Title: MK: Dark Raiders
Post by: Spriggan on May 05, 2004, 03:14:48 AM
Finaly, Think new MK expansion finnaly looks like Wizkids is trying to get MK's modeling up to Heroclix's quality.  There's also a lot of cool looking models in this one.  And they've got that cool new mount feature.

Well I bought a bunch of these today and while I'm still sorting through all of them I am a little upset that I didn't get and of the "cool" looking mounts (like the dragons) or any unique mounts.

I did finaly get a Unique, besides the elf that comes with every starter, this guy http://www.wizkidsgames.com/mageknight/figuregallery.asp?unitid=5119

He's got venom (auto 1 damage to all within front arc) and invulnerability (+2 defence vs ranged attacks, -2 to all damage recieved, cant be healed) for half it's dial.  The invulnerability turns into Toughness (-1 to all damage receved.  And Crushing blow (ingnores all defense special abilites) for the whole dial.

One thing that bothers me is I cannot find any rules on Factions and sub-factions in the instructions or on Wizkids site.

I thought I saw somethign about factions, but I don't know where. I probably won't get any of the new set, simply because I only have the money for one game addiction and Heroclix wins, but I love the new models and the mounted rules. And they make great RPG figs, which is the main reason I have so much MK stuff to begin with.

Well it appears that factions only matter when moveing groups in Formations.
