MONSTERPOCALYPSE: FIRST GUARDIANS TAKE FLIGHT!

Did you ever put your hand in the pocket of an old jacket, and find a $20 you didn’t know was there, or reached into the couch cushions and found that thing you’d lost? Some days, you just get lucky. While sorting through the First Guardians, we found a never-produced Hummingbird Spirit elite sculpt. And what better way to celebrate the occasion with a small tweak for these supernatural beasts?

Hummingbird Spirits gain Flight!

“You know that one thing birds do? That one special ability which birds have been known for since time immemorial? That particular thing that one might say is, for all intents and purposes, the defining characteristic of birds?

Well, now these birds can do that too.

All right, show of hands: who here thought Hummingbird Spirits already had Flight? If you have played this wrong before, don’t fret! This was an all-too-common mistake.

The main appeal of Hummingbird Spirits is Action: Transpose. Grunts fill that role quite well, and the Elites needed just a little something to help set them apart and justify their inclusion. As such, the Hummingbird Spirit Elites gain a new rule: Death Charm.

Death Charm – Enemy special rules do not trigger on hitting or destroying this model.

Now, these quasi-spiritual beings react a bit more like one might expect from something born of hopes, dreams, and the scent of flowers! Enemy special rules do not trigger on either hitting or destroying them, opening up an interesting niche for the elites. Worried about your ghostly birds being Repurposed into zombies? Not looking forward to your opponent Flashing away to hassle your lines after their attack? Would you rather not feed some vicious foe an extra power die through Power Gorge? Well, worry no more!

We hope you enjoy getting your hands on these fantastic new models in the very near future!

May is going to be all about the First Guardians!
