Re: [WABlist] Celt Shaman and Mixed Weapons

 

Pretty useless in an army where most players will make the units Leadership 10 with rank bonuses.... since the shaman cannot learn to ride in the cavalry...
The old unmodified LD 10 was much more effective... now the character is only useful in later rounds once the ranks have thinned, or in a unit with less ranks... all in all Hatred is another place where the rules have been 'fixed' that were not entirely broken.... I'd have preferred that hatred still have the unmodified 10- but only one use..... pretty much Stubborn and Hatred are sucky now...
