I just received something I hoped would come in the mail. I am now adding a Ticalla Jungle set to the prize list.

Woot!

Good point. Maybe I'll say that when Vlad dies, the "impaled" card dies too.

2) Is the Brimstone Steed attack modifiable? It's not listed as a special attack, so I suppose it is a normal attack. It does read almost like a special attack, though. I would restate it as "roll two attack dice for an extra normal attack," or something less clunky, to avoid confusion. You might even just have the unit attack a second time, or give the steed a different power, like a D20 roll to inflict a wound on adjacent foes due to the fire it sheds, not unlike Marro Plague or Toxic Skin. This can even be a special attack like Explosion that affects all adjacent figures (quite a punch since he is double-spaced). However, feel free to keep the original concept - just please clear up the potential clarity issue that it is not a special attack.

I like the idea of making it more like the Toxic Skin attack.

3) As written, he seems somewhat underpriced.

What would you suggest price-wise? I had him at 120, but then I looked at the Cyprien card and thought "For 30 more points you could get one life, the ability to heal wounds, stealth flying, and a badass special attack". (Maybe Cyprien is underpriced. I haven't played him.)

All that said, the unit is rather impressive.

Thanks and thank you for the feeback. I'll adjust the card before the deadline.

120 sounds pretty good. I'll have the other judges look at it soon, since it's hard to say with such a complex unit.

I was thinking the same thing but now I of course have a question regarding being adjacent to a zombies head....arrrghhhh.

My sole criticism is that you should include jungle trees as well (Jungle Spaces). After all, the jungle trees have brush at their bases.

Wouldn't it be awesome to put a bunch of these guys on the old Electric Football bases and play Scaperbowl?

Thanks! It doesn't show in the pic, but he has a shield on his left arm instead of holding a sword. All in all he came out pretty good.

Do I have to own the figure or can I use a picture of a figure off the web. It would be from reaper minitures. It fits the exact look I am going for.

You can use any figure image you want.
