I think they are overated in the following sense. Most people seem to agree that in Heroscape someone is better with more units than fewer units. There are exceptions but this generally is true. The reason is that the more units one has, the lesser the odds of losing because of a few terrible rolls. Since reavers are so cheap and tie up many start zone spaces, they significantly reduce the number of primary attack units you can have which thereby make it more likely that a few bad rolls can beat you.
