You're right, I had them copy-pasted the wrong way around.

I say mv or guard.
as to the players they are there to die. The team is the important thing.an ag4 guard leaper is golden. You use him till he dies. In fact l am saying guard.

Odds of rolling +MA on another skill-roll: 3/36 => 1/12

Odds of rolling another double for guard: 5/36 (OK, its actually 6/36 => 1/6, but if you get 6+6 you take +ST).

So: you're more likely to get guard elsewhere, than +MA. So take the +MA. :wink:

Yes, but what do your maths say about getting another AG4 leaper. A 2+ to put a guard 2 squares away is pretty darn good...

Just having more Guard on the team is good. You don't need to get cute with him, although the fact that you can is obvs a bonus.

Cheers, guys.

I'm definitely going to go for the Krox (almost finished painting up the mini), will give the Catcher some more thought but increasingly leaning towards Guard.
