Moonstone: Vespa

Faerie, Animal and Soldier, on a flyer base. Vespa is a Dominion Monster Box containing a single miniature in fine quality grey resin with its stat card and flyer base.

The keyword line does the explaining. Faerie and Animal together, on a flyer base, in a faction whose other faeries are mostly Rogues and Wizards. Vespa is the Dominion faerie that actually wants to be in contact, and that is a genuinely useful thing to own, because Shadowglade, The Enclave and Dark Deeds are collectively short on models built to hold a position.

Flyer-based models change how a Moonstone table plays. Boards are built cluttered on purpose, terrain shapes where the duels happen, and a model that approaches over the top of all of it forces your opponent to defend more of the board than they had planned to. The Goblin Airship is the Dominion's other flyer, and the Gnomish Airship is the Commonwealth's answer to both.

Add Vespa to any of the three faerie boxes above for a complete four-character troupe entirely within the theme, or to the goblins of Goblin City or Rule the Roost for a mobile threat they otherwise lack.

Not a first purchase: buy three characters before you buy one. A striking model and a rewarding paint. Unassembled and unpainted.
