he does?
where?
if ye dont wanna use his special...his normal attk is good for that....

Not nearly as good as Nilfheim's. Q9 can only reliably wound figures with defense up to 5 with his normal attack of 4. Nilf's 6, though, can handle everybody currently in print pretty well.

true
though he's got shorter range, less defense but more life..and than there's that lousy 5 points that unbalances the standard 400-500 points armies... while not much it does end up limiting what squads ye can pull with him..those 5 points an mean difference b/t being able to pull krav's or 4th mass or 'corps etc

You wouldn't be complaining if we had more 5s. Right now there are only 15 (including Marvel) out of 134 cards. That's only 11%. They should bump it closer to 20% and we'd be good. That's only one or two units each wave. Since we've already seen Sujoah at 185, I'll be happy with at least one in Wave 8.

Also, please try to use some punctuation and the shift key.

so he could kill up to 9 figures in one turn (assuming he attacks a double spaced adjacent figure who is surrounded and that he throws an enemy figure to their death)

yeah I see why I voted Juton

He can actually kill more than 9 if he wild swings the hive.


Whoa, totally didn't realize how old this thread is.

Raknar's Vision is my favorite single release so far from Hasbro. I liked Orm's too, but this set seemed to make up for the mistakes they made with those 5 heroes.

Q9 is probably the most versatile since he will likely take down just about anything you throw him at, but I like Nilfheim more than any other hero in the game. He's got a very powerful and versatile special attack, and the ability to smack heroes down effectively as well. And 6 flying to boot. Theracus is fun too depending on the map. Part of me really wants to win a tournament with Jotun, just because it'd be hilariously fun.

You guys are lucky that you can even find Raknar's Vision.

Q9 I think, is the most versatile he can take out almost all kinds of figures and he wont have an early death.

I say Theracus because he's so awesome for his point value.

I just bought it last week online at Funagaingames.com. I had been wanting it for awhile so when I found it, I snapped it up.

In terms of versatility, I'd have to go with Nilfheim. I think Q9's the best, but in my mind, Nilf can handle a wider range of opponents than Q9.

Not if you're engaged with more than one figure, not to mention even though Ice Shard becomes less useful, his normal attack is 6.

Yeah, but my parents don't like me buying stuff from the internet.
