HeroClix World: ClixCraves: Dungeons and DragonsYou can't play D&D without some bad guys, and Tiamat is the crown of baddies. It's one of those legendary creatures in the D&D world what you never run into unless you're in your Epic levels -- and even then you'll have a tough time killing it's 5 heads.

This particular Tiamat comes in 2 flavors -- a 450 point version and 650 point version. If he looks tough enough to kill your entire team in just a couple turns, then I've done my job; Tiamat is one of the most dangerous dragons out there.

His Her standard powers are pretty impressive -- Flurry, Energy Explosion, Pulse Wave, Incapacitate, Poison, Blades/Claws/Fangs, and a bunch of other stuff that can kill you.

HeroClix World: ClixCraves: Dungeons and Dragons

What you really need to worry about is his her Five Headed Attack, letting him her potentially hit 5 different characters in one go. As if that wasn't enough, you can't Outwit her Impervious or other defensive powers -- and she has 2 stop clicks just-in-case. Make no mistake, Tiamat will kill you -- and we Dungeon Masters prefer it that way!

From wikipedia: Dungeons & Dragons (abbreviated as D&D or DnD) is a fantasy tabletop role-playing game (RPG) originally designed by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, and first published in 1974 by Tactical Studies Rules, Inc. (TSR). The game has been published by Wizards of the Coast since 1997.

Your Comments:
Okay I posted that last comment before I got to the ranger, and I gotta say I liked the prior ones enough, but after seeing this I'm gonna stop reading. If you pick the RCE deal, on click one, without leveling up it can shoot with a 12 atk for 5 damage from 8 squares if you shoot a character with something you chose and +2 dmg from RCE. Then sit back with a 19 or 20 d at range. For 120 points. Then it only gets stronger. Really fast. Honestly how hard is it to KO 150 pts and max out at a 14 and 5 plus the healing (6 clix in 300 pts) and 11 clix of life, spec in larger games? Ridiculous. 120 points lmfao

I believe the Paladins Smite Evil trait, while cool, should have been worded like this:

At the beginning of the game and each time the Paladin gains a level, place a Smite token on his card. Give the Paladin a power action and remove a Smite token…to do what the trait does.

I feel that's easier to understand and more akin to how Wizkids would do it. Just my opinion though. I dig these very neat idea. Props

Fun ideas, and I agree this would be a great addition to Heroclix. You're on to something interesting with the "Experience Levels" Traits, but it just doesn't quite work. Perhaps individual characters with the Trait should gain a level when they KO a figure? Also, point values in general seem very low for so many clicks.

Love that I live in the birth state of D&D.

Energy explosion with 5 lightning bolts!!! Awesome!
Love the levelling up mechanic too.

Dials seem over powered but leveling up mechanic is a good idea, just needs tweeking so that they have less life. Also Alignments shouldn't be keywords as every character has them (such as Spider-man being Neutral Good).

@Cyanbloo Good call. I must have failed my Intelligence check...

For a moment, I thought i'd lost ten years off my life. Unfortunately scanning down the page I read "first published in 1974".
This surely makes it a 40th anniversary and not 30th as stated in the opening of your article.
Nevermind, i enjoyed reading it and your dials.

@Kannenxela: you are correct! that's what I get for writing at 5am! I have made fixes to the article! Thank you!

I know i'm being nit picky here, but from everything i know about D&D, Tiamat is a female. This may be just for 4.0 but it's just bothering me.
