Hasbro needs to reprint. I know I'd pick up another copy to gift to a friend.

I'm using the Rogue just right now and battle axe with oppurtunistic strike is a bane for monsters ;)


I don't know what would stop you making those two attacks, if allowed, against different targets.

Yes, the rogue would get 5 dice if using the Battle axe. Very powerful attack but their defence is still very low.


When weighing the options I settled with the Rogue holding a Shortsword (Orc's Bane) so he could capitalize off of Ambidextrous and Opportunistic Striker. When dealing with small 1BP monsters this is ideal for the Rogue as he could potentially take out 2 monsters in 1 turn.

However upon running through the Frozen Horror with a Barbarian, Explorer, Knight, Rogue and Wizard, the Barbarian's Battle Axe was stolen by an Ice Gremlin. Thanks to the Elven Cloak of Passage the Rogue came across the Ice Gremlin's treasure horde cave and found the Battle Axe. In dealing with big monsters like the Polar Warbear and Yeti, the Battle Axe probably was the better option despite losing Ambidextrous.

And as it pertains to Multiple Attacks with Heroic brew, Zargon has confirmed it on Twitter: https://twitter.com/seekhashem/status/1 ... xoC7uxJd6w


Thanks! I was looking for that... and it seems the Rogue is well and truly officially sold out, and as of yet hasn't been re-released as part of any pack. BUT he's pretty easy to homebrew and proxy, all things considered. Still, I would love to see this character come back in some form for those who missed out!
