So use the "corrected" DW8K and DW9K cards available in the Gallery - if anyone feels like complaining about it (I think it was an obvious mistake, also) then play with the better cards.

Even corrected I don't want to play them. They are point drains.

LOL! And Reaper still won't use them!

Newb.
A few of Gorillinators are positioned differently on the bases too. I think it's the one walking with his knuckles, he sits a little off to the side instead of in the middle of the base... not really a army card print error, but still :P

Glory to the Many.

I had always assumed the "destoyed" on Sudema's card was a well-known typo.

How is he that bad? he can survive ranged attacks like crazy, and still has solid attack for non-explosions, maybe you're only using him to detonate? He can be used to attack for a while, then detonate later.

Also, he keeps enemy units away from him as effectively as deadeye does (but not 10 spaces), since they dont want to get in his range

His special ability is a rapid fire blast. I too, have often thought this is some kind of mistake.
I've always thought that maybe the designers decided chain gun DW was the cooler-looking of the two soulborg designs. And maybe they didn't know if HS would be successful, so they chose the chaingun version to represent the master set DW9K - inconsistencies be damned.

But then the game thrives and actually makes it to Orm's Return. So they have to do with the lesser of the cool designs and make the rocket launcher arm figure the rapid fire DW. What other explanation could there be for so obvious a SNAFU? BTW, I still use the figure's represented on the original cards when drafting and playing them.


Well, that's the little scenario I have payed out in my head, anyways...

Ask ninthdoc how he felt the other night when DFlynSqrl took a shot at him with Deadeye Dan from the top of a castle. It was the first order marker of the first round and DW7K was done for.

Thanks for the replies (and some were even on-topic).

I was looking for major errors, but the EOV tidbit was also nice to know.

Save those original Sentinel 5 and Sudema "destoy" cards. They'll be worth thousands some day . . . . .

Except that they're corrected the wrong way. The abilities/stats should be swapped, not the pictures. I always liked the idea that the Deathwalker series gets bigger and beefier as the numbers go up. Those cards just ruin the concept for me.

I only drink the blood of my enemies, and occasionally a strawberry yoohoo.
