ODD ONES:
  • Ice Cold
    If Kira Jax uses Exploit Weakness on a Greater Ice Elemental, the water around the GIE will not be considered as normal ice.
    This can be useful if an Obsidian Guard or a Fire Elemental is on an iced water tile adjacent to the GIE.
    Thanks Anitar: It's also useful if you want to avoid falling damage adjacent to said elemental. Which is just complicated enough that it will never be necessary.
  • Water Weakness (Obsidians Guards) / Negative Element (Fire Elemental)
    Unuseful, because it helps the enemy.
  • Eternal Heartbreak
    If Kira uses Exploit Weakness on Sonya and kills Cyprien on the same turn, Sonya does not receive the two wounds.

One update: since Kira Jax does not follow Vydar, she can't benefit from Agent Skahen's Cover Fire.


As 30 point filler, she gives Guilty a run for his money.

You should clarify that the attack bonus only applies when she is next to Brave Arrow and attacks adjacent figures.

I have simply copy-pasted from The Book of Mohican River Tribe.
But you are right, I have clarified.
Thanks.

Re: The Book of Kira Jax

Nice!

Add Kira Jax to The On-going Collaboration of "Theracus Bombs" as Theracus has a little more life and is a total Shark so people will probably attack her before Theracus. Call it the JaxBomb

Re: The Book of Kira Jax

This chick is crazy. There are so many units that depend are their special abilities to stay alive. If you can keep her alive, she could beat some people down.

Interestingly, one of the units she thematically counters is one of her best matches. Team her up with some Glads and go to town. The Glads can hold down figures with defensive powers that they couldn`t normally take out and Jax can shoot them down, which she might not be able to do without endangering herself otherwise.

Jugger

It's like football with swords or LARPing without the geeky stuff. In other words, it's awesomely perfect!

I may be wrong dalu, but it seems you need to re-read the vampires' cards. Life Drain only removes a wound when the vampire destroys a figure, not when the vampire gives a wound, which is what I think you said.

Quote:
Life Drain
Each time Cyprien Esenwein destroys a figure, you may remove a wound marker from this Army Card. Cyprien Esenwein cannot Life Drain destructible objects.

Re: The Book of Kira Jax

There are so many options for Exploit Weakness.

But what are the strongest, most useful, most efficient usages you can think of ?
It may be worth to compile the best propositions in a spoiler in the OP.

Here are some of my preferred:
  • Isamu fears Kira more than anyone else, with 1 life, defense 1, no vanish, what can he do ?
  • Exploit the Weaknesses of a Microcrop Agent in water: no Water suits, no Stealth Armor.
  • Give the final wound to a Viking Champion: no Spirit on an enemy card.
  • Move forward at 6 hexes from Raelin, negate her aura, move back and take height, roll 4 attack dice against an unprotected DeadEye to try to get rid of him without exposing a more expensive hero.
  • ...

To be continued by you...

Negating stealth dodge is pretty big.
