I originally thought of having something similar to the Marvel master set. One good guy and one bad guy each, but Halo gets two good guys and two bad guys. And yeah a normal Spartan isn't really needed if we have Master Chief.

What Soundwarp is saying, is that the Spartan will be pretty dang close to the Master Chief, so the Spartan should be released in a different set. I would be perfectly fine with dropping him, and bringing a uncommon bad guy.

Yeah, I'm not saying we should never ever do a generic Spartan. Just that there are other things that make more sense to go in the first master set.

[Zettian Juggernaut]

Ah, that makes sense.

Ha, okay, looks like we're ready for a vote then.

(As for the name, I have some ideas... we'll get to that one near the end, though!)

Again, vote YEA or NAY to all of the following options which we will be included in our initial release. Voting YEA does not mean that this type of unit is DEFINITELY going to be included, just that it will be an option.

A - UNIQUE HEROES
B - UNCOMMON HEROES
C - COMMON HEROES
D - UNIQUE SQUADS
E - COMMON SQUADS

For me, I'll stay my course:

A - YEA
B - YEA
C - NAY
D - NAY
E - NAY

[Gardevoir]

A - YEA
B - YEA
C - NAY
D - NAY
E - NAY

Lets keep it simple to start with. We should let the master set take full advantage of the weapon glyphs, commons and squads wouldn't be able to use them.

[Soundwarp SG-1]

a-yay
B-yay
C-nay
D-nay
E-nay

[orgsbane]

Yea
Yea
Nay
Nay
Nay

[johnny139]

Ha, well, looks we're on the same page again.

OUR FIRST RELEASE WILL CONTAIN:

Unique Heroes
Uncommon Heroes

Next up, things are going to get a bit fiddly - might not be the best idea to do this so early, but I think it's necessary to get a headcount of the characters involved.

HOW MANY UNITS SHOULD BE IN OUR FIRST RELEASE?

I'm thinking 10 - solid number, matches the Marvel set, not too overwhelming but still giving us room for each franchise - but discuss it among yourselves for a bit and I'll put up an official poll.

[orgsbane]

Ten works for me. As you said, it is a good, solid number! Plus it can split evenly. That's nice.

[Soundwarp SG-1]

I'm good with 10, maybe 3 each for Halo and Gears, 2 each for AC and Bioshock.
