Hmmm...weren't we promised undead? This sounds undeadish to me...

Could be, but skeletons don't have the equipment necessary to "almost forget" anything.

Thats not all I've seen coming, sadly.

You say this like its a bad thing. I love uncommon/common heroes.

Ghouls? Shadows?

I should probably get back to work...

If it wasn't that it would be something else.....

From the home page:

"1 Common Ullar Squad who can swear loyalty to a new king each battle"

Nilfeim and Charos are "kings." Could there be synergy here?

Could be, we've been told that the Waves will have synergy with previous waves.

2XHero: Great point! When I read this, I wondered 'shouldn't they have said 'Generals?' But I don't think they'd make that kind of mistake...

That will be interesting if it does involved Charos and Nilfheim. I can't imagine it will boost either of them (they don't need it), but maybe the unit in question gets the boost depending on the King.

I'd argue that Charos is strong enough but could get boosted a little without being overpowered. Given that the squad is Ullar, maybe it's synergy with Ullar kings, and there is another Ullar king in the works?

The biggest surprise to me about this new set is the inclusion of 6 common heroes.

Since common heroes have 1 life, I've been trying to think of ways to make up for their frailty. Here's what I've got so far:

-Make them cheap filler units
-Give them very high defense or some other power (IE vanish) which increases their longevity
-Give them a 'rejected by death' like power which will allow you to bring back previously killed ones at the start of each round.
-Make them useful even in death (like the viking spirits)

Can anyone think of any others?

Maybe said unit inherits the abilities/specials of the King its swears loyalty too?
