I like it very much. Hope to see more batreps here in the future.Daihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978439841611727387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5660965914860481092.post-11482900580307843092016-05-15T21:14:24.688+01:002016-05-15T21:14:24.688+01:00Sadly not new, but a project that has been occupyi...Sadly not new, but a project that has been occupying me for a couple of years now.

After having a game and reading up on the net it seems that the flaw with Frostgrave is money talks. If you get lucky in your after game rolling and accumulate a decent amount of wealth you can buy your way to domination. In addition it seems that the 'shooty' wizards rule and a lot of the more subtle yet clever spells get lost beneath the firepower. I like the premise I'm just finding it terribly unbalanced and random so far – too much random and not enough player influence.The Dark Templarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03051984305736707874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5660965914860481092.post-36365785979633493462016-05-15T10:17:18.884+01:002016-05-15T10:17:18.884+01:00I get the feeling that you are somewhat underwhelm...I get the feeling that you are somewhat underwhelmed, but I suppose as the war band levels up and you have invested more in them it should take off?
