One of the earliest and most successful applications of Biomancy to the art of War, the pterafon were originally developed by the Spires as dragon slayers. The folly of their efforts was revealed when the Elder Dragons awoke and put their efforts to shame, but the Directorate was never known for wasting resources. Refining their efforts they repurposed the suit by eliminating most of its nervous system and turning it instead into a symbiotic "suit" that grants is wearer the power of flight and enhanced senses. Of course the added neural burden of the alien musculature and sensory organs requires unsafe levels of synaptic enhancers which almost invariably leave their unfortunate pilot hosts as wretched, addicted souls. Despite this many consider this a worthy price to pay for the glory of flight and viewpoint of a god. While the bulk and offensive power of the original design was pared down, they were originally designed to combat dragons and as such remain a terrifying weapon of war against all mortal enemies. HOW THEY PLAY: As an aerial observer and ranged support unit, the Pteraphon significantly enhances the Spire player's battlefield awareness. Whether by launching volleys at vulnerable targets deep behind enemy lines or by marking enemy regiments to expose their positions, the Pteraphon serves as your "eye in the sky!" Monster Kit: 1 Plastic Monster, a Monster Base and Stand, 1 Command card and assembly instructions.
