A fairly solid army crushed by the power of Oracle. Ravage didn’t do much here, because he was pretty solidly outclassed by the other heavy hitters on his team. He was able to hold a key piece of height and fire some rockets off, but Hellboy came in with an abnormally lucky Oracle-powered punch and took him out.

Ravage felt much better here in a team where he wasn’t totally outclassed power-wise. Star-Lord’s ability to pull him out of trouble with his SA combined very well.

___________________________________________________________

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: 110 feels good to me. He can function as either a once-per-round sniper from slightly behind the front lines, or as an ambusher who can get a good swipe in. Neither of these encourage you to take a ton of turns with him.

GENERAL THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT: Ravage seemed to play best when he was put in teams where he wasn’t overshadowed by stronger combat characters. That does make me slightly worry about his position within the Decepticon army as a whole, but hopefully Soundwave’s pseudo-bonding and OM management skills will help him out there. He only needs to get a few solid points in to earn his points back anyways. Other than that, he’s fun! He has 2 ways to attack which gives him some flexibility, and even outside of his native army he did well as a solid ground trooper.

A bit overdue, but here you go!

Thanks Nobody!

I pulled this art from the All Hail Megatron comic, I'll add it to the linked post as well.

Nice find!

@Ronin , @Soundwarp SG-1 just wanted to see where we are at here on testing. Ronin I know you signed up before the site went down, then couldn't test without the site being up since you test online. Soundwave, you mentioned you could maybe knock out a test for him this past weekend while the site was down. I feel like one more set of eyes on him will be enough to move him forward after my tests and Nobody's. He'll see more tests during Soundwave's public testing course anyway. So I was thinking which ever one of you can wrap this up soonest can do so, while the other one just shifts over to Soundwave and test him there when I post him up (hopefully tomorrow as the vote is ongoing now). Does that sound okay with you two?
