Here's another one for you: Braxas is a she. At least, I think queens are female...

As has been said in past topics, Einar may not be receiving a dragon, but human dragon hunters. I never realized until today though that he has an exclusive human and kyrie army.

I like Einar. His samurai are very powerful. He's a decent army to play.

because Einar's figures are based mostly in physical strength, this general would be the perfect choice for introducing insect type creatures into the game.

Einar could definitely use some Moon Elves or some Praying Mantis People. Something crazy like that. Einar is the man. You know he's just holding out so he can throw in all the craziness at once.

Also, this is a bit off-topic, but I'm pretty sure it's pronounced 'Eye-Nahr.' We can tell that it's based upon some Germanicish language, and we already know that Utgar is pronounced 'Oot-Gahr.' I would venture to guess that Ullar is 'Oo-lahr,' Jandar is 'Jahn-dahr,' and Vydar is 'Veye-dahr.' Sorry about the rant, but I tend to be pretty good at pronouncing things, and I just listened to everyone say 'Ee-nahr' on the podcasts and shuddered.

Right on Billtog! I always assumed that Einar was pronounced the same way that you spelled it.
I haven't been playing as long as you guys, but I thought of a few improvements (actually additions) for Einar:
1.Another samurai hero
2.Have you seen the hundreds of Chinese statues buried in the ground, some of them soldiers and some of them horses? What a neat idea for some support squads. Stone golem samurais. Slow on movement, but resilient.
3.See the Rebellious trait used for something.
4.With the Roman theme, maybe some chariot archers to keep the enemy tied up while you get the Legionnaires and archers into proper formations. Chariots would take up two spaces and be considered large.

So he needs some...terracotta warriors!!! [/Strongbad]

[Billtog]

Oy, I did a report on the Terra Cotta Warriors of Xi'an. Einar needs some of those dudes.

I printed out you pronounciation guide to practice with I think I have been saying everyone wrong

EDIT -- I have been saying Vydar correctly. Glad I saved face.

I would make a stupid joke about how Veye-dahr is basically Vader, and he needs Stormtrooper, which would actually fit, but I decided it'd be too stupid... But yes, Einar needs large units. I like the idea of terracotta warriors, and wold be pleased to see them in Wave 8, along with an asian dragon in the next large pack.

[MKSentinel]

Why not mounted samurai? Could have w/ spears and w/bows.
