Hi all
Another purchase for my emerging Silvermoon Trade Syndicate. May I present Zo, a Saiko-Komon (senior advisor) and a welcome addition to the support section of my faction which currently is a little light in favour of the heavy hitters. As I've stated before Bushido is all about scenario and sometimes disrupting your opponent's plans are just as important as swatting him with a giant Buto!! Anyway here's his blurb from GCT....
Exactly how Old Zo is remains unknown as it seems he has been in service to the Gumis of the Silvermoon for decades. If the years have taken their toll on his body they have certainly not affected his cunning mind and his famed intellect. Nothing gets past the owl like eyes surveying every situation from behind his rimmed glasses, weighing up the myriad options available.
Looking at his card, Zo is weak in melee, has no ranged attack and offers very little to the combat swirling around him but what he does do is subtle and far more important. At the beginning of the turn he puts up his "Tax" aura and all of sudden its harder for the other faction to pull off life saving Ki boosts or game changing Ki Feats, all the time swelling the Ki available to Zo and with his "Trade" feat he can then channel that to his fellow STS gang members allowing them to use the Ki - useful? Hell yeah!
Paint wise, he was a lovely one piece miniature, which I'm very grateful for. Sticking to the rich reds and purples of my faction colours. One day I'll get the perfect lighting for my iPad and take some decent pictures, but each of his kimono sections has a different floral pattern which is fairly decent.
I have a tournament in a couple of weeks and I'll be taking the Silvermoon Trade Syndicate, maybe Zo will make an appearance, although at this stage he's untested so it will be a gamble, but gambling is what these guys do best......
hope you enjoy
