Despite what I said above, I agree with you about bringing three sqauds of minions, just pointing out that if Atlaga dies their could be problems. |

In a lot of cases, though, I'm going to pull Atlaga out early anyway. Bolt of Witherwood is a lot more valuable at the beginning of a battle than at the end. I can see myself putting round 2 OM 1 on Atlaga, and taking a shot at whatever the lynchpin opposing hero is. Sure, this exposes Atlaga a bit, but if my opponent is concentrating on Atlaga, then I can probably bring 6+ minions into the middle of the map (beyond any rat screen) before he goes down, and they can work from there even if they lose the move bonus. Much like Raelin, Atlaga can earn his value simply by getting targeted and brought down. |

If someone tries to take him down, no problem; just get your minions into the game. Perhaps, but a good opponent is not going to worry too much about Witherwood unless it's a matter of choosing between two good options on where to move or attack. |

Aforementioned Minions of Utgar Variants: Minions x2 - 220 4th Mass x4 - 280 -------------------- 500 Points, 22 Hexes, Record: 4-1 Minions x2 - 220 Marro Stingers x4 - 240 Marcu Isamu Otonashi ? -------------------- 500 Points, 21 Hexes, Record: Tourney winner? Minions x3 - 330 Johnny "Shotgun" Sullivan - 65 James Murphy - 75 Guilty McCreech - 30 ------------------------------ 500 Points, 12 Hexes, Record: Ollie 3-1 Minions x2 - 220 Runa - 120 Airborne Elite - 110 Marro Warriors - 50 ------------------------------- 500 Points, 15 Hexes, Record: Killercactus 4-0 --------------------------------------------------- In reference to the 420 point Minions x3 and Atlaga core, what about Kumiko as your 'answer' to Deathreavers? Minions of Utgar x3 - 330 Atlaga - 90 Kumiko - 80 --------------------------- 500 Points, 11 Hexes Personally, I think I'd prefer Deathreavers x2 as I seriously doubt that Kumiko will be able to kill off 80 points worth (i.e. 8 ) Deathreavers before she goes down. Anyways, the Kumiko variant army above is at least one army where she is actually viable, if not spectacular. EDIT: Killercactus already suggested this idea. ------------------------------------- Other Potentially Strong Minions of Utgar Variants: Minions x2 - 220 Atlaga - 90 Airborne Elite - 110 Deathreavers x2 - 80 ----------------------- 500 Points, 19 Hexes The Deathreavers hold glyphs and tie up enemy forces to enable the Minions to advance and engage. When the Airborne Elite drop, they snipe from height and range while under Minion protection. Minions x2 - 220 Atlaga - 90 Zelrig - 185 ----------------------- 495 Points, 9 Hexes Zelrig bombs ranged commons clumped up in their start zone. Minions are glorified clean-up and hero-killers. Atlaga is either the insurance policy against Braxas or the final end-game clean-up figure. |

Re: The Book of Minions of Utgar
By the way, I've officially named that army "Runa's Finest Hour".

How can it be her finest hour if she didn't hit Mitonsoul? PS. - Feel free to refresh my memory, since it's been a while since I read that BR. |

Re: The Book of Minions of Utgar
I find that it's best to use minions when the map resembles a pancake house.

Re: The Book of Minions of Utgar
Probably my favorite squad in Hexes in Texas this year I used 3 squads of them with Atlaga and went 4-1 (losing my last match to the winner of the tournament) and while I did face both Q9 and Raelin (not at the same time) neither were a problem.

Re: The Book of Minions of Utgar
What else was in your army? Any range?
