Wyrd Games has another preview for us for their upcoming new miniatures game The Other Side. Let’s take a look at the Yarazi!
Wyrd Games has another The Other Side preview and we are taking a look at the Yarazi. Often compared to puffins, the Yarazi live in seaside caves and hunt by flying above coastal waters before diving in to catch their prey. They can achieve and incredible rate of speed but only for short bursts. To make sure their prey cannot escape, they can spit a sticky mucus at great range. When fielding the Yarazi, picture them as your light cavalry. They can strike quickly and get themselves out of harm’s way before their enemies can bear down on them.
Yarazi
Not all of the Gibbering Hordes made their home in the oceans. There are a few species that moved into seaside caverns, though none quite as fully as the Yarazi. The Yarazi are much like puffins, flying high above the coastal waters before diving underwater for short periods to snatch up their prey. The Yarazi tend to use short bursts of speed when hunting rather than prolonged exertions, and they can reach incredible speeds while doing so. They’re also capable of spitting an incredibly sticky mucus at great range, which is most often used to stop fleeing prey in its tracks. Despite their speed, Yarazi are not brave, and they will quickly flee from any real threats.
On the table, Yarazi function like light cavalry. They can quickly dart across the battlefield, flying over other units as they rush toward objectives or weakened enemy units. They’re not very durable, but fortunately, Yarazi have the ability to quickly escape from combat, which makes them annoying guerilla fighters.
Be sure to head on over to the Wyrd Forums to discuss the Yarazi.
