These are really interesting, feels like a super clear mechanic with interesting choices on what you need to boost. And cool push-pull with building and defending lodges vs the cost of losing them
This is a really elegant design for a "policing" faction. I like it!
It seems like a faction where a bunch of different strats would show up for how to "build" your action engines, kind of like the different mole strats.
These guys are presented in a way that's really easy to follow, and helps me to theory craft some awesome ways to play them without even sitting down at the table. I think it leads to a lot of interesting strategies, like if loading most things into battle would increase the action economy going forward. One question, is it increasing a position on the track for "each hit" in battles, or for each battle?
I also wanted to ask the same question.
Moreover, do they need rule to build?
Each battle where they actually do a hit, so a 0-0 wouldn't count. Should have made that clearer! Also, rule is needed for building. I didn't think to clarify that.
But for the battle with the outcome 3:0, when they deal 3 hits, do they get 1 improvement, or 3 improvements?
from what I understand now, just the one! ;)
I think so also, but wanted to be 100% sure.
A 3-0 would only get 1 improvement. So long as one die is 1 or greater, you get 1 improvement.
