The C3G Book of Frost Giant

[A3n]

I with the rest in liking the current wording. I don't see the thematic flavour of them just making an ice rock out of thin air.

They do though. In the comics and the movies, they make ice rocks and throw them....

That may be true Griff, but unless this design is radically changed to give them a normal ranged attack, I don't see much benefit if any to give them a ranged attack of 1 by throwing the Ice Rock. As I mentioned before, not only is that a very weak attack, but it also can send their one and only Ice Rock somewhere out of reach to rot and then they just lost the FT14 power unless a friendly figure destroys the Ice Rock on height. Certainly an opponent wouldn't do so as they'll leave it there to melt away sooner than help the FG get his Ice Rock back.

And giving them a normal ranged attack would significantly increase their cost IMO and that is kind of what we were not looking for.

I think the poll results are pretty clear here, but I'll keep it open for Spidey/Sir G until it's time for a proposal.

[SirGalahad]

They seem pretty beastly enough without that ability.

[IAmBatman]

Should I count you down for a "no" then?

[SirGalahad]

yes

[Griffin]

It wouldn't make them beastly, just give them a simple little option that could be used in our optional rules... It is something that they do, and something that we could easily give them without affecting their cost in either direction....

[IAmBatman]

I think the people have spoken here. Anyhow, I propose we move the Frost Giant to Inner Sanctum Playtesting!

Yea

[Hahma]
