The Book of Slingshot
The Book of Slingshot C3G MARVEL PUBLIC EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION 28 NOT YOUR AVERAGE SUPERHERO Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Slingshot figure from the Captain America set. Its model number and name are #009 / Slingshot. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - Yo-Yo Rodriguez was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, the daughter of known super-criminal John Horton, better known as The Griffin. Before the Skrull's Secret Invasion started, Nick Fury tasked Daisy Johnson, also known as Quake, with recruiting select individuals that he had files on for what would become his secret strike force team. As a member of Nick Fury's black ops team called the "Secret Warriors" she was given the codename Slingshot. Later on, both of her arms are severed by The Gorgon and she is temporarily unable to remain active with the team. However, both arms are later replaced with prosthetics. With her new arms, she returns to active duty. Slingshot has the superhuman ability to run at speeds several times faster than a normal human being. After she uses her power, she automatically returns to where she started. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Slingshot - Breathing
NAME = SLINGSHOT
SECRET IDENTITY = YO-YO RODRIGUEZ SPECIES = INHUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = AGENT PERSONALITY = DEDICATED SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 5 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 4 DEFENSE = 4 POINTS = 135 SNAPBACK SUPERSPEED When moving Slingshot normally, she may add 5 to her Move number. If you do, or if she uses her Swift Bionic Punch special power, Slingshot may move through all figures, never takes leaving engagement attacks, and does not have to stop her movement when entering a water space. After her turn, if Slingshot used Snapback Superspeed, you must immediately place her on the space she occupied at the start of the turn, if possible. Otherwise, Slingshot receives one wound. SLINGSHOT EXTRACTION If Slingshot used Snapback Superspeed this turn, and ends her movement adjacent to a engaged small or medium figure you control, you may place that figure on an empty space adjacent to Slingshot when she is placed back on her original space. Figures moved this way will not take any leaving engagement attacks. SWIFT BIONIC PUNCH Instead of moving normally and attacking, choose an adjacent figure, then move Slingshot up to 6 spaces in a straight line from the chosen figure. Count the minimum number of spaces between Slingshot and the chosen figure, then place Slingshot back on her original space. Roll the 20-sided die, adding 1 to the roll for each space counted. If you roll 11-18, the chosen figure receives one wound. If you roll 19 or higher, the chosen figure receives two wounds. Last edited by tcglkn; January 18th, 2021 at 08:32 PM. |

Re: The Book of Slingshot - Breathing
One thing I could not settle on was her species.
I have seen her labeled as a Mutate and Inhuman. I figure a group decision would help determine where she would better fit in. |

Re: The Book of Slingshot - Breathing
My understanding is that she’s an Inhuman in modern stuff, Mutate in older stuff. I’d personally go Inhuman since that’s we we did with Quake (who had the same Inhuman retcon).
I really dig the design. I wish there was a clean way for her to play more nicely with Coulson, but as an Agent she’ll fit well enough in that synergy group anyway. |

Re: The Book of Slingshot - Breathing
Not super familiar with the character, but from everything I've seen Inhuman would be the way I'd go. Really good design, can't wait to try her!

Re: The Book of Slingshot - Breathing
Agreed, Inhuman works better for the faction synergy we have been laying out.

Re: The Book of Slingshot - Breathing
I mean she started out as a Mutate and Marvel changed her to Inhuman for the show and just made the comics match so I think Inhuman is correct here.
My one nitpick is that it’s weird to have a power with attack in the name that isn’t an attack. I like Bionic Strike or Bionic Punch as the name without attack at the end. |

Re: The Book of Slingshot - Breathing
It's cool overall and feels very evocative of the character. My one concern is that it seems like the first two powers are doing a lot of the same things and thus you've got a lot of mechanical baggage you're needing to repeat between them. It makes me wonder if there's a way to combine them or otherwise streamline things so there's not so much repetition between those powers?
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.
