You put in Dragons' Lair...but forgot the dragon

I don't think you really need the Lairs anyway... or were you using those INSTEAD of Rime?

[Rayzer730]

Why Potion of Vigor over Purify? You can use Purify to give a bonus with Brom's react.

Also, maybe consider Gnarled Club for the stun hate also? It is a shield so it doesn't suck up other item slots and it give 2 AC. Or if you're going with a rank 3 Cleric, you can just throw in Scepter of Life to keep those Dwarves alive.

Lair I would say run 2 or 3 of since it pumps up Brom's checks in addition to dropping the dragon in, but only run them if you plan on including Dragonkin also....since I notice you didn't run them in your list.

Why Potion of Vigor over Purify? You can use Purify to give a bonus with Brom's react.

He has two Purifies at least, and I suppose the potion is there to gobbled by Rimefang assuming he plans on putting him back in the list?

Well with Aida's MRP i don't really need to run the graveyard hate. There is nothing else that has really scared me.

Now what to fill that place...

[Aarrow76]

1x Brom Frostbeard
2x Focus
3x Amber Gargoyle

How is Focus working for you? I'd rather start the Profit/Wall and have a chance to pump my bigger characters' AC... During my playtesting, I found that most times by the time a character is spent and receiving a wound for Brom to reduce & ready, the tempo isn't that big of a deal. However, Focus' interation with Grimur & Mentor is cool- just unreliable...

characters 19
3x Surge
3x Atone
1x Kohn Peacehand
3x Vex Duntan
1x Glorgrim
1x Fridgeir
1x Rimefang
3x Sentinal Gargoyle
2x Dragons Lair
1x Grimur

How is Surge/Sentinal working out? It looks like you could use a Helt, Sky, and even Arla. I'd definitely replace one of them with Bludgeon. You can spend him up, stun strike +4 w/Pwrattk and then push him forward, or with Purify/Vigor you could stun strike again!

Actions 18
3x Merciless Strike
3x Kors Patience
3x Withering Gaze
3x Banish the wound
3x Purify
3x Cure Lethal Wounds

Is the Merciless strike/Dragon stun combo worth all the extra cards? It seems pretty difficult to consistently pull off...

Items 7
2x Ring of the Savant
3x potion of Vigor
2x Gnarled Staff

Bardiche is a nice addition, especially for Fridgeir & Bludgeon!

When did Morghen get banned? Ring of the Savant? I would think these would take precedence over Aida! Aida!??

[FlippyDoo]

Isnt Cure Lethal Wounds a bit too much for a 3 of in this deck considering only the warlord and one more character can cast it?

[Aarrow76]

Removing/Reducing all wounds to a character and then readying a Stonefist, Surge, or Bludgeon is extremely powerful. I play Brom and have no problem holding extra CLW's in my hand. Casting it 6 times via Ring of the Savant= Win.


On a side note, I'd like to point out how much Bludgeon is a Champion in Brom!
In a recent game I was stuck with 4 characters including a ready bludgeon in the front rank facing some serious opposition, I dropped Hurl, they killed my spent Stonefist, I stunned up Hurl for more stability, then Purify- unstun hurl, +7/+5 atk on Bludgeon- he swings for 3 wounds taking out my opponents remaining dangerous strikes... Now my opponent's warlord is safe in rank 3 behind two elves in rank two and 4 more in rank 1... Bludgeon stuns to take out a 2nd ranker, use Hod's to unstun, kill the other and spend up his warlord... So I spend up Brom and drop two Sky's behind him, Ring back purify!... Dead Warlord... Just... wow... Bludgeon was able to strike +7/+5/+7/+7/+7 for a total of six wounds.

[FlippyDoo]

I never knew Brom had the potential to be that awesome. WOW.

[Darguth]

I never knew Brom had the potential to be that awesome. WOW.

Expect the potential for supreme awesomeness to be had from all Dwarves all the time.
