Re: Suggestions for the C3V
Aquilla Kyrie are required to have bug wings I thought? Someone was working on an SoV one a while back.

Re: Suggestions for the C3V
Ah, my bad. I didn't realize there was a precedent.

Re: Suggestions for the C3V
There isn't. But it's something I feel strongly about, at least. Heroscape didn't just make Kyrie into generic winged humans. Each general's kyrie have their own distinct look, a different type of "winged human." Utgar's demonic kyrie, Jandar's metallic-winged ones, Ullar's natural white-winged ones, etc. Different breeds, it seems. Aquilla's Moon Tribe can and should follow this cool precedent, and what would be more fitting than insect-like wings?

Re: Suggestions for the C3V
It is also worth noting that there are lots of exceptions. Raelin and sentinel s have different wings and Kelda is blue, and Therian is completely different. I was lucky to get pixies for my personal moontribe, but me may never be so lucky again.
Also any commonly available wingged humanoid should be considered. |

Also, I still disagree that Moon Tribe kyrie should have insect wings. They were mistaken by Sgt. Drake and the others for birds and it seems really unfitting for a Valkyrie general named Aquilla (which is Latin for eagle) to have an army of insect winged kyrie. Maybe some insect winged kyrie heroes from elsewhere, but definitely not the Moon Tribe. As I said before you can do so much with wing types and shapes. It might be hard to find any kyrie-looking miniatures, but I think it's just as hard if not harder to find medium sized pixie miniatures. |

Or we just ignore those rarely-known references and do what we want. As for pixie minis, I've seen a number of good ones, actually. Haven't had a design get good traction yet, though. |

I agree that the skin color of the Moon Tribe limits options, so does the fact that they wear animal skins, but I believe that the design should be as faithful as possible to the original heroscape lore. The C3V stayed faithful to every other minor detail, I don't see why it shouldn't here. Nhah scirh were dragon killers, Dreadguls were more wild vikings, knights of blackgaard were evil knights, and raptorians were bird people. Granted they were never given such a limiting description, but what details that were there were used. I'd say it's better to have no Moon Tribe kyrie, than unfaithful Moon Tribe kyrie who are nothing like the kyrie that were described in the journals. That however, is just my own opinion. |

Re: Suggestions for the C3V
That Pathfinder Snowbound set may or may not have anything suitable for Aquilla kyrie, but it might have a good Utgar kyrie hero:
The figure is apparently called a Cambion. |

Re: Suggestions for the C3V
Does it have a tail? If so that would be problematic in my opinion.
