Factions can change from week to week, so instead of trying
a different warcaster every week, I get to try out my altaholicism.

Typically I plan two lists. A 500 and a 750. Sometimes I bring
enough to bring 1k, but I haven't gotten used to that gameplay
yet.

Global Effect: Signs of Skorak : Roll 1d6 at the beginning of the first player's turn each round. On a roll of 1-3, each warcaster/warlock may upkeep one spell in play without spending a focus or fury point. On a roll of 4-6, each warcaster/warlock must spend two focus or fury points to upkeep each spell in play.


Bounty
Brawler : This week, a Protectorate of Menoth player scores one (1) additional League Point if he disables or destroys an enemy warjack, warbeast, or solo with a power attack.





My scenario encourages warjack play, so I'm thinking the
Flame Priestess herself is going to make an appearance,
along with the Avatar.

That with +25 points of mercs should make for a fine time.

Feora has a nice spell that isn't upkeep (Engines of Destruction),
and some fun interactions with warjacks (Blazing Effigy).

Even if I have to spend 2 focus to upkeep a spell, I don't
think it will break my focus usage.

Strategic Advantage
Treasury Surplus : This week, a Protectorate of Menoth player's army may exceed the point value of the game by 25 points if the army contains 25 or more points of mercenaries/minions.

My options here are Gorman, Hawke, Eiryss. Even though it's
perfectly acceptable to switch armies up in between games, I'll
go with Gorman for versatility.


So 500 points

Feora
Guardian
Crusader
Devout
Full Choir
Min. Zealots
Temple flameguard +2
TFG UA.

And at 775

EFeora
Crusader
Guardian
Redeemer
Covenant
Choir +1
Choir +1
Daughters
Holy Zealots +3
Monolith Bearer
Full TFG + UA
Gorman

Points go over because of my strategic advantage.

What are you planning to bring?

Malfred, are you sure you can swap factions between weeks?

I can't see anything that says you can't, but I'd love a link to where it says you can. I'm struggling to decide between Circle and Menoth, so this would be great.

Thanks.

It's a great ruling as it encourages players to try and start
different factions. It's also generous because if the meta
becomes heavily Khador one week (for example), then
if those players dislike the environment they can bring their
"alt factions" the following week.

It also encourages cross promotion of the two systems.
Suddenly there's a chance we can play against Hordes,
so perhaps we want to bring Hordes or Warmachine on
any given week. Eirys, Alten, for instance, will not
instantly become add ons.

That being said, I really liked sticking to one faction, but
the league was too long for that. It forced me to learn
how to play different casters and to try new things. I
just hope all the faction jumping doesn't lead to players
giving up on a particularly difficult army.

Thanks a lot Malfred.

Oh crap. I forgot to fit Rhupert!

Now what.
