No attack roll ? That makes no sense what so ever... What has damage got to do with the ability to defeat someone's defense ? Sorry guys, but I don't like this Relic. It seems like it's adding something to the game that just isn't needed. Sure, it may be cool and powerful, but it's not needed.
its all about sizing up the enemy then cleaving off thier head and sayign 'next'
heads on spikes indeed, this is by far the most evil relic ive seen...
but its not 'broken', it still costs 46 points (could instead get.. 2 fodder* goblin cannible** clurch piper*) adn it makes it so you can make ranged attacks (thou this sounds like it will bother me about as much as when my orcs berserk). as for the auto hit... well with that you cant roll crutal hits, adn dont a lot of solonavi and Dracs have somethign like thsi ability already (i call it the 'only need a 3').
whats being toted the most is the instant 8 damage.. but i dont tink ill ever do that cause that would be throwing away the ability of this relic until he gets healed or regened. reckless is awsome.. but i think its going to be like comparing awsome weapon masters (skele's) to ugghhh! weapon masters (nabar).
nothing hurts more then seeing your big unique go down without a fight
I guess with this unique, the relic might work. But most 5 dmg hitters have high attacks anyway. Think about it, you can have this relic or for one more point you can have the Possessed Draconum. Also, if you go all out with Reckless, you're down 3 clicks, 4 if you surged. After that your a sitting duck for a tough hit and surely you're 150 pt investment is dwindling.

Here is something to think about...Phalanx or whatever the 21 defend guy is. Everyone is getting all excited to place this ona figure with a high dam..but why? Ok think about this for afew minutes. Tou pay for a unique with a high damage value and use this relic to get instant kills but your taking up a huge part of your army by doing so. Instead if you give this thing to a less expensive unique then it becomes a great support killer. It will be able to take out those defend units like an EGM or Shield Golems. For the most part you just need a unique with 4 dam which should not be hard to find. The 46pt cost combined with a lower unique (70-90) and things begin to look a little different.
2.0 is trying very hard to mix things up. Certain domains are going to take care of those long ranges or fast figures and this relic seems to be the answer to defend units.
yep, the Relic should go to someone like the Horned hunter we've seen a few times, a cheap Unique with 4 Damage is actually good to wield this...against another fogure with 4 Damage you have to roll, but big deal, most units don't have 4 Damage anyway...
Okay we know Blackheart can be used with the orc faction ability, but can it be used combined with Thunderblow? Since the article didn't mention it, I don't think it's possible but does anybody have any ideas?
I was thinking the same thing Maximus...I'm guessing you can't...that wouldn't make sense...would be an instant kill to anything you based (with lower damage of course)
