The Book of Emperor Andask
 

Character Bio:
Emperor Andask is the rightful heir to the throne of Ostrivick, a remote, vicious region of Valhalla. The royal line of Ostrivick is deep in the thrall of its long-time advisor, General Valkrill, and for Emperor Andask more so then any of his predecessors. When General Valkrill began his mad quest for a Wellspring, Emperor Andask devoted all the resources of Ostrivick to aiding him, which has now afforded him the position as one of Valkrill's closest commanders. Wielding the object known as the Orb of Vengeance, a weapon his ancestors had long kept locked away, Andask drives his minions into a mad frenzy, making them even more reckless and deadly then before.

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

Orb of Vengeance Aura looks really cool. :) Also, bargain Taelord anyone?

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

If you play on just attacking in melee, sure.

Several melee units like him, in fact...

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

Q on "Orb of Vengeance Aura may only be used once per turn."
I assume this means double attackers as well as squads only get to use once? How about bonding, although I think technically both the squad and bonding hero count as separate turns.

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

Double attackers, squads, etc. can only use Andask's Orb of Vengeance Aura once per turn. If a squad bonds, both the bonding hero and one squad figure can use the aura, because the hero is taking a separate turn.

Note that Kurrok + Elementals, Thralls, and Alastair MacDirk (w/Overextend Attack) can use the aura more than once since each figure takes a turn separately.

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

And what about Omegacron's special bonding ? How many tirns are played ?

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

And this is what I get for skim-reading - didn't notice either of those. :) Still looks cool, though.

We have a tournament in the Northwest this Saturday and there are a couple of builds that I know of that will use some of the heroes from this wave. Will the links to the PDF's be provided soon?

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

I used Andask with Shieldsmiths in a few games during Online Heroscape Season 16. I found he provided a similar amount of extra dice to what Taelord would have, but provided them at generally more useful times. I was also able to use him to make a couple of critical ranged shots that Taelord couldn't have been used for at all.

He's no Raelin, but he's a solid cheerleader for high-attack melee. I'd say he's a significantly better figure than Taelord; he's got way fewer armies in which he's useful, but he's much more likely to be worth the cost in the builds that he does help.

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

Einar Imperium... do they get plus one dice for one attack on each of the three figures or just plus one for one of their 6 attacks?

I was thinking an
Emperor Andask
Empress Kiova
3x EI's build.
and just want to make sure I am clear on how it works.

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

By my reading of it, you only get the boost to your attack once for all 3 imperium.

Re: The Book of Emperor Andask
 

So of 6 attacks only one would be boosted?
