Victory Conditions
Victory Condition | Iyanden 4.2 | White Scars |
1. Blitz | NO | no |
2. Break their sprit | NO | NO |
3. Defend the Flag | NO | YES |
4. Take and Hold | No | no |
5. They Shall not Pass | NO | no |
The list feel right with the 1:2 ratio and is the best way for the future of the list.
The wraith blades are best suit in vampires or coming through a portal. Although lacking a FF limited their use.
The animated construct rule didn’t come into play again…I believe this is not need but, other may think differently..
