Writer's Block: Back to School

[Error: unknown template qotd]Reading the "view answers" page for this is as predictable is at is boring.

"OMG! I want to go to HOGWARTS or SUNNYDALE HIGH because it would be all special and magickal and I wouldn't just be some extra who gets killed by Death Eaters or vampires at all!"

I was happy going to high school where I went. I had a pretty great HS experience. I don't think I need to muck it up by going to a new one infested with monsters.

Naval is still around, actually, and has been made easier to use but harder to gain an advantage from. You can now declare a naval invasion if you have even one more naval card than your opponent - no longer are entirely naval armies required - but, while you do get the first action as the attacker, that action has to be performed by a naval card in your army. So nothing out of your hand, and most of your OMG HUGE ranged attacks are on non-naval Tsuruchi. Oh, and Ranged Attacks no longer require you to bow as their default, but they also don't seem to be combinable any more.

I hear the 'kensai' trait will let you attach two weapons as of the next expansion, but I've not seen a rulebook to confirm that.

That's kinda cool, and it makes sense. I think they introduced the Ranged attack change while I was still in, toward the end. Yay! Spearmen suck less now!

I heard that Terrains might be going away. Any truth to that?

Nope. They're still here, though they can take effect immediately now, rather than waiting until a separate "Terrain Resolution" step in combat. Formations are gone, but that's not exactly surprising - they were an awkward fit in the first place, I think.

Yeah, I remember formations leaving. They were a nice idea, but not practical in the long run.
