Yeah, that seems pretty bizzare to post the stats of every encounter. Isn't the Aspect of Tiamat's stats in the Miniatures Handbook already though?

only the stats for the large version are in the Mini H. The Aspects of Bahamut and Tiamat have been redone as huge creatures, not large as they were originally.

Putting all the monster stats on the website so anyone can look them up is no different than having the modual on a bookshelf in a store where anyone can flip through it.

Of course if your players are looking at web enhancements for modules you intend to run then you have a bigger problem. I like seeing the stats of the encounters in a module - I can make my own decisions then if it is level appropriate for my groups.

Might give us a good look at the mini coming up.

A dirict transfer from the stats should be in the general area of this:


Aspect of Tiamat LE
lvl 13
Huge Dragon(extralplanar)
25 AC
175 hp
6? flight
+21/+21/+21/+21/+21 (25?)

Reach
Breath weapon []:(cone OR line)45? damage of selected energy type. Fire, Cold, Acid, or Lightning.

Plus her tail and whichever of her feats they decided to use.

Let see how it would be for skirmish game?
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Aspect of Tiamat
alignment LE
Lvl 13
Move: Flight 8
Cost 90-120 pts
120-140 Hp
Ac 21
Attacks +16/+10/+10 (20 magic/20 magic / 10 magic + Poison )

Poison 10 each round DC 18
Fire Breath Weapon (cone) 40 damage DC 16
Cold Breath Weapon (cone) 30 damage DC 18
Acid Breath Weapon (Cone or line) 25 Damage DC 20
Electricity Breath Weapon (Cone or Line) 25 damage DC 19
Inmunity to poison, paralisis
Resistance 10 to Fire, Electricity, cold, acid

---------------------------------------------------------------------

That´s a very suposition... but i was thinking too

Rend +20 because she attacks with two or 3 heads and the other comes alone.
She is powerfull but she would not have Aura of fear [:(]

Yes i was thinking the same [:D] everything needs a balance. I don´t think Aspect of tiamat in non-epic could be very powerfull, i hope it comes in a way to be played at 200 pts skirmish.

So can you chose the acid breath to be either line or cone, depending on whether it is the green head or the black head?

i'm hoping it has one BW for each head. one fire cone, one cold cone, one acid cone, one acid line and one electricity line.

i could see this figure having 2 attacks and dual activation with the stipulation of only one BW per round.

If I'm reading the entry correctly, you can chose line or cone for all the breath weapons.

I can't see them giving her all 5 BWs and still keep her cost reasonable. I think we'll only get 1 or 2 BWs, but the player gets to choose which energy type (and line or cone for acid). I don't think 2 energy BWs is unreasonable in skirmish, and c'mon, she's freakin' Tiamat!

All five would be sweet though.

@ Luisjoey

I think they give him one Breath weapon with multiple uses (2). The acting player can choose which elemntal damage he want to use.

could look like this:

BW [] Cone 30 damage of chosen engery type (Acid, Cold, Electricity or Fire)
BW [] Line 30 damage of chosen engery type (Acid, Cold, Electricity or Fire)

and then epic would have more uses

She's going to be epic level anyway so I can see 5 attacks and 5 BWs without a problem. She'll also cost a crazy amount of points ala Nightwalker but that's just fine. People will still use her, I know I would.

I would like to see one of each breath attacks. Do them as replace attacks or what ever, but it really needs each breath attack.

The real reason she can't use all five breath weapons simultaneously is the other heads are too busy gossiping [:D]

Looks like she's likely to give the Nightwalker a run for its money as the most expensive Epic-legal mini (I'd guess when all's said and done she'll probably be sitting close to the 400pt mark). Doubtful they'd SUPER NERF the queen herself just to cram her into 200pt skirmish.

Well, her epic card will be high cost but I am sure they will nerf her for 200pt games. It is ok, the more use the better.

Assuming the stats everyone's throwing out are fairly close to the mark, the next question is this: given that, in every edition they've appeared in, Bahamut has been just slightly *more* powerful than Tiamat, what are HIS Aspect's stats going to look like?

Cheers,

In Races of Dragons. They have stats for the Aspect of Bahamut My convertion

AC 25 Huge LG Dragon points around 200?
HP 180 Speed Fly 10

Melee Attack +22/+17/+17 (20 magic/ 15 magic/ 15 magic)

SA: Melee Reach 2, Aura of Fear(-4 save), DR 5, Immune Cold, Sleep, Paralysis, Cleave, Blind-Fight Breath weapon 35 cold DC 24 []

also a Tempest Breath weapon ability that can be added to the breath weapon DC 18, it suppose to be some kind of strong wind ability I am not sure how to convert for DDM.

Possibly as knockback and stun. Tempest Breath allows the dragon to create a hurricane force wind with the use of it's BW. Supposed to move a smaller creature back at least 10 feet (I believe) and potentially knock them prone. The above would cover this.

I'm still hoping that they make the Aspect of Bahamut one of the large rares instead of one of the Huge ones. While I don't expect I'll ever use either in the RPG, the Aspect of Tiamat is fun since she's a cool-looking evil dragon. The Aspect of Bahamut not so much.

If it could use all 5 individual breath weapons it would be over the 500pt mark.
