Mezzodemon Warmongers Pre-Release Discussion Thread

[Majora's Incarnation]

Here is the image of the Mezzodemons.

Poison Cloud - When a Mezzodemon Warmonger attacks a Common figure, add 1 to its attack value.

Exoskeleton - At the start of the game, place 1 copper Exoskeleton marker on a Mezzodemon Warmongers Army Card for each Mezzodemon Warmonger figure in your Army. After a Mezzodemon Warmonger rolls defense dice against a normal attack, you may remove 1 Exoskeleton marker from its Army Card to ignore all wounds inflicted by that attack.

Maybe each time they take a wound they lose a marker and ignore the damage, basically making them extra-tough/hard to kill. Almost like an extra life squad.

[BurnyFlame]

The markers could change opponents' species into insects or crustaceans. Maybe not. I am guessing they will be clear or white in color, like bone.

[Pickledpie]

Maybe, along the extra life thing, if one would be destroyed instead remove a marker and ignore wounds, or maybe you can use a marker and it boosts defense.

Anyways, real excited for these guys. Two man squad and they're lobster men. Plus Warmonger make them sound a little like wizards. Awesome!

I just realized that the Mezzodemons arent actually demons (known as Tanarri in the D&D world) but neutral evil planar beings compared to the Greek daemons. :P WOTC tricked us. But I wonder if WOTC will title their species Yugoloth?? Thats their real name for the Mezzoloths. (another name)

That was correct for 3.5 edition D&D. They got rid of Yugoloths in 4th edition and made Mezzoloths Mezzodemons. If you need absolute proof, check out of copy of of the 4E monster maual from your libary.

My thoughts exactly.

Uuuhh, yeah, what is up with that, the word Warmonger makes me think big-melee-tank-kinda-guy. (Or a fishmonger)

Mezzodemons are footsoliders, and a warmonger is like a archaic term for rioter, so I picture these creatures as demons picking fights for no apparent reason

I think someone had postulated that the exoskeleton markers would be left on the spaces where Mezzodemons were killed... that makes a lot of sense to me... a bony/spiky skeleton left behind to cause pain to anyone trying to take the glyph they were guarding...

Nah, if it were like that I'd suspect a special glyph.

Oh, and if the markers work like I think, we might have our first uncommon squad
