#1 looks uncompromisingly brave and noble, maybe a little too much for his own good as he bites off more than he can chew and gets a can of woop-ass opened on him.

You should be able to change your vote now.

  1. Appears hunched over like he's already been injured from the capture.
  2. Looks like he could easily defect to the other side as stated in the European Return of the Witch Lord conclusion.
  3. Just your average men-at-arms. Nothing overly heroic about him.

So far it's closer race than I anticipated, with sound arguments for each candidate. I expected some hate for the Dragon Strike figure since this game and it's components get quite a bit of flak.

Minor differences yes. Overall they are the same thing though.

But it's in the epilogue that Sir Ragnar is mentioned helping Skulmar run off with the books, then it's mentioned he's since been found and executed.

I found that hilarious because when I first played the game with a friend, I misread the rulebook and threw everything at him (I thought it said use any available monster if your out, didn't realise they ment of the same color), and sir ragnar died. IN made up quests I later had him ressurcted and the main villian after zargon (Since I didn't have kellers keep or witch lord at the time).

SO it's funny to me that in the uk version he did turn.
