    Bombs are only viable on high WIP units (read “Neema“), since the odds are too bad otherwise. In my oppinion, there is no question whether to take mates over bombs, since bombs barely fit onto any unit properly.

    Also, there seem to be people more making fun of tohaa players whining now than actual tohaa players that are whining.
    Our faction is far more that just Symbiomates and they are still going to be viable. I welcome this change. :)

    Yeah, this thread is showing that we Tohaa players don't really care much.
    The Tohaa haters on the other hand...

    Hey guys I didn't post for that at all. I didn't hate Tohaa at all and did NOT come here to see anyone sad. I just didn't enjoy playing against them. I don't know of many that did enjoy playing against them with the Symbiomates. Even the guys playing them stopped because no one would play against them.

    Hahaha, I can't wait to see what the new excuse of Tohaa haters will be now that they can't blame symbiomates for being outplayed.

    I get that, and you obviously didn't come in here salivating with your blue bendy straws waiting to suck up artichoke tears.

    This change doesn't bother me at all. I haven't used Symbiomates in years because they don't entertain me. Symbiobombs is where it's at.

    They just managed to take a braindead mechanic and make it brainless. What if you had to declare mates before rolls, expending the mate in the process? They could have left the mate mechanic as is with that change, and it would have actually encouraged decision making.

    Their rationale for the change is a load of malarkey, because "making sure that there is a risk associated with the reward of a successful roll" isn't even true here, the risk is that the normal outcome of the roll happens to you (you take a wound after getting shot.)

    I mean it will be balanced, if it is not obligatory

    That seems to point to your fire vulnerability getting unfucked so the TAG and HI don't get kicked in the dick for no reason. Seems like you're getting some buffs in return.

    We'll find something, don't you worry :wink:

    All joking aside, I might actually play my Tohaa now instead of having them gather dust in a shelf

    I was actually thinking in a way this is kind of a buff for LI units with symbiomates, it lets you fail the guts check now.

    Yeah, pretty disgusting from Those Guys.

    I just bought into Tohaa and I'm pretty chill with the change, especially as it's probably a slight boost to gorgos and my ariadnan furs.

    I look forward to all your creative efforts! Both in the blame game and as a fellow artichoke!

    My goal is to get people to complain about my chaska somehow because I love chaska to death.

    Don't agree with the nerf, I think SymbioMates are only a issue for those who don't really know how to play around them. On the tabletop I don't mind but it does feel like a slight dumbing down of the game, VERY slightly. It'd be nice if the Kaeltars got changed, either a very small point drop on the SymbioMate profile (like 1 point) or adding CoC to the Bomb Profile.

    At the moment I also don't feel like Tohaa has picked up anything from Spiral Corps worth using, although some models have yet to be spoiled as far as I know. Feels a bit bad to get nothing but nerfs when Tohaa weren't setting the world on fire and I have no interest in Spiral Corps but we'll see how things go when the full update drops. :]

    unfortunate that they don't seem to do much for the Gorgos any more.
