Get the game if you havent already. It cool. Bit getting use too, but so much freedom
That model looks badass
not going to say no to a chance to win this game
That is a very nice mini. It would have been even more versatile and useful in other miniatures games without the blindfold, though.
Of course no-one in my party selected the acolyte.
I’m not normally fond of characters wading into combat with a blindfold on, but who needs eyes when you have faith and a giant hammer!
Love these Videos keep em coming
I wanna play this game !
Healer killer
But how can he see who to heal?
I guess he just has to take it on Faith. (Ha!)
The Acolyte might be my character of choice.
Looks an interesting idea, figures look good as well.
The acolyte is my favourite miniature fom this set, it is so cool once it is painted.
Interesting character. A healer with an attitude! 😉 His ability to buff other characters should be very fun to manage!
I love the look of this character.
Interesting look
Nice hammer!
Yeah the Acolyte is my Favorite so far.
all this guy reminds me of is an aerosmith song…”i met a blind man, who taught me how to see!”
…..Since te first time i layed eyes on MYTH this guy has been the coolest!!!!!….LOVE IT!!!!!
Thanks for the link to the tutorial videos. I’ve watched all of these and the biggest factor seems knowing what your cards at each stage can do. Got to say I was pretty daunted by the opening tile with 11 bad guys and only 5 turns to save he girl but actually this was pretty ok and certainly also highlights that gaining treasure at these early stages will certainly help when it comes to the boss stage.
looking like a fun game
Warren. Stupid question… Are you going to cover the Kickstarter only characters too or just the ones in the box..? ( I’m pretty sure it’s just the ones in the box – for obvious availiability reasons – but I just had to ask. )
Don’t know if i’ll ever get to play this game thanks to the crap that this kickstarter put me through. But on the off chance I ever manage to get my gaming group to try it, it would be nice to have an over view of the other 3 characters.
Can you let us know what the other 3 characters are?
Skald – (Plays instruments)
Trickster – (Makes traps)
Dryad – (Tree druid thing)
The Skald and a non tree version of the Dryad are going to be general release at some point but i’m pretty sure the Trickster is KS only.
Hi, still loving it.
best hero ever
Looking good
I like the blindfold. A nice touch.
I really like the look of the mini, sounds like a cool class to play as well
I’d rather see this painted than the fighter guy. 🙂 this mini is seriously epic.
nice
Very cool looking miniature.
My favourite model from the game and sounds like he would be the most fun to play too
Coolest looking of the hero minis shown so far.
Insert comment here.
Very nice mini, kinda like a male Lady J. 🙂
Sometimes you’ve got to bring the hammer down!
Awesome give away!!!
I couldn’t afford the kickstarter, so I’d love a chance at winning Myth bundle!
Sounds fun
The idea of “healer with a big-f**k weapon” is nothing new, that’s been the case since (at least!) original D&D, which gave us wonderful quotes like:
“Fighter, what are you doing?” “Sharpening my sword!”
“Elf, what are you doing?” “Sharpening my arrows!”
“Cleric, what are you doing?” “Blunting my mace.”
That being said, the Acolyte’s other party buffs are a great mechanic, and the somewhat limited range is a clever (if somewhat annoying 😉 ) way to avoid the “clerics and mages in the back” tactic. He really has to be in the thick of it, which means the other characters (particularly the Soldier, who probably relies on him the most) need to take care to keep him standing. Remember, if the healer goes down, your chance of a party fail goes up.
I would hate to Myth out on thith opportunity to win the game!
I don’t need to see. Faith is my eyes!!!
Love the look of this character. Big hammer and a blindfold.
Pulling a ticket for the lottery …
Ha ha I hope… no I have faith he will cast this spell this time 😀
Myth is a great game.
My favorite character and sculpt. Destroying thy enemy with faith beyond sight and a mighty hammer
OK I want to play with this guy, suits my play style to a T.
This is the hero I would want to be.
Myths looking good
Again another staple of fantasy role-play/board games but with that Myth twist …. I like it!
Sigh. Stop making this game interesting. I can’t afford any more interesting.
This looks like a wonderful game
Cant believe I missed this on kickstarter
Winning comment here?
Another great themed week, the game looks awesome! Thanks guys!
awesome stuff, this game looks like a lot of fun
what a neat concept
Holy hammer
Holy hammers light
Hammer time
Love the blindfold
Thought he was just going to be a healer, but boy was I wrong.
Commenting for greater justice o/
This is the one I want to play
This is the mini I like the least, the blindfold is just silly
I really want to win this 🙂
The man with a BIG HAMMER!
The “healer” is not the “spell caster”, this is good.
