well against the melee troops. I think it is just in how you use them.<br /><br />Mounted skirmishers are very hard to use well, I think, but their benefit is their speed. Getting them onto the flanks and rear of the enemy to cut off retreat paths and generally try to break up enemy formations may be their best use. I have not used them enough to know though.<br /><br />It certainly is a very different game from DBA or Warmaster, but that is no bad thing! :-)Ruaridhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003128932063213463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143567506628342353.post-83071686120858204702010-12-07T10:33:00.847+00:002010-12-07T10:33:00.847+00:00Hmm, I thought WH and RRtK were almost the same th...Hmm, I thought WH and RRtK were almost the same thing so maybe I'm doing something wrong?<br />You know, it's causing me pains to get used to how archers and skirmishers work in RRtK as in comparison to DBA/HotT or Warmaster.<br />Actually, I cannot see any usefulness in mounted skirmishers.blacksmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11131707654108494186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143567506628342353.post-41194943983727225592010-12-07T09:37:59.028+00:002010-12-07T09:37:59.028+00:00That's an interesting comment on the effective...That's an interesting comment on the effectiveness of the bows. With Warrior Heroes, the uber-army in our campaign is the Treyine army, which is bow-based. They have literally slaughtered everything that comes at them.<br /><br />Great report again, and good to see you getting on well with the rules.Ruaridhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003128932063213463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143567506628342353.post-73372785370531499522010-12-07T08:29:20.271+00:002010-12-07T08:29:20.271+00:00Bows are useful, specially against cavalry, and al...Bows are useful, specially against cavalry, and always if they have high Rep like these Elves, but a bow based army is as bad as an only cavalry army or any other type of unit army based alone.<br />Anyways, if I have to choose between those two armies of Elves and Orcs, I'd choose Orcs as archers cannot advance and then shoot like in other rulesets so they are more defensive and static. Also, in RRtK troops move fast and they contact enemy very soon, so archers can only fire a couple of times before melee. In the case of muskets with a range of three inches, they could only fire when being charge most of the times.blacksmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11131707654108494186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143567506628342353.post-90037784091483893782010-12-07T05:13:58.621+00:002010-12-07T05:13:58.621+00:00Great AAR Javier.
