Hello, friends!
Today we'd like to tell you about the bandit deck, to show its strong sides and of course to share some interesting tricks that give us an advantage over the Berkana deck.
For the first sight Berkana’s advantage is obvious. Units look stronger, can wear more items, and the items themselves considerably increase your health and attack. But the bandit deck has some other advantages using which you can defeat a much stronger opponent.
The character who teaches us to use the bandit deck is Raylo — a previous but unsuccessful candidate for the mission in Frisia. What do we learn from him?
First of all, bandits are experts in teamwork.
Surprisingly, it’s the bandit deck where you can see the fighting spirit — when a definite bandit dies, others get stronger.
Secondly, what kind of bandit doesn’t use dirty tricks?
If in Berkana’s deck almost every unit is a mighty warrior, the bandits are mostly weak characters — or at least they look like that. But if you take a closer look you’ll see that things are not so simple.
Every bandit has a feature which helps to defeat even the strongest enemy — you only have to choose carefully who to fight. The slayer, for example, hides a poisonous dagger behind his back. It gives him a chance to destroy any enemy — if the slayer will manage to pierce his armour.
By the way, usual bandits can also use poison if you cast a proper effect on them.
Thirdly, bandits can easily outnumber the enemy.
There are a lot of cards in the deck that help to summon more than one unit per move. Really, what bandit will do the job alone? Besides, there are also Ambush cards in the deck. They let you add one more bandit on the battlefield in exchange for some health points of your commander.
In general, if almost all fighters in the Berkana deck prefer to act on their own, when you choose the bandit deck you can get a pretty good combination of units with a bunch of dirty but effective tricks.
Bandits can fill the battlefield practically in a flash and strengthen each other greatly. Their spearman is able to strike from his companions’ backs. This deck looks like a puzzle which can be rebuilt endlessly, and you will still find more and more variants.
Try to play with the bandit deck in the new demo, tell us about your impressions in the comments, follow us and add the game to the wishlist!
