Yeah, I knew that, but you can't blame me for hoping for more Undead heroes

Welcome, feekona! And I'm having a blast! I believe that's extra dice. So you get some spare white dice (the new combined combat dice) a cool looking d20 (the one in the picture is translucent red), the banner bearer and a cloth bag. I'll verify contents tomorrow (didn't even think about it today, duh me. Too excited.) More info tomorrow.

No time to read, surely I'm duplicating....

I was told this is "the best wave to date" and that the guys are really really excited about thi one.

WAVE SIX

Squads
-3 samurai bowmen...Einar colors
-3 Kyries (look like Einar colors)
-3 banshees/ghosts of some sort...fantastic sculpts
-6 zombies....HELL YES zombies....look like they could be Utgar, but Jami Boced thinks they match Seduma pretty well too. unlcear whether it's two squads of three, one squad of six, three and some sort of extra figures (a spreading zombie plague?) or what....mysteries abound.
-4 Orc pike/spear/halberders...clearly Utgar

Heroes
-Kee-Mo-Shi....YES she is Utgar, YES she works well with Marros...awesome sculpt
-the prototype Einar-looking female Kyrie from way back when
-the protoype Utgar-looking female Kyrie, also from way back when.,but repainted from last we saw her.
-a dwarf....looks like Einar colors
-samurai hero....with a sword and bow

ah lol he does have a sword. sweetness. and it was a dwarf. niceness. so i guess einars really bringing in the big guns in this wave. awesome. but im still waiting for war elephants, tanks, siege weapons, and other huge engines of war. guess we'll have to wait for 6.5!

NEW PICS ON THE FLAG BEARER PAGE!!! SWEEEETNESS! THE KNIGHT LOOKS SO GOOD

[Teamski]

Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the photos guys. Those bearers are incredible. I was really worried about the path that Heroscape was taking with Wave 5, but this just spins my head around. The game just keeps looking better and better.......
