The Book of Stature
The Book of Stature C3G MARVEL WAVE 27 YOUNG MARVELS Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Avengers set. Its model number and name are #011 / Stature. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - Cassie Lang was born with a heart condition. An attempt to cure this condition led to her father, Scott Lang, stealing Hank Pym's equipment, becoming the second Ant-Man, and joining the Avengers. Growing up around this new environment exposed Cassie not only to a life of heroism, but also to Pym Particles, which she stole from her father's lab. The effect the Pym Particles would have on her did not display themselves until Cassie, along with Kate Bishop, attempted to join Iron Lad's new team of Young Avengers. The group denied her membership, until the anger Cassie felt at this led to her growing in size. Adopting the codename Stature, Cassie became a full-fledged and well-loved member of the team. During this time, she grew very close to Iron Lad, and was saddened when he returned to the future. Her tenure with the Young Avengers eventually came to a violent end. Stature brought her father forward in time to prevent his death, only to see him apparently struck down by Doctor Doom. In a fit of rage, Stature charged the supervillain, and was killed. Shortly after this, the first Young Avengers team disbanded. However, in a period where his evil nature was inverted, Doctor Doom felt remorse over his killing of Cassie, and revived her through magical means. Cassie now tries to live the life of a normal teenage girl, but she will always be a hero, and in her heart she is still Stature. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Stature - Design Phase
NAME = STATURE
SECRET IDENTITY = CASSANDRA LANG SPECIES = MUTATE UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = ROOKIE PERSONALITY = INSECURE SIZE/HEIGHT = HUGE 8 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 7 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 5 DEFENSE = 6 POINTS = 160 PYM PARTICLE TRANSFORMATION Start the game with a red Pym Marker. At the start of the game, and after revealing an Order Marker on this card, you may place or remove the Pym Marker. While the Pym Marker is on this card, Stature's size and height are considered to be tiny 2; she subtracts two from her Move, Attack and Defense numbers; and she cannot use her Gigantic Reach or Super Strength special powers. Stature may only use her Tiny Stealth and Carried special powers while she is tiny. GIGANTIC REACH Stature may add 1 to her range when attacking a figure whose base is no more than 6 levels higher than her height or 6 levels lower than her base. CARRIED Before moving a friendly adjacent figure that is not tiny, if Stature is not engaged with any tiny figure, you may choose that figure for Stature's Carried special power. After moving the chosen figure, you may place Stature on any unoccupied space adjacent to the chosen figure. TINY STEALTH Stature is never in clear sight of non-adjacent enemy figures and she only takes leaving engagement attacks from tiny figures.

This is the first of many Young Avengers designs to come. The faction should have lots of synergy, so I'm starting with a design that doesn't offer any to other parts of the faction, though Carried should help her play nicely with them. Are we all happy with the Class of Rookie? I know there have been some objections in the past, but it's my favorite option for the Young Avengers. Giant Reach, yea or nay? I'd be fine with switching it out with Giant Defense or another power to represent her larger form. Or even dropping it for another "tiny form" power to let her be more useful when she's small, and letting her stats represent her larger form.

Also, it still says "Atom" at the end of Carried when it should be "Stature". C3G: Taking Superheroes to a Whole New Level! C3V: The Legacy of Classic 'Scape! Viegon & Family's Classic Customs, Maps, and Battlefield Videos. Enjoy App Games? Try A Day in the Life of Atlas! |

Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those. |

Re: The Book of Stature - Design Phase
I don't have a problem with Rookie. I believe A3n was the biggest objector to that sort of thing.
A few notes: - I think she should be Cassie Lang rather than Cassandra; that's how she tends to be known. - Not 100% sure Conflicted works for her. She's tends to veer between angry and depressed, which is nominally conflicted, but I feel different implications from the word. I think something more emotion-based feels right for the character. - She very rarely shrinks in my experience, so I think it being a bit cumbersome to utilize her shrinking is more a feature than a bug. I'd like to keep that if possible. - That being said, we don't necessarily need to drop her Defense when she shrinks; most other Tiny units have 5-6 Defense to represent their dodging. I could go either way on it. - I kind of wish we could somehow integrate the link between her emotions and her size, but... I think it'd get too fiddly. I think a simpler design suits a character of her stature (no pun intended!). JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Yeah, I feel it's a lot of complexity for a little theme. From what I remember, her emotions only affected her size in a single issue, and even that wasn't part of the main storyline.

Re: The Book of Stature - Design Phase
I really wish there were a tiny figure for her available. I like the design overall, but it just seems like it'll feel unthematic to have the huge figure on the map and consider her "tiny" in the moment. (Of course, this already occurs with the Shrinking Ray, so I suppose that ship has sailed).
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Stature - Design Phase
The emotion thing continues but in a more subtle way - she grows when she's angry and pushes beyond her limits when she's REALLY angry. The whole "shrinking violet" problem was a one-off though. But yeah it's relatively minor for the complexity it'd add.
