Minor nitpick: would Mathilde's Attacks all count as Magical, TT wise, given Blessed Weapon-Blessed Hands?

Good catch. Adding it now.

And does her Greatsword mean ASL, or since it wasn't mentioned does her training and ability put her past that?

By tabletop rules yes, but it doesn't fit with how the weapon has been characterized thus far. I might ding her initiative for it, though.

And can the Torc stack with Dread Aspect, TT-wise or regular rolling wise?

Neither.
 
Hmm, do you mean to vote for the options you X'd? In that case, you'd want to copy and paste them so they're not in a quote.
...urgh. I'd like to blame time away from quests and/or using phone, but I don't think I can legitimately do so.
Cheers, anyway.

So, if we don't take the mages, where do they end up? And if we do take them, does that merely mean they're in the assault forces, or that we try and take them with us if/when we infiltrate?

If current set-up disallows training and finding trainers, is the 'learn axe-ing' option just a legacy option?

If you don't take them they'll be marching with the Expedition, same as always. If you do take them, you'll make use of them however is appropriate. You don't know how that will be because you haven't even gotten within fifty miles of Und-Uzgar yet.

The similarity between greatswording and axing allows for it, since it's not learning anything new, just adapting what you already know a little.
 
Edited to bring Max. Get some Dispel support on the front lines, some General Magic support, and help him get the favor he needs for his apprenticing.

Now all we need is a magic greatsword to reach true murderblender status.
 
But yeah, tactically speaking, Mathilde is caster kryptonite. She's got just the right set of skills to just show up after the enemy caster gets set up, scream in and wreck their face in melee, and then ride off into the shadows, surviving the panicked "SHOOT THAT TINY WIZARD NOW" reaction as a result.

The best Dispel--after all--is a bullet to the brainpan and a sword to the neck.

Shadow Wizards are just huge assholes like that. A Shadow Wizard cross trained as a Witch Hunter? It's the kind of unfair combination of skills that makes a Named Character what they are.

Don't forget her causing Fear effects on all your units as she rides away.

Ehhh. I mean, technically, yeah, but realistically speaking any commander worth their salt sticks their wizard with a nasty bodyguard unit for basically that reason, and Mathilde isn't that dangerous. She lacks the requisite offensive power to assure a quick kill, and the role she fulfils isn't unknown. Most generalist army lists will have something of that nature as march-blockers or war machine hunters.

So what your saying is that we should get a really nice killy sword to push us over the edge to that point.
