Re: Unit Discussion,Who is better Cyprien or Drake?

I believe that Cyprien is overall better.

With stealth flying and 8 move, he can go wherever he wants, evade range, and get the first strike on melee figures. His Chilling touch makes up for lack of attack, and enables him to damage/kill two figures per turn. Life drain enhances his lifespan greatly, and 6 Life/4 Defense aid this as well. Cyprien's only main weakness is against soulborgs, as his Chilling Touch won't work and his attack isn't exceptional.

Drake has some situations where he's better, but not most of the time.
The ROTV one has no range and no fly-like ability, except for a one-space grapple. The SOTM version is a definite improvement though. He also has Thorian speed, has a fly-like ability, and toughness. However, the "flying" is only 4 spaces, and he cannot alone heal himself. Although his attack may be higher, he can only attack once per turn, putting himself at a disadvantage against squads. His ranged attack is nice, though it isn't anything abnormally good. On the subject of Drake's attack, 6 attack vs Q9's 7 defense (no modifiers) will average around .7 life of damage (.5x6 - .33x7).

Hah. BOTH of them would have a hard time dropping Q9 in one dice roll. Cyprien can't use Chill Touch, and Drake can't Thorian Speed past the Queglix Gun.

Re: Unit Discussion,Who is better Cyprien or Drake?

I'd have to go with Cyprien on this one because rats are his snacks. Drake + Rats= for the Srg.

Signatures. Hurray.

Actually, you can't Chilling Touch Rats, so they aren't Cyp's snacks.

Drake has a good chance of killing rats, but is tied down by them. Cyp can't do much versus rats, but he isn't tied down by them.

Rats. The 'Reavers don't help this argument much, other then mobility on Cyp's part(but overall Strength on Drake's).

The Rats themselves may not be, but, while Drake is tied down by them, Cyprien can go looking for other things to make his snacks.

Disenfranchising all the Eltahale fans should be a crime.
