LEAPING ASSAULT
After moving and before attacking, if Kon-Tar-Na moved less than 4 spaces, he may use Leaping Assault. Choose an opponent's figure within 3 clear sight spaces and place Kon-Tar-Na on any unoccupied space adjacent to the chosen figure. Kon-Tar-Na may not move more than 7 levels up or down using Leaping Assault. If Kon-Tar-Na is engaged when he starts his Leaping Assault, he will take any leaving engagement attacks.​
TASTE OF BLOOD
Once per turn, after attacking, if Kon-Tar-Na destroyed an opponent's figure, you may attack one additional time with Kon-Tar-Na. Before the additional attack you may use his Leaping Assault special power.​

The figure used for this unit is a Confrontation miniature. The name of the figure is Dasyatis Prime.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

Q: Can Kon-Tar-Na use Leaping Assault due to Taste of Blood if he moved more than 4 spaces on his turn?
A: Yes.

Q: If Kon-Tar-Na destroys a Goblin Cutter with an attack, do you Scurry before or after Taste of Blood?
A: Scurry first.
Scurry is directly triggered by the attack; you check for Taste of Blood after the attack action and all triggered effects complete.

Q: If Kon-Tar-Na chooses not to attack a second time with Taste of Blood, can he still use Leaping Assault after the first attack?
A: No.
If Kon-Tar-Na uses Leaping Assault due to Taste of Blood, he must follow that movement with an attack if possible.

Power Ranking and Master Index
Pretty dependent on hitting his first kill to get those double attacks. High mobility is great but the nagrubs can struggle to keep up if he’s your only Hivelord. B+

You may want to change it to Kon-Tar-Na under ORNAK: Red Flag of Fury....... It's currently listed as Wo-Sa-Ga.

I'm excited to use this guy. I love the look and design. Great job.
 
C3V/SoV Marro are tragically (albeit unavoidably) rare, so this guy is a real treat. I believe he is also the second Marro hero to lack a D20 power, after Tul-Bak-Ra, which is interesting.
His abilities are solid and thematic, but I have to wonder why he needs to destroy an opponent's figure to activate Taste of Blood--the option of destroying a friendly squad figure in order to reach an opponent's hero seems like it would increase his versatility without becoming overpowered, and would even fit his Relentless personality. Quibbles aside, Kon-Tar-Na seems really fun, and I eagerly look forward to his arrival at my house.
 
@Dark Stranger :
The Combo with Deathreavers could have been really impressive !! Like you spread your rats, than use them as Jumping spots for Kon-Tar-Na. And every time you do it, you can use Scatter..! Feels like a cool tandem, but I suspects that it could be a little too strong. ^^
 
Thankfully, you can't trigger scatter by attacking your own units.

Being able to trigger Taste of Blood by attacking your own units would be thematic/reasonable in retrospect, although ultimately I don't think it would be useful all that often.
 
KTN really does not like to be engaged. Because he's required to use Leaping Assault for his second after-figure-destruction move, and because Leaping Assault triggers a disengage from all figures he's engaged with, if KTN wants to move at all on his after-figure-destruction move, he has to take LEAs from every figure next to him. This makes it pretty hard for KTN to pull off his "kill a figure from low ground, climb up and take its spot on height" combo, if your opponent is aware of this interaction and engages KTN with two or three figures while he is still on low ground.
 
Kon-Tar-Na is definitely going up there in my top five favorite C3V/SoV units! He's a blast to play with Death Knights, and they way his figure works is very fun! Great design, looking forward to running him in an upcoming tournament!

Hahah, now I know what you're bringing. I can counter you.

Not really though. I've had the idea for my army planned for this one for over a month now.

Oh no!! Mercy upon my humble, bloodthirsty army that is definitely not planning to destroy all who oppose it this Saturday. (Watch as Kon-Tar-Na leaps his way to victory!)
 
After a few games of online HS I’m really enjoying this guy. Does the physical figure need to be rebased? The base it comes with looks to be a bit chufty.

YES. Lol. I pulled this guy out of the box a couple weeks ago, and his base is just massive. Like 2 1/2 inches or maybe 3 inches? I wasn’t expecting to rebase him myself, amd now it looks like I’ll have to... eventually lol.
 
this may be a dumb question, but how do you rebase him? because he is a rackham figure he is more fragile than the usual Dnd / Pathfinder mini, and im kind of scared to rebase him, because he could break. is there a specific technique i could use, other than beeing really careful with my hobbyknife?

When I rebased him I tried to pry him out of the Rackham base and then cut the pegs off with my knife. That first part was fairly easy. The second part not so much because of brittleness.
 
I used hot water to soften the plastic, then I exact-o-knife cut it off while it was soft. I bring the water to a boil, then turn it down, and as soon as it isn't boiling, I set the figure in it for about 2 minutes, then immediately cut. You have to be careful when cutting not to touch the water with your hand though, or it'll burn. I usually shake it a bit after pulling it out so that most of the water is off.
 
I'm hoping there's a fix to this, but this card is slightly lower quality than other VC cards. I printed it out on waterproof card stock along with some other cards, and it's noticeably blurry alongside the others. Does anybody have an HD version?
