If you really want to keep the flavor of Heroscape, that would be cheating.

Do most people leave the rock under Omegacron's right foot or remove the rock? The picture shown above has it still there. But the picture on the front page when the card was released shows it removed.

Both work fine, I'm just curious what others are doing.

Also a suggestion. When mounting Omegacron on the new base, I suggest the "boiling water bath" trick. Omegacron's body can easily be bent upward at the waist to keep him from staring at his toes.

As dok says, he'll fit on either, but I'm pretty sure I used a large double for him.

I kept the rock. Just easier to glue him down that way.

FWIW, I removed the rock... but you know that, since I gave you one of mine.

It doesn't affect his hitzones much, so it's really not a big deal.

It seems like it is pretty important whether he is a single- or double-spaced figure... Is there any official stance on this?

When using directed fire, can the 3 chosen figures move and attack? Or only attack?

Do what the card says


DIRECTED FIRE
Instead of attacking with Omegacron this turn, you may choose up to 3 unengaged Soulborg Squad figures you control who follow Jandar. Take a single turn with the chosen figures, during which the chosen figures may only attack. Omegacron must also have line of sight to any figure attacked using Directed Fire.

[wilabill1]

That's what I thought. Thanks for the clarification.

[Scytale]

When using Directed Fire, do the three chosen squad figures have to come from the same squad?

According to the direct wording of Directed Fire, no. You could, for example, attack with one Sniper and two Repulsors. But the wording "take a turn with" implies they must all be from the same squad, since taking a single turn with figures from multiple squads is not defined in Heroscape.
