Plaid Hat Games Reveals New “Storm Goblins” Faction for Summoner Wars Second Edition
Plaid Hat Games has released information about the upcoming Storm Goblins faction in their tactical card game, Summoner Wars Second Edition, through two recent blog posts detailing the expansion’s new units and abilities.
The initial blog post on April 29 introduced players to the Storm Goblins faction, focusing on two of its units: the Storm Witch and the Gust Rider. The Storm Witch is capable of harnessing and redirecting electricity for powerful ranged attacks, whereas the Gust Rider utilizes grounding techniques to protect itself from electrical damage. Thrak, the faction’s summoner, can transmit electricity through connected units, enhancing the faction’s emphasis on electrical manipulation.
A follow-up post on April 30 showcased additional elements of the Storm Goblins. The Kite Rider, featuring an agile Flight ability, allows for strategic placement and movement on the battlefield. Additionally, the event card Recharge was introduced, which enables Thrak to regenerate his core unit, the Voltswapper, and encourages strategic deck management to maximize unit availability during gameplay.
These blog posts are part of a series that Plaid Hat Games is using to gradually unveil the full capabilities and roster of the Storm Goblins. Each entry not only adds new characters and abilities to the game but also emphasizes strategic elements that players must consider to optimize their play.
