NAME = STEPPENWOLF

SPECIES = NEW GOD
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = INVADER
PERSONALITY = DISCIPLINED
SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 6
MOVE = 8
RANGE = 3
ATTACK = 7
DEFENSE = 6
POINTS = 440

APOKOLIPTIAN TROOP MOVEMENT

Instead of moving normally with Steppenwolf, you may move up to 6 Common Parademon figures you control. Then, if Steppenwolf is engaged, for each Parademon you control, you may choose an enemy figure adjacent to that Parademon and roll an unblockable attack die against it.

BATTLE HARDENED
If there is at least 1 Wound Marker on this card, the most wounds Steppenwolf can receive from an attack is one.

ESCALATING INVASION FORCE
After Steppenwolf receives one or more wounds from an enemy figure, even if he is destroyed, you may immediately roll X combat dice, where X is equal to the number of Wound Markers on this card. For each skull rolled, place a previously destroyed Common Parademon figure in your army on an empty space in your Start Zone.

SUPER STRENGTH

I think you want that first power to be instead of moving normally so it doesn’t happen out of turn.

Also the number for Super Leap should be the height not distance. If you want 8 spaces you should use Sensational Leap from She-Hulk

Electro-Axe is pretty cool. Neat mechanics.

Any class you could reuse instead of creating Elite?

Good catches. :up: I'll definitely update to moving normally after breathing.

I'll probably just go for the 10 spaces on the leap to stick with Super Leap, as Sensational Leap isn't a good name for him.

I mean, probably, but it'd muddy the water a lot on synergies. Antagonist or Tormentor both seem like they'd work thematically, but have a lot of mechanical baggage, obviously.

I was planning some Elite-specific synergies between Steppenwolf, Desaad, and Kalibak, with Desaad in particiular.

If folks really want an established class, though, I guess I'd lean Antagonist?

If you’ve got Elite synergy planned, then that works great. :up: I just try to be conscious of when we create new classes since we did the whole class reshuffling thing.

Re: The Book of Steppenwolf - Breathing
 
Fine either way on the Super vs Sensational Leap thing but we just need to use the correct name since we changed She-Hulk for this exact reason. Sensational is a fine word to use anywhere though, it's not She-Hulk exclusive. :up:

IAmBatman May 10th, 2021 01:45 PM

Re: The Book of Steppenwolf - Breathing
 
Yeah, Sensational just seems a bit "upbeat" for the character, though.

Oh, definitely. I don't hate the idea of just going Antagonist on them, it just seems like it might be worth keeping Apokolips its own thing.

Seems kinda weird that he has a special power for the totally normal looking axe that's barely even in the comic art and not the crazy glowing sword thing. :lol:

On the class stuff, Darksied's boyos seem like Enforcers to me. Or Invaders.

IAmBatman May 10th, 2021 11:45 PM

Re: The Book of Steppenwolf - Breathing
 
Yeah, I need to research on the sword. All I found reading up on him was about the axe.
