Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
Alright, I'll drop that line in the SP for now. Btw can Angstrom turtle with Grundy and Jason?
Oh wait I see he'd get knocked out. |

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
Upside Down not counting at all cuts both ways - stops the Demogorgons from turtling, but also means that if you've got a couple in your army and you're up against Dark Phoenix or whatever, they can just yoink her off the battlefield and win the game for you, no? (EDIT: Dark Phoenix has SS so not her or most Event Hero types, but general point stands about endgame scenarios)
Might need some kinda Frost Giant type clause on the Demogorgons' card that opponents can't lose while they've got a figure in the Upside Down. |

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
Solid point. Worst thing they could do with this version is move an adjacent full-life Phantom Stranger (460 points) off the battlefield for an auto-win. So, yeah, not ideal.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
Hmm, so is there any better way to consider it part of the battlefield but to cut down on the Demo turtling exploit?

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
Would adding to the map ruling bit work?
"If only one player controls figures in The Upside Down, The Upside Down is not considered part of the battlefield for win conditions." Or "the player who drafted the map or demos or so and so" Or any figures present in the Upside Down at the beginning of the game. Or figures with The Upside Down ability. |

"If only figures with The Upside Down special power are in The Upside Down battlefield, The Upside Down is not considered part of the battlefield for win conditions."

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
Alternatively, we could add an Portal entry type glyph tied to the Upside Down, for whenever a figure uses the Exit power to be placed on the battlefield on the space of whoever most recently entered the main battlefield, to serve as a way in.
I'm not sure anyone wants to fudge all the rules again, but it would be more thematic. |

Possible battlefield power rework.

Like I said though, this design has been through a ton of changes and this would be yet another, so I get if nobody thinks this would be worth the effort, I just like to get all ideas out there even if they aren't pursued. I can also definitely run a fifth test, if something like this were enacted. Last edited by Splash; May 3rd, 2021 at 11:40 AM. |

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
I think this take gets my vote. I like how they play, we just have to close off corner cases.

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
Hopefully some of the Heroes can weigh in on whether that covers us.

Re: The Book of Demogorgon Stalker - Public Playtesting
I don't know, feels a bit cheesy yet. What's the issue with someone getting knocked out of it once they receive a wound, or have it on a timer? Overcomplicating this might just create more edge cases and issues. I'm just speaking from experience from Angstrom. It took a LOT of work to make him work, and we cut out all the alt reality battling on purpose because it was extremely cumbersome and intensive to tool.
Basically, whatever the SIMPLEST solution here is probably the best one. If we need more and more lines of text, it might not be the right direction. Not a fan of the Frost Giant line in general even on them, but tying it to a specific edge case is even weirder. But if we need to push forward here that might be the only option. |
