Thrown weapon 4 to 5
Pistol 5 to 6
Rifle 6 to 7
Sniper rifle 8 to 10

Melee Attack 2, 3 for hero, more depending on weapon.
Range attack 1 to 3
thanks, highly appreciated, for everything, especially politeness ☺️☺️ i Will try and test them
My other suggestion is crib off historical human figures. The 10th and 4th base stats reveal what an average solider can do. Valiant defence bonus on the 4th reveals trading or command can boost defense by 1. The 10 show improvements due to weapons (bayonet vs regular rifle).

Romans and scared band are good bases too representing formation. I really like Marcus as a template for a hero again revealing how a leader can boost move and attack.

I would look at the ninja and samurai cards as elite humans. The monks from classic and the C3V forum are also good for templates.

Finally the classic and C3V cowboys are great templates. For example you could take shotgun Sullivan add a +2 attack for melee (chainsaw arm) +1 defense against undead (choose on) and you have ash from army of darkness.

Thanks, i will put those suggestions to use, i coudl say that i could use some of the robots as possible templates for robotis enemies.


btw the Einar revolvers you are referring to are the einar imperium units?

It was a bad joke. Guilty mcgreech has pistols that are range 7. I implied they are enhanced like dead eye fans rifle (he has a power called ullar enhanced rifle) rather than admit my oversight.

I don't know if it helps, but I have played some "story"-type games where I used HeroScape figures for actors. The one that stands out the most in my memory was a Hobbit campaign. For Bilbo I used Darrak, for Thorin I used Migol, then another 3 squads of Dwarves, Gandalf was Emiroons figure with Sonlens card, Krug and two Feral Trolls played the Trolls, Elves as Elves, Orcs as Orcs, Zelrigs figure with Mimrings card+5 Life as Smaug.

With the figures, you could do that with anything, really. Lets ignore for a moment that Heros of StarWars Scape exists and say you have a bunch of minis from Star Wars. Use the figures you want and let the Stormtroopers use the Roman Archers Card, the Rebel Troopers are the 4th Massachussetts, Obi Wan plays with Agent Carrs Card, R2-D2 gets Q-9s card, Darth Vader plays with Jotuns card, Luke is Syvarris, Han Solo is Guilty McCreech, Chewbacca is a Quasatch Hunter. And go for it!

One plus is that the cards are fairly priced and balanced (minimal difference with Hit Zones, maybe also size differences) and especially varied (what a generic card like you asked for wouldn't necessarily be).

It's like football with swords or LARPing without the geeky stuff. In other words, it's awesomely perfect!
