Heroscaper 101's bestiary

[flameslayer93]

Technically, you could draft 8 copies of the Swog Rider, get 8 cards for them, and then get +8 defense for the Bow Gruts... I would recommend changing the power to something along the lines of Necroblade’s suggestions. And then playtesting the frak out of them.

If I manage to Mindshackle my opponent's Wise Oak, can I use him to summon my opponent's unsummoned Defenders of Oak?
No. Summon the Defenders of Oak states that you can attempt to summon the Defenders of Oak"....if they are in your army..." since the Defenders of Oak are in your opponent's army, you would not be allowed to summon them.

  powers on that Army Card if the order marker is turned over and they are not on the board.

Rock Sweep Special Attack
Range 1 Attack 6.
Choose a figure to attack. Any figures adjacent to both Ironbark Protector and the chosen figure are also affected by Rock Sweep Special Attack. Roll attack dice once for all affected figures. Each figure rolls defense dice separately.

Knockback 15
When a small or medium figure rolls defense dice and is not destroyed by a normal or special attack from Ironbark Protector, immediately roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 15 or higher, you may Knockback that figure by placing it on any empty space within 5 clear sight spaces of Ironbark Protector. The space must be on the same level as or lower than its current location. A figure moved by Knockback never takes any leaving engagement attack. A non-flying figure moved lower by Knockback can recieve any falling damage that may apply.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

Rock Sweep Special Attack: Who is affected?
Q: Which figures are affected by Ironbark Protector’s Rock Sweep Special Attack?
A: Besides the figure chosen for the attack, only figures that are adjacent to both Ironbark Protector and that chosen figure are also affected and have to roll defense dice. Figures that are adjacent to only Ironbark Protector or only the chosen figure are not affected.

Knockback 15: Clear path
Q: If I roll successfully for Knockback 15, does there have to be a clear path to the space I want to put the defending figure?
A: Ironbark Protector only has to be able to see the figure (within 5 clear sight spaces) to place it there. Other figures or obstacles do not prevent placement, but remember that the chosen space cannot be a higher level than the defending figure's original space.were standing on the first level, he would need to toss someone up above level 11 (or on the top of level 11) in order to negate any throwing damage.

Throw 15
After moving and before attacking, choose one small or medium non-flying figure adjacent to Ancient Forest Golem. Roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 15 or higher, you may throw the figure by placing it on any empty space within 6 spaces of Ancient Forest Golem. The figure must land within clear sight of Ancient Forest Golem. After the figure is placed, roll the 20-sided die for throwing damage. If you roll an 12 or higher, the thrown figure receives 3 wounds. If the figure is thrown onto a level higher than the height of Ancient Forest Golem or onto water, do not roll for throwing damage. The thrown figure does not take any leaving engagement attacks.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

• - THROW 15 : Throwing Damage vs. Falling Damage
  Are figures that are thrown subject to Falling damage?
  No, throwing damage includes falling damage. You do not have to roll for falling damage separately.
  
  - THROW 15 : Affects of Terrain
  Do Slippery Ice or Heavy Snow tiles limit the distance you can throw a figure?
  No. Just count each space as one space.
  
  - THROW 15 : Throwing Above “the Height of Ancient Forest Golem”
  What does “the height of Ancient Forest Golem” mean?
  The "height of Ancient Forest Golem" is the level Ancient Forest Golem is on, plus his height of 10. For example, if Ancient Forest Golem were standing on the first level, he would need to toss someone up above level 11 (or on the top of level 11) in order to negate any throwing damage.
  
  - THROW 15 : “Non-Flying” Figures
  Ancient Forest Golem can only throw “non-flying” figures. If the wind glyph is in play and activated, or if Morsbane has negated the figure’s special powers, and figure cannot fly, are they considered “non-flying” figures and can Ancient Forest Golem throw them?
  Yes on both counts. Flying figures are considered non-flying once the wind glyph is activated. When Morsbane negates a figure’s flying ability, they are also considered “non-flying.”
