hey all!
i recently bought assassin's creed: revelations.

after playing i came up with some rules for lotr assassins:

25 pts warrior choice

f s d a w c
3/3+ 4 3 1 1 3

wargear: poisoned throwing daggers, sword or poisoned dagger

optional:
replace throwing daggers with bow (poisoned arrows) 5pts
take armour (+1 defence) 7pts

special rules:
rooftop master (you need to roll a 5+ instead of 6 at climbing and jumping rolls)

i've tried those rules several times and they work well. but i'm not quite sure about the point value yet.....


assassin lord
90 pts. command choise.

f s d a w c m/w/f
4/3+ 4 4 2 2 4 1/1/3

wargear: armour, poisoned blade, poisoned throwing daggers

special rules:
smoke bobms
stalk unseen
rooftop master*
run fast*

I believe the Hasharin rules would work better, it's quite similar;



Or Dalamyr, the Fleet Master.



Both are well trained assassins. They are far more balanced, your character is highly overpowered and the rules are hard to understand.

well... i posted those rules so other people can help me improve them...

OK

1: Horribly under coasted, needs to be 70-80pts, probably more
2: This is a Warrior Choice right? So, I can take several in a five hundred point list and wipe the enemy out in several turns.
3: Um....you really should just use the Fleet Master, he's far more suited and balanced.

He should be a hero otherwise he's way too expensive,

as a normal warrior he should only cost around 20 points.

Stalk unseen works like an elven cloak?

well... at first they were 21 points...... but bloodreaper said they were horribly under coasted....

Yes, the first profile would allow only a few of them to remove the enemy army in a few turns.

editted again.

i hope it's a bit better.....

That assassin would get murdered really quick .

Unless you are playing some kind of weird scenario.

How about this rule? A Assassin can choose to either have the "run rule" or equip armour.

Equipping armour gives plus 1 defence, Having the run rule allows him to move 8"
