He wants to steal the forbidden waters for himself and is known for his savagery and hunger for power His goal is to capture all of the wellsprings and their amulets. With that power, he could conquer Valhalla and use it as a base to conquer other worlds, such as Earth.

Any figure that is taking a turn must be within clear sight of Utgar prior to its movement. Special Attacks or Abilities that cause bonding, or require a 20-sided die roll may not be used when taking a turn in this way.

-Rulings and Clarifications-
EVENT HEROES:
This rule, although optional, should always be used when playing with an Event Hero. The main thing to remember about Event Heroes is that because they are a different type of hero, they are not susceptible to powers that specify Unique or Common Heroes.
EVENT HERO SPECIAL RULE:
When selecting cards to put in your Army, you cannot select two of the same Event Army Card. Event Heroes are never destroyed without first taking enough wounds to be destroyed. If a terrain rule or a special power on any Army Card, Glyph, or Destructible Object would automatically destroy an Event Hero, that terrain rule or special power instead inflicts 4 wounds on that Event Hero. Players may never take temporary or permanent control of an opponent's Event Hero.
EVENT HERO CLARIFICATION
Event Heroes may not pick up Equipment Glyphs. Equipment Glyphs may only be equipped by Unique Heroes.

UPDATE

School and other obligations have kept me pretty busy as of late. I had wanted to have many of the TMNT completed and released along with more LotR customs, but making quality customs takes time. Thanks to my lovely wife I should be completing more customs rather then just continuing to add to the ever growing list...I am not aloud to buy any more stuff until everything I have is finished, which happens to be a good thing.

Well I it is time to resurrect my very first custom project, which was never completed, the Valkyrie Generals. A lot of people don't feel that the Valkyrie Generals should have figures or cards, but I disagree. The Valkyrie Generals are main characters in the story of Heroscape. I had never completed this project, but I feel like it is something that I was very close to finishing and can share the ones that are completed now and the others as they are completed. We will start things off with the evil Valkyrie Utgar!


I am also nearly ready to release my first Large Expansion! Just as the official Large Expansions, I will have 5 big and powerful figures to add to the ranks. Here is there names and a picture of the figures to get you excited.

Aegir
Dark Rider of Mimring
Deathwalker 6000
Ragnar
Treant the Woodlord

Keep checking back to see them once they are released.
