I'm always in favor of more utility glyphs, so long as they don't undermine the current ones. Is the Drug 100% beneficial in the comics? Or does it have side effects that could be reflected as a power?

[MENTION=35907]Smithy Winfred[/MENTION] He required it to be able to fight, since he was in his 60's he had trouble fighting most villains. He also became addicted to it over time. I'll try and find a wiki summary if I can about him.

@SmithyWinfred Here is a lot of information on Thomas Wayne from Earth-2 http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Thomas_Wayne_(Earth_2)

Maybe he should have pretty basic stats until he uses the Miraclo drug. I also think he should get super strength when he uses it, as it appears to give him that power.

Hourman was just posted in the playtesting thread, so once he's been released we'll probably be better equipped to replicate the Miraclo drug for Thomas Wayne. Liberty Belle was posted with him though , so they might be codependent, or he could be dependent on her.

It seems like Miraclo is really addictive since two separate heroes became addicted to it, maybe that can be incorporated into the power, although I'm not sure how to do that.

[MENTION=45334]laughing matter[/MENTION], I hope to finish the playtest I'm working on today so I can get a look at Hourman to see how it was done.

What if I just took out the two additional attacks line, that way it gives the idea that not all of his batarangs are coated in anesthetics, and it's similar to the original batarangs, but not the exact same thing, only better.

EDIT: A specialty batarang, like the exploding, or remote control batarangs Bruce is more known for (which will no doubt be made at some point)

GLYPH OF UTILITY: ETOMIDATE BAT SHURIKEN
(Ranged Attacks, Order Marker Removal)

EQUIPMENT GLYPH
When this figure attacks with a normal attack, you may change the Range number on its Army Card to 5 and the Attack number on its Army Card to 2. If this figure is a Vigilante with the Vengeful personality, and it inflicted one or more wounds on a Unique Hero, you may remove one unrevealed Order Marker at random from the defending figure’s Army Card.

Same here, I freaked when I saw him posted, now I really need to finish Judge Mortis. Super cool design BTW I encourage anyone to sign up for him!

Here is some info about Batman (Thomas Wayne) Earth-2 version, for people who don't know much about him.

Miraclo-Enhanced Powers
Superhuman Strength
Superhuman Durability
Superhuman Stamina
Superhuman Agility
Night Vision
Aquatic Adaptation: The energy released gives the subject the ability to breath underwater.

Weaknesses
60 Minute Time Limit: After a 60 minute time period, the "AQP" burns itself out, and the waste toxins generated need to be eliminated in the bloodstream over about a 24 hour period.
Drug Addiction: Claims to be possibly physically addicted to Miraclo, but also requires it to keep fighting at his old age. (He is 65 years old by the way)

Maybe this:

Give him a +1 to attack and defense for one round, after which the glyph is destroyed. After the round, and before removing the glyph, roll a d20 if the figure is a Vengeful Vigilante, if you roll a X (I'm thinking 11-13) do not destroy the glyph (representing an extra supply of the drug)

On the anesthesia drug, maybe keep the one attack, and maybe steal from the apokaliptain weaponry, and have it "if you roll a skull on every die, remove all order markers from the defending figure's army card." I'd maybe up the attack to 3 in that case, to make it harder to hit, and more useful as a ranged attack.

[laughing matter]

Maybe give him sub par stats, but Miraclo gives him a +1 or 2 boost to his stats and super strength (physical dependence for fighting), but only have it last a round (1 hour limit), and require a d20 roll at the end of the round that if he rolls a certain amount, he receives a wound (addiction/ drug damage to his old body).

Your best bet is to wait until Hourman is released.

True, although he is in testing now...
