Dice rolling etiquette
So I've discussed this with a few people, but I would like to hear all of your methods...

Re: The Book of the Mind Flayer Mastermind
Uhh, I was just re-reading over the Enslave power and it says ANY unique Hero figure. Nothing about it being an opponents unique hero figure. Does that mean I can use Enslave on my own unique heroes...

Re: The Book of the Mind Flayer Mastermind
Mean bugger, can paralyze a low defense squad by knocking off order markers. Ranged Enslave in addition to that attack lets them swing twice, one of them usually works. When he gets BOTH off at once...

Re: The Book of Black Wyrmling
Black wyrmlings sort of make the white wyrmlings irrelevant. While the whites can use their Special attack on larger figures, most will easily be able to defend against it without an issue. Blacks...

Re: The Book of Pelloth
While an inability to effect bigger figures hampers him a bit, he's a unique or high priced squad's worst nightmare. To be effective he NEEDS protection though, your opponent will happy lose a few...

Re: The Book of the Fen Hydra
Played against him enough times to haaaaaaate him. One isn't an issue, get even two wounds on him and you're fine. But Ornak and two of them...gets a little out of hand. Hydra is one of the VERY few...

Re: The Book of the Ogre Warhulk
I've seen him at work and overall, eh. Big life and low defense makes him squad fodder, and his wild swing will effect your own figures, making figure placement management more of an issue. His...

Re: The Book of the Wyvern
The wyvern is one of the few figures I think can benefit from multiple order markers in the first opening turns, his speed allows him to get at the opponents first advancing figured and carry them...

Re: The Book of Omnicron Snipers
One of my favorite squad figures. I'm notoriously unlucky, and I will usually roll between 1 and 2 skulls no matter how many dice i'm rolling with, so these guys help me out a lot. Taelord and...

Re: The Book of the Air Elemental
Easily the elemental that can be squeezed into almost any army, with a passive ability (meaning one that doesn't require order markers) that can shut down whole roads, they grind down fast mover...

Re: The Book of the Werewolf Lord
Played a bit with these guys already. Depending on who they hit it can get kinda crazy, but luckily an OM is required to activate the Moon Frenzy, otherwise the Badru would turn him into a mess!...

Re: The Book of Sujoah
Sujoah is one of my most favorite heroes in the game. I've tried bonding him with spiders and I'm honestly not a fan, I like to use Sujoah's speed, flying, and high life, as more of a hero assassin....
