Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
Giving Flying to an army, limited or not, is going to break scenarios. No matter how bad it is or how hard it is to set up, in certain places it will always be broken-good. That's already true with Flying ranged units, of course, and this would open up much more.

On the other hand, if she ever wants to see play outside of those scenarios, she has to be good enough to have general use. The tight range makes her really, really map-dependent: she needs to have a place where the initial slower development and positioning ultimately speeds things up. The more the figures are allowed to fly, the more useful she is. But yeah, flying ranged units is dangerous business, and escalates very quickly.

Really, this sort of thing is probably too radical to work its way into official 'Scape. She'd probably have to be so weak as to only be useful in certain scenarios--the ones she breaks.
