Otonashi - The Vydar Ninja

[Gomolka]

Tonight we received yet another great unit card preview from Wave 8. They just seem to be getting better and better. I am thoroughly satisfied with the recent addition of units to Heroscape.



Isamu v2!
In fact, I actually like Otonashi much more than I like Isamu as a filler. Also, now we have more choices for low cost fillers for our armies that can actually fit into a certain army style, and can work against certain armies. I'm not sure exactly which units fall into the tricky category that would give her an advantage over Isamu yet, however a move of 10 is surely nothing to overlook. Also, a defense of 3 gives her a much greater chance of survival that Isamu's mere 1 Defense.

Although we already have a similar unit at the same point cost, I still believe that Otonashi is a great addition to Heroscape, especially Vydar!

For reference, here is a list of units that have a Tricky Personality, and units that have a Wild Personality:

Well, some of the new elves are Tricky. I like her better because she has more defense than Isamu.

[RageAngel]

More elf synergy. (I think many of them are tricky).

So who's wild?

10 pts and Vydar, but not sure I like the low attack and lack of a ninja-esque defense ability.

I love it. Potential 10 move and 4 attack. And only ten points. Good-bye Isamu, Hello Otonashi.

[Cavalier]

Beat me to it! I'm liking what I see.

[cowmaster13]

I love it!
I still dot have isamu for a filler but im now just going to wait and get this

The gruts - blade, heavy, arrow

Marro - Stingers, Drudge, Drones and Warriors. Me-Burq-Sa

Jotun

Tarn Vikings

Ornak, Swog Rider

That's all I can think of right now.

P.S. The tank, Ne-Gok-Sa is tricky, FYI

[RageAngel]

Wild:

Arrow Gruts
Swog Rider

Sudema?

Wish we could look that up somewhere. Like a wiki. Oh well, someone will make a book eventually and it will be indexed.

I think Otonashi will be more consistent than Isamu, but Isamu has greater potential. The choice is nice.

[Gomolka]

Guilty McCreech, Valgaurd and the Highland Warriors are all Wild, I believe.

I can make an ongoing list of Wild Units in the original post, as well as tricky units.

"Filler" just got a whole lot more fun. I like her.

And I like her "Personality" orientation. I feel like it makes her a better character.

Well done, WotC.

Add in the Deathstalkers, Marrden Hounds, and Braxas to the earlier posts and we've managed to list all the Wild perosnalities. (Oh, add the Dzu-Teh also).
