Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
Well, again Valguard has set the precedent. There are plenty of units with less life than him but bigger, beefier frames.

Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
Well met! At Tornado’s suggestion, I present Ueshi. I’ve been back and forth with Tornado and others about the design and will be testing it in October, along with a Lawman for which I haven’t yet found a figure. UESHI (Figure is Heroclix Deadpool 001A) General: Einar Species: Human Class: Warrior Personality: Merciful Life: 5 Move: 6 Range: 3 Attack: 3 Defense: 3 Size: Medium 5 Points: 130-150 Double Assault Aikido When Ueshi would inflict enough Wounds to destroy a figure, instead leave it with one Life and roll a 20-sided die, on a roll of 1-18, remove one unrevealed Order Marker from its card; on a roll of 19-20 destroy the figure. Evasive Deflection When Ueshi or a Friendly figure adjacent to Ueshi rolls defense dice against an attack from a figure within 3 clear sight spaces of Ueshi, and a skull is rolled, roll a 20-sided die. On a roll of 15 or higher, all damage is ignored, Ueshi may move 3 spaces, and the attacking figure receives a wound. Ueshi never receives leaving engagement attacks during Evasive Deflection. Aikido applies to Evasive Deflection. Last edited by kolakoski; September 6th, 2019 at 02:58 PM. |

Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
First, I find it unlikely that a Deadpool figure would not look like Deadpool, but I could be wrong.
There is too much going on here. Range 3 is strange; it allows him to throw 20 levels high, but only a few steps away. Aikido would need a lot more words to clarify what "leave it with one Life" actually means in game terms (no, it's not that simple), which is bad for a card with so much text already. The order marker thing would need more words for commons too. Evasive Deflection is cool, but I'm pretty much against any all-encompassing defensive power because Raelin already exists, and the powers would stack. Not that I think Evasive Deflection is all that good. The biggest problem is that I see Ueshi as a poor unit. Even if he didn't cost a ton, I could instead spend points on a figure that can actually remove enemy units from the battlefield. It wouldn't be fun to play against, as Ueshi's attacks would drain turns instead of killing things, just drawing the game out without really advancing it. This would be especially annoying in endgame; Ueshi vs a couple of squaddies could not-kill each other all day. |

Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
Wait, is Double Assualt supposed to be a third power on this card? I don't see any text for it? That, and I don't remember if it's preexisting already...
Aikido. I'll be frank, this makes no sense to me. Why would you ever NOT want to kill an opponents figure?! How is removing an OM from their card more advantageous than killing them? When you think about it, it's not. In fact, they're practically the same result. Even if the figure had OM's on it's card, they would lose the turn whether you destroy them or remove the marker. EDIT: Oh...unless of course you're trying to make this ability apply to a squad figure...which I don't think it does very well. EDIT2: Just read up on Aikido...Google states it "is to end a conflict peacefully and without injury." With this in mind, I can see why you'd make the ability so easy to remove an order marker...but Gosh, that just seems really spammy. Especially because EVERYTHING in Heroscape (even the name: Battle of all Time) centers around a conflict. I don't think this unit would have much place in the canon because who would summon him if he'd prefer not to fight? I think the design is contradictory to what Heroscape is about at it's core...a conflict. Evasive Deflection is just a mouthful with a lot of stuff going on. I think it's just too much at this point.

Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
Well met! Wow! There doesn’t seem to be any part of Ueshi you like. OK, but let me explain . . . [My comments in brackets] Quote:

I really don't see 3 range here. You say you've drawn your inspiration from Elaria, but she very obviously has throwing knives (and a lot of them). This dude just looks to have run-of-the-mill swords. While we're talking about the mini, it really does look like Deadpool. I get where you're going with the OM removal power, but it's really just never going to be worth it. You have to give up a turn (not really, but you give up any attacks that could destroy anything) for a chance at making your opponent give up a turn. It just shortens a round without giving Ueshi's side an advantage. Evasive Deflection is also weird. As written, he could "deflect" a melee attack from a figure two spaces away, run three spaces directly away from the attacking figure (leaving him 5 spaces away), and then inflict a wound on the attacking figure. I'm not sure exactly what the theme of the power is supposed to be, but that interaction doesn't fit any theme I'm coming up with. |

Re: The Pre-SoV Workshop
To come into this thread, get 4 respected customs creators point out some issues, and then accuse us of being closed-minded is baffling.
I'm not sure what prejudice you think we have against you or this design. In your only submission experience with the SoV so far, you've received nothing but upvotes, and deservingly so. |
