INSECT STRATEGIC BONDING
Before taking a turn with Amberhive Protectors, you may first take a turn with any Insect Hero you control. If you do not take a turn with any Insect Hero you control, you may move and attack with up to 6 Amberhive Protectors you control.

SACRIFICIAL STING SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 1. Attack 4.
When attacking a figure within 4 spaces of an Insect Hero you control, an Amberhive Protector may use Sacrificial Sting Special Attack. If the defending figure receives any wounds from Sacrificial Sting Special Attack, destroy the attacking Amberhive Protector.

FLYING
When counting spaces for an Amberhive Protector’s movement, ignore elevations. An Amberhive Protector may fly over water without stopping, pass over figures without becoming engaged, and fly over obstacles such as ruins. When an Amberhive Protector starts to fly, if she is engaged, she will take any leaving engagement attacks.

- Rulings and Clarifications -

• Q: If an Amberhive Protector attacks a figure but the wounds are prevented by some effect such as Stealth Dodge, does the Protector still self-destruct?
  A: No. The Protector only self-destructs if wounds are actually inflicted.
  
  
• Q: If an Amberhive Protector attacks Tul-Bak-Ra with Sacrificial Sting Special Attack and causes wounds but does not destroy him, what happens first, Teleport Reinforcements or the Protector self-destructing?
  A: It is a roll-off to see which occurs first. Normally this is unnecessary, unless the Tul-Bak-Ra player would like to place the reinforcement on the space the Amberhive Protector occupies.

Thanks @Strack9 !

C3V: Any progress on an updated card for the text misprint?

[Strack9]

I use what the Gallery gives me (now I got'ta look and proofread to find what you're talking about).

Edit: Found it.

[Leaf_It]

I don't know why they haven't updated the Gallery image. The card was fixed as soon as someone mentioned it in the comments of the front page announcement. Here's the fixed card.

And here's a fixed PDF

[AndreThaGiant]

Thank you for your prompt edit @Leaf_It !

Q: If an Amberhive Protector attacks Tul-Bak-Ra with Sacrificial Sting Special Attack and causes wounds but does not destroy him, what happens first, Teleport Reinforcements or the Protector self-destructing?

Has anybody bought the 192-piece bag who is still looking to offload some of them (to help defray the outrageous cost)? PM me.

I saw you sent me a PM. I may have some left but have many that have been claimed and are still waiting on me to get around to shipping them. So at the moment I'm not sure how many I have left (if any).

If anyone is near Lawrence, KS, The Toy Store on Mass Ave have these figures and the Xualtiaca Fire Ants minis available for $1 each. No idea how many they have, but plenty of squads available for both of these.

Superfrog, I PM'd you on March 19, 2021 with interest in purchasing some bees from you. I never received a reply and so I assumed you were out. If you indeed have some remaining, please let me know how to acquire some from you.
