Couple Thoughts
 

I like a lot of that simpler wording with two minor additions. We should add an "if possible" to Wynonna's wording just in case a future figure prevents OMs from being placed. I think she should also have to have a numbered OM on her as well so that she can't just be added to an army to mess with someone and then they just throw the X on her over and over.

For the duration of the game does potentially have a memory issue which is best to avoid which is why the figure that uses it (WWL) has a marker. It's why I suggest any figures she kills go onto this card so you don't have to remember which figures she killed. So have it be something like.

PEACEMAKER GUN
When attacking a Demon or Undead figure, if Wynonna Earp rolls 2 or more skulls, the defending figure cannot roll defense dice. If a figure is destroyed by this special power, place it on this card.For the duration of the game, figures on this card destroyed with Peacemaker Gun cannot be placed on battlefield.

~Dysole, otherwise happy

Re: Couple Thoughts
 

I ran into that memory issue also, so I agree also.

I was thinking about the X as representing the booze bottle in her hand lol

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

That is cool.

Shrug
 

I guess although I don't quite follow. It's mostly that she is a heavy drinker. It's not usually a plot point just a character trait.

~Dysole, glad Tornado is a fan of this direction

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

I prefer my Dysoles happy. :)

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Ok I like where everything is at currently here is the card as it stands. I intentionally did not put in a point cost.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Figures cannot be placed on battlefield. Shouldn’t that say the battlefield?

Yalp
 

Yes it should say "the battlefield". I'm happy with this rendition. 55-65 for points?

~Dysole, feeling like the point value is kinda okay. She does mess with a couple builds but for the most part she's a pretty niche/counterdraft unit

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

I like what I’m seeing on Winona!

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

I don't recall "Utgar figures" but I do think there's precedent for "figures who follow Utgar" - please reference otherwise
CURSE OF THE EARP HEIR
When placing order markers, if any opponent has a figure on the battlefield who follows Utgar or Valkril, you must place a numbered order marker on this card and each opponent must place a numbered order marker on the card of their figure who follows Utgar or Valkril, if possible.

Perhaps explore unused design space of placing next to card instead of on card to dance around Spirit powers?
PEACEMAKER GUN
When attacking a Demon or Undead figure, if Wynonna Earp rolls 2 or more skulls, the defending figure cannot roll defense dice. Place all figures destroyed with Peacemaker Gun next to this card. For the duration of the game, they cannot be placed on the battlefield.

FAQ
What if Peacemaker Gun is negated? Can the figure then be placed? Yes. The power that prevents placement would be negated.

Without Gun autokilling, Points shall drop
POINTS 60 --> 45

Thoughts
 

Is there any functional difference between "beside the card" and "not on the battlefield"? There are really 3 places a figure can be. Not on the battlefield, on the battlefield, or on a figure's card. Figures who follow Utgar does sound right so yeah good update.

~Dysole, who notes that Spirit powers wouldn't be affected by Peacemaker Gun as all of them currently are not on Undead or Demon figures

Re: Thoughts
 

If they were simply not on the battlefield, one could forget how they got off the battlefield.
If they were physically next to the card, there would be less doubt.

Customs could definitely open Spirit like abilities for Demons and Undead, possession being one.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

I say we discern wording then playtest.

I'm tied until Sunday, but I encourage others to grease their elbows and give this hero her just entry into the Halls of Fiction

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

CURSE OF THE EARP HEIR
When placing order markers, if any opponent controls a figure who follows Utgar or Valkril, you must place a numbered order marker on this card and each opponent must place a numbered order marker on the card of their figure who follows Utgar or Valkril, if possible.

Can save word space by saying control. Only control figures who are on the battlefield...

CURSE OF THE EARP HEIR
When placing order markers, players must place a numbered order marker on the Army Card of their figure who follows Utgar or Valkril, if possible.

In this version, wording is cut way down and the effect represents the pandemonium her misfortune brings to town

My Vote
 

Option 1. With two powers, word space isn't really an issue. Also Valkrill has two "L" s.

~Dysole, currently in the process of moving

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Good catch with the spelling of Valkrill.

Now that power 1 is effectively confirmed, let's work on power 2 then go to playtesting

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Hopefully I get to playtest tomorrow, ice canceled work

https://www.heroscapers.com/communit..._earp_8792.png

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Perhaps we not deal with figure placement after death. Remove the figure from game instead.

Steam Link for playtesting:

So it's fun when she rolls two-skulls.
Her drawback isn't much of a drawback, and that's okay.
Most games she won't be worth her Points, but the one where she takes out an imposing Undead will be the talk of the show.

Once we figure out wording, I'd be willing to vote and move this on.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Timer starts, expires Friday, March 12.

Upcoming design leads are: @SirGalahad @Tornado @Sir Yeshua

Thoughts
 

I'd rather like a 10 point bump with her at 5 life because she's at least as durable as you'd expect someone like Murphy or Shotgun to be. The reason why I had the language I did was to avoid a memory mechanic and because to my knowledge "removed from the game" isn't actually a defined term and so this was the easy way to kill zombies or thralls or skeletons of Annellintia and not have to worry about them regenerating. Otherwise I basically expected that to be about her power level and I'm fine with voting her along once we hammer out the wording.

~Dysole, trucking along

Re: Thoughts
 

What are rules for Temporary Power Glyphs? Those get removed from the game

Glyphillin
 

So it says removed from the game. Unfortunately it's in a rulebook and not on a card so that feels not QUITE the same but it does make me more amenable to that change.

~Dysole, who wants like a day to sit on it

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Life 5 should work, I felt she could have been a bit hardier during my playtest. She could possibly stay at 45 Points also, but 50 or 60 is fine too

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

So this is where we stand currently. i think 50 points is a fair cost.

https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/e3...22tq9r1pzg.jpg

Safari So Good
 

I think it should be "numbered Order Marker on a card of a figure who follow Utgar or Valkrill, if possible." I still like card placement rather than trying to remember which figures got destroyed and which ones got removed from the game. Otherwise I'm happy with it.

~Dysole, who will see what she comes up with the next time it rolls around to her

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Version 6.2
CURSE OF THE EARP HEIR
When placing order markers, if any opponent has a figure on the battlefield who follows Utgar or Valkrill, you must place a numbered order marker on this card and each opponent must place a numbered order marker on the card of their figure who follows Utgar or Valkrill, if possible.

PEACEMAKER GUN
When attacking a Demon or Undead figure, if Wynonna Earp rolls 2 or more skulls, the defending figure cannot roll defense dice and if destroyed is placed on this card. Figures on this card lose all powers while on this card.

Figure looks like it's from Heroes Forge

Also, this design expires tomorrow. About to playtest instead of file taxes lol.

Current next up order is
@SirGalahad @Tornado @Sir Yeshua @Ericth74 @Zetsubo @Knox @JC McMinis
Taeblewalker @machinekng @McHotcakes @Confred @CJtheMighty @Barry allen @Dysole

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

At 5 Life, She plays like a 60 Pt figure. I like her at odd Pts however because she's difficult to work with and I appreciate the pun. 65 could be fine. So could 55 since she's so niche.

In the series she's rough and tumble. Not particularly skilled at fighting but definitely more than 1. The increased Life showcases this well because she can handle a scrap

Drawback isn't much of a drawback, but it's fine.

Sounds Good To Me
 

I'd change "each opponent must place a numbered order marker on the card of their figure" to "each opponent must place a numbered order marker on a card of theirs" but otherwise I'm happy with everything else.

~Dysole, not 100% sure that the second power prevents things like Zombies Rise Again or the Thrall's power since the power is triggered from figures that aren't on her card (could just change it to "may not be removed from this card by any Army Card or Glyph" if we're uncertain. )

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Good call with the second power quibble

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

I should also mention the card gets crowded fast and that may need to get addressed

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

V6.21
CURSE OF THE EARP HEIR
When placing order markers, if any opponent controls a figure on the battlefield who follows Utgar or Valkrill, you must place a numbered order marker on this card and each opponent must place a numbered order marker on a card of their figure who follows Utgar or Valkrill, if possible.

PEACEMAKER GUN
When attacking a Demon or Undead figure, if Wynonna Earp rolls 2 or more skulls, the defending figure cannot roll defense dice and if destroyed is placed on this card. Powers cannot remove figures from this card.

https://www.heroscapers.com/communit...arp_468008.png

Close
 

Copy cyberclaw wording since the Sturla glyph is a thing. I'd also say "theirs" instead of "their figure" sounds more grammatically correct.

~Dysole, with finishing touches

Re: Close
 

I'm not sure what you're referring to, please write out the power

Re: Close
 

For reference (Commentary to come)
CYBERCLAW
Figures affected by the Cyberclaw cannot be moved by any special power on an Army Card or Glyph.

Glyph of Sturla (Revive)
One at a time, roll the 20-sided die for each figure destroyed in the battle (yours, your teammates and your opponents'). If you roll a 19 or 20, place the figure in any starting zone of your choice. If you roll 1 through 18, the figure remains destroyed.

PEACEMAKER GUN
Powers cannot remove figures from this card.

Clarity
 

CURSE OF THE EARP HEIR
When placing order markers, if any opponent controls a figure on the battlefield who follows Utgar or Valkrill, you must place a numbered order marker on this card and each opponent must place a numbered order marker on the card of a figure of theirs who follows Utgar or Valkrill, if possible.

That sounds most grammatically correct to me although I modded it from my original suggestion.


"Powers" is vague. Since Gladiatrons specifically calls out Special Powers on Army Cards or Glyphs that tells me that is the Heroscape language to use.

~Dysole, noting that Heroscape language could absolutely have been written better in many places

Re: Close
 

Figures on this card cannot be moved by any special power on an Army Card or Glyph.

PEACEMAKER GUN
Special powers cannot remove figures from this card.
It mentions Army Cards and Glyphs, if we start listing do we need to mention terrain also?

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Sidenote, since we replaced "has" with "control" I think we may remove "on the battlefield" because I think figures outside the video are outside "control"

Re: Clarity
 

"of theirs" feels way wrong without source.

How about:

CURSE OF THE EARP HEIR
When placing order markers, if any opponent controls a figure who follows Utgar or Valkrill, you must place a numbered order marker on this card and each opponent must place a numbered order marker on the card of a figure they control who follows Utgar or Valkrill, if possible.

Awesome
 

I love that version. I'll be back later to comment on the Cyberclaw stuff.

~Dysole, about to play a game in soon

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

How do we feel about Army Card crowding?

Three's a Crowd
 

So like even in her best matchup she should go down to a horde of zombies in like 3 turns which is something like 3-6 zombies on her front. I just don't see it as an issue any worse than Skeletons of Annellentia from VC.

~Dysole, mathematically

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Diggity. I'll mock something up soonish to display where we are

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

So this is where we are
https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/f0...22tq9r1pzg.jpg

Re: Close
 

I'm agreeing with this sentiment. Even if we create a seemingly better version, since an official version has been published it will by default be the actual best version.

PEACEMAKER GUN V6.22
When attacking a Demon or Undead figure, if Wynonna Earp rolls 2 or more skulls, the defending figure cannot roll defense dice and if destroyed is placed on this card. Destroyed figures on this card cannot be moved by any special power on any Army Card or Glyph.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

Agree on P-Gun wording.

Re: Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread
 

I think Wynonna Earp is ready for final discussion.

Barring no final suggestions I give this my thumbs up vote. :up:

Two other thumbs passes the design into the Halls of Fiction

Next up order is:

~Dysole, with a decent idea of what she'd do the next time it comes around to her but who knows
