The Book of Booster Gold

[Griffin]

Not significantly enough for me to feel like the character is being accurately represented.

Btw, if you really think range 5, attack 5 would make him only as powerful an attacker as Batman, here's the list of other C3G units with range 5, attack 5:

Doombot
Kang
Doctor Doom
Graviton
Doctor Fate

Here's the list of C3G units with Range 4+ (none actually at range 4), Attack 6:

Anti-Monitor

I'm sorry ... but I feel this guy belongs in the Doctor Doom, Graviton, and Doctor Fate class a heck of a lot more than the Anti-Monitor class. Battlesuit Lex Luthor is Range 5, Attack 4. Is he a weaker attacker than Batman?

Luthor's attack is definitely weaker than Batman. Obviously. But his strength is in his survivability and in how he handles Kryptonians. I don't think you are really thinking about what you are saying here.

[IAmBatman]

Lex Luthor in a battlesuit made from Kryptonian technology that has drawn comparisons to Iron Man doesn't hit as hard as a guy who did a couple of decades of martian arts training?

P.S. Way to ignore the rest of the list here. I don't think you're seeing the forest for the trees.

Doombot - 95 points and designed to prolong the life of Doctor Doom
Kang - Double Attack potential and great survivability
Doctor Doom - Steals powers....
Graviton - clearly relies on his ability to throw people
Doctor Fate - Great team player and great survivability

You Booster Suggestion - great survivability and manipulates one specific glyph

A3n's Booster - great survivability, manipulates one specific glyph, and has a great attack

I like A3n's better.

[IAmBatman]

Anyway, I've made my argument and stand by the thought that a ranged attack of 6 on this guy is beyond ridiculous (hits better than Martian Manhunter? Not seeing it). I'll step back and let the others weigh in, though, since I'm not seeing a an argument worth countering at this point.

And NOW you want to down play the power of Batman.... whatever. That guy nearly defeated Darkseid, a god.

I was working on it.

[IAmBatman]

We pretty much established Batman as the baseline for maximum human effectiveness. Note "human" - so without superpowers or enhancements. Anyway, I don't think we're even arguing the same thing right now - I'm arguing the theme of him having a ranged attack of 6 (which is absolutely whacko, IMO), and you're arguing his place in the game (as if a ranged attack of 5 would somehow make him not worth an Order Marker). But, suffice to say, I think you're looney, and I'm happy to let the others chime in at this point.

No, I am arguing that he wouldn't feel completely like Booster with an attack of 5.

Yes, others should chime in. And I guess the debate can end when you think you get the last comment. :attempt#2:

SKEETS' TEMPORAL MEMORY BANK
Start the game with 1 Temporal Displacement glyph on this card. After your opponent reveals an Order Marker you may either place 1 Temporal Displacement glyph from this card on any empty space on the battlefield or remove 1 Temporal Displacement glyph from the battlefield and place it on this card.

We probably want to be consistent with our use of 1 or one.

[A3n]

The attack 6 was sort of a compromise. I totally believe his adjacent hit should be 6/7 but he should have also double attack of 4/5 with a range of 5. I compromised by dropping the thought of a SA for just 2 powers & incorporating into the base stats.

Before anybody asks about the defense, I was iffy there also having a defensive power & high defense which is why I dropped his life to keep it high. That & his defensive power comes at a cost which I think works best when using it for other figures than himself.

Cheers

Honestly not knowing the character well, I will defer to A3n's expertise.
