Well, I guess that counts.

I'm guessing that he'll have a special attack (though, that's not much of an assumption - lots of figures get special attacks nowadays). I'm not sure why; I've just gotten a Q10 vibe about this guy ever since the first D3 announcement. Maybe something along the lines of Kumiko, but big and scary?

A multi-attack would be nice, but when I think of "juggernaut" I imagine a huge attack. Maybe if his attack is a lot of dice, then he'll be required to not use it twice in a row. Kind of like having to pace yourself.

I still feel the Siege will have something like such.
When a Warforged you control receives enough wounds to be destroyed within 5 clear spaces of Siege roll the 20 sided die. If you roll 1 - 7 nothing happens and the warforged is destroyed. If an 8 or higher is rolled then Siege and the wargorged change places and the attacking figure and the attacking figure ends its turn.

I figure with that, warforged resolve, and some above average attack, he will be around 140 or 150.

They said he has only one power and it is a new mechanic.

Huh. Guess I missed that somewhere in the last 3,300 posts!

I'm really digging all of the new mechanics that are coming out. Let's see, in the last few releases, we've already explored hero-hero bonding, moving opponents' figures, non-LOS attacks (although that one's not exactly new), anti-special attack powers...I'm stumped in regard to what else the design team can come up with (and happily so)!

So did I. I'm a little sad at the idea of a Warforged unit without WARFORGED RESOLVE. I know its uncreative of me, but I love that ability as a thematic toughness.

Oh well, I guess I'll just have to be content with new awesome.

Perhaps theGuru "forgot" to tell us he has Warforged Resolve? I know I'm probably just fooling myself, but one can hope....

[Robotech Master]

Yeah, Grungebob said he has 1 power, and Guru said Siege and Evar both have a similar new mechanic.

So whatever power Siege has, we can use it as a base to guess at what Evar might do.

Yeah, I doubt theGuru made that mistake, and I'm sure there was consideration behind the decision to keep Resolve off the new guy's card, so we'll see what came out of it. I generally trust the design team. They really only let me down the one time, so as long as the new Warforged isn't DW7K, everything should be fine.
