Title: Do you use Seven Trumpet Sounders and if so - how?
Post by: Reth on August 02, 2017, 07:11:30 PM: Hi again,

need to start a similar thread to my last one here.

Question is: Do you use Seven Trumpet Sounders and if so - how? Since it will barely get any initiative one will not be able to play a trumpet enhancement at all.
Even more there aren't very many Trumpet enhancements - even less silver ones. Trumpet Judgements would make this card strong - but lacking of ini makes playing this card at that angel nearly impossible.

Or is there any other "trick" which makes this card useful?

I assume it will maybe get strengthened by further sets?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and tips.

Sure, but this makes 7th Seal not very valuable ATM too!

It's also an easy way to win a battle against demons.

Sure it gets them out but cannot use it itself - so they are maybe still negatable. Even more it can copy the SA of these enhancements only if its in battle with another Hero of appropriate brigade.

How that?

Other than that, a pretty terrible Hero I'm shocked to have seen so much of at Natz!

Post by: Xonathan on August 08, 2017, 09:05:28 PM: lol I also used seven trumpet sounders at nats and again they were amazing with Angel sword. Having naz, rbd, and HHI really slowed a lot of people down while I was grabbing Seventh trumpet and trumpet judgement from reserve and winning battles. Again this was T2
