Re: The Book of Bodyguard

NAME = BODYGUARD


SPECIES = HUMAN
UNIQUENESS = COMMON HERO
CLASS = CRIMINAL
PERSONALITY = PROFESSIONAL

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 1

MOVE = 5
RANGE = 1
ATTACK = 3
DEFENSE = 4

POINTS = 15


SECURITY DETAIL
After revealing an Order Marker on the Army Card of a Unique Hero you control that is a Crime Lord or Mastermind, instead of moving that hero, you may move up to 3 Bodyguards you control up to 5 spaces each. A Bodyguard moved by Security Detail will take leaving engagement attacks.

Or if their defense was knocked down to 3, their cost can go down to 15. I don't think they are meant to be much of an offensive threat at all, but more of a way to help Lex and some other Crimelords or Masterminds. Kind of shielding fodder maybe or tying up melee units at the end of a game if the opponent gets close to Crime Lord or Mastermind.

Either way, I don't think they'd be the types for hordes of them like Moloids, more of a posse to hang and protect Lex, Madame Hydra or some others.

I was only meaning the power would add a die to their defense not their attack. Just to help them have a bit of staying power. I agree they aren't & shouldn't be offensive type characters. But a defense of 4 seems too high thematically.

Cheers

Re: The Book of Bodyguard

Hmm, my only concern is if there is a crime lord/mastermind with a power of his own that lets him replace his movement with something else, we'll have two such powers in effect...a FAQ about only using once replacing special power at a time should cover it though.

Re: The Book of Bodyguard

Why don't these guys have range? What kind of bodyguard doesn't carry at least a pistol? Why would Black Mask or Penguin carry a gun, but these guys don't? Makes no sense to me. I like everything else though. Nice work, Griff!

Re: The Book of Bodyguard

I agree, Spidey! Range to 5, defense to 3, keep 'em at 20, and I think they're good to go!
Happy to see these guys finally being made, since they're the harbingers of Kingpin!
Oh, and I'd much prefer Loyal or Disciplined as personalities. Subservient sounds like a bit much. I mean, they're getting paid, they're not like worshiping anyone they're guarding.

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

Re: The Book of Bodyguard

I'd keep the 4 defense, what with body armor and everything...

I definitely agree with the ranged attack.

Re: The Book of Bodyguard

I got confused when I saw a new "Book of . . ." thread and thought I had missed the entire Design | ERB | Playtest | Final Editing | Release process.

But all of the proposed modifications sound good.

EDIT: Thank you, Griffin.

I know that I do not know.

Re: The Book of Bodyguard - Design Phase ;-)

My view on the lack of range; If every criminal has a range of 5 (gun), it is sorta boring and lame IMO.

My view on the defense of 4; The idea behind these guys is that they are really only intended to be a meat shield. This offers the criminal faction something they need and something interesting in terms of game play. Thematically, I could see them having a bulletproof vest under the suit, and also just being a bit tougher than the average criminal, plus this figure is a tad on the large side.

Overall, I would just like some freaking variety. I don't want all the criminals to be that similar, so my decision is more about game play and personal aesthetics, but democracy rules, and all I can do is make my case and put it to a vote, even though I doubt that I have changed anyone's mind.

Do you prefer a range of
A
1
or
B 5

Do you prefer a defense of
C
3
or
D 4


I vote A and D
