Wording updates:

THE DAY THE LAW DIED!
All Judge and Mercenary figures you control have the class of Enforcer instead of what is listed on their cards.

THE LIVING LAW
After revealing an order marker on this card and before taking a turn with Chief Judge Cal, you must roll the 20-sided die. If you roll:
• 1-10, you must choose 2 Enforcers you control to move 4 spaces each if possible; and
• 11-20, you must choose 2 Enforcers you control and attack with each figure if possible; and
• an odd number, you must remove 1 wound marker from this card and you must choose a figure you control and move 1 unrevealed Order Marker from Cal's card to that figure's card; and
• an even number, you must choose a figure within 5 clear sight spaces of Cal to receive 1 wound and you must choose a figure you control and move 1 unrevealed Order Marker from that figure's card to Cal's card.

MOST TRUSTED OF ALL ADVISORS
At the start of the game, you may choose one Unique Insane Hero you control to be Judge Fish’s Companion. Once per player turn, when you roll the 20-sided die for a special power on Judge Fish's Companion's card, you may re-roll that die.

BYSTANDER
Judge Fish cannot attack or make leaving engagement attacks.

SEEK THE MOST WISE COUNCIL OF JUDGE FISH
The first time each player turn a special power moves an Order Marker from Judge Fish's Companion's card to Judge Fish's card, add 1 to Judge Fish's Companion's Move, Attack, and Defense until the end of this player turn.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
When Judge Fish is destroyed, you must remove all Order Markers from his Companion's card.

Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes): Chucky 0/4, Pinhead 2/6, Michael Myers 2/5, Leatherface 0/4, Jason 0/6, Freddy 0/6

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: For his points I felt Judge Cal was ok, he defintely has some potential with bonding.

GENERAL THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT: Having the ability to get 3 attacks was pretty big, but I learned quickly that you need to move out your other units before bonding. Having the risk to wound your own units can be rough, but used correctly he allowed some big attacks. Overall I enjoyed Judge Cal and Fish. They were more difficult to play then I originally thought. In the right hands they could make a pretty rought to beat team, especailly if your going up against Criminals

Most Trusted of All Advisors: Saved a lot of rolls, only used him with Judge Cal but he could pretty great for other Insane heros

Seek the Most Wise Council of Judge Fish: Didn't move many order markers to Fish unless I had to.

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: Have a 20 sider reroll makes Judge Fish a great support unit for Insane Heros. A must bring for Isane Heros with 20 sider abilities.

GENERAL THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT: At 25 points Judge Fish is a must have for Insane Heros with 20 sider abilities. His final abilities makes placing him a little difficult. I would defintily recommend Judge Fish.

Sorry it took me so long but tests are in. Left most of Judge Fish's form blank seeing as how he was in the same matches as Judge Cal and other then support didn't contribute much. Let me know if you have any questions.

Playtest results.

Anyone want to see more testing, or do we think things are good to go?

[tcglkn]

Looks solid to me.

[IAmBatman]

Pre-yea

[Tornado]

A 2000AD design I did not test.
Looks good.
Pretty solid losses but I cannot really see dropping points too much. I suspect there will be a learning curve with them. Trust your Judgement here Soundwarp.
Nice work. Glad to see 2000AD in the Fools release.

[Arch-vile]

Looks fine to me. pre-yea

[Soundwarp SG-1]

Ok, I'm going to propose going to final editing y/n?
@Tornado do you have pics of the fish earrings you bought for Fish?

[tcglkn]

Yea, I have the thing I bought if you want photos of that? It's basically the same thing but came by itself instead of in a pair.

[Tornado]

I think tickle will get a better pic. I have to locate those.

[Lord Pyre]

Yea

[Soundwarp SG-1]

Got some cards up for Cal, including an alternate educational one!

Still working on the mod guide before I call this though.
