Those evil little jellies...These two Rogue Knights help to even the odds a little bit from previous years, in which there were always five hero action figures ganging up on the single Vladek toy. That hardly seemed chivalrous!
That's what I thought too when I saw the white hairs in his beard, but as far as I've heard 'officially' it's only been a couple of years since the destruction of the Dark Fortress. I guess all the stress of being king made him go prematurely gray.Fry_slayer wrote:My oh my, it is me or does Jakyo aged fast?
Vladek must be an old cranky guy by then??
Actually, I wrote something not too far away from that, though the books were creatures that sucked up the readers soul and had little to do with the main plot.Rayhawk wrote:Or maybe the Book of Morcia is vampirically sucking the life out of him... well, probably not. But I've always thought it'd be cool if the Book turned out to have been the real villain all along. I'd love to get assigned to draw up that final boss battle of all the knights of Morcia fighting desparately against an angry book.

The idea of a bunch of brightly colored knights fighting a flying, flapping book is a bit funny, but the idea is of the book being a villian is actually really cool to me... although it does sound a bit like LOTR... still, the idea would be really cool... people would be forced to see characters like Vladek in a different way, and it would lead to all kinds of cool plot twists.Rayhawk wrote:Or maybe the Book of Morcia is vampirically sucking the life out of him... well, probably not.

I saw a post over on BZPower about Battle of the Pass yesterday, which says the following:The Hordesman wrote:However, I did notice that the armies mentioned in what has been released of the lore is not shown in your pictures. Is this because they are not in this part of the story (and only in the "battle of the pass") or is it that you were not informed?
That post was actually the first I heard about it, so I'm feeling kind of stupid admitting that I keep seeing mentions of it everywhere but I haven't yet managed to even figure out what the Battle of the Pass is. Has everyone been talking about this on all the forums and I've just been missing it somehow? I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it's some kind of army building set finally.some guy on BZPower wrote:To clarify: the Battle at the Pass set is not featured in the instructions comics, but because we knew about it earlier in the story-creation process than usual, we were able to find a place for it in the story this year.
Notice how there's a whole Rogue Knight army out in the desert, but only two members travel with Lord Vladek to find the Tower? The Battle of the Pass is where the rest are - besieging a Morcian fortress on the way to the tower to keep the Knights of Morcia occupied so they can't march out to help their king.
After some search, I found these:Rayhawk wrote: That post was actually the first I heard about it, so I'm feeling kind of stupid admitting that I keep seeing mentions of it everywhere but I haven't yet managed to even figure out what the Battle of the Pass is.
