The tail will take up space, however.

I like King of the Monsters, but I'd have the defensive subtraction apply to all opponent's figures. He should intimidate everyone.

[MrNobody]

I did a Godzilla design a long time back. It’s linked in my public design workshop.

Was wondering if maybe he would be better off offering a group of monsters some OM flex for the "King of the Monsters" power. After seeing Soundwarp's post, I could also see it working like a Master Motivator type of power. He lands a big blow, and triggers a follow up attack by another huge monster/creature.

KING OF THE MONSTERS
After taking a turn with Godzilla, if he inflicted two or more wounds with his normal attack this turn, you may take an immediate turn with any other Huge Monster or Creature Hero you control within clear sight of Godzilla, and you may not take any additional turns with other figures you control.

While I don't 100% agree, I think eventy event heroes work best when they're at least 95% stand alone. I should be able to run Godzilla by himself and enjoy it as an army of one. Especially with the bigger of the two, of course.

I like opening it up a bit more to all Huge figures or all Creatures, if only so we don’t have to design a whole bunch of giant monsters to make him feel worthwhile.

[Soundwarp SG-1]

I thought the whole idea with doing two of them was to have a big 'ragh destruction!' Godzilla and a smaller 'good guy' Godzilla. 'Good guy' Godzilla totally does work with other monsters all the time.

Personally, I feel like a minor attack boost isn't really make or break synergy anyway. Especially if the same power is also hitting enemies' defense. Like if he's 400+ points and has a crazy atomic breath attack and such he would hardly be undraftable without other huge dudes. I wouldn't want to see something to the level of Master Motivator though, that's a bit too much IMO. OM efficiency would really be more Mothra's bailiwick I'd think.

Though I guess the question is which comic book versions to specifically tie the two sizes to, and if there is a proper 'good guy' Godzilla in comic books. Which I'd have to look up, since honestly all Godzilla media tends to blend together for me after a while.

[IAmBatman]

Yeah, it’s the OM stuff/faction hub approach I’d really be against.

[Tornado]

I was thinking about how I was going to have a Thoth card that turned Satanus into Godzilla essentially and was thinking we could try a similar mechanic here.
So we use the two hex figure and give him a power like:

LARGER THAN LIFE
Godzilla is consider to have the size and height of Huge 100 (or whatever).

[MrNobody]

What gameplay benefits would that have, T?

[Tornado]

He could attack figures on top of 99 level building!
Also I would add more to that power, not sure what exactly.
