Hello. As you may know, as of 4.14 horrors come in big pack and not one by one. I was curious of the small print, so I did a bit of testing. What appear is : * the "call" spells (in battle) make appear a serving of horror, sans leader. All of the same type. * the "send" spells (ritual) send 1 horror leader, and then a serving of horror. Once again, all horror are of the same time, and the non-leader horror one cannot use their magic if they have some. In other word, "send horror" create 1 more horror than "call horror". (of course, it's not like you can substitue call by send in battle ...) Now, what do I call a serving ? Each horror type have a serving size, who is between 1 for regular horror to 10-14 for soultorn. I have experienced the following size : * most lesser horror come in serving to 2 to 5. I guess 1d4+1. The sampling is a bit small, so it's impossible to say if it's open ended. The lesser horror in question are horror mantis, brass claw horror,belly maw horror, float cat horror, spine membrane horror * soultorn come in pack of 10 to 14. (by the way, they regenerate now) * the "lesser horror" (the old dom3 one), as well as all non-lesser horror (regular "horror", defiler of dream, mind slime horror, gore tide horror) alway come alone in their serving (so 1 with call horror, 2 with send horror). Due to the increased number of horror, all horror spell are a lot more powerful now. In a twist of fate, the old lesser horror (who come alone or in pair) is probably the weakest one now, together with the belly maw horror. I am not sure that Send Horror is better than Send Lesser Horror either. Note that horror of different type can fight. So belly maw can attack soultorns, but soultorns never attack soultorns. Also note that, now that they come in pack, they are even more likely that at least one go after the caster. |

So Send Horror now sends two horrors instead of one to a target province? That seems like a sizeable boost. I guess being Blood 8 means it will be out of reach until there are armies in play that can actually deal with it, but it still seems pretty nasty. I'm currently playing Bogarus and just got the research to cast Send Lesser Horror so I guess I'll see how effective it is. I've been avoiding casting it due to the previous issues with attacking each other, but now it seems worth spamming. |
