These are some of Ibson’s favourite heroic teams—good, bad, and battle-tested in sealed or head-to-head tournaments.
Korak’s Klan
February 20, 2009 · Suggested by Korak
| Hero | Level | Points | Life | Speed | Attack | Defense | Damage | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jess Blacklock | 1 | 30 | 7 | 9 | 10 | 15 | 3 | 8 |
| Mage-king Alment Lan | 1 | 23 | 6 | 6 | 8 | 13 | 1 | 10 |
| Joram Hawklord | 1 | 22 | 6 | 8 | 7 | 14 | 2 | 10 |
| Barber Hurgg | 1 | 21 | 6 | 8 | 8 | 14 | 2 | 8 |
The three figures with Magic Enhancement can stand next to Jess, letting him fire at three figures for four clicks each. The Mage-king can Magic Blast for at least three clicks with Barber and Joram beside him; Joram can do the same when he reaches level three. Watch out for Magic Immunity.
Random tournament team
October 3, 2008
| Hero | Level | Points | Life | Speed | Attack | Defense | Damage | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sunbane | 2 | 32 | 8 | 6 | 11 | 16 | 3 | 10 |
| Astrus | 2 | 31 | 7 | 10 | 11 | 15 | 2 | 10 |
| Maboc the Bully | 2 | 30 | 8 | 8 | 9 | 16 | 4 | 0 |
These three came from a random-hero tournament. Maboc’s Force March worked well with Sunbane as the pair leap-frogged ahead. Opening chests was a challenge, but the team took only two traps from eight chests. Astrus reached fourth level and Necromancy in every round. The team won the tournament—though Ibson was sure even better three-hero teams were out there.
Close but No Cigar
May 15, 2008
Jarl Frostriven, Mage-king Alment Lan, Hazna, and Barber Hurgg form a strong short-range team designed to get close without making contact. Played properly, the group can shoot four times in a turn. Its biggest weakness is speed; move the group steadily and send Hazna ahead on surveying missions.
007
April 4, 2008 · Dedicated to Sean Connery
Council Lord Jamus, Sunbane, Rivvenguard Jaysa, and Barber Hurgg make up this themed team. Jamus is the assassin, Jaysa guards his back, Sunbane brings heavy magical firepower and Necromancy, and Barber supplies healing plus another Magic Enhancement.
Maren’kar’s Mates
March 4, 2008
Maren’kar, Astrus, and Spiritcatcher combine Flame/Lightning, healing, thieving, Magic Enhancement, and Necromancy. Arman Gessep is the suggested alternate when Spiritcatcher’s changing dial proves too challenging.
