Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
I'd prefer the last option there of any. Are we overreacting based on a single show of dominance, though? Did you try this combo in your tests?

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
I did, but against a Mutant build. I'm picturing Iron Patriot and Red Skull against a squad-based army and easily getting four, five, six turns and over a dozen attacks of 4+ dice.
I feel it's a rare but excessive exploit. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
True, but there are other figures that can clean through weak squaddies with multiple activations, so it's not completely unprecedented. If it's regularly happening against mid-level heroes, I'm much more concerned than if they guys can just own Civilians and HYDRA Agents.

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
Personally, I'd prefer we close the loop, simply because there is the ability to get infinite turns - and that's something we should avoid. I'll leave it on the table for the moment; if we decide we're okay with that I'll just run another test or two personally to see if it feels balanced.

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
I agree with you. Any other card with Master Motivator increases the chances of it too. I think Chief's suggestion is the best.

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
I don't have a problem with the change. It wouldn't affect anything Red Skull could currently do anyway, though making changes to cards does kind of suck. While a string of attacks against squaddies isn't terrible, if they ring off like 6 kills in a row to take out all Thugs/Hydra (and their OMs) or whatever that offers bonding, that would really suck. It's one thing to get a string of attacks based on d20 rolls, but those rolls aren't easier to roll vs. a 1 defense unit than a 8 defense unit. Wounding a figure has too many variables that offer more swing that we may not like.
I would suggest that in the future, we'd be better off thinking extra hard about powers that give extra attacks or turns to other figures. It wasn't hard earlier on, but now with so many units and synergies, some powers should be chosen more cautiously.

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
Well this one is only a problem if we reuse it.

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
It's a good power and should be reused.

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
Mutant Mind Link is a good power, but I wouldn't want us to reuse it.
Anyway, I'm fine with it being reused here. What's the proposed tweak? I'd love to see it written up for scrutiny. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Iron Patriot (Design Phase)
This version is pretty much straight mechanical and wouldn't change Red Skull at all:
MASTER MOTIVATOR After taking a turn with Iron Patriot, if he inflicted one or more wounds with his normal attack this turn, you may take an immediate turn with any Unique Hero you control within clear sight of Iron Patriot without the Master Motivator special power. This version is more thematic but a bigger change and sort of funny: MASTER MOTIVATOR After taking a turn with Iron Patriot, if he inflicted one or more wounds with his normal attack this turn, you may take an immediate turn with any Unique Hero you control within clear sight of Iron Patriot that is not a Leader. I feel like we should probably go with the first one. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!
