And another recruit! Many more to come, too… The Draekon’s Underling — Vannus Ebromia Strength 3; Intelligence 5 Special Ability: Whisper (In secret, add +3 to strength for one of your Viking Amoebas for one turn; write the target amoeba on a piece of paper and reveal it during combat) (The Secret Empire by Paul Genesse)
I’ve been a bad host about getting these Viking Amoebas up in a timely manner. Expect a whole lot more in the future. But for now, here’s the newest recruit to the Army! The Consumer — Duchaosus Strength 5; Intelligence 1 Special Ability: Absorb (During combat, you may sacrifice one amoeba to permanently increase Duchaosus’ strength by that amoeba’s strength) (Vampire Empire: The Greyfriar by Clay and Susan Griffith)
We just interviewed him (episode goes live tomorrow), but nothing tides you over like a little bit of art and geek humor! Here you go: The Taephus Commando — Dictavian Scoidius Strength 7; Intelligence 5 Special Ability: Reinforcements (If Dictavian is outnumbered in combat, you may draw enough Viking Amoebas from your Consumed pile to even the odds, starting from the top) (Shadow Ops: Control Point by Myke Cole)
We asked for it, and Mr. Sutter was happy to oblige. Here you got: The Giver Saint — Nickael Pheumos Strength 3; Intelligence 8 Special Ability: Infection (All damage dealt by Nickael replicates into all adjacent units at half-damage when activated) (Death’s Heretic by James L. Sutter)
There’s nothing quite like terrifying your enemies by riding on the back of an enormous dragomaeba! Say hello to our new recruit! The Draekon of Foleris — Vohextra Naeglerian Strength 10; Intelligence 5 Special Ability: Fear (Vohextra must be blocked by three or more amoeba) (Sword of Fire and Sea by Erin Hoffman) For the record, our interview with Erin should be up on Monday (on schedule this time). Cool, no?
I’m waiting for the day when a microbiologist stumbles upon this blog and tells me I’m being clever with these Viking Amoeba. After all, I do an extraordinary amount of research on these things. In any case, here’s the new recruit: The Shield — Palustria Apteryxe Strength 6; Intelligence 3 Special Ability: Encase (divert all damage dealt to one ofyour amoeba to Palustria; reduce that damage by half) (Geist by Philippa Ballantine)
