Ghost Archipelago Plans!

I already have my Herator and Warden figures, but I need a crew. The plastic boxed set will take care of my basic crew needs, and I can probably squeeze out a good chunk of specialists too, though I should probably dig through my Bones to see what else I can cover. And then there's the credit with Reaper I'm sitting on to use in December during the 12 days event.

For now though, here's my plan, Heritor with the following abilities:
  • Crushing Blow
  • Iron Skin
  • Leap
  • Steel Heart
  • Surge

Storm Warden with the following spells:
  • Cloud Cover
  • Lightning Strike
  • Wind Walk
  • Water of Life


Speaking of, the official minis for the Heritor and Warden, while nice, have some issues. Mold lines aren't bad, but there's a lot of flash. Also the Heritor's swords came very bent. I'm worried about them snapping off. Also the tsuba (hand guard) on both is a little bent, and I'm not sure if that's intentional or not. The Warden's hand looks weird. I don't think it's miscast, but... I wish I was a better sculptor. I'd redo the fingers. I'd also remove the quiver from her back. They didn't give her a bow, so... WTF?



Anyway, for the crew, this is my plan:
4 standard crew w/ hand weapon and shields
2 standard crew with hand weapon
2 archer specialists
2 crossbow specialists
1 Guide
2 Tomb Robbers
2 Scouts
1 Hunter

That should leave me with 4 figures from the box that I can play with later.
