Tattooed Man (Mark Richards)

[Karat]

Yea

I think we could simplify a little more.

LIVING TATTOOS
You may remove 1 Ink Marker to do any of the following:
• Barbed Wire: During Tattooed Man's transition, choose a non-adjacent Small or Medium figure within 4 clear spaces. Place the chosen figure adjacent to Tattooed Man. For the rest of the turn, that figure has -1 Defense.
• Dragon: When Tattooed Man attacks normally, he has +4 Range and +1 Attack for the rest ofwhen attacking normally this activation.
• Snake: Once per round, when a Small or Medium enemy within 4 clear spaces would move, you may stop its movement.

For pastebility.

C3G STANDARD PLAYTEST FEEDBACK FORM

NAME OF THE PLAYTEST UNIT: Tattooed Man

Army Test
Map: Turtle Dojo
Units: Psimon, Cinder, Shimmer, Ravager Grant, Tattooed Man (900) vs Silvermane, Madame Masque, Hammerhead, Maggia Goons x5

Spoiler Alert!

[COLOR=red]Played this with Eric and forgot to take notes most of the way through. Got caught up in a pretty fun game. Maggia started hot and had half my team at half life end of round 1. Then Psimon started rolling well. Tattooed Man used his pull power to get folks next to Cinder and Shimmer 3 times but only once did Psimon roll well enought to take advantage and Cinder managed to take out a 2 life Hammerhead. Tattooed Man used the Dragon a few times when Folks weren't in range of the pull power but then he was able to yank Silvermane from behind his screen to set on low ground which helped to take him out.

The MVP was Madam Masque how came back twice including a clutch roll at the end game when both Psimon and Masque were at one life and I couldn't quite get her finished before the round ended. Best part was after Psimon ran out of allies he rolled high all but once and managed to have the Goons take each other out and get Masque to 1 life.

Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes):

Madama Masque: 4/4 Life left,

Units: Deathstroke HIVE, Cheshire HIVE, Cinder, Jinx, Tattoed Man (1000) vs Zemo, Archangel, Klaw, Darth Vader

Spoiler Alert!

[COLOR=red]Played this one with Bats, this final wasn't as close as it looked. Vader rolled exactly zero shields the whole game until the end. Archangel was the star here though.


Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes): Archangel 5/5, Vader 2/6 Life remaining

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY:

So Far I feel he's perfect. Very fun and much less finicky.

Feel free to wait for Eric and Bat's to post their comments but ...

I Propose we move to Final Editing.

yea

[Ericth74]

Yea I liked him in 1.0 and I still like him in 2.0.

[IAmBatman]

yea he felt good to me. I had a lot of auto wounders so might not have witnessed the full extent of his tankiness, but he felt useful without being scary.

[MrNobody]

Yea

Wording looks good. Is he HIVE faction like Cinder?

I was undecided at first and I think I'm leaning to no since he technically wasn't in HIVE just that DS team where Cinder did have a bit more involvement, his personality. For a character with not many stories he's been everywhere. Good Guy, Bad Guy, morally grey area. Personality and class works with DS but I guess technically he's not getting the bonus in Psimon builds. Which I did play him as in HIVE in my Psimon game...dang.

I don't need him to work with Psimon for the record. And HIVE is a stretch here I think.

Willing to hear opinions on this.

[IAmBatman]

Looks like his earliest team was Secret Society of Supervillains, so maybe Injustice faction?

That could be interesting. He'd still work with Deathstroke in HIVE which works for me and he'd have another team to play with which lessens the issue with losing the Psimon side of the faction.

I could roll with that.

Anything else here?
