Undead cost

Post by Old Man Draco »

The regeneration skill has changed. Now the players with undead teams or a vamp SP are complaining that they cost to much, because the skills weekend and the price remains the same! Any ideas on this?

Tell them to play a different team than undead if they have a problem with this.

Undead are a very good team even with Reg tweaked. The player prizes are fine the way they are (for some players even a bit cheap; mummies come to mind)

in my experience, undead players have moaned in EVERY league that their players cost too much, even with improved regeneration. as it stands now it's better balanced.

they all tend to stop moaning about regenerate when it saves their star mummy from death though...

this is a sweeping generalisation though and won't apply to everyone ;)

And curse it when he actually dies.

Undead were too good in leagues with 2+ regen, this way its a bit more balanced.

If you ask every player is too expansive.... like goblins... I pay 40k for a thing any 50k lineman can crush easily..!!....

Or ask Welves if the wardancer isn't too expansive... and ask any other race coach if he (the wardancer) isn't too cheap....

For what I saw Undead haven't any trouble with money....

Undead players are actually pretty cheapwhen you think about it. Mummies should cost 10k more, ghouls are great for their cost, and the team gets really cheap linemen. Only wights are too expensive, but that's to counter the other players who are actually too cheap. Besides, all blitzers in all teams are too expensive, so wights are not the exception.

All in all, undeads are actually undercost if anything.

Yeah, 30K for linefodder you don't ever need to worry about. Foul, get them killed by Ogres, whatever, They're a very inexpensive way to go.

Usually Undead players don't complain about a rough game where EVRYBODY on their side regenerates (and does so even when only badly hurt)! Then suddenly it's just the "advantage" for that weak 4+ roll! :o

You can stick the boot into a mummy and it keeps coming back! :pissed:

You on the other hand maybe had to save a dead starblitzer in turn 2 and won't have the apo around for the rest of your game (oh, the PO mummy just inflicted the 6th cas of the day! Great! :( )!!!!

IMO if you don't like this regeneration rule stop playing undead!! Oh, and yes, it's tough that the ghouls can't use an apo! I would chance that as well, especially for the new Nerco team!

Used to be if they regen'd once they wouldn't do it again. Kill them twice and they were dead.

I agree that regenerate was far too powerful before it changed, tell him too shut up whinging.
