ENTRY 3

Entry 1 is nice and simple, and similar to Entry 3 with a little less power. So, if I had to choose one I would go with Entry 3 because he is strong enough to be more then just a cheerleader. But still a nice design.

Entry 2 is extremely strong for his points, IMO he is very broken since he could easily make your whole army Resolute to receive the bonus which he also benefits from giving him an attack of 7 and a move of 8! with markers left over to then "mindshackle" opponents figures, with the lowest required D-20 roll for that kind of power.

I really like that Entry 3's name is not Uncle Sam. To me it fits better with Official units that resemble iconic people/creatures but have a slightly different name. I also like that he packs a strong attack, but with a catch, he has to have not moved. This helps keep his power in check and points down. Also is fitting because you could rush up and hit him but then he is going to hit you back really hard, very similar to the way America would fight. Let you come and get the first hit then deliver a knock out blow.

2. Is the entry reasonably compatible with official HS game mechanics and rules? They all are.
3. Does the entry seem balanced pointwise? Entry 1 is under-priced. Entry 3 may be. Entry 2 is closest.
4. Is the wording of the powers reasonably compatible with official wording? They all are.


Conclusion: By these criterion, Entry 2 is the best. In addition, it would be the most fun to play. [Alas! I am too late to vote.]

Sorry I am late to the party.

First of all, thank you to all the participants in this contest and the 6 preceding contests. No matter my intentions or planning, this series of contests would have been a failure without entries to judge.

Also, thank you to LordRaidor for allowing me to set these contests up and providing the winners with their titles.

And of course, a massively huge thanks to Andrew of Auggies for providing the awesome prize of a $25 gift card for his store. He definitely went above and beyond my expectations when I first contacted him about sponsoring the contest.

Now, as for the winner of the 4th of July Contest. It seems we have come full circle from the first contest in this series, the Halloween Contest. The winner of that first contest is also the winner of this last contest. The designer of Entry 3 is... drumroll please...

Spoiler Alert!
