Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
I'd just make it so blanks count as shields.

Oh, and I'd like to see the SA bumped to 3 Attack. 2 Attack is pretty much useless in C3G. Even with the movement, 3 Would make it much more useful.

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
I noticed that Star-Lord was boosted too and made sure to discount that. I intend to limit it to 5 clear sight spaces if it proves too powerful, but clear sight to begin with sounds good to me.
We could go up to 3 Attack if that makes sense. I didn't get much mileage out of Distracting Fire for damage, but it got him (and other people) moving, which was the real utility. Any suggestions for good units to include in an army with him? JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
Sounds good.

Hawkeye (II) would be a nice choice to get Star-Lord out into the battle where his SA will shine. Kid Flash is a good tag-along too, Attack and Defense boosts are big for him and he can move alongside your heroes without needing an OM.

Good stuff, TB.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
Great stuff - I didn't notice he and Ms. Marvel overlapped class-wise, since I was focusing on Species, which means the one advantage he gave in the last test was technically an illegal move.

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
Spartoi definitely won't hold him back any on this one. It's nice that he's limited to one Human, one Mutant, and one Mutate, though.

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
C3G INITIAL PLAYTEST FEEDBACK FORM
NAME OF THE TEST UNIT Star-Lord - THEME TEST/ Check to see if there are any powers or stats on the test unit card that does not accurately reflect the theme or likeness of what the character would and could do. Also consider destructible objects, and whether or not this characters powers should affect them. PASS - MIRROR TEST/ Check to see if the unit were played against itself, if there would be any loops that would upset the balance of the Game. PASS - BONDING TEST/ Compare the unit card with all possible currently existing Bonding abilities to make sure there are no continual Bonding possibilities that do not stop appropriately or do not stop at all. This is to prevent loops in Bonding. PASS - SYNERGIES TEST/ Compare the unit card with all possible currently existing synergies to make sure there are no factors that could break the game by making any unit too powerful or too weak. PASS - POWER CHECK/ Consider the test unit and all existing units and all glyphs to compare to and check for any powers that could be over amplified and break the game. Each power must define when it takes place, who or what it affects, and What are the stipulations on the power if there are any. PASS - FUN TEST/ Consider whether or not the design was fun to play. PASS (BIG improvement compared to the first run!) - FUN COMPETITIVE TEST/ Consider whether or not the design was fun to play against. PASS - DRAFTING TEST/ Consider whether or not this design is worth drafting. PASS - USAGE TEST/ Consider whether or not all of the powers on this card were used or at least usable. PASS - STRATEGY TEST/ Consider whether or not the design offers any real strategy or interesting tactics to the overall game. PASS Army Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? YES! - What should be the unit's point value? ~250 POINTS - Give a brief overview. Okay, without the adjacency clause - and with Distracting Fire boosted a bit - Star-Lord becomes a leader to believe in! There's nothing here that couldn't be done with Captain America, but Distracting Fire provides great support, even if Peter himself isn't as able a combatant. Map: Ruins of Pine Tree Marsh Units: Star-Lord, Punisher, Enchantress, Zatanna (1000 Points) vs. Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Spider-Man: Peter Parker, Jewel, Human Torch (1000 Points)
Spoiler Alert!
_____________________________________________________________ Army Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? YES! - What should be the unit's point value? 220-240 POINTS - Give a brief overview. The boost from Tactics did some real damage, but again, Distracting Fire was the real hero here, moving units around and dealing the stray wound to Scarlet Witch. He's a helluva leader, very fun to play. Map: Ruins of Pine Tree Marsh Units: Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Wonder Man (1000 Points) vs. Professor X, Rogue, Scarlet Witch, Cyclops (995 Points)
Spoiler Alert!
_____________________________________________________________ FINAL THOUGHTS: Big improvement power-wise, definitely mid-200s. I think bringing Distracting Fire back down to 2 would help keep him down a bit (as-is it's too consistent - it's not that 85% is ridiculously consistent, but I prefer it at 75% with less chance to wound (wounds should be a happy accident there - it's really no meant to be an attack). And I think a range of 5 on Ragtag Tactics would be good, too - it wouldn't have made a difference in either game, I think, but it shoudl keep things interesting. I think with those changes down, 230 sounds good, with even that being a bit high. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
He was played at 200 in those tests? Yeah, with those changes I could see 220-230.

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
Agreed. Though I'd go 6 spaces for the range on Ragtag Tactics, because that's the range for Cap's power and I think it'll be easier to remember as a result.

Re: The Book of Star-Lord (Design Phase)
I don't think I actually play him that way, I was just misremembering. Still, 6 spaces seems like a more common range restriction for these powers than 5 ....
