-Strategy, Tactics and Tips-

• Man-Bat's Fighting for Control can be good or bad, depending on the situation. If you can manage to get Man-Bat surrounded once he has several wounds, you can maximize his potential attacks. However, failing the roll and being unable to move, prevents Man-Bat from moving figures and potentially causing auto wounds.
• Man-Bat's Claw Carry can be used to support your team or to disrupt the enemy team by moving key figures away from a group, by putting that figure at a height disadvantage, or by placing them in a spot surrounded by your other figures forcing them to take leaving engagements.
• Teaming Man-Bat with Frankenstein allows Man-Bat to move Frankenstein easier due to Man-Bat's flying, and can set up Frankenstein's Creature Command to take double turns.
