I am waiting on a stamped card before I add them now, sorry it hasn't been added, either PM an updated card or Post it here.
Thanks for your patience.

Or just spend some time checking out Battleplan.

Ok, I've worked on the card and fixed the stuff you guys pointed out.

And I really wound't like to remove the fusion because that is why I made the card in the first place.
And about the fusion with all Ninja being in their respective spaces (water, grass,etc) I don't think it would ever work because not every stage has every tile.
On the other hand, I would/could remake the Ninja Lord, and maybe re-word the Ninja Fusion Power.
I was thinking that maybe you don't need all the ninjas to fuse, but depending on how many you use, the Ninja Lord becomes more and more expensive and if you don't use the earth ninja, for example, you don't get his powers.

I think the Ninja Lord is just too complex, try to get him down to 4 powers at most.

I like the idea about not gaining the powers from the specific ninja if it wasn't used in the fusion. I think the power saying something about notbeing able to have the ninjas strt adjacent needs to be put in there also, but I'd like to see a rough draft of what you are thinking for the revision first.

[Roderick2012]

This is what I was thinking about:

[NecroBlade]

My problem Fusion is...why not just do it right away? What's the point of even having to draft all these ninjas if you can just start them adjacent to each other and Fuse right away?

And I don't think it's a good idea to just do one of these at a time. Either do them all at once, or not at all.

[Takanuva]

Maybe change it so that he can only be drafted if all ninja's are also in your army, and whenever a ninja dies he takes a wound and loses a power of the ninja that died(Ie: loses lightning special and takes a wound when lightning ninja dies)

[Soundwarp SG-1]

I really think all of the ninjas should be reviewed at once, I don’t think you can ignore the fusion thing when judging the point cost of the figure. Plus, it seems kind of pointless to have a group of 6 cards with only one of them approved.


I think the ninja lord concept needs major revisions.

First I’d really like to understand the reasoning behind the fusion thing. Right now the ninja lord is just some random anime guy made out of other random anime guys. Is he supposed to be more like a spirit or something? Or an amalgam of all the ninja’s minds? Either way it seems weird that he has a proper name.

So some idea’s for the ninja lord.

1. No matter what else changes, he really shouldn’t have deadly strike and 5 attack, that’s way overkill. Personally, I would change the fire ninja’s power from deadly strike to 1 auto skull.

2. What about, removing the fusion thing and making him an independent hero? He could be around a hundred points with lower stats, have phantom walk, and a mind link style power for the other ninjas. Then, in place of the fusion powers on the other ninjas’ cards, they could have the power to remove themselves from the game to place a special treasure glyph on the Ninja Lord’s card.

So for example: the Lightning Ninja could give him something like ‘The bobby pin of lightning’ that gives the Lord the Lightning Reflexes power.

3. Or same as the above, but one of the ninja’s must be removed to summon the lord first.

4. Either way, the Ninja Lord really shouldn’t be 100 points more then all the other ninjas combined, and the all or nothing approach needs to go. Right now, the fusion thing is basically meaningless, either you draft him and you fuse, or you don’t draft him and you can’t fuse. This is why I like the idea of a mind link style power; it gives you some benefit for not immediately fusing all the ninjas.


Edit: Bah, long post equals super Ninjaing

[Felindar]

Maybe, just remove all of the NL special abilities and when they Fuse he gets to use the ability off of the minor ninjas card. If they die before fusing he does not get that ability.

Soundwarp, I LOVE your ideas, specially idea number 2. I think Im gonna make a version of him like that.

Also to answer someone's Q. about what background history of the ninja's, well there is none. I made them originally thinking that I needed more good filler characters, like Isamu, so I only intended to do 1 or 2, I started with Michiko and since I didn't wanna give her a Vanish like ability I gave her the Lightning Reflexes so that she could attack and get the hell out. I later got the idea of making the elemental ninjas because of Michiko's Lightning reflexes and even later I got the idea of the fusion. And yes all the pictures are of random animes and stuff from Google.

So there is a new sub-forum entitled "Misc Customs Project Forum"? Do you think you guys want to move and join us Star Trek and Pokemon projects?

Advantages are the main forum becomes less cluttered, but disadvantage is you guys are seen as less important. You would be just as visable as you either would be on page 2 of teh main forum or page one of a subforum.
