Knox's Customs - NEW: 54th GRENDADIERS
54th GRENADIERS
This squad is 2 modified Sgt Drakes, working on uploading photos. The rope and grapple are cut off the grapple gun so it looks just like a grenade launcher and the sword is cut off as well. ALMAGEST THE AVENGER [IMG][/IMG] The design is for another Aquilla Kyrie hero to complete the faction started by @SchismaticSounds . Figure: https://www.miniaturemarket.com/ddmm...0aAnoPEALw_wcB Background: Almagest is the book by Ptolemy in which the discovery of the Aquilla constellation was first chronicled As you can see, my photo editing skills need work. But it's progress! EINAR DESERT ORCS This faction is designed after an old @Retlaw custom Grinak repaint, also named Ragnarak. I've updated the abilities from that original design so as to synergize with the Warriors & Raider. The figures are a repainted Grimnak, 3 repainted Tarns, and a Heroclix Orc Archer I've updated them significantly since first posting RAGNARAK [IMG][/IMG] Figure: Grimnak WARRIORS OF GRA-UR [IMG][/IMG] Figure: Tarn Viking Warriors GRA-UR RAIDER [IMG][/IMG] Figure: https://www.trollandtoad.com/herocli...roclix/1028968 Last edited by Knox; February 25th, 2022 at 03:28 PM. |

Re: Knox's Customs - My First Serious Custom
In an army with 400 points of the warriors you'll be able to move over twenty figures every turn. That's a LOT of movement.
I like the desert orc concept, but maybe look at Sir Gilbert for mass movement limits. Have you playtested them at all? They look fun. |

I also lowered their base move to 5. I could see this being too much movement even still but I like the ability's uniqueness |

Definitely try them with lots of figures and see how they work. It's going to be very imposing to see an entire army slowly creeping forward!

Re: Knox's Customs - NEW: Almagest the Avenger
I like the miniature chosen and the photoshopped effect of it flying out of the card looks great. Design is a bit of a glass canon, if he lives an engagement then he should be able to take down a hero or whack a couple of squad members quite easily. I think the more fragile stats are fun here, especially with the Kozuke samurai esque ability for extra movement.
I'm not sure if 110 is too expensive, I definitely wouldnt go above it. Looks fun! |

Re: Knox's Customs - NEW: Almagest the Avenger
Nice to see some cards!
The sand orc tribe is a brutal enemy on sand maps. I like the Grimnak repaint. Great way of reusing extra RotV sets. I'm thinking about doing a tutorial showing how to photoshop images quickly for cards. The figure popping out of the window is a cool effect I like to see. Almagest looks awesome. I think he is a little squishy for a large hero. I don't think it would hurt to go 5 life or 4 defense here, maybe even more. Since I imagine he would be attempted to counter play using squads, I'd like to see him with a way to destroy 2 figures. Maybe double attack, yea. Definitely a rush in assassin attempter as is, and I'm not sure his 110 value would be worth that currently. Vengeance is mine could be removed to give space for another ability, giving him a base 6 or 7 move instead, or adding the move bonus to Wrath of the River. I look forward to seeing his development! |

Re: Knox's Customs - NEW: Almagest the Avenger
Thanks for the reference - and "flashback" to an earlier time of Heroscape.
It's been a long time since we (son and i) did any customs/repaints. As more and more waves came out, we stopped doing repaints. Below is my version of Ragnarak from circa 2006. |

Re: Knox's Customs - NEW: Almagest the Avenger
Glad I was able to use one of your old customs - after 15 years! Thanks
@Retlaw
! I was 9 when you originally posted this, I probably didn't discover heroscapers.com or any customs until sometime between 2017 or 2019. But this was one of the first ones I found and one of my favorites. Glad to see Ragnarak hitting the table again after all this time
