Should we have more destructible objects?

[DEATHWALKER]

I think yes because I think the Fortress Door is getting lonely

I think no because I don't want another Fortress Door. :P

Finally, a non deathwalker post and a very good topic at that !

I definately want some more destructible objects. I think trees should be destructabele.

Bloody's messin' with ya'!!

Plus Breakable Wall Section from MarvelScape can keep the door from being lonely. By the way hasn't this been discussed before?

No, not really. No one in their right mind will attack the Breakable Wall Section in favor of attacking a real unit.

I think they need to come up with some castle wall sections that are destructible

I've been toying with the idea of destructable trees...something along the lines of only huge and massive creatures can hurt them or a fire based power. Line of sight that can be destroyed leaving you enemy no quarter!!!

Well, Deathwalkers are extremely destructible objects according to the plain meaning of the words.

Yeah, right.

It all depends on what choice the mapmaker offers. If it's a choice between using Thanos to attack the wall and flying him to the top of the wall to attack an enemy with height, the wall is going to be around for a while. If it's a choice between breaking into a fortress through the wall or through the door, that's another story. If people won't attack the wall in your games, it just means the alternate choice is too attractive.

Why would you ever want to make the names of powers matter? "Fire-based powers only" is like something from another game altogether.

I would like more but I didn't vote for it becuase whenever I see an option like "I don't care" or "Why are you making a poll?" or "I just want more hs!" I go for them.

You might not have known, but because of how a trees fibers are bullets don't do much against them without using massive amounts, swords don't have the effectiveness of an axe regardless of their sharpness, and axes take a good bit of time to get through a tree. I could alter what I said to include everthing like you seem to be implying, but then I'd have to increase the tree's life or defense (both most likely) to an annoyingly high level to still have some amount of truth to it, or I can keep it as it is and just go with what's more realistic for attacking a tree...something that's bigger than it or something that burns it/blows it up. It's just going by my own experience of chopping down trees and cutting wood, but why would we want any kind of realism?

Syvarris uses his second attack on the tree...roll...and the tree is destroyed.

Yeah, I'm aware of all that, thanks.

I'm not against the huge figures part, or about making it difficult for ordinary guns and swords to destroy a tree. I am against making distinctions based on a special attack's name.
