Strength is useful for me when they line up a hurl to knock a hero off a horse. Heroic strength up to str 6 and now you cannot be knocked off your mount. Cheers -Mitchell
Love that Jay thinks March is vital and that Heroic strike is overrated... No wonder this man is taking the Queensland tournament scene by storm! 😂 Thanks for the feature, boys! -Richard
Enjoyed the video boys! Personally love heroic march, especially with my corsairs charging up and getting 10 or more extra throwing daggers in when the enemy thought they might be out of range or setbup for traps. Shout out to charles, local BC stud!
In the past few weeks I've been rethinking Heroic Strength. In my thinking I would happily spend two might to turn two fours into two fives to get two wounds but if I call a Heroic Strength before the combat then I won't need to. Basically if +1 Strength would give you +1 to wound then a Heroic Strength is a good idea with a chance to get +2 to wound instead. Also if it can take you from a 6/4+ to a straight 6 it might be worth it. With a Two Hand Weapon it's even better, taking a 5/3 to 5. Say Dwalin or Grimbold (Strength 4 mini that can pierce with a 2H) v a Ringwraith or other D8 model. A Heroic Strength with a Piercing Strike get's you at least from 5/3 to just 5 with a potential to be just 4. For GIl Galad it is an even better payoff since you can just get might back anyway and make killing that hero even easier.
Great video! Love that you are adding something new to the MESBG youtube scene with this more analytic approach. I am sure it must be more challenging than regular BRs (even though those are awesome too!), but it is really cool to see that you found a more or less missing content area, and you are doing really good work at this👍🏻😊
i use heroic strength vs monsters pretty regularly because it works both offensively and defensively. usually monsters are rending your heroes cause its easier to kill you, but with strength up your str and defence are close to equal and now if you win you wound with the str bonus and if you lose its harder for them to wound you.
Frankly heroic move is so powerful compared to every other application (and ubiquitous to every hero) that it makes much of all other applications feel like a rule bloat. I would rather like to see these moved into once per game skills than might points spenders.
@@MtnGoatGaming I love it too. I just found that it wasnt as well applied that I had hoped for. Its is difficult to form a nuanced opinion over a comment without devolving into a giant text block. I think you got my idea ! Thanks for this reply and the video discussion.

Not only hurl but also when a foot hero gets charged by cav. with Str.6 they don't get knock down .

That’s a great shout man - again, situationally it can be clutch.
Finding those moments is the challenge.

Just found your channel after after versing Jay at Bywater. What a gentlemen! Great video for a newer player, thanks.
Jay is a true gentleman.
Glad you enjoyed the video

So is ship name "Mountain Goat West" or "Into the Mountain Goat"?
Second one sounds NSFW 😮
Ships are better when goats are on it I feel.

That’s an interesting point bro!
I personally love the mind games with spending resources and having multiple chances of calling actions.
