Re: The Book of Riddler (II) - Breathing Period
NAME = THE RIDDLER
SECRET IDENTITY = EDWARD NASHTON SPECIES = HUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = MISFIT PERSONALITY = INSANE SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 5 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 3 DEFENSE = 4 POINTS = 160 PERILOUS PUZZLE At the start of the game, choose an opponent's Unique Hero and a number between 3 and 7 to be the Answer. Secretly write down the Answer. At the end of round X, even if Riddler is destroyed, you must reveal the Answer and roll X unblockable attack dice against the chosen Hero, where X is equal to the chosen number. DROPPING HINTS When a figure you control would be destroyed by an enemy Unique Hero's adjacent attack, that opponent may choose not to place any wounds and instead choose a Unique Hero they control and a number between 3 and 7 to be their Guess. If their Guess is the same as the Answer, you must reveal the Answer and immediately remove it from the game. GENIUS ESCAPE When the Riddler rolls defense dice against an opponent's normal attack: • if at least 2 shields are rolled, the Riddler takes no damage and may immediately move up to 2 spaces. He will not take any leaving engagement attacks. • if at least 2 skulls were rolled and the attacking figure is within 5 clear sight spaces of the Riddler, it receives one wound. You may choose which effect to use first. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Riddler (II) - Breathing Period
I like the changes made from the last chance thread. Dropping hints is simplified and looks like a lot of fun. You'll really want to engage him before attacking him.
Should it only grant the bonus for unique/event heroes engaged with Riddler? |

Keep in mind that your opponent will want to Overkill Joker to try and get as many chances of matching the slip as possible.

True. Will probably need to FAQ that. I will probably allow it, though, because I’m not worried he will be too weak. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Riddler (II) - Breathing Period
Shoot, meant to change the Class and Personality to match 1.0 (for future Quiz and Query).
Any thoughts on cost? C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Riddler (II) - Breathing Period
FWIW, I don't see why Query and Echo (or Quiz and Query, I forget which one is their official comic name) couldn't just key in on Edward Nashton.
My worry is that his primary strategy will be to hide as far back in your SZ as possible and just try to avoid getting hit completely until the power triggers. If that ends up feeling bad, maybe we could limit it so he has to be within 10 spaces of the chosen figure to use the power? |

Like I think the point of playing him is really all about the one choice you make, the risk reward of it, and trying to protect him long enough to pay it off. But if you invest too many resources into doing that, it might prevent you from being competitive otherwise, and it might not really pay off in the long run. Like how many points do you really want to pour into getting an average of three auto-wounds at the end of Round 6? Riddler's not really a combatant. Not primarily. Yet he has a huge effect on how his opponents act and sends them scrambling. That's the feel I'm going for here. Edit: and on the Nashton front, kind of wondering if we should go Nigma here?

Re: The Book of Riddler (II) - Breathing Period
I mean, it'd be a bit weird to have the two Riddlers be playable at the same time, so I'm assuming we'd also update Riddler I.
My concern about the SZ sit-around isn't about him being a man of action, it's more just that I worry it'll make him too hard to get to without considerable effort, especially on bigger maps. I mean even with a game-changing figure like Oracle, I often don't find myself taking her out until the last few rounds, just cause she's often so hard to get to. If I'm the opponent, devote all my resources to getting to Riddler on time, and then still kill him without solving the riddle, I'm going to be a little salty. I figure playtesting will prove if that's how it feels or not, just wanted to mention a suggestion right off the bat. (Heh, Bat.) |

Re: The Book of Riddler (II) - Breathing Period
It's a valid concern. I'm thinking of shifting to rounds 3-7 (now that some corners have assured me that the top end isn't as powerful as I feared) to give you three full rounds to "question" him if he decides to pop off early. If you don't manage to get him in that time, oh well, the upside isn't that powerful, IMO. I do think that's enough room for people to have a reasonable chance, though.
Also, per Soundwarp's anti-cheese squad suggestions, I'm going to toggle Dropping Hints to make sure he drops hints even if people destroy their own Riddler. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.
