I don't think this was already posted, but it looks like Thora's Vengence is now on the official Hasbro site. About time they updated that site huh! :roll:

I know you could see them in the army builder before, but now they appear with the others under "Characters"

Awesome. The next milestone will be the bios for RV, TT and TV. Then allow Malechi to make the bio sheets and my HS binder will be that much more thicker and cooler.
Thanks for the news update.

It's definitely nice to get the figure pictures. I was greedy and hoping for the Bios for Raknar and Thaelenk though.

we're all hoping for the bios of TT and RV but at least those who haven't yet got the figures (me) get to see close ups on them!

Why are the bios SO far behind?
If they have the bios already made, they are wasting product quality by not posting them.
If they don;t have them done, why aren't they done before they come out? Are they an afterthought that has to be created AFTER the release? If so, why would Khosumet's bio be SO far off his stats?
My guess is, they are already made, they just haven;t bothered putting them up. Either way, it adds up to Hasbro not supporting the product, since a significant minority of the game is the storyline, generals, etc.

I guess that Hasbro sees the bios as least important to be put out there!

Wow, I wasn't even aware they are still missing TT and RV bios as well. That's pretty sad. My guess is they are waiting to add those, along with TV all at one time. It would be nice if the bios were listed somewhere on the figures' packaging, or inside it somewhere. It's pretty evident little care goes into the bios, which is a shame consider they tell so much about the characters :?

...and they tell us a tiny bit about possible future fugures too!

I'm sorry, but this Warrior of Ashra is the bomb. Total leader and...those boots! She could kick my ass in those boots any day!

I'm liking the look of the Deathreavers! I didn't notice until i saw the close ups that they have red rat-type heads printed on their sides (as well as the utgar logo)!

Yeah, I really wish they'd get the bios up some time in the near future. I don't think they're half bleeped either though. If you read some of them they sound quite descriptive, despite some mispellings and such. They just need to proofread. And where the bios end, my stories begin. :o

I too am looking forward to the bios.

There are two reasons why I think the bios are a simple after thought and not too important in Hasbro's eyes. First off some of the bios don't even seem like they belong to the character they descibe when you look at that character's stats and abilities in game play. Khosumet is a prime example of this. The second reason I think they are an after thought is that they arn't even packaged with the actual characters, the only way to view them is to go online. It seems like Hasbro simply adds them to the website so the site gets more visits.

Too bad they don't take elements from the bios and include them in online comics on their site.

Too bad they dont update the Bios. I agree Markwars, it would be cool if they had some story we could follow along with that was consistent.

I enjoy the bios and have been waiting for wave 4.5's for quite some time. I am interested in Q9 and Jotun the most though.
I have also written a couple of stories but not knowing more about the chacters I can't do much with them.

The reason that the bios are sometimes inconsistent with the stats are because you're reading the Master Game stats, when sometimes the bio is referring to their Basic Game abilities.
Khosumet's "powerful shield," for instance, refers to his Defense of 6 in the basic game.

Actually the "powerful shield" in question is his 75 point cost. And it protects him from being drafted. ;)
