Edi, average only in the sense that he reminds me of the Atlantean hero who I've only seen once or twice. Its almost like Atlantis stole a Ry'leh standard hero and Oce stole an atlantean standard hero. Not bad because they introduce unavailable paths.

Well, in comparison with some of the heroes he seems good but in comparison with the melee heroes he seems less exciting. Remember, this is without playtesting yet, but maybe an ability or as you said jack the paths by 1.

I'll be able to test a bit today, it seems like the melee heroes are a bit more exciting, more risk (how much would it suck to get them killed early), cooler abilities, and better stats. On the other hand I think the mage heroes will be all around more useful, especially the ones that introduce new paths.

Still confused on the tithe collectors summons. Place up front and let them get hit? defense and no offense? If so, (a bit harder to test, means i'd have to actually invade myself) it might be pretty cool. Almost goes in with the idea I had of defensive towers. Did they move 1/0 or something? fully immobile is a bit tough, but i guess thematic with the desc. of the collector.
