Carr's value is tough to nail down, being a stealth dodger that needs to get into melee to use his big attacks. I knew Carr was at least 100 for his stats and melee powers, but Stealth Dodge and two attacks is pretty huge, probably being worth more than 35 points. I still need to play test him, but you are right methinks. 150 may be a better starting ground for Mr. Carr.

In other news, I updated the OP with a new card. The dinosaur faction will be completed soon! (Well, until I create more at least )

Hey, the Bacta Tank is very well done, you should put it up on HoSS! But I think you should get a different picture, that one is creepy. Where did you get it, anyway? Star Wars Jedi Knight?

Anyway, congratulations on becoming a Jedi Knight!

[Arch-vile]

Thanks Name, I reworked the Bacta Tank for HoSS and I like that much better. The picture was found by googling "Bacta Tank". I think Wookieepedia has a page full of images of a bacta tank. I didn't want Mark Hamill in whitie tighties on my card

Thanks!

No problem, I really like your cards, you're good at making them!

Thanks Name, I am glad you are a fan.

I have highlighted Valkrill's flag bearer, Exodus, in the OP. I haven't been able to find many other Valkrill flagbearer designs (everybody wants to make an Aquilla flagbearer ;D) so I am curious if anyone else had other thoughts to a Valkrill enhancer.

[Name653]

I dunno about that, but it's spelled 'Presence'.

I played a couple games yesterday, and thought I'd share one. I have been playing the "big 4" of my fellowship: Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, and Boromir. This game was those 4 vs Lugia (a 1000 point Event Hero).

Lugia has 8 die attacks except vs Aragorn. Because of this, all the heroes clustered around Aragorn, so Lugia tried to kill him first. Aragorn fell pretty quickly, but Lugia had 6 woulds already. Gimli and Boromir engaged Lugia, but Lugia flew away taking a disengagement attack to fell Legolas in 2 hits. Legolas pumped Lugia full of arrows for the trouble though, bringing him up to 9 wounds.

Gimli was the next to fall. Despite Tough, Lugia's 8 dice proved too much and Gimli fell. Boromir was ready though, and attacked with ferocity. At the start of the next round, an unwounded Boromir was fighting a 11 wound Lugia. Lugia brought Boromir up to 6 wounds while taking 2 in return. Boromir's Last Stand let him survive until the end of the round. Boromir attacked, hoping for a hit, but he whiffed. Lugia then flew away, taking a disengage wound to bring him up to 14. On Boromir's final turn, he jumped off the hill he was on and almost reached Lugia. He rolled for Fellowship, to Frenzy another turn, but he rolled too low. The round ended and Boromir fell.

I really like this 4-person core of the fellowship. I have not played the others, I still need to buy the minis for them. Gandalf I plan to change quite a bit.

Lugia is overpriced, I think. Comparing him to Anti-Moniter, AM has double the life and an extra, better power. Lugia is probably more close to 900, but I am willing to be a little off. I would like to try Lugia in a 3-way fight to see how allegiances shift with a big boy on the table. Before anything, I plan to run a pokemon vs Lugia battle, and a Star Wars vs Lugia battle. That will tell if Lugia is overpriced.

I've based most my LotR cards off of Sherman Davies and Super Bogue.

I have been updating my LotR customs lately. Eventually, I'll make cards for all of the Fellowship and expand to make the rest of Tolkien's creations. The major change is the way the Fellowship power works- it's full bonding now instead of a Frenzy mechanic.

Gandalf is tricky to design. The wording is a mess currently but I think he'll be fun. The "fearless aura" is going to be important for future anti-synergies.

I just bought 2 Hobbit boosters and pulled a Galadriel!

My Galadriel is very weak, but she wasn't shown to be fighting in the movies. Maybe seeing the Hobbit will change my perception of her. I made her a Wizard for classic synergies

If I am not mistaken there may only be two or three people that are more powerful than her..
