Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs - Eradicator
I'm interested in the rationale for that.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs - Eradicator
Well, 8 (9 conditionally) attack dice at 6 range is in line with the 2 official ranged flyers in this weight class, Silver Surfer (6 Attack, 6 Range) and Thanos (6 Attack, 6 Range). Obviously, Eradicator's got more offensive punch than either of those two, but they're somewhat odd units in that they derive a lot of their value from being very survivable, between Surfer's mobility and Thanos' bonus lives.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs - Eradicator
Yeah I feel the same. Doesn't feel much better than Official Iron Man but 95 points more expensive. I think I would take Iron Man & your Tommy Monaghan or maybe Jonah Hex.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs - Eradicator
I think the design as written is more powerful than you think. At his move and range, he will have height often (so does Iron Man) and his second attack, when he gets it, could be nasty. With that said I would guesstimate his points more at about 315.

The calculator agrees with you.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs - Eradicator
No, but I would take two attacks of 4 dice over a single attack of 6 dice - which is what Surfer and Thanos offer - almost every time.
I suspect some of the dissonance here is due to that big red "S" on his chest, which is understandable; that symbol carries a lot of expectations. I picture the Eradicator as more of an "energy blast" guy rather than a "punch in the face" guy, so I used the card as an opportunity to deviate from my usual Kryptonian customs template (Heat Vision, Flying, plus a third power), but maybe a punchier middle ground is the way to go: Want to know more about C3V?

Cool, I didn't know you had a personal customs thread. Do you have a link?

Re: Sherman Davies' DC customs - Eradicator
You need to convert him for 2.0.
I wouldn't claim parentage for that one, but I do feel at least like an uncle or something (especially for the work I put into his reeval). C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.
