Master Win Chiu Woo was the Gencon-Exclusive figure for Gencon 2007, and was also available at Comic-Con and limited promotions on Heroscapers.com. He is a repainted Shaolin Monk sculpt. Like all Gencon Exclusive figures, he did not receive a lore bio, and so little is known about his character.

He was Aquilla's first figure ever released, and although players could see Aquilla's Fyorlag Spiders and Sujoah on display at Gencon 2007, they would have to wait almost a full year after his debut until Aquilla's Alliance to learn more about this elusive new general in Sujoah's bio.

FAQ's

• Master's Influence: “Clear Sight Spaces”
  What does "clear sight spaces" mean?
  From page 15 of the 2nd edition rules: "To determine clear sight, use Master Win Chiu Woo’s Target Point. If he can see any part of your Monk figures (not just the Hit Zone) within the 2 spaces, they are in range of the Master's Influence." [Non-official FAQ].

• “Single Leap” Clarification
  In Stealth Leap 25 it says "Master Win Chiu Woo may not leap more than 25 levels up or down in a single leap." Does a single leap mean one of the 3 moves that Stealth Leap 25 contains or the total of the leap?
  It refers to the total up and down movement of the Stealth Leap move. [Hasbro FAQ].

• Leaping Over Lava
  Can Master Win Chiu Woo use Stealth Leap 25 to leap over molten lava without taking molten lava damage?
  Yes. [Hasbro FAQ].

• Total Up/Down Leap Movement
  If Master Win Chiu Woo Stealth Leaps over a 16 level high castle wall, would he be able to land 10 levels down on the other side of it?
  Yes. The total up or down movement cannot be more than 25 levels above or below the level you started on. You ignore elevations up to 25 levels because Master Win Chiu Woo cannot leap higher than that. Wherever you land, it cannot be more than 25 levels above or below the level you started on. [Non-official FAQ].

• Leaping Across Obstacles
  Can Master Win Chiu Woo Stealth Leap over a 30 level deep canyon if he lands on the same level on the other side?
  Yes. The total up or down movement for that leap was 0, so that is fine. [Hasbro FAQ].

• Falling Damage
  Does Master Win Chiu Woo take falling damage when he stealth leaps less than 25 levels down?
  No, he does not take falling damage as long as he is Stealth Leaping less than 25 levels down. [Hasbro FAQ].

• Enhanced Movement
  Can Master Win Chiu Woo's Stealth Leap 25 be enhanced by roads or other movement bonuses?
  No, Stealth Leap 25 is not enhanced by anything and has a maximum movement of 3 hexes. [Non-official FAQ].

• Leaping Over Terrain Occupied By Other Units
  A narrow wall of terrain rises from a flat field, one hex wide, 10 hexes long and 20 hexes tall, barring the Monk's path. Master Win Chiu Woo wishes to LEAP over the wall, and could ordinarily do so since his LEAP is able to clear a maximum height of 25. However, 10 Minions of Utgar stand along the 10 hexes of the wall-top. Minions are height 6 figures. Does this situation represent a "total height" of 26 (terrain 20 + figures 6 = 26) making the LEAP impossible? Or do the Minion figures NOT count toward the total height that the Master Monk must clear (and thus the is allowed to make this, a height 20 LEAP?)
  A figure's height doesn't add height to the terrain as it is not a wall or a part of the terrain. The monk would be able to leap to the safety of the above height before he started Shaolin Assaulting the Minions. [Hasbro FAQ].

• Stealth Leaping "Through" Figures
  Can Master Win Chiu Woo Stealth Leap through a space that is occupied by another unit if there is not enough room to physically move him through that space? (Like an enemy unit standing in a 'window' of terrain.)
  Master Win Chiu Woo would be able to stealth leap over/through the figure. Remember, figures are not walls. Also, when it comes to "space" there is a point where you just have to draw a line. Even if the figure was encased in the window, and it seems the leaping figure wouldn't be able to leap through/over it, he can. He's a crazy leaping monk. And he's awesome. [Hasbro FAQ].
