Amazon have announced the next D&D Icon for the year and its........

D&D Icons: Legend of Drizzt Scenario Pack

So if you missed out on a Drizzt mini first time around then it looks like your going to get another shot

The Brand manager for D&D minis says that D&D Icons: Legend of Drizzt Scenario Pack will be on display at D&D XP next week!

A while ago I suggested that they do an Icon included the Knights of Myth Drannor and a Gargantuan Red Dracolich (recreate the cover of Spellfire) wonder if they'll do it

Damn!

The rumour mill is suggesting that we might get a dragon in addition to Drizzts and co

Drizzt and Co have killed 2 Dragons Icingdeath and Shimmergloom and according to Erics list of Dragons from DoF that means an Ancient White Dragon (Huge) or Great Wyrm Shadow Dragon (Gargantuan)

The DDM brand manager said the following over at Maxminis

"While we do not encourage or recognize the secondary market yadda yadda yadda... we are confident that we designed this product such that the single Drizzt currently on the market will not be affected. Like I said, though, we do not encourage or recognize the secondary market and so on and so forth."

I reckon that means that the Drizzt mini in LoD will not be the same as the one in Archfiends

Maybe he'll be changed stat-wise, cuz Drizzt is not really cost-effective in normal 200 pts games

Errr...well...no

Epic (Drizzt as non-epic commander tho) with epic Tordeck would be a better option...will have to construct a warband that way

"2008 marks the 20th anniversary of Drizzt, appearing in R.A. Salvatore’s The Crystal Shard. This product kicks off the celebration for Drizzt , and contains:"

Sounds like there will be more than one product with a Drizzt theme

maybe the next Icon will be Shimmergloom (Gargantuan Shadow Dragon) Bruenor and Catti Brie
