One is Dan Schiavello. He's printed with 2 clicks of repair, when it is supposed to be 2 clicks of decoy.
The other is Hendrene Michalik. She's printed with 5 damage with pulse, but then people decided it was broken for 67 points.
Are they units still tournament legal? I know what the simple stat changes are, and wouldn't lie about it at a tournament.
I thought they put out FAQ's so they would be legal, but this smelly guy at my venue told me, "misprints aren't allowed."
Do I need to mail them into Wizkids and get new ones, or can I use these? If I need to get new ones, are they still offering the correctly printed units?
I paid $15 for Hendrene and she wants to see some tournament action!
Not to sound rude man, but the SS le infantry has had a notoriously high value ever since their release. Those suckers are STILL a hot item. Just remember that value is always in the eye of the trader's.
I frequently trade LE's from my rewads for uniques and LE's. Because I have no sence of value? No, but because I need whichever unit I trade for, more than I need said LE.
Anyway yes all that stuff is tournament legal. Just remember the clicks as they are supposed to be. Just like the SS balac, don't forget the repair marker.
On a sidenote, maybe WK should think about releasing a new FAQ that removes the Wrench from Chuck Stepp's dial?
Wizkids does not correct dials, aside from a few factory mistakes that have been made in the past. There are no 'corrected' Hendrenes, Schiavellos, or Killer Clowns.
If you want to play those units, print out the FAQ and take it with you - at least the pages which correct the units, if not the whole thing.
Show you opponent the correction, and remind them about it.
At that point, no one has grounds to complain about your use of the units. They are perfectly legal as long as they are played according to the corrections in the FAQ.
We recently had a player show up with a Mining Mech sporting agility. Now Dark Age was notorious for having really dark grays, but this was definitely black. And it was the correct unit number on the dial. So guess what? The Mining Mech had agility.
It's important to note that there are no misprinted dials until they are corrected in the FAQ. And at that point using them with the FAQ corrections is legal.
I was wondering if Wizkids would correct my Cacey Duncan. Cacy has 2 clicks of evade, followed by five clicks of armor piercing. (On two clicks, the armor piercing is for zero damage). Improved Targeting starts up one click late. The saddest part is, this is Cacey Duncan's dial.(Unless there is another unit #156 with Cacey's exact numerical stats and different abilites)
Also, can I play the Templar with Evade? (Like the dial shows)
The abilities are sort of offset too, so you can't always tell which stat they are on.
Mark (this is Chase), i was ready to chime(sp?) in last week when he said you couldnt play the unit. but ive decided im not going to say anything if im not playing unless its a question that i dont know the answer to.
you CAN play them because they have been FAQ'd, if they say you cant, thats there problem.
Also, it seems like our venue isnt so keen on rules. Even the BM's make terrible calls and get the rules wrong.

That is definitely weird, and against my previous comment, if the SEs and numbers do not line up (that's what it sounds like), then it is obviously a misprint - of the one-time-factory-flaw variety.
If you haven't heard of any other players getting a similar unit, then you should be able to send that back to WizKids to get it with the proper dial.
And yes, it's technically legal to play it with Evade, as long as the dial id matches the unit's id. Although it sounds like the rest of the dial is unplayable.
