Corrections:
Sustained Assault: Some other versions of Sustained Assault received the same update, while others did not. (ex: Obara Sand was updated, but Victarion Greyjoy was not)
It was a big pleasure to record this, buddy!
Thank you very much for the video. I've been a Baratheon player since I first encountered the faction. I play both Renly and Stannis armies, and I find the recent changes to be very beneficial for both Renly and Stannis, particularly the significant improvement to Stannis. However, with these changes, Baratheon now feels more like an elite faction. Previously, the only elite aspect I could consider was the Wardens; everything else seemed of lower quality compared to other armies. In recent games, I've been deploying expensive units with good mobility, having a movement of 5, 6 in some cases, and always bringing Wardens, which are currently the slowest. I've noticed that the previous strategy of cavalry, spearmen, and archers doesn't work against Baratheon as it did before.
I wanted to specifically comment on Renly 2, who has Boisterous Charisma, Precision, and Stalwart. This combination is much stronger than generally considered, as it counters most armies that rely on their cards to win. Have you tried that version of Renly? At the moment, it's my favorite, as it forces opponents to discard many cards that they cannot use against Renly or entirely focus on him.
Thanks for the comment. I’ve actually just released a new battle report where I play as Renly Lord Paramount. Give it a look!
Baratheons!!! Let's gooooo!
Best you tube channel covering the best faction.
Nice vid ! Now I am even more afraid of baras. 😂
Well done! Just ordered a Baratheon starter!
Great faction choice!
Do you mind please clarifying your understanding of Bryan Farring and vulnerable tokens? My understanding is that Bryan's reroll would happen after the vulnerable token is expended because the attacker is the active player: "• If both players have an effect that would cause a die to be re-rolled, the player whose turn it is will first declare and utilize their effects. Once the new results have been generated, their opponent may opt to utilize their effects that would force re-rolls"
My understanding is that all rerolls occur before condition tokens are expended. So there’s no situation in which an attack or defense roll is made, a weakened/vulnerable token is expended, and then dice are rerolled again. That’s not something I’ve ever seen happen. I can’t cite the relevant clause of the rulebook (if one exists), but I’ve never played it that way or heard of it being played that way. So in the case of Bryen Farring, his rerolls happen before the vulnerable token would be rolled. This is why he wasn’t taken very often before. His rerolls would lose value when faced with a Vulnerable token.
Thanks for the response. I believe there are no special rules for tokens and that they follow the same rules as every other effect (as quoted). I think the misunderstanding comes from the fact that the overwhelmingly most common reroll/token interaction is charging and weakened where you do the token after the charge reroll. This of course follows the standard rule Active player then Second Player. Having said that, it certainly won't be the first time I've missed a rule so will ask around for clarification. Funnily enough I'm planning to run Bryen tonight in some stag knights, mainly because the importance of taking Crowns has shot up due to Kings men and Queen's men also being in the list.
