HeroClix: Assassin’s Creed Preview – Prince Ahmet
Howdy Clixers!
Here we go for round 2 of HeroClix: Assassins Creed out of Wizkids/NECA. Today we look at a key figure from the Templars and constant thorn in Ezio‘s side during Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, Prince Ahmet.

The first thing to look at is Prince Ahmet’s Blood Will End Bloodshed trait:
Prince Ahmet can use Enhancement. Give Prince Ahmet a free action, choose an adjacent friendly character and roll a d6. On a result of 6, the chosen character’s ranged combat attacks deal penetrating damage this turn.
Another thing we’ll look at straight up is Ahmet’s brand spanking new Templars team ability:
When this character has one or more tokens at the beginning of your turn, as a free action they can modify the attack or defense value of an adjacent friendly character by +1 until your next turn.
Ahmet kicks off his dial reminding his followers just who’s in charge with one click of Leadership in his damage slot. Second click Leadership gives way for Exploit Weakness for the majority of the rest of his dial.
The first half of Ahmet’s dial has him slinking through the shadows with Stealth as well as his I Will Shatter Your Plans–and You Will Take the Blame special power:
Prince Ahmet can use Mastermind and Outwit. When he uses Outwit, roll a d6; on a result of 4-6 you may deal 1 damage to a different opposing character adjacent to the target.

Mid-dial, Ahmet really brings his all to the battlefield as Stealth and I Will Shatter Your Plans–and You Will Take the Blame special power gives way to Flurry and Combat Reflexes.
Weighing in at 80 points, Prince Ahmet has the Ruler and Templars keywords. Couple these up with Sharpshooter and Indomitable combat abilities for some Templar rowdiness. I’m really looking forward to seeing what else we get from the Templars.
I want to play Ahmet and can’t wait to see what his troops bring to the table.
That’s all we have for today, but I’ll keep you posted of other cool HeroClix previews in the very near future.
