Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
I like those suggestions.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
Sorry for the delay in responding here
@MrNobody
, I wanted to go into it in depth but have been too busy to do so until now. I've already run one test (others will be tonight), and my first tweak was to simplify the triggers, so the powers activate at the same time. I changed the autowound power to occur right after the figure movement, that way Batman's abilities activate all in one swoop. This also simplifies Bat-Cave training a bit by no longer requiring a second figure nearby.

Looks reasonable.

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
My thinking was that it was something that could be built upon with future Bat-Family designs, but it's probably not worth adding yet another design restriction/demand on the Sidekick class, yeah.

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
Oh, and one more thought - which Vigilantes/Sidekicks have reactive dodge-y type powers? I think Robin (Dick Grayson) and the like will be really natural pairings here, since they let you use Bat-Cave Training on the other player's turns.

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
Good catch, I should change that to only work on your player turn. Wasn’t meant to be a reactive thing.

C3G STANDARD PLAYTEST FEEDBACK FORM
NAME OF THE PLAYTEST UNIT: Batman (Bat-Family) Design tested:
Spoiler Alert!
Army Test Map: Custom Units: Batman (Bat-Family) (230), Robin Dick, Robin Jason, Bat-Hound, Lucius Fox, Huntress, Batgirl Babs, Black Bat (1000) VS Fan4 (1000)
Spoiler Alert!
___________________________________________________________ I went ahead and made that change, so the d20 autowound occurs after moving. That keeps everything happening at the same time. Design tested:
Spoiler Alert!
Army Test Map: Custom Units: Batman (Bat-Family) (230), Robin Tim, Robin Damian, Ragman, Catwoman, Alfred (800) VS Luke Cage, Moon Knight, Punisher, Firestar, White Tiger (800)
Spoiler Alert!
___________________________________________________________ Army Test Map: Custom Units: Batman (Bat-Family) (230), Robin Dick, Azrael, Batgirl Cassandra, Batgirl Steph, Oracle, Nite Owl (1000) VS OG X-Men (1000)
Spoiler Alert!
THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: Batman makes the Vigilantes work quite well as a faction while retaining their factional identity. I had a lot of fun with him, though the faction does have a lot of moving parts so there’s a decent amount of head space required. I don’t really think the d20 subtraction is necessary for this design (it’s one more thing to remember), so I’m going to cut that. I’m also moving I Am The Night to the bottom so it’s more clear that the movement from Bat-Family Movement can activate Bat-Cave Training’s autowounds. Balance-wise, Batman is coming in a bit hot. I’m also not sure the autowound power is necessarily needed. Batman provides a nice boost to his team with his other two powers. It probably would be cleaner to just let Bruce himself have an autowound power like Moon Knight’s. We could change that and bump his points a tad, and I think that’d be a solid tweak to him. |

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
So what’s the version you want to move forward with?

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
So here's where I ended up. I think I'd like to ditch Bat-Cave Training and add an autowound power for Batman only. In addition to Batman making the Family overpowered, it's still a lot of powers to juggle when they activate every turn.
Quote:
BATARANG FLURRY 15 After moving and instead of attacking with Batman, you may choose a figure within 5 clear sight spaces of Batman and roll the 20-sided die. On a roll of 15 or higher, the chosen figure receives 1 wound. After using Batarang Flurry, you may use it two additional times. Then I'd increase his points to like 250 and go from there. |

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
Is just the little bit of movement and -1 defense aura enough to drive those points?

Re: The Book of Batman (Bat-Family) - waiting for initial
Yeah I think so. The movement means your bonding is consistent and you can utilize your non-attacking figures for blocking. It lets Batman move up for free which means your opponent is often fighting at -1 defense. And it has use in letting anyone reposition if the need arises. I did not expect it to be so useful but the Vigilantes really capitalize on it.
The free autowounds were handy but very unreliable, but it felt like too much when it was all part of the same package, and I preferred the -1 defense and movement synergies. |
