Very solid group. Nothing too amazing, nothing unbalancing. "Axegrinders" is a fun name.

Very nice. That option to take a longer move if they don't bond would have been nice on some old figures, like the Knights.

Migol is sweeeeet, and with bonding, this is more than I dared to hope for from these little guys. Thanks Truth!

While I would rather have seen more Vikings than Dwarves, I must admit - Those Dwarves rock!
Nice twist on the bonding, by the way.

I love the Dwarves, I have been waiting for them for a long time. I like the fearless advantage ability.

It's great getting these previews - thanks Truth!

The dwarf hero looks solid, but isn't exciting, just because we've seen his special powers before. But it looks like he'll be very effective on the battlefield. One Shield Defense (with a 4 DEF) should mean he'll stick around a while, and Deadly Strike will let him do some damage.

The squad may become a new favorite. A 4-figure common squad with 6 Move (or bonding) and 4 ATK/4 DEF against many figures (3/3 the rest of the time), for 70 points. They seem as powerful as the Knights, but much more versatile.

Great job!

Yes! I have always wanted dwarves in Heroscape and the designers hit it right on the head! Great job design crew. Four packs for me.

Excellent hero and squad, Truth!

That's exactly what I imagined the dwarves would be. The survivability of Migol makes drafting multiple squads a good option. Looks like tons of fun to play; not competitive, maybe, but super fun! Units like these is where I think Heroscape lives.

Edit: Except for their squad move of 6(!).

So how do you pronounce his name?

My-Goal?
Me-Gaul?
Miggle?

This set will be awesome. First the Mohicans and Brave Arrow, then Tul-Bak-Ra and the Dividers, and now Migol and the Axegrinders. All of them are solid picks. I can't wait to see more.
