Nice model, but I think this is the first one of these articles I've seen that doesn't mention any skills or stats. Presumably he's identical to his old version but cheaper and with a new special rule

Special rule is mentioned at the bottom
If he breaks armour with stab he gets +1 to injury

Zzargh news. With a pretty tame special rule.

At least his blunderbuss makes sense now!

Much better than Barik IMHO. And the mini is really cool, again, IMO.

Neat rule. Just the threat of Madeye taking out the ball carrier or cage corner will force opponents panic on offensive drives.

Yeah, its honestly such a free shot at the ball that I can't really see it not being a solid ability (depending on the player cost), if for nothing else than the threat of it.

Looks pretty good to me, especially combined with Breathe Fire.

Note that the ball (or cage) has to move to within 3 squares of Zzharg to make that work. He can't move before firing the blunderbuss.

Does failing his ability cause a turnover?
They didn't specify whether the ability knocks you down or places you prone...

Yes this is my assumption hitting your own player or himself sounds like it causes a turnover. so it's a big risk move as I read it!

yeah deffo better than Barik. I love all the CD minis! they're so characterful! probably my favourite looking team and set of stars.

I hope all blunderbusses and ballzookas lose Secret Weapon when the rules update comes through. Its so daft that they get sent off... Pogo, doom diver have no SW!

Interesting that blunderbuss doesn't even need line of sight. You could have players inbetween. It makes sense that it goes over people but remarkably accurate!

CDs had just a 48% win rate in BBT11. Let's see if they are higher or lower in BBT13 and beyond.
