The Book of Stature

With the figure being large though, shouldn't it start Large? Maybe the way to go is reverse the mechanic, though that seems counter-intuitive.

Whichever way we take the mechanic, I'd rather she starts small. Otherwise, it will take an OM to shrink her down, basically making Carried worthless unless you're on a very large map.

Why not do two cards and let here switch ala Beast Boy or billy Batson/Captain Marvel or something? One Tiny and One Large. Two for one. Let the player decide which starts.

[B]NAME = STATURE
SECRET IDENTITY = CASSANDRA LANG

Size Tiny 2

PYM PARTICLE TRANSFORMATION
You may draft one other Cassandra Lang figure that does not have the size of tiny. Choose which figure will start the game on the battlefield. Immediately after revealing a numbered Order Marker on this card, you may switch any Cassandra Lang figure you control on the battlefield with one other Cassandra Lang figure in your army. Switched figures will not take any leaving engagement attacks. You can control only one Cassandra Lang figure on the battlefield at a time. If any Cassandra Lang figure is destroyed, remove this Cassandra Lang from the game.

Even though the individual cards may not be something new and ground breaking it would be interesting to switch back and forth as the situation dictated...Do you want Tiny Stealth or a bigger attack.

That's a cool suggestion, but there isn't a miniature for tiny sized Stature. And without a mini we can't do a card.

[japes]

I use an empty base for my Ant-man so I didn't think about the mini. Got the idea from the Shrinking Violet herocix.

[TrollBrute]

Yeah, I'd love to do two separate cards, but without a tiny-szie mini, our options are limited.

It'd pretty much require a Shrinking Violet repaint.

The shrinking violet I was speaking of is the empty dial version...the one without a figure just a white dot. It gave me the idea to proxy Atom and Ant man with an empty base...not relevant here but wanted to clarify.

Anyone object to this version?

While the Pym Marker is on this card, Stature's Size and Height are considered to be Tiny 2, she subtracts two from her Move, Attack and Defense Numbers and she cannot use her Gigantic Reach or Super Strength special powers. Stature may only use her Tiny Stealth and Carried special powers while she is Tiny.

One other lingering issue is her Personality. Neither johnny or I feel quite right with Conflicted. Is Emotional too one the nose?

Looks good, but I'm going to stand up for the Oxford comma here.

Emotional is so-so. Why is she emotional? Is it anger? Is it anxiety? Something else?

Emotional works for me. Some other possibilities (borrowing from existing ones): Awkward, Compassionate, Eager, Enthusiastic, Innocent, Insecure, Naive, Self-Doubting.
