Unit Dashboard
The Manticore's dashboard is a double-sided card with a dial-style table on the front. The table as legible in the photographs:
| Row | Col. 1 | Col. 2 | Col. 3 | Col. 4 | Col. 5 | Col. 6 (coloured track) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 8 | 8 | ◊ | 2 | 5 [icon] X | 9 |
| 2 | 8 | 8 | ◊ | 2 | 5 [icon] X | 8 |
| 3 | 7 | 8 | ◊ | 2 | 5 [icon] X | 7 |
| 4 | 7 | 8 |
The column headings are not legible at the photograph's resolution, so the columns are numbered here rather than named. The [icon] placeholders stand for printed symbols that are not identified in the photographs. The ◊ symbol is printed in every row of column 3. Column 6 is coloured green (high) to red (low) on the dashboard. The dashboard's own text does not say what these columns or the track represent.
The dashboard's unit name block reads:
- Unit name: Manticore
- Five-star rating printed in the lower-left corner of the card
- Ability name banner: Mighty Throw Block
- The printed symbols beside the name are not identified in the photographs.
Talents
The dashboard carries two talent panels. Their text is transcribed as printed.
Scorpion's Sting
Header symbols, left to right: a hand symbol; a sword symbol followed by X; a bow-and-arrow symbol followed by 1. The meaning of the header symbols is not confirmed from the photograph, although the card text below uses the same values.
At the end of the Manticore's activation, make an X dice, range 1 attack.
The target unit cannot retaliate.
Vile Presence
Header symbol: an hourglass-style talent symbol (not identified further).
Every other unit in the Manticore's area suffers -1 offence and -1 defence.
Gaps
The following could not be transcribed from the photographs supplied. Nothing in these sections has been filled in from memory or from the base game.
- Activation cards (5 per BGG's description): the photographs show the Manticore's front card art and name banner, but none of the activation card texts are legible.
- Scenario (1 per BGG's description): not legible in any photograph. No scenario setup, objectives or rules are transcribed.
- Leaflet ("The Manticore" lore page, photo 3887739): the page is legible only as a title and a numbered lore page. Its body text is too small to read at the photograph's resolution. The French leaflet next to it is also unreadable.
- Column headings and symbols on the dashboard: the names of columns 1 to 6 and the icons in column 5 and in the talent headers are not legible, so the dashboard table is given with numbered columns and [icon] placeholders.
- Unit symbols: the symbols beside the Manticore name and beside the Mighty Throw Block banner are not identified.
- Mighty Throw Block: only the name is printed on the card. Its rules text, if any, is not legible.
- Expansion setup and placement rules: not legible in any photograph.
Rules for the base Mythic Battles: Pantheon game (turns, dice, unit activation, attack and defence, the terms "offence", "defence", "range" and "retaliate") are not reproduced here. They belong to the base game's rulebook.
