The Book of Tagawa Samurai
The Book of Tagawa Samurai
Zanafor's Discovery - Collection 4 - "Lawmen and Samurai" If you cannot see the Army Card graphic, check Hasbro's Unit Page for stats and special powers, plus "character biography" and other non-game unit info. Character Bio: Even though their reputations as formidable assassins preceded their arrival in Valhalla, the Tagawa Samurai have proven to be even faster, more ferocious and deadly than their adversaries expected. These disciplined warriors believe that their victims' spirits deserve the highest honor and are united with their own, adding to their collective strength. In addition to this honored code of offense, the Tagawa, much like their Izumi bothers, are artful masters of the riposte: the lightning-quick, deadly-accurate counterstrike. The Tagawa Samurai go into battle expecting death; ironically, it is this very mindset that has been the heart of the Samurai code for centuries and which has allowed them many victories.

I've used the Tagawa in my past few games and have had incredible luck. The last game they destroyed the following figures before going down to Kaemon Awa: Finn, 1xKnights of Weston, and Krug! After killing the knights and Finn with counterstrikes, I then went and got the high ground on Krug and destroyed him without even getting attacked back! Tagawas rule! I'd say the best samurai squad.

I love the Tagawa, but they never work for me. They die just as fast as they get markers and thus can never start doing the heavy damage.

My exprience is much the same. In the Taro build I play, the samurai were gunned down WAY to quickly by 4th Mass. They die to range VERY easily. If you could get them in base it's AWESOME, but you have to play VERY smart to get the close.
They make a great unit to protect your backfield though, if you have one. If an opposing figure goes after Taelord/Raelin/Taro, the Tagawa can provide some excellent offensive defense. Adam |
I am thinking next game of taking these guys after sending Thorgrim and Finn out to get killed (wow.. that sounds really mean.)
That is 280 points to get a squad that starts at 4 attack and had 6 defense and has the potential to get up to 7 attack. The 220 points left over should be able to get me some good range figures to force a rush into the samurai's waiting swords. |

If my first Tagawa Samurai destroys an opponent's figure does my second Samurai immediately get the benefit of the Experience Marker or does that kick in when I use them the next time?
I wanted to get the benefit immediately but I felt sorry for my brother so I let it go until the next round. :twisted: |

I just finished a game which came down my Deathwalker 8000 and a lone Tagawa vs. four Einar Imperium, Marcus and five Roman Legionnaires.
The birdmen managed to take out the Deathwalker, but they all died in the effort. With a fully empowered, 6-attack, 5-defense counterstriking Japanese monster, I went hunting for Romans. Ran down Marcus and the lone Roman he was leading, and killed them. Went after the remaining squad of Legionnaires and killed three of them before falling to a spear thrust from the last Roman, the last man standing. That's why I play Heroscape. |
the viking bros only give thier special to UH so dont bother wasting it on squads...uniqie or not...
