Hush Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I have confidence in every single horde. Don't make your opinions before you've seen what our men and women on the streets can do. I don't think anyone is questioning the ability of the scareactors, I think we were just taken back by a few of the costumes revealed...probably not what we all expected or envisioned. After all these years, I leave my final opinions after I see everything for myself... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnNathan Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 From what I saw they where marching and chanting thrusting there spears in the air!! I'm guessing they will march in the middle if a group of people and them scatter And attack!! It would be cool for them to do a Little fighting with the spears!!

Keosilver Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I think the costumes allow a lot of freedom of movements. However, those costumes look like what they use in Cirque Du Soleil Ka. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wTX16zqyDE#t=09m29s Here they are when they assassinate a king and queen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 The costumes are quite hot, but they do allow much freedom of movement. I believe at least some of the Warriors come from a dance background, due to having the required body type. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HA! we are getting our own Disney zone I guess it will be fine, I was pretty pissed but that is because of the Clowns zone we ain't getting, are all the Warriors male? I guess after a zone like 7 where the guys had the sins, I guess this year the girls are going to have their warriors lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CinemaOfTheDead Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 It's fun when they do formation it was fun getting the chase but the scareactors are really good just the suck-y costume is the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Or massive...lol. I bet the guy during EP who made the mistake of trying to block their path would tell you quite well that their size doesn't matter as much as their muscle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perse Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I got to watch the Warriors for a few minutes last night. I agree with what everyone has said about how it seemed they needed more scareactors in the street. When I walked over I only knew there were people over there because I saw an Iniquitus (which looked super cool). I think the up-side to this is that they blended so well into the crowd, from my few minutes of watching them they basically had a 100% success rate in their scares. They did a really good job of not letting their target see them until just the right moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voorhees Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Going into the event, I was not too excited about the warrior legion, based on the description and the costume. But I will say that they are an extremely intimidating group! They march down the street chanting in their formation and swinging their blades and then - BAM - they dispese and scare the crap out of people. I do wish that every warrior was given a weapon as the blades really help complete the costume. I have spent the most time watching the warriors, just based on timing and rotation of the hordes, and I will say they are amazing! I also got a unique experience as I was eating in Louie's on Saturday night when they (along with several other members of other hordes) bombarded the restaurant and went from table to table intimidating those trying to eat. I loved it! I also caught them in Sting Alley and they were also excellent fitting into the spaces and jumping out with their loud grunts. Very effective - keep up the great work, guys! As a side note, I liked this legion so much that I became one of them on the Horror Unearthed game! Not that I'm helping too much yet, but we are in second place! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbad556 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I actually enjoyed watching the Warriors for a bit last night. The whole freezing and then dispersing into the crowd was awesome to watch and some of them were really into it, going to lengths such as crawling on the ground which seemed to get a quite a few people. I'd only expect this group to get better with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDW Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I was very impressed with the tenacity of this group. They are very forceful. I had to jump out of there way multiple times when they are marching in formation. The time I saw them in CP, they were very good at disappearing into the crowd and then double teaming someone.

LV-426 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) okay, I saw these guys in the flesh, great energy. they were pretty good at marching and acting though, I liked the actors. BUT... I still do not understand what these costumes have to do with Halloween, or Halloween Horror Nights, or anything, These costumes could be used during the day and it wouldn't really scare anyone, I am talking about the costumes not the actors, they were really good at scaring people from the energy they had alone. I saw them, I liked the actors, I Still do not understand the concept behind these costumes, makes no sense to me, I mean, it is okay but, I would have liked to see something darker, scarier, they should have give them masks or something. Monster masks would have worked pretty well, that's just what I think Edited September 28, 2012 by Mr. Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Well, they don't have monster masks because they're not monsters. HHN has engaged in more than one unusual concept for horror over the years. What matters is how they pull it off and how well they manage to scare you. Whether or not their costumes are monstrous or grotesque enough shouldn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troiandan Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I've had the least interaction thus far this year from this legion and the beasts. I need to work on my timing and patience a little more, since I really want to catch what sounds like an amazing crew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
