Unlocked all the hero promos except Legacy (wasnt fighting on Mars) in the same fight against Blade. The highlight was probably Tacky nuking her own Synaptic Interruption with a Blinding Speed to get the 5th Burst in the trash
It appears that all the Super Scientific Tachyon promos have been claimed.
Not sure what happened here - did you get the form filled out in time? If not shoot me a PM.
Glad you added in “a PM”.
Hmm, what's this about unlocking promos? I noticed some heroes had a "Variants" label (though it was only a few of the heroes, not all the ones that have a promo in the physical game) but it had a padlock on it, and I took that to mean they were gonna be released at a later date or something. Whre in the game does it say about unlocking them? I missed that :O.
Those padlocks indicate unlockable promos! Somewhere there’s a thread containing all you need to know about unlocking them, should you choose to do so.
Ah okay, I might have a look for that then. Will the other promos be available at some point? I can't remember which ones were missing...I think Ra's was, not that I've ever really played Horus Ra (I think I played him once), but still... ;)
The other promos will probably come alone when thematically appropriate. Horus Ra and Redeemer Fanatic probably require The Ennead and Apostate respectively.
Got my copy as an early Christmas present (I got money from family, so it counts, right?)
Didn't go to redeem the SST card, since I have one for being part of the alpha. Hope it went to someone who enjoyed it!
ill speculate that more specifically Redeemer requires Apostate to incapacitate Fanatic, a la the Young Legacy unlock.
If that's the case then the same should be true for the Horus of Two Horizons Ra as he only turned up like that after attempting to take down The Ennead solo (To say they curbstomped him is the understatement of the decade, IIRC the Ennead along with all the other heroes believed Ra was dead until he showed up again)
EDIT: Ooh, more promo ideas.
The Eternal Haka - Have Haka draw from the effect of the Ancient Library in the Final Wasteland.
Greatest Legacy and GI Bunker probably require a game played in the Time Cataclysm.
The Freedom Six heros probably need to fight against Iron Legacy (although there are six of them, so I'm not sure how that would work), and the Prime Wardens probably need to beat up Akash'bhuta.
GI Bunker is already able to be unlocked.
…Oh.
This is what I get for not actually having a copy.
I declare time travel shenanigans!
If they release the mini expansions alongside Eternal Haka.
Well so far the promos released, three out of the four don't have a major story arc as to why they're around, Rook City Wraith, despite the name, is just Wraith in her day job away from the Freedom Five, Super Scientific Tachyon is the same and G.I. Bunker is the WWII version of Bunker. As a result these are unlocked through just playing the hero, abet unnaturally to some experienced players.
Young Legacy on the other hand is directly tied into the storyline, she went to Mars with her father and picked up the mantle full time after Baron Blade killed Paul Parsons (at least in one timeline before Shattered Timelines screwed everything).
Onto the other promos, it's reasonable to assume that team promos (Freedom Six, Dark Watch, Prime Wardens) will be unlocked together, other promos are tied to significant story events (Redeemer Fanatic, Ra Horus of Two Horizons)
Now my reasoning is that Eternal Haka is Haka from The Final Wasteland, it's a minor plot point that Haka has survived beyond any other human ever to live, hell, half the flavor text on the cards from The Final Wasteland is Haka describing the Cryptids.
Now I'll admit it would suck if there was a promo tied to a single mini-expansion, but still, it's worth considering even as an alternate method to unlock him.
Any of the authors of the great strategy guides out there might want to post them up in the Steam community for SotM. It would be a great help for new players! Here's the link: http://steamcommunity.com/app/337150/guides/
