Hello u got a question about bastiladons light heaven does it need casting value becaus3 i read somewhere is magical and it needs casting value?Also does lord kroak can cast 4 spells on the Hero phase?
Hi, For the bastiladon's light heaven, is just an ability on his Searing Beam. When you use the searing beam, if you target a unit of Chaos Daemons, the damage characteristic will be 3 rather than 2. For lord Kroak, he can indeed cast 4 spells during the hero phase.
Keep in mind though that in matched play those have to be four different spells which makes him considerably weaker.
One quick question, can Comets call D3 hits be put all in one unit or do you have to target separate units ?
So wait a minute... match play is the "build an army based on points" system. It's my understanding that is when Lord Kroak does use his Celestial Deliverance as written in the book. And tbh, he should have a reduced point cost when he cannot be played as written. That is an imposed handicap and should be adjusted accordingly. There are only two spells in the game: Arcane Bolt and Mystic Shield that are universal. Then he gets his Celestial Deliverance, then what? There is an unused spell.
Likely the language, points or changes to the rules of 1 in the GHB2 hopefully address the issue of kroaks signature spell being lackluster in matched play.
Arcane Bolt, Mystic Shield, Celestial Deliverance and Comet's Call. Four spells. If you want to use all your spell spots you have to use each one once. And yes, that sucks.
In Matched play you can use his Celestial Deliverance spell up to three times. It is in Pitched Battles that he is restricted to using it just once.
Matched play and pitched battles are the same thing. There are only 2 play styles. Open and Matched. Pitch battles are a part of match play. so the rule of 1 applies everywhere except for open play (which allows infinite summons etc etc as well)
