The Book of 5th Precinct Beat Cops

[Griffin]

You and I are just the tools around here.

No synergy to update, but we've got more Common Squads now and I updated the second example to be more "C3G-friendly," changing it form Nilfheim to Captain America.

  • C3G Common squads include: 5th Precinct Beat Cops; Civilians; Gorilla City Warriors; Hand Ninja; Hawkmen of Thanagar; HYDRA Agents; Parademon Shock Troopers; S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents; Science Police; Skrull Warriors; Street Thugs.
• Protect and Serve allows an adjacent Cop to sacrifice himself to save wounds on any figure (common, unique, squad, and hero alike). They can even protect each other:

During playtesting, this was found to be particularly effective against figures with special attacks that prohibit targeting the same figure more than once (like Captain America's Shield Throw Special Attack). Captain America attacks one Cop only to have a second jump in the way, then Cap can't attack the first Cop again. Also, this same tactic can be used to maintain height advantage, by allowing a Cop that is adjacent to a Cop on height to be destroyed in his stead.

As Lawmen shouldn't they have some kind of synergy entry with Jonah Hex?

Or is that in Jonah's book?

[Spuke Boy]

As Jonah's Fancy Shooting only affects Unique Lawmen Heros, 5th Precinct Beat Cops aren't affected by it.

heroscaper2010 caught this in the HoSS forums:

PROTECT AND SERVE
Anytime a figure you control would receive one or more wounds, you may instead destroy an adjacent 5th Precinct Beat Cop you control.

Good point. The clarification makes sense to me!

What say ye Heroes?

[quozl]

Yea

[TrollBrute]

Yea

Almost missed this, not being subscribed to a lot of these older threads.

@Just_a_Bill - you might want to grab the attention of the Heroes more directly when you post these suggestions. I know you've posted a lot of great questions and suggestions, but nothing has been done with most of them.

Hmm, I thought that was why quozl asked me to make this thread. Should I also invoke the heroes (like this? @IAmBatman ) on these posts?

Huh, I am subscribed to that thread. I must have missed when the Cops were posted.
