Can the flying unit in a shadowstrike make a move after being set up with the strike from the skies rule?
It really is. Six Terradons dropping their bombs can really ruin your opponent's day. I have played that a few times. Might also try it with nine one day.
that's just mean… I don't think anything really rivals a potential 27 mortal wounds anywhere on the board. Though to be honest, terradons bombs seem to unreliable for it. Even 9 terradons will average a "mere" 9 mortal wounds, which for some reason feels very dissapointing.
Yeah but then they still have their shooting and melee attacks. I once killed a Stardrake in one round with six terradons and a few regular Skinks. It was awesome.
True, they're decent enough to pull their weight, bombs or not. But their bombs could use a buff or two to be more reliable, possibly at the cost of a lower maximum potential. It's just kind of lame to have a once-per-game ability that's liable to completly fizzle.
QFT. The way terradons' drop works, you cannot build a real tactic upon it, as it's too much unreliable.
