I appreciate that a 4-square model is going to be a nightmare to balance, but I just want to play a Hell Mantis. On a slightly less out-there note, it would be neat if you could unlock enemy models for use in MP. "War Monkey" is clearly a skin for an elven warrior, and the rook, bishop and pawn from the astral levels are clearly a human warrior, priest and wizard respectively. I'll be there are a lot more that are obvious enough that it shouldn't cause complaints.
That's what custom scenarios are for I really should make them more visible. If you want to assault a friend's party with a Hell Mantis you can do the following: * Join the Card Hunter Club, if you haven't done so already (sorry this is a club-only feature) * Save the file attached to this post to your computer * Enter the multiplayer lobby * Click Casual Game * Click on the Custom tab * Click load, and select the file that you downloaded earlier * Click on your friend's name from the list on the right, then click Create Game. Your friend doesn't need to be a club member. This will invite them to play a scenario wherein, while exploring a forest, your friend's party is alarmed by the sound of tumbling boulders. They spin around and see the path behind them now blocked, and in doing so, allow your hell mantis to creep from the bushes and attack! I put this board and scenario together in about 20 minutes. Some of the systems require a little learning, but it shouldn't take too long before you're able to do the same. Enjoy! Also: The hell mantis is a bit weak against 3 MP level characters. You might want to add a second one. Or a third.
