Suggestions for the C3V
 

Not a C3V Designer? No problem. This is a place where anyone can share their ideas with the Design team and discuss some possible synergies, powers, characters, etc. :)

If you want to suggest a miniature for C3V to work on, it is best if that figure is available for sale online in approximately the following quantities:

Uniques - 70+ figures
Uncommons - 120+ figures
Commons - 175+ figures


Not sure what minis are out there? MinisGallery.com is a site dedicated to information about prepainted plastic miniatures.

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

Yes, here's my first suggestion:

Make an entire wave without bonding.

Bonding is getting boring. I'm all for bettering old figures, but using it as the go-to fix is ho-hum (imho).

Let's be creative here! *whip cracks!*

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

I agree that bonding should not be the default idea to fall back on. I would like to see some real creativity beyond just that as well. However, that doesn't mean that we would never create some type of bonding, or more importantly, create a Hero that receives benefits from a current bonding power.

(Emphasis added)
Oh, I'm not writing bonding off. I just know (from C3G's previous work, really I can't say enough about this :bowdown:) that you are capable of more! And I really feel like the first wave should be something of a trendsetter, in a sense showing off the creativity this community has up its sleeve!

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

There are some ideas that could possibly use bonding in a new and more intense way. Don't count bonding out, but also don't expect it to be the norm.

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

More "X" Order Marker uses. :D

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

I would love to hear some synergy power ideas that may have similar affects of bonding without just bonding. :D

:ninja: by the Balantai. And I agree with him. :up:

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

You can't really overload on Xfactor powers because of the nature of the game. It is a nice limiter but almost too limiting. If you have an Xfactor unit, what is the likelihood of drafting another?

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

One thing that is interesting when playing with two or more units with the X marker power is that if you spread your orders out, you can really fake your opponent out. Like "is the X on Professor X or Wolverine?"

But I agree, you can't overdue it.

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team

Fantasty:

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

I'd like to see a Dwarf Archer Hero. Shouldn't be too hard to get a mini for. :shrug:

Re: Suggestions for the C3V Design Team
 

Honestly, I would be okay with the first wave being all heroes (common, unique, uncommon), whatever. This would allow some "learning processes" to occur (not that no one here has experience making interesting squads). Just kind of like trying to start small, and honestly I think one of the most interesting things to come out of DnD (and most practical from a custom point of view) is the "common synergy hero as pseudo-squad" (and yes, I am aware that this goes directly against my first suggestion of "no bonding", but bonding with oneself isn't bad. It just makes God cry).
