It’d be cool to tie her into a potential Nextwave faction. I think we maybe discussed keying that off a Defiant personality, but that discussion never went too far.

It's also slightly more advantageous to choose at that point, but that's not a big difference.

I've got no problem with either of these ideas.

At least she goes after Demons, Lycans, Large and Huge as well so not completely niche.

I agree about Undead being pretty weak right now, but I don't see Elsa without something against them. It is only once per round, and like you said, she's can do stuff against other figures so she's not strictly a undead killer.

I really need to get around to reading the Nextwave run, but I'd be down to see them as a faction. Would a Defiant personality work for all of the members?

[Lord Pyre]

Nextwave is a hoot. I have some old writeups for the whole team somewhere around there. I also don't think they're a team that needs specific synergy, but I'm also of the mind that not every single team ever needs it. Defiant seems like a stretch to me.

For Elsa, definitely feels about right, but as a character I don't really see her on par with Punisher. I imagine her mid 100's.

[MrNobody]

I think there's definitely value in the idea of just having a Monica that's a solid leader and pulls them together. Defiant personality would work I think, but it also means you can't represent each character's strong individual personality.

[Lord Pyre]

Monica would be fine as a generalist leader, too.

Also I'm biased but there's some very unthematic pulls for Defiant.

[MrNobody]

Well to be fair, she was in seemingly permanent design limbo when we last talked about the team.

Maybe a generalist leader Monica, and then an Aaron and the Captain that key in on what the rest of the team are doing? (So not direct synergy, but ensuring they're good drafts with the rest of the crew.) Make them fit in at an even point value and that should be enough.

[Lord Pyre]

Feel free to steal my drafts wherever they may be, definitely not something I'm planning on pursuing anymore. I think I had rough stuff for everyone BUT Monica. Partially since I was trying to make her a minor leader.

My only huge request is using the skull and crossbones grawlix on The Captain somewhere.

Either before moving or after moving and before attacking(but not both!), you may move all figures that are not Huge, that are within 5 spaces of King Ghidora two spaces. Figures moved by this special power will not take leaving engagement attacks and may not be place closer to King Ghidora.

THREE HEADED SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 3 Attack 7
After attacking with this special attack, if there are 6? or fewer wound markers on this card, King Ghidora may attack two additional times, if there are 7? or more wound markers on this card, King Ghidora may attack one additional time. King Ghidora may not attack the same figure more than once per turn with this special attack unless that figure is Huge.

I'd just use the Fen Hydra wording to simplify:

THREE HEADED SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 3 Attack 7
When King Ghidora attacks with this special attack, he may attack up to 3 times. Reduce the number of times King Ghidora may attack by 1 for every 4 wound markers on this Army Card. King Ghidora may not attack the same figure more than once per turn with this special attack unless that figure is Huge.

With Cap & Star Lord only boosting Unique Heroes and King G being an Event Hero, I still think you could get away with the 3 bite attacks being a normal one here. Not too worried about Bane boosting him, and as big as he is he won't always get grab high ground. Then you could do something crazy powerful for the Gravity Beams attack if it were a SA. With Godzilla being a 1000 point figure, I'm guessing King G would be at least 1000 points as well. It took Godzilla a couple of tries to beat him in the last movie. Something like this:

NAME = KING GHIDORAH
SPECIES = KAIJU
UNIQUENESS = EVENT HERO
CLASS = DESTROYER
PERSONALITY = CRUEL

SIZE/HEIGHT = HUGE 2O

LIFE = 15

MOVE = 7
RANGE = 3
ATTACK = 7
DEFENSE = 7

POINTS = 1000+

GRAVITY BEAMS SPECIAL ATTACK

King Ghidorah may only use this Special Attack once per round.

Nice! Super excited to see a King Ghidorah design so soon after Godzilla. Keep me in mind when it's time to play test King Ghidorah!

This design is similar in spirit to a design I had started on (but never finished). I always thought it would be cool for a "Three-Headed Monster" ability to give King Ghidorah the ability to attack up to three times and allow for attacking non-adjacent figures even if King Ghidorah was engaged as long as King Ghidorah attacks at least one adjacent figure (if engaged).

[Yodaking]

Yeah, Godzilla and Kong have sparked some excitement for more. King G is all Tornado here though, I was just offering some alternative options with how to proceed.
