Re: [Pod 1] UNIT NAME (Blazing Firecats) - Design
I am not a fan of that either. It doesn't fit the already-established look and theme of 'Scape. It also doesn't work due to Kurrok, who gives turns to "small or medium Elementals" (not Heroes). You cannot take a turn with a single member of a squad, so a squad can never be Elemental.

Re: [Pod 1] UNIT NAME (Blazing Firecats) - Design
Yea I don't like Elemental or Moltarn - How about Panthera or Puma - the two main Genus of "Big Cats", I could see someone making a Lion or Cougar Heroscape figure eventually and using these guys in some kind of synergy. Just think of them as Big Cats on fire - Aka "Fire Cats". Also, FIRST STRIKE goes well with them as I picture them as doing a short sprint and pounce, but only able to once a round.
Which "Big Cat" do they look like most? We can name them after it, AKA Blazing Cougars or Fire Leopards .

Elemental could work because they look like large figures, so Kurrok wouldn't break the game with them. A new race would work just as fine, though.

Re: [Pod 1] UNIT NAME (Blazing Firecats) - Design
Who has these figures so we can see a size comparison?

Re: [Pod 1] UNIT NAME (Blazing Firecats) - Design
They are Large! Due to that there is not Kurrok synergy, so we might as well give up making them Elementals.

They are definitely Large. So we have more freedom with big stats. |

Lions are the only big cat that hunt as a group. As a name what about: Ukushisa Pride.
Ukushisa is Zulu for blazing. Long live heroscape |

Re: [Pod 1] UNIT NAME (Blazing Firecats) - Design
8/1/3/5 stats or something similar would bring these figures into a similar line with the Deathstalkers or Marrden Hounds. Pairing that with some kind of conditional attack boost would make them occasional menacers who are also pretty decent blockers the rest of the time.
Here’s a spitball idea, using Captain Stupendous’s concept: Inflame Start the game with 3 red flame markers on this army card. Before attacking, you may remove a flame marker to add 1 to the attack value of this card. If there are no flame markers on this army card, subtract 3 from its defense value. At the end of each round, if any of your (figure name) are on a molten lava or lava field space, you may place a flame marker on this card, to a maximum of 3. Extinguish If one of your (figure name) enters a water space, remove all flame markers from this army card. Lava Resistant |

Re: [Pod 1] UNIT NAME (Blazing Firecats) - Design
The Shadows Over Innistrad set comes with some markers with a sun on them, if I'm not mistaken. I would imagine that those can work for Flame Markers, albeit they are from a separate box. It could always be left vague as to what the markers specifically are to let people use their own, like the VC designs with markers, but I think that it would be fine to plan on using some of the ones from SOI.

I really like this! Maybe to compensate for their high attack value at the beginning lower the recharge rate: The Flame Rekindled At the start of every round, before rolling for initiative, you may roll the d20. If no order markers or X order mark is placed on 'Firecats' If you roll a 1-15 you may place a single counter. ?16-19?, you may place up to two flaming counters on this card. 20 3 counters. This card can hold a maximum of four flaming counters. |
