Heroes of Fiction: Design Thread

[Confred]

@CJtheMighty The most current unofficial mockup, ready for playtesting is:


FAQ: Water Fear Fighting 'activates' the 'attack step', which gives no time for Improvised Weapons to trigger.

Are we going to use the mini pictured above as the offical figure of choice for ookla?

Yes

Playtest vs random figures of similar Points:
DW8k: Won with 5 Life remaining. The 6 attack is impressive, but Agent Carr also swings 6.
Kaemon Awa: Lost with KmA at 1 Life remaining. His drawback is vs single heroes. None of his powers come into play and he's essentially Agent Carr with +20Pts +2Life -1Def; and I'm ok with that.

I need to test him on a map with a door or something. and vs squads.

I'm good with him being a Squad killer, assuming then Thundarr is the hero killer, and Ariel the support. Pod effectiveness.

I'm maybe thinking instead of Breaking And Throwing Squad figures, he should break Common figures.

[JC McMinis]

I like this. Common heroes are just as expendable as squads and it protects the unique squads from this fate.

I'm fine with that

That's what I was thinking and it would explain why every now and then he doesn't do his trademark move.

BREAK AND THROW
Before attacking, you may choose one Common figure or Destructible Object that is adjacent to Ookla, and destroy it to add 3 to Ookla's Range value.

Just straight up destroy destructible objects? Fortress door says what? I've got all that health and auto shields you can't just destroy me for free.

Have you seen the source material? He rips up reinforced doors and heavy gates nearly every episode. He is beast and I think that utility would be a reason to draft him.
I'm willing to adjust points to reflect.

Gotta admit I haven't seen the source material.
