How high can Jotun throw?

On Jotun's card, it says figures do not recieve throwing damage if they land on a ledge higher than Jotun's height; so he can obviously throw figures up. But how many levels high can he throw a figure? I.E: Can he throw a figure up to the top level of a two story castle, wich is 22 stories high after you add the battalion?

The only limit on how high (or low) Jotun can throw another figure is that he must have a clear line of sight on that figure where it lands. Battlements could be an issue in your example, but as long as Jotun can see the figure where it lands, it's okay.

Yes, "battlement" is what I meant. Not "battalion" Thanks for the input!

You know, I read right past your misnomer and didn't even blink - just read it as "battlement"

Take care

Yah, me too... when I was writing it. I guess it would take on a whole new meaning if there was an entire battalion sitting up there.

i mean think about it, if you threw a rat, how many times your body height could you throw it upwards? I'd say a lot.

I don't know about rats, but I can throw a Deathreaver pretty high.

I do think it would be a little harder to throw a Zettian, wouldn't you?

Jotun looks like he's been going to the gym aswell-either that or lifting up alot of trees, so that would help him! Now about throwing the Deathreavers-would you say hold it by the tail or body or head when you throw?

But they are a large hunk of metal plating. (where do you think the high defense comes from?) I can just see Jotun trying to throw a Zettian up onto the battlements. He throws, looks up "What is that shiiny thiii- crash- the Zettian's remains clatter to the ground leaving Jotun with the question of what he was doing before he recieved this horrible head ache.
