Re: Lazy Orang's Classic Customs
Very nice card - although I hafta zoom in quite a bit just to read the tiny text.
Just out of curiosity, are you planning on uploading any Customs that aren't part of Dr. Goomonkey's customs contests? ~TAF TAF was the Storyteller... in THE ENEMY'S LAST RETREAT |

Re: Lazy Orang's Classic Customs
Yes, but the only ones that are presently completed are:
a) part of large and presently incomplete planned waves/sets, or b) Superscape customs and a bad fit for this thread. It will probably be mainly contest customs for a while, though I may come up with an occasional standalone, but a large wave is in progress. Glad you like Dreg! |

Re: Lazy Orang's Classic Customs - X-Series Cryo Centurion
A bit late for Autumn Equinox, but I suspect I'm the only one here who actually cares about that, so here we go! Here's the card from the last of Dr.Goomonkey's contests - the first squad I've posted on here. I'm actually pretty happy with these guys - they aren't competitive, but they feel like a good, fun, thematic squad, at least to me.

Re: Lazy Orang's Classic Customs - Dr. Gudruna Vogt
Eternity lies ahead of us, and behind. Have you drunk your fill?
-- Lady Deirdre Skye ,"Conversations With Planet" (Sorry, couldn't help myself - niche computer game reference. Haven't actually played it yet, but I've heard lots of good things about it from my brother, and it sounds fascinating.) Anyway, that out of nowhere quote actually serves a purpose - introducing my latest creation for this thread! As you may have noticed, the last of Dr.Goomonkey's custom contests just closed - while I didn't win, I was quite happy with my entry. The moment I saw that the figure was a brain on legs, I immediately knew I wanted to try to do something creative with it. I chose not to go the psychic control/warfare route, as that felt a tad obvious to me and, while this may have something to do with playing C3G as well as classic, I don't feel like the game's lacking in that department anyway. Taking inspiration from what my brother's said about some of the themes of Alpha Centauri (the game I took the earlier quote from), the First Ones of Babylon 5 and Doctor Manhattan, I decided to try creating someone who had used science to transcend her humanity - to unshackle her mind and see the universe in ways we couldn't even comprehend. Unlike most of the prior examples, however, in her case, she is lacking raw power, and, when transcending at the cost of her body, was left as only a walking brain for her physical form. The first power I worked out for her was I See It All - I wanted something to represent her consciousness being unbound, unconfined, her ability to see the universe for how it truly is and observe things others cannot. Since the intricacies sub-atomic particles and star stuff are probably of little significance in a bloody Heroscape confrontation, I decided to represent this idea by allowing her to view an opponent's Order Marker or any glyph on the battlefield, granting you valuable information. Instantaneous Calculation is intended to represent the unfettered intellect previously mentioned, while also depicting her sheer, unnatural intelligence, following the experiment which made her what she is. It is heavily based on 12th Level Intellect from C3G's Brainiac, and, in my experience, makes her a fun, useful and strategic support unit, and really sells her theme - she can make use of her transcendent nature to affect the battle in small but significant ways throughout the game, while not getting personally involved. Mental Shield is straight-up stolen from C3G, and just gives her immunity from Mind Control - such minor mental tricks are nothing to her now. Her range of three is meant to represent a certain degree of psychic power - in fact, I imagine that she communicates telepathically now, on account of her lack of vocal chords. The name Gudruna is a female German name I found meaning Divine Knowledge - it seemed fitting for the character. Vogt is a surname meaning... bailiff. Yeah, no deep meaning behind that one, she just needed a surname. Let me know what you think. Custom Pack Five: Transcendent Thought

Re: Lazy Orang's Classic Customs - Dr. Gudruna Vogt
I like using the entire brain for the green LoS. She probably won't move from the start zone since both powers don't require taking a turn with her. That almost sort of makes sense for a being that's above the physical, thematically.
BTW, I'm sure you've already noticed, but Mental Shield should be in all-caps on the Army Card. ~TAF TAF was the Storyteller... in THE ENEMY'S LAST RETREAT |

Quote:
Thank you, btw! Yeah, she'll probably never leave the start-zone unless she's all you have left - probably won't get an OM, save the X for I See It All - but she's a lot of fun and you have to think tactically about when to use Instantaneous Calculation. A couple of times in only one game I found myself wishing I hadn't used it early in the round. |

Re: Lazy Orang's Classic Customs - Dr. Gudruna Vogt
This got one of my three precious votes! I really like how you've carried the theme from the bio through to the powers, and I'm a sucker for OM-less abilities. 90 seems about right. Defense of 4 seems high for a naked tiny brain on chicken legs, but I guess she's using her amazing powers of calculation to dodge attacks. Reminds me of Amadeus Cho from the comics.
