Nemesis Crown

[Red Purger]

Quite disappointed that this item is so easy to lose. At max level you have to win a battle once every three turns or it just disappears? That on top of all of the other drawbacks hardly make holding on to it worth anything. I get that they wanted to avoid making it super OP, but for all the trouble you have to go through to get it to level 5 I think the least they could have done was to change it to be like the Sword of Khaine, in that once it reaches it's max rank, you can't take it off and it's permanently bound to the character who picked it up.

Eh I honestly like it as is. The crown is thirsty and if you stop feeding it why not fk off.

Edit: Thinking about it a bit more, it could be really cool where if you don't fight a battle in a few turns at max lv instead of leaving it has serious debuffs that will affect you regardless of faction. Heavy attrition to the army, faction wide upkeep increase and or income penalties. That way you would be forced to keep it while it cripples you for not fighting enough.

I like this idea

I've "found" the Nemesis Crown twice, fought two fairly easy AUTO Resolve Battles then opted for the Gold and Replenishment option.

I'm lazy and don't want to put the effort into learning how to use it.

The buff you get for denying the crown seem better in most cases than actually using it.

Honestly, I don't think it's worth it. There're only a few factions that can even profit from it, like Changeling, Skarbrand where you mostly don't care for the malus it gives you, like the Sword of Khaine. I mostly just seal it for the gold.

I also like this idea. Having it deal attrition damage to simulate sacrificing your own soldiers to keep it "fed".

calm down karen

[Aiden_2010]

if everyone already hates you (e.g. skaven, vampire counts), i don't see any reason not to get it. i can get a pretty powerful economy by the time i max it out, so upkeep isn't really an issue

[Big Moustache]

I seal it away every time and good riddance. I already have a gazillion other blue and purple items to choose from. Same with sword of kaine. Perhaps for Malus Darkblade campaign, these items can bring some rp value
