Godzilla and friends

[IAmBatman]

Are we going to have any 99 level buildings?

[quozl]

Only 99 balloons.

EARTH-SHATTERING STOMP
Instead of moving normally with Godzilla, you may place him on any space up to 4 spaces away from his current placement. After doing so, you may roll an unblockable attack die against every figure adjacent to Godzilla, or you may reveal an 'X' order marker to roll 2 unblockable attack dice against every figure adjacent to Godzilla. If a figure that is not Huge receives a wound from Earth-Shattering Stomp, you may move that figure up to 1 space. Godzilla may not move more than 8 levels up or down with a single stomp, and will not take leaving engagement attacks from figures that are not Huge.

ATOMIC BREATH SPECIAL ATTACK
Range Special. Attack 4.
Choose an opponent's figure within 8 clear sight spaces of Godzilla as the target figure. Choose all figures on the spaces of a shortest path from Godzilla to the target figure. The target figure, all the chosen figures on that path, and any figures adjacent to the target figure are affected by Atomic Breath Special Attack. Godzilla only needs a clear sight shot at the chosen figure. Roll 4 attack dice once for all affected figures. Each figure rolls defense dice separately. If a figure receives one or more wounds from this special attack, roll an unblockable attack die against the defending figure.

GIGANTIC REACH
Godzilla may add 1 to his range when attacking a figure whose base is no more than 6 levels higher than his height or 6 levels lower than his base.

ROAR AND CHARGE 12
If Godzilla is not engaged, instead of moving normally with Godzilla, you may roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 12 or higher, you may move Godzilla up to 6 spaces and figures roll 2 fewer defense dice when defending against Godzilla's normal attack this turn.

ATOMIC FIRE LINE SPECIAL ATTACK
Range Special. Attack 4.
Choose 8 spaces in a straight line from Godzilla. All figures on those spaces who are in line of sight are affected by this special attack. Roll 4 attack dice once for all affected figures. Affected figures roll defense dice separately. If a figure receives one or more wounds from this special attack, roll an unblockable attack die against the defending figure.

KING OF MONSTERS
If Godzilla has inflicted at least one wound this round, all Huge figures you control within clear sight of Godzilla add 1 to their attack number and all opponent's Huge figures within clear sight of Godzilla subtract 1 from their attack numbers.

Not sold on any of this at all, so feel free to toss it out. Just some ideas to get the ball rolling.

Margloth has a pretty sweet Godzilla design.

[IAmBatman]

I wonder if the event version should specify that you cannot move him normally?

[Lazy Orang]

Not sure that's necessary - I think everyone in Classic pretty much accepted there's no moving the Hive even if you pick up the move glyph (Valda, was it?)

[IAmBatman]

Even if he starts/ends his move on road or one of several C3G figures gives him passive movement of 2 to 4 spaces?

Does the Hive have an instead of moving normally power that would imply it can move normally?

[Lazy Orang]

Nope, it doesn't.

[Lazy Orang]

Ah, okay, I was sort of wrong. Nothing on the Hive's card states that, but bonus rules for the Hive apparently exist in the Rulebook (which I'd completely forgotten)

There are a few rules that apply only to the Marro Hive. The Marro Hive may never be moved from its starting location by any special power on any Army Card or Glyph. Figures can never move through a space occupied by the Marro Hive. For example, Shiori cannot use her Phantom Walk special power to walk through the Hive. If the Marro Hive was placed on the battlefield by a player as part of his army, when it is destroyed remove the Hive and the 6-hex swamp water tile base. If the Marro Hive was placed on the battlefield as directed by a scenario, when it is destroyed remove the Hive and leave the 6-hex swamp water tile base on the battlefield. When placing the Marro Hive, it is always placed on its 6-hex swamp water tile base. When placing the 6-hex swamp water tile base, you cannot create an overhang (no empty space can be under the base). The 6hex base can only be placed on land tiles. When calculating height advantage against or for the Marro Hive, consider the Hive to be sitting in the swamp water.

The way I see it, we have two options:

1. We could try to better clarify it in the power text

2. We could go full Galactus (the figure size justifies it) and give it a small rulebook for its movement.

I'd go this way. I'd like to establish the ability to move figures that are larger than 2 spaces, and Godzilla feels like a good iconic benchmark/launchpad figure for such a mechanic, in the same way Galactus was for terrain removal (even though that mechanic's been used, what, once since? It's a cool idea, wouldn't mind seeing it more. In fact, a figure I designed for my bro implements it. ).

[IAmBatman]

Would it really be establishing how all figures of that size move or just how he moves? I ask because Galactus is that size and yet we're still looking for that template.
