GLYPH OF UTILITY: KRYPTONITE GAUNTLETS
(Kryptonian Defense Reduction)

EQUIPMENT GLYPH
When this figure attacks an adjacent Kryptonian figure with a normal attack, the defending Kryptonian rolls 3 fewer defense dice.

[Hahma]

Wow, Metallo with 3+ wounds is going to reduce Supe's defense by 5 when equipped with these puppies, and no Kryptonian Defense for Supes

As Lex would say, "Someone needs to bring that alien down a notch!"

[IAmBatman]

Yep ... I could see making it only -2 if folks think that's too much ... I'm starting to think it might be. I want it to be enough to bother with, though, so it needs to be more than -1, IMO.

Also, Supes can use that big attack to knock them off pretty easily against most foes.

[IAmBatman]

I figured the best bet here was to try to make the gauntlets look green in art ...

Yeah and if Metallo has 3+ wounds already to get his K Glyph flipped over, then he's practically got one foot in the grave, but then again, if Supes has a few wounds on him then it could be really fun

Looks solid. Nothing to add here. Testing will show if -3 is too much.

[A3n]

I like it, see how it tests if -3 is too much then it's an easy change.

[IAmBatman]

Cool. I'll stay -3 for now then.

[Griffin]

-3 is preferable for me as well.

[IAmBatman]

Well if you're not worried about Supes, I'm not!

[Griffin]

I figure if we want people to bring this glyph along as insurance for Batman, it better have enough power to convince them it is a good idea.
