Synergy Benefits Received
- Death Knights of Valkrill: Unholy Bonding
As a medium Hero with the Relentless personality, the Death Knights of Valkrill may take a turn with Ataraxis before taking a turn themselves.

Synergy Benefits Imposed
- Van Nessing: Divine Mission
When Van Nessing takes a turn using the "X" Order Marker with his Divine Mission special power, he rolls 2 additional attack dice against Undead figures, including Ataraxis.

Rulings and Clarifications:
Quote:
Q: If Ataraxis is on a Unique Hero's Army Card, and that Unique Hero is killed by a Zombie of Morrindan, what happens first, Zombies Rise Again, or the resurrection from Nanobot Virus Phylactery?
A: Zombies Rise Again, due to the "immediately" in the power.

Q: If Ataraxis is on a Unique Hero's Army Card, and that Unique Hero also has an Ebon Armor on its Army Card, when that Unique Hero dies what happens first the resurrection from Eternal War or the resurrection from Nanobot Virus Phylactery?
A: It is a roll-off to determine which happens first.

Q: If Ataraxis is on a Unique Hero's Army Card due to Nanobot Virus Phylactery, and that Unique Hero dies from something other than a normal attack, special attack, or leaving engagement attack, or Ataraxis cannot be placed, what happens to Ataraxis?
A: Ataraxis remains on that Unique Hero's Army Card. If that Unique Hero is resurrected, Ataraxis may replace the figure the next time it dies.

Q: If Ataraxis is hit by Shurrak is dies due to falling damage from Knockback, can Nanobot Virus Phylactery be used?
A: No. The damage is due to the fall, not from the attack or special attack.

Q: Can Ataraxis be revived by the Glyph of Sturla while on the Army Card of a Unique Hero?
A: Yes. Ataraxis is destroyed and can be revived normally. Obviously Nanobot Virus Phylatery cannot be used to return Ataraxis to the battlefield afterward because she is already on the battlefield.

The figure used for this unit is a Starfinder Battles figure from the Galactic Villains set. The model name is Space Goblin Zaperator.

Synergy Benefits Received

Nottingham Brigand: Rogue Hero Bonding
Torin: Evil Eye Protection

Synergy Benefits Offered
Expendable Rabble:
Horned Skull Brutes
Bugbear Basher
Spoiler Alert!
Otonashi: Tricky Speed 4

Suggested R&C:
Quote:
Q: Does Environmental Suit protect against falling damage?
A: No, falling damage is not a terrain effect.

Q: How does Taunt interact with Tactical Switch?
A: If Ziggo in engaged with a Warforged Soldier, that Warforged could attempt to target another figure but then get redirected to Ziggo. In that case, that Warforged could only Tactical Switch with Ziggo. If a Warforged Soldier moves into engagement with Tactical Switch, Taunt would have no effect because Ziggo is not a legal target.

Q: What happens if, after Taunt is successful, Ziggo could no longer be targeted, such as becoming protected by Smoke Powder?
A: The attacking figure could change targets to any other legal target and would not suffer the attack dice penalty from Taunt.

Vraiment pas fan du mort vivant, il me paraît assez faible pour 160pts, peu impactant. Le goblin pareil, pas si résistant que ça mais ça reste 60pts.

Pour l'instant je trouve pas ouf leurs figurines starfinder, du moins ce qu'ils en font. En espérant que le playtest va les changer

Il faut vraiment pas sous-estimer les pouvoirs de déplacement de figurines.
Arashara Goshiri dans le genre a subit d'énormes modifications de contrainte et de coût après les playtests, en se rendant compte qu'elle était bien plus puissante que prévue.
Entre ça et sa possibilité de revenir sur le terrain... je pense qu'il y a un gros potentiel !

Une nouvelle carte armée en playtest.
Un outsider qui fonctionnera avec les "children of the dark star" (carte armée en page 3 de ce sujet) ;o)

Q: How does Clamber work exactly?
A: Treat elevation increases of one or two tiles as flat terrain, except that both sides of Gräbermund's base must end on the same level. Elevation increases of three or more tiles must be treated normally.

Q: Can you roll for Swallow Whole even if the defending figure would receive enough wounds to be destroyed?
A: Yes. Swallow Whole triggers after defense dice are rolled and before wounds are inflicted. If Swallow Whole triggers, the figure is destroyed before the wounds are inflicted.

Q: If Gräbermund attacks Isamu and he Vanishes, can Swallow Whole trigger even though Isamu doesn't roll defense?
A: No. Swallow Whole requires the defending figure roll defense dice, and Vanish prevents defense dice from being rolled. Note, however, that units roll zero defense dice, such as Venoc Vipers, are still considered to have rolled defense dice, so Swallow Whole can affect them.

Q: If Gräbermund attacks a Deathreaver with a normal attack and succeeds at Swallow Whole, can the Deathreavers still use Scatter?
A: Yes. The Deathreaver still rolled defense dice.

Q: If Gräbermund attacks a Bloodburst Thrall and succeeds at Swallow Whole, does the Bloodburst Thrall rupture before it is swallowed?
A: No. Swallow Whole is part of the attack. If Swallow Whole occurs, no wounds are inflicted, instead the figure is destroyed.

Ziggo a subit une mise à jour :

De même pour Amberhive Queen (ancienne version), ils ont enlevé son boost global à tout les insectes, je trouve que sans ça, elle deviens fade et cela enlève énormément de synergie possible. J'imagine que s'ils l'ont fait c'est que c'étais trop fort, mais cette perte totale de synergie est triste.

pour rappel elle s ejoue avec les pitites abeilles:

SACRIFICIAL STING SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 1. Attack 4.
When attacking a figure within 4 clear sight spaces of an Insect Hero you control, an Amberhive Protector may use Sacrificial Sting Special Attack. If the defending figure receives any wounds from Sacrificial Sting Special Special Attack, destroy the attacking Amberhive Protector.

Amberhive Protectors may fly over water without stopping, pass over figures without becoming engaged, and fly over obstacles such as ruins. When an Amberhive Protector starts to fly, if she is engaged, she will take any leaving engagement attacks.

Personnellement je ne trouvais aucun intérêt au frenzied swarm pour les abeilles qui sont bien plus bien efficaces avec leur attaque spéciale.
Il est vrai que c'est dommage de perdre les synergies de ce pouvoir avec les deux sortes de fourmis. Neutral

Quote:
Q: If the Hero chosen by Hive-Mind Integration is Mind Shackled, does Byrikon still get the initiative bonus if that Hero is within 5 clear sight spaces of Byrikon?
A: Yes. Even if Byrikon or the chosen Hero end up in different armies, the Byrikon owner can gain the initiative boost from Hive-Mind Integration as long as that other Hero is within 5 clear sight spaces of Byrikon. That player gains +2 per order marker on either army card, regardless of who owns the order markers.

Byrikon the hiveless : je suis pas convaincu par la carte. Je trouve qu'ils se sont compliqués la vie pour par grand chose dans ses pouvoirs. Quitte à jouer un tour supplémentaire T1, je préfère encore y aller avec Ornak qui m'assure de déclencher son pouvoir et qui m'autorise plus de possibilités. À voir sur les tests ce que ça dit.

C'Rik : J'adore cette carte. Elle pourra ouvrir de nouvelle stratégies intéressantes... seulement si les "Explorer" seront développés dans le futur (car actuellement il n'en existe pas).

Altais of the deep : le pouvoir peut être sympa, dans des circonstances exceptionnels ça peut entraîner une attaque sur 7 figurines. Par contre je ne comprends pas pourquoi il fait 170 points, j'ai l'impression que c'est beaucoup pour lui, non ?
