Saga - My Vikings
Version 2 first impressions
I like it. The change to version 2 rules has been really positive.
Losing the warlord joint charge into combat isn’t a big loss and was a confusing rule for new comers to the game.
The straight lines movement isn’t that difficult to get used to either.
The fatigue acting like wounds once the Warlord fails to make saves is a really fun mechanic.
Still haven’t beaten the Normans in this version or the last. ?
The alternating activating abilities during combat seems an important step to remember, because it really effects some abilities.
My opponent let me off, but he threw down 3 abilities in combat against me, then I used a Viking ability that gives you 2 extra attack dice for every ability your opponent uses against you.
I should have used the ability first off as part of the alternate turns, so maybe he may never have committed the 2nd and 3rd abilities against me (that ended up giving me 6 extra dice to attack him with.)
Still learning the battle boards and still considering my lists; the game still has me hooked and will be painting more minis soon.
