Re: The Book of Electro - Design Phase

I'm OK with the "+ Special" being used as a modifier to the negative (but then I'm a math guy, who adds negatives all the time).

I know that I do not know.

Re: The Book of Electro - Design Phase

I think the "+" is appropriate. The plus doesn't really mean additional dice in this context, it's more like saying "the attack could be 5, or some other value". I don't think it matters whether that other value is less than or greater than 5.

It isn't a big issue for me, and I see you guy's logic behind adding a negative integer, but I think that it could be strongly argued that + = additional dice. Just saying.

I'm with this guy.

C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

I can see where you're coming from, but personally I just see the + as not "plus additional dice" but "plus a special circumstance". That circumstance could be anything.

This is my line of thought also.

Re: The Book of Electro - Design Phase

I see both sides here and am OK with whatever direction the group decides to take. If it comes to a vote, consider me abstaining.

Re: The Book of Electro - Design Phase

I personally see the + as "and". 5 and Special. 1 and Special.

Re: The Book of Electro - Design Phase

Like I said, I am good with the + special approach, as long as we are conscious of it, before I brought it up, I don't think we all were.

Well you're right about that. I had never thought of it being a +/- modifier. So now we are aware I guess that others might think of it as a +/- modifier, so if someone brings it up, we can be prepared.

Also, I updated the test sheet with more HH tests, and some Squad tests.



Quote:
Electrostatic Bolt Special Attack
Range 5 + Special. Att 5 + Special.
Choose a figure to attack. You may also choose any figures within 2 clear sight spaces of the chosen figure to also be affected by the attack. For each additional figure chosen, roll 1 fewer attack die. Roll attack dice once for all affected figures. Each figure rolls defense dice separately. Any affected figure that occupies a water or swamp water space rolls 1 fewer defense die. Figures with the Electrically Charged special power are not affected by Electrostatic Bolt Special Attack.
I'm wondering what people think of the line in red. As it is worded currently, Electro doesn't have to see the other "victims/targets" as long as they are within 2 css of the targeted one. The intention of the power for me was for him to choose if he wants to hit one opponent with all his power or spread it out to multiple targets but each target getting less power. But for him to do that intentionally, I think he'd have to see them, otherwise it would seem like an area of effect attack or accident that others that he didn't see got hit just because they were within 2 css of the targeted figure.

Would the wording in red below seem right?

Re: The Book of Electro - Design Phase

I like the first wording best. I like that the lightning can spread and even hit people he can't perfectly see - he is just forcing it in that "direction" in hopes to hit something.

Re: The Book of Electro - Design Phase

It does make him a little more dangerous that way.

Oh, by the way, did you see Taeblewalker's Blue Dragon idea in the C3V suggestion thread? He had a Lightning Breath Special Attack similar to Electro's. It's a little more simpler (not that ESB isn't easy) and in line with classic stuff though.
