So, lindwurm is only a postman of crowns？

[千仞万渊]

Dont really know what's the combat strategy for lindwurm, or in another wors, what's their feature？

Highly restricted action(only 6 ap I guess). Bad status, low melee skills and dedence, even lose the intiative advantage for AI. Can be captued by net. Dont have any counter solution to spear.

Maybe their only strong point is that if they manage to land a hit, it will have great effeciency against armor. Added with acid blood.

But actually you dont really need armor when battle against lindwurm. You only need 2 spears, few net and many polearm(long axe is good). Without armor high initiative guarentees 2 turns of continuous focused fire in a row. But dont worry lindwurm must stand still and use a whole turn to attack, so they wont survive until they manage to attack. Then hold your spear wall let another get in your ambush, kill them one by one, without armor you even dont need to care about their acid bloos.

Wondering why this creature should be released, it's only a concept enemy without dedicated balenxing.

Head attacks at 2tile range I think.

Single lindwurm isn't a problem. Running into pack of 3 or 4 is different story.

I never tried to net it. But if it can be netted then I agree it should be changed.

I also think they're rather weak for such a rare encounter and badass looking enemy.

Fair challenge, but you won't risk losing bros if your squad is already lvl 11.

They kinda lost the opportunity to create a real fearsome boss enemy, in a game where late game challenges are all about being vastly outnumbered.

Yes, it shouldnot be netted, but even so it is still abit too weak, no counter solution to spear, it can only do nothong but wait spear wall to cancel itself.

Spearwall? Seems like that would take awhile to do much to them, in which case fatigue becomes an issue.

Spearwall is as much a hard counter to them as it is to any unshielded melee enemy.

Key question: Does spearwall avoid the acid?

No, if do enought damage to hp, spearwall is an normal free attack(about 90%efficiency )

Spearwall is not used to do damage, but to keep enemy at bay so I can do focused fire without being hit.

Spearwall can push back the wurm body but not the tail.

[Azov]

I think lindwurm should be immune to spear pushback, let the spear hit when it comes in range but no pushback, if anything, would be pushed back it's the bro himself, so just make it immune.

Em...Yes, tail cant be pushed back, that's because it doesnt have ZOC, so when it gets into your zone you can just move away freely.

To make brother who perform spearwall to be pushes back is a good idea. lindwurm is that huge to a mec in loading sceeen though :).

either that or no one gets pushed, lindwurm breaches your zone of control whether your spearwall hits or misses.
