The Book of Mon-El
The Book of Mon-El C3G DC PUBLIC EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION 20 FUTURE VISION Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Superman and the Legion of Superheroes set. Its model number and name are #005b / Mon-El. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - Mon-El is a Daxamite superhero inspired by Superboy. His powers are very similar, although he is vulnerable to lead instead of Kryptonite. Superboy put him in the Phantom Zone when Mon-El was fatally poisoned, and Mon-El stayed there until Brainiac 5 discovered a cure in the 30th Century. This lead Mon-El to become a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes. When the villain Glorith temporarily erased Superboy from time, Mon-El took his position in history. In this new Glorithverse, Mon-El began his career at L.E.G.I.O.N. with the name of Valor. The Valor legacy made him a religious idol in the future where he arrived. He has also been a member of the Green Lantern Corps and the Justice League. His longest romantic partner is Shadow Lass. During New Krypton, he temporarily replaced Superman as the protector of Metropolis. (DC Database) _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
NAME = MON-EL
SECRET IDENTITY = LAR GAND SPECIES = DAXAMITE UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = LEGIONNAIRE PERSONALITY = VALIANT SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 7 MOVE = 7 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 6 DEFENSE = 7 POINTS = 390 HEAT VISION SPECIAL ATTACK Range 4. Attack 2 + Special. Choose a figure to attack and roll 2 attack dice, or 3 attack dice if the chosen figure is an Android or destructible object. For each skull rolled, roll one additional attack die. Continue rolling an additional attack die for each additional skull rolled until no skulls are rolled. The defending figure rolls defense normally. INSPIRATIONAL VALOR If Mon-El inflicts a wound on an opponent's figure with a normal or special attack, all other Legionnaires you control are considered Inspired for the remainder of the round. Inspired Legionnaires add 1 to their Attack and Defense numbers. DAXAMITE DEFENSE When rolling defense dice against a normal attack from a figure that is not a Kryptonian or Daxamite, if at least one shield is rolled, all blanks rolled count as additional shields.

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
Okay, here's my initial thoughts;
1.I lowered his life to put him closer to Superboy's level. I'm not against further stat drops, but he is basically a Kryptonian so I want to keep him in that general area. 2. I'm hoping I can get him to 340 so he can be an alternative to Clark in a lot of builds. (That was his role in the comics for a long time too so it fits.) 3. I really want to try to get Daxamite Defense back in there again, if possible. It just feels so thematically correct to me. 4. I believe Spidey was saying he'd want Inspirational Valor to be more like a viking spirit and only apply to one figure. I could see that happening, and it might be a bit OP as is. 5. Lead Antidote might not be 100% thematically accurate. He generally doesn't carry it on him as far as I remember, and only needs to take it every 24 hours. However, I do think the lead weakness is a big thematic element that needs to be covered in some manner. I'm happy with how it works now but I wanted to throw it out there in case it would be a problem. 6. Speaking of Lead Antidote, I'm thinking of dropping it down to 2 wounds instead of 3. Thoughts? EDIT: There are two Mon-El minis. Ronin has pics of one, but it's the second one I really want. I'll link Ronin's pics for now but I want to change to the other one if I can. I'll see about purchasing it, but I'm not sure yet. |

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
What did you have for Daxamite Defense?
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

DAXAMITE DEFENSE
When rolling defense against a normal attack from a figure that is not a Kryptonian or Daxamite, if at least one shield is rolled, all blanks rolled count as extra shields. |

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
Don't forget to link new design threads in promotions and welcome threads.
I'm not ready to make my own comments, but I will share that @A3n expressed an interest in keeping all Legionairres to 2 powers, except for Ultra Boy. He can speak more on this, but I wanted to share that insight from an earlier conversation. Like Superheroes and Comics?

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
I'll echo Scapey's sharing of A3N's comments. As the primary mastermind behind the Legionnaires we have, I think his comments should carry some extra weight. I think 2 powers would be really nice and fit the aesthetic, but I think 3 is OK if the powers are shorter or familiar. (i.e. Heat Vision SA)

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
Agreed. Short and concise or vetted would be best.

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
Okay, I'm generally against a hard 2 power limit because I think it won't be the most beneficial thing for every Legionnaire. Ultra Boy is the big one, but there are a few others where I think 2 powers would hold back the design. Also, Superboy has 3 so it's already a rule that's been broken, sort of.
However, if that's the angle everyone wants to go with for Mon-El, what if we ditched Heat Vision and rolled Daxamite Defense and Lead Antidote into a single Daxamite power? |

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
I'd roll Daxamite Defense and Lead Antidote into one power. If you riff off of Kryptonian Defense it will feel familiar and still work to make it new. I think the Valor power if made more similar to the Vikings would also feel familiar and then you would be able to get your 3 powers. IMO, no way this card gets 4 powers.
For that combo, maybe something like this: Quote:

Re: Book of Mon-El (Breathing Period)
It's not a, he can't have 3 powers, just trying to maintain the aesthetic. Which is to say to keep the number of 3 power designs to a minimum and if there are 3 to keep them fairly simple and concise.
By the way, I'm loving your ideas for simplifying him |

That would've been my suggestion.
