Time once again to rank the characters in this expansion. ROOK are the heavy hitters in the game and are to be played on the hardest setting. But they're all awesome with great powers, which is why "Hard" level is where they should be played on.
1) KeijiIgnore an alien move per roll. Hardly any aliens will move across the board with her in play and that's so cool. Love her ability. No one else has anything like it in the game. Her special action roll allows her to change either 3 hit or action dice all to the same space....another monster move when executed.
The kickstarter exclusive character when rolling a wrench delivers 4 damage. His special roll allows him a -1 on required hits, making his gun more effective in battle.
4) Caitlin
4) Caitlin
She can ignore a "lock up" roll per round and her special roll also gives her a -1 on targets. Since these suits can lock up during the game it's nice to have someone who that may not happen to as much during the round.
5) Jake
5) Jake
Aliens around you move one less at the end of the round. This could be to your advantage in slowing the enemy down. His special action roll is 2 movements which is why I ranked him higher than the last 2. Again, speed is key!
6) Zawadi
6) Zawadi
2 Wrench's allows you or someone next to you to heal 2. Again, healers are good to have on the team but it sucks for the individual who has to play as them,
7) Nils
7) Nils
Slowest character in the game because you have to roll 2 moves to move once. Yuck! They tried to balance it out by giving his special roll make 1 hit = 3. But what good is that if you're dragging behind the team on the board? Terrible player.
