The Book of Atlantean Palace Guards

[japes]

I could get behind that. Though I still think the bulk of that should still be carried by Ocean Master. No one should be forced to use Ocean Master in every Atlantean or Water amped figure. But if we cost all future version based on that we will have a bunch of unfun units. I agree these guys and future figures should have a couple test with Ocean Master but that's more to check Ocean Master.

[IAmBatman]

Agreed with japes. Ocean Master should have to account for how he boosts any Atlantean units.

[Ronin]

Yeah, thirded. I'd push these guys to On Deck, get close to finalizing Ocean Master, and then test them together (while OM is in testing) to see how it goes. Ocean Master should be the one to accomodate them, by getting a points bump or losing the dual-class if OM + Guards is just too good.

I'm also with japes on Ocean Master.

But since people look to be comfortable with the last set of tests, I propose to move the Palace Guards to Final Editing.

yea

Yea to Final Editing. I will get cards up later today if @Ronin hits the wording.

[Ronin]

yea

Edits:

WATER STRENGTH 1
Atlantean Palace Guards do not stop their movement when entering a water space. Add 1 die to an Atlantean Palace Guard's attack and defense while it is on a water space.

LOYAL TO THE THRONE
After taking a turn with an Atlantean King or Atlantean Queen figure you control, you may move any number of Atlantean Palace Guards you control up to 5 spaces each. Any Atlantean Palace Guard moved this way must end its move adjacent to an Atlantean King or Atlantean Queen figure you control.

PROTECT THE THRONE
Atlantean Kings and Atlantean Queens figures you control add 1 die to their defense numbers for each adjacent Atlantean Palace Guard you control.

Plaintext:

(the last change to Protect the Throne isn't critical or anything, but it made more sense to me to line up the 'defense boost' wording with the wording in Water Strength)

Plus it's shorter and that means larger text.

4 Yeas, just need 1 more. Thanks for wording Ronin, and updating SP Scapey.

Will need a bio, anyone want to write one up for me?

Give me a few minutes, and I can come up with something.

EDIT: Maybe....

Atlantis is an advanced civilization with a unique understanding of the Earth's oceans. Much could be gained from peaceful sharing of knowledge between their culture and that of the surface dwellers. Unfortunately, peace can be hard for Atlantis to maintain. Its precarious position as an undersea culture breeds constant conflicts both internal and external. The rulers of Atlantis know that a strong, loyal guard is vital to keeping the peace and maintaining order.
