Re: [Pod 2] Alabaster Sentinels (Rhox Veterans) - Editing

Quote:
STONE FORM 2
If the Alabaster Sentinels have no revealed Order Markers on their Army Card, add 2 to their Defense.

HEADLONG CHARGE
Before moving an Alabaster Sentinel normally, you may add 4 to its Move. If you do, it must move in a straight line.
General Checklist:

1. Are we recycling a unit name? No

2. Are we recycling a power name? No

3. If we are reusing an existing power, is the wording exactly the same? N/A

4. What happens when the powers are negated (Rod of Negation, Exploit Weakness)? If negated by Rod of Negation, the Alabaster Sentinels would not gain bonus dice from Stone Form and could not use Headlong Charge. Exploit Weakness could be used to prevent the bonus defense dice from Stone Form. Do any powers continue to have effects after being negated? Is this clear from the wording?

5. Should the powers affect destructible objects? If a DO could attack, Stone Form could be used against it.

6. Do any of the powers unintentionally synergize with other players' units? No

7. Do the powers allow turn stacking? No

8. Are any of the powers conditional on a future event? No Is that future event inevitable or avoidable?

9. Does it have a d20 power? No If is a small, medium, or large Unique Hero, how does it interact with Mystic Sacrifice? If it is Tricky, how does it interact with Queen of Thieves? If it is Undead, how does it interact with Curse of the Mummy?

10. Do the powers create out-of-turn attacks? No

11. Are any powers conditional on the source of damage? No

12. Are any powers expected to work after all figures have been destroyed? No If so, is that clearly worded? How does it interact with revivals, via Glyph of Sturla or otherwise?

13. Do any powers that decrease attack or defense dice introduce a new minimum value (other than zero)? N/A

14. Do any powers change a Range value from 3 or less to 4 or greater or vice versa? No

15. Do any powers act unexpectedly in multiplayer games? No

16. Do any powers place other figures on this card? No If so, how does it interact with other place-on-card powers (Animated Materiel, Cling, Dwarven Gunners, Warriors Armor Spirit, Warriors Attack Spirit, Warrior's Swiftness Spirit, Necromancy)?

17. Does a power trigger off of an Order Marker being revealed on another Army Card? No If so, is the power expected to trigger if all figures associated with that Army Card have been destroyed?

18. Is it clear which powers are mandatory and which are optional? Stone Form is as mandatory as other defense-boosting powers. Headlong Charge is clearly optional.

19. How do the powers interact with the Marro Hive? Nothing special.

20. If the unit is a Soulborg squad who follows Jandar, how do the powers interact with Directed Fire? N/A

21. If the unit is a Common Orc squad, how does it interact with Incantation of Boiling Blood? N/A

22. Does any power's name or wording unintentionally prohibit the power's reusability? Stone Form could be reused with a different theme, but the theme is important here. Headlong Charge is a reusable name.

23. Does the text fit reasonably well on a card? Use this tool to check: https://www.heroscapers.com/xorlof/x2cc. Yes
