Zetacron Revealed

He would also be very good with the glyph of thorian.

For 60 points, who can complain. Lol.

Great low cost hero with superior range. Being Large and a Soulborg, he's immune to some attacks and specials which is always a bonus. I can't wait to use him with some Omnicrons.

Gotta agree with some of what's been said, that of the three recent reveals so far, he'll definitely see the most play in a tournament setting.

Perfect for charging out early and quickly taking out (or severly injuring) a powerful hero. Definitely a fig I would be willing to sacrifice to take out a Raelin or Syvaris type before they had a chance to make an impact (and if you get lucky, he'll survive one volley of shooting and can cripple your opponent by taking out another hero very quickly).

Does anyone remember if he is a double-spaced figure or a single-spaced?

After thinking about this guy for 30 minutes, I like him just the way he is. My first impression was a disappointment. However, we needed more filler units. We often find ourselves looking for a 10-to-70 filler unit, primarily with range. The Cowboys/lawmen do the trick often. It was time for something like this. Now I only need a human champion worth between 40 to 60 for my KoWs and 4th Mass-based armies or a range filler unit with Valiant personality. Crossbowman anyone? I love the diversity of heroscape.

As posted above we'll see many armies using

Venoc Warlord X 1 = 120 +
Aubrien Archers X 2 = 260 +
Zetacron = 320 +

Whatever else floats your boat in terms of Vipers, etc.

May as well throw in a squad of rats to equal 500 (unless you're point total is 460, of course).

I think he's double spaced. If so, we got a large, 8 ranged, double spaced figure with some serious attack possibilities all for 60 pts! What a deal! I'm excited to use him. Too bad Shiori will now never see any play. Not that I'd play her anyway, but geese, this guy's a steal.

As I said before I was hoping for a little more: more pt value and more special abilities to help omnicrons, but like Truth said perhaps we'll something in the future that will make him even better. I was definitely pleasantly surprised to seehis pt cost and stats. He's pretty solid for only 60 pts. 4 Defense will keep him alive and that 2 attack, 3 with height, even more if you give him some support or spirits, makes him awesome.

Happy day!

Judging from the hit zone pic on the card I can't imagine that stance can fit on a single base (I have been known to be wrong on occasion though ).

[lonewolf]

Double spaced! (My crappy pic from Gencon!)



As a matter of fact, I just checked my pictures and all of the Large Heroes are double spaced (Makes sense).
