Who is the most versatile hero in Raknar’s Vision?

I’m new here, but have been playing the game for a while now. I am curious to see what other people think about this question. I personally believe that Nilfheim is the most versatile, if not the most powerful, new hero. My gaming group has been able to get in several games with these new guys and he has always come up big. He just seems so hard to defend against. He doesn’t need to be adjacent to attack big like some of the other heroes and because he flies with 6, he can be very hard to catch. I think the 4 defense die also make for a huge difference between him and Braxas.

I agree, Nilf is probably the most versatile with Q9 coming a close second. The best part about this release is that there isn't a stinker in the bunch. They are all cool and have their uses and who doesn't like a huge, sword swinging giant?!

Sorry, I thought I had him in the poll. Of course he should be added, but I'm not sure how to edit the poll now that it's out. Any help here?

Ummmm....where's Theracus???

He rocks at moving things around the board. He is a Scout so paired with Mittends it can get insane.

EDIT - Way to HEH adding him in

The drawbacks I experienced with Nilf is if he gets engaged with a figure *POOF* there goes that Special Ability.

And because he's a figure with such girth (he almost tips over on his own base!), he's difficult to fit into tight spots.

Juton

7 life, 6 move, 8 attack, he can throw your opponen'ts figure to harm or kill them or throw your own to high ground

he can swing wildly at a group with 4 attack and affect everyone adjacent...

so he could kill up to 9 figures in one turn (assuming he attacks a double spaced adjacent figure who is surrounded and that he throws an enemy figure to their death)

yeah I see why I voted Juton

A must read for all 'Scapers!

I voted for Theracus because he can fit in a lot of different point armies.

Or, throw your opponent's figure and then pound on it all in one turn.

I like Jotun.
