| Haven't seen an AC 24 in a long time. Suddenly those +10 attack bonuses aren't looking as hot as they used to be.

| I am pleasantly suprised by both of these. I had figued both would be commanders, but instead they are both tanks.
The Exarch of Tyranny is pretty scary. AC 24! Ring of blades, cleave, decent attacks, gains HP for killing stuff with no upper limit. Its a bit expensive, but I'd say its worth it.
Champion of Dol Dorn's speed 4 is a significant drawback, but 95 HP and save 11 means he'll stay around. Feat of Strength is awesome, and provoke is a nice bodyguardish ability too. I really like it, despite the low speed.

| Exarch of Tyranny looks real good. Good HP, great AC, good attack bonus, all those Special Abilities.Â
Maybe the only slight drawback is level 8.  Maybe the Human Blackguard makes a comeback. Â

| | Exarch looks neato!! I'll definitely play him some. Dol Dorn doesn't look bad either, other than speed 4. | | Hey Woman, Hey Woman!! Listen here.

As far as I know, "Exarch" is a title, comperable to a governer. I am not sure if there is some resource with a class called "Exarch of Tyranny" but I'm thinking he's just supposed to be a tyrannical lord who is a fighter type, perhaps with the cash for some serious magical items.

| Whee- this makes me plenty happy, some nice old schoolish beaters. Is it just me or does the Exarch of Tyranny feel sort of like an update for the Thayan Knight?
Champion of Dol Dorn is nice too, but I'm afraid that speed four will kill it, I'll almost always be able to avoid melee with it, and out of melee it is worthless. | | Call me: W.N. Gobo! originally posted by grim: While he is clearly insane, he does have a point. | |

| | AC is all well and good, but that 75 hp on the Exarch isn't going to last long against the autodamage that Storm and her Cormyrean pals are throwing around right now. And speed 4 for the doldrums guy just stinks. Speed 4 kills a lot of figures. When something has a single move that's as fast as your double move, you have very little room to maneuver. | |

Dol Dorn is nice too... huge hp, great att, situational special abilities make him nice... not too spendy really...

| | yeah... ran into that problem when playing on frostfell rift with the Thrall of Blackblade... its nice to push them into the pit but when they make the save and move away and have reach it sucks... probably use it for the kill when you need 10 dmg or if you can slide into a pit. | | Rock Bottom Pricing: Arcane Archer 30, Centaur Hero 67, Human Cleric of Bane 25, Gold Champion 34, Death Knight 52, Goblin Blackblade 9, Silentwolf Goblin 7, Orc Raider 10, Dwarf axefighter 9, Healer 9, Thaskor 65, Aspect of Demogorgon 71, Ogre 9, Fire Giant 79, Human Wanderer 7, Drunken Master 18, Barghest 12, Longstider Barbarian 27, Longtooth Barbarian 22, Frost Giant 76, Ravenous Vampire 42, Large Earth Elemental: priceless | |

Win an important Initiative and run the Exarch up next to as many enemy units as possible and when they activate 5 damage. This can be really big versus 65 HP emenies for all of the other 15 or 30 point damage hitters as it puts them at 2 hits to a MC, or 4 or 2 hits from death and a Cleave.Â
Or if something gets down to 5 HP, when it activates it dies.  Of course killing it off would be better.   
Still, my only worry is the Exarch's Level 8. Gonna need a solid commander to keep him in the game or as mentioned elsewhere maybe the Rakshasa and steal Storm's CFX versus Strom PORC warbands.Â

in the current meta game auto dmg units will ignore is AC24 and toast his 75 HPs in no time. | | | |
