Goblin Circus and Empyreal Avians: Preview 1
Greetings Summoners!
Two brand new factions are coming soon: Goblin Circus and Empyreal Avians, and today we're going to look at the summoners for these factions as well as their epic events. First up, the goblins!
Beware the rage of an entertainer scorned! The Goblin Circus wanted nothing more than to entertain the masses with acts that astound and delight, but every town they visited hid away in terror. Now they have a summoning stone and years of rejection have come bubbling to the fore! The Goblin Circus is here and attendance is mandatory!
Forced moves are nothing new to Summoner Wars, but Ringo's Start the Show brings the flexibility of choosing from multiple phases to force a unit, all while delivering damage!
Ringo doesn't just start the show - he ends it! His epic event, Final Act, forces a friendly unit, sacrificing it to clear a hole in the enemy lines. Not bad, but let's see what the new Avians have to offer...
The Empyreal Avians have abandoned their elevated temples and joined the Summoner Wars! Wield the infamous swiftness of birdfolk and control the tempo of battle. Launch lightning-fast strikes or powerful gusts that halt the enemy advance. Charge into the fray, stack abilities on your units and ensure your forces have the high ground!
Ra'Azhur has Flight, so cornering this slippery summoner will be tricky. And Raise Decree gives Ra'Azhur the ability to easily access both epic events. That's right! The Empyreal Avians have double the epic goodness of most factions!
Avians have always been known for being fast, but Decree of Freedom takes this to a whole other level! Decree of Worship penalizes enemy summoners for hanging back in battle. Ra'Azhur faces the same restriction, but a Flying summoner will find it easy to take advantage of this restriction!
That's it for this week's previews! Next week we will take a look at the common units deployed by these new factions, and how they tie into their summoner's theme! The Goblin Circus and Empyreal Avians faction packs will be hitting retailers and the Plaid Hat Games web-store in Q1 of 2027!
