Title: Wizard Warbands vs Heritor Crews- Amyone tried it?
Post by: The Red Graf on 01 March 2018, 02:56:30 AM
Like it says on the tin, I'm curious if anyone has tried this and how did it go?

I have played around with it a little, and it seems to work fine for the most part. Though I would be interested in hearing what anyone else has done.

I think the larger issue is the different warband construction rules which potentially gives a big advantage to Wizards.

 :D I tried not to...I really did.
its fab using GA warbands and heritor wiz app warden combos.
I love this whole frostgrave world.

I think you'd have to do a few things to level it out
make the progression in levels equal for the wiz/apprentice and the heretor /warden.
 limit the warbands like the GA crew, 4 specialists and 4 regular soldiers
or use the same soldier types for both sides (GA crew arent as strong as the FG crew)
200 gold to go back and re hire dead specialists,
no just buying magic weapons.
introduce  embed magic to the heritors band or loose it for the wizard,

But I must admit it would be a fun game to try out

I think that you would have to use the same Warband construction rules for both sides and I think the FGA rules are better balanced. If nothing else I have been kicking around using Wizard's as non player forces in FGA.
