[B]NAME OF TEST UNIT:[/] Gandalf
THEME TEST: Are there are any powers or stats on the test unit card that do not accurately reflect the theme or likeness of what the character should be able to do? Also consider whether or not this character's powers should affect destructible objects.
[insert answer]
FUN TEST: Was the unit fun to play?
[My brother played Gandalf both games. He said: "I enjoyed Gandalf...but he would have been more fun had the dice rolled better."]
FUN OPPOSITION TEST: Was the unit acceptable to play against? Could it be considered annoying?
[He was defiantly a challenge! He's not to difficult to kill, which is great, because it offsets his powerful offense!]
USAGE TEST: Were all of the powers on this card used, or at least usable?
[Yup, all of them were used.]
STRATEGY TEST: Does the unit offer any real strategy or interesting tactics to the overall game?
[Yep! Especially his
Blazing Strike SA, it gave him the ability to "hit and run".]
BONDING TEST: Compare the unit card with all currently existing Bonding abilities. Are there any Bonding loops that do not stop appropriately?
[insert answer]
SYNERGIES TEST: Think of all the current cards that would have synergy with the unit card. Are there any factors that could break the game by making a unit too powerful or too weak?
[A really good mix is Raelin or Talord. They work well with his
Leadership ability.]
POWER CHECK: When considering the test unit against all existing units (including all finalized C3V, SoV, and HoME units) and all glyphs, are there any powers that could be overamplified and break the game? Each power should define when it takes place, who or what it affects, and what conditions (if any) apply.
