The Book of Marutuk

Navess's Repentance - Heroes of Jutanguard

WORTHY CHALLENGE
Marutuk rolls 2 additional dice when attacking a large or huge figure. If an opponent's large or huge figure is within 6 spaces of Marutuk, she may not attack a small or medium figure with a normal attack or a leaving engagement attack. Marutuk may not move normally out of engagement with an opponent's large or huge figure.

DISMISSIVE SWIPE
At any point while moving normally, if Marutuk is on a space where she may end her movement, Marutuk may choose an adjacent small or medium figure and roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 12 or higher, the chosen figure receives 1 wound. Marutuk may only use this power once per turn. If she does, she cannot attack a small or medium figure this turn.

LONG STRIDES
Marutuk can move through all small and medium figures.


The figure used for this unit is a D&D figure from the War of the Dragon Queen set. The name of the figure is Bluespawn Godslayer #26.

Hey @BodaciousBlood , I figured I'd answer your question about rebasing Marutuk over here where more people will see it:

Some copies of this sculpt are pretty bent over, which makes basing a pain. I'd recommend using a boil-and-bend method to get her sculpt as upright as possible before basing. (Plus this way you can try to make her sword less floppy!).

If that's not enough to get her to stay upright, I'd try weighting the base with some washers (even just gluing some under her feet on top of the base or something).

Not sure if it would help any. But when 3d printing the large peanut bases, you could oversize them by just a little if it would help with basing. If you did just a little bit it would easily still fit on a double hex. Its not really an issue with peanut bases being a hair taller and having to fit in a ladder rung. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Thanks! I’ll give these a go!

For those needing assistance in rebasing her, I successfully did it this morning on a large peanut base. I placed her towards the back of the base to help with balancing. Worked like a charm!

Excellent idea. Very Frank Lloyd Wright of you.

I feel like we should have a mega thread with re-basing best practices. You can see my contribution in the Quahon book.

I was thinking maybe just put rebasing guidance in the OP of each book, where appropriate.

Makes sense, sure.

Why thank you sir!

Well met!

Marutuk denial?

[flameslayer93]

If the sword is straightened you’ll have a bit of denial, but it’d only be one space. Plus, it easily works against him too
