Either way it doesn't seem relevant, as I can think of literally no situation in which anyone would ever want to do that.
I agree with that, but we Editors have to worry about potential future uses as well.

No, his intent was not to hurt himself with his special.

Either way it doesn't seem relevant, as I can think of literally no situation in which anyone would ever want to do that.
For what it's worth:

1-life Tetraites engaged and in a choke point of the map. I know my opponent's next OM is on something far away, and/or something that is definitely not going to attack Tetraites. My next OM is on Krug/Jotun/TKN/whatever, right behind Tetraites. By using Bludgeoning Strike to kill Tetraites, I open up the path for my big bruiser.

Not a common situation, but not impossible.

I was in a match recently where Parmino repeatedly attacked my One life Disciplined Hydra to free up space for the sacred band to surround my opponent's remaining figure.

No, it doesn't. A figure is not allowed to attack itself and nothing in this power breaks that rule.

Nevermind. You meant attacking another figure and then damaging himself. Yeah, that would work as written.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Though -as worded- he could potentially wound himself (even if there are very few and specific situations this would occur) that was not the intention for the special. He wants the blood of his foes, not his own. Do I need to adjust the card wording? Or can we assume that that will not be factored into the review?

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

Not a judge, but I wouldn't worry about it, SirH. It will be tested appropriately and the power can be cleaned up in editing if needed.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

No worries. As long as we know the intent it's fine.

I love the simple design. Looks solid and useful. The difference in general and personality is ok with me.

Re: Soldiers of Valhalla - nominations and discussion

One question: is Tetraites a real historical person? If so, what about him suggests Wild and Utgar?

Yes he is a real historical figure. He was one of the Gladiators during the times of the colesium and was known for his defeat of the great Prudes. As for his specific history, from everything I've read, documentation was scarce but they know that he was a well known gladiator that wore very little armor when he fought...and he would have an open bare chest. To me this suggests he was very confident in himself and almost a taunt at his opponents and a symbol of his superiority by being able to defeat them with little protection. From what we know of him, I felt Utgar was an appropriate general to summon him.

Hmmm.... I feel a little cagey with the idea of having anyone real be summoned by the evil general on so little evidence.... I'm kind of thinking a name change may be a good idea.... then again, it could be anyone called Tetraites, and there's nothing about the historical Priscus to suggest an inspiration power or that he wrestled without a weapon (in fact, I believe that one is straight up wrong), so.....

EDIT: Btw, any chance we may see any playtests for this guy on your channel? That'd be pretty cool.

Works for me, so I vote to review.
