SWORDPLAY
If Taskmaster attacks an adjacent figure with his normal attack and at least one skull is rolled, he may attack an adjacent figure again. He may continue attacking adjacent figures, rolling 1 fewer attack die for each subsequent attack, until you fail to roll a skull.

SHIELD THROW SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 5. Attack 4.
When Taskmaster attacks with this special attack, he may attack 2 additional times. He cannot attack the same figure more than once.

QUICK ARROWS SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 8. Attack 3.
After attacking with this special attack, if you did not roll any blanks, Taskmaster may move up to 3 spaces. Taskmaster will not take any leaving engagement attacks when moving with this special attack.

PHOTOREFLEXIVE DEFENSE
When Taskmaster defends against a non-adjacent attack, one shield will block all damage. When Taskmaster defends against an adjacent attack, roll one additional die for each skull rolled by the attacking figure.

Aaaaaaaaand we are live!
And I don't know what I'm doing from this point on!

First off I guess I need to double check which mini we want to be using

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

Something is off in the OP. The top part should be centered.
Looks like you have some extra blue text in there as well.

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

Thank you
Fixed

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

Design looks good. This one was workshopped pretty hard before we got to this point. :up:

Eventually I'll want to see competitive and consistency checklists run before the initial, but after folks have had a chance to chime in about any changes they might want.

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

Better. Looks like all the card info is gone though.
Move that pic to the top as well.

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

While I did always like the "copy powers" version I do think he's a cool "bag of tricks" type of character. I think we're probably good for testing once all the details are worked out.

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

Do you mean the stat lines? Because I can still see those

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

As can I. The only thing that looks off to me right now is that the blue mini test should be centered.

Either way, I'm hyped we're here with this guy finally! I agree with Johnny that I really like the toolbox style that's going on here. Quick Arrows is really interesting in that Taskmaster only avoids LEAs if he began engaged. This guy seems quite strong with Photoreflexive Defenses and everything else, I'm excited to see him play.

Re: The Book of Taskmaster (Breathing Period)
 

The card info, this. It is normally where that giant pic of Task now exists. :)
