The Book of Spider-Bots
The Book of Spider-Bots C3G MARVEL WAVE 44 A VERY SPIDEY CHRISTMAS Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Deadpool set. Its model number and name are #099a or #99b / Spider-Bot. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - When Otto Octavius had his ultimate victory against Peter Parker, swapping minds with him and becoming Spider-Man himself, he needed to prove himself to be Peter's superior in every way. Not only did he upgrade his suit and technology, but he streamline the whole Spider-Man experience, creating hundreds of Spider-Bots which patrolled the city so he didn't have to. They would send alerts to Otto about crimes in progress, and were also utilized as spies, such as when they listened in to the Sinister Six plotting to kill Spider-Man, effectively taking away any advantage they thought they had. After Peter's return, even he made use of the Spider-Bots to a limited degree, seeing how useful they could be. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
NAME = SPIDER-BOTS
SECRET IDENTITY = N/A SPECIES = ANDROIDS UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE SQUAD (3) CLASS = SCOUTS PERSONALITY = SUBSERVIENT SIZE/HEIGHT = SMALL 1 LIFE = 1 MOVE = 6 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 0 DEFENSE = 4 POINTS = 30 SURVEILLANCE WEB Before rolling for initiative you may either: • add 2 to your initiative roll for each Spider-Bot you control within 5 clear sight spaces of an opponent’s figure; or • choose a figure within 5 clear sight spaces of a Spider-Bot. That figure's controller cannot add to their initiative roll this round. SPIDER-VERSE: DRONES Once per player turn, before taking a turn with another figure you control that has a Spider-Verse, Swing Line or Web Swing special power, you may move the Spider-Bots. RECONNAISSANCE MODE Spider-Bots may ignore their height when climbing, move through all figures and never take leaving engagement attacks. Spider-Bots cannot be targeted for attacks from non-adjacent figures and may not attack or make leaving engagement attacks. Last edited by Lord Pyre; November 19th, 2021 at 02:54 PM. |

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
My only issue right now is with the power names. I'm not a fan of Spider-Verse: ____ Spiders feels like a bit spidery overkill.
I'd consider something like SPIDER-VERSE: DRONES and STEALTH PASCIFIST or NON-COMBATANT Are we ok with them having their attack boosted by Spider-UK? |

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
Yeah, we can totally swap power names, doesn't bother me.
I don't think going from attack of 0 to an attack of 1 with UK's boost is exactly meaningful. Thematically they have been used for some combat stuff, just that's not they're main purpose. So I'm fine with it either way really. |

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
I'd be really tempted to do a web bit in the first power name - SURVEILLANCE WEB or whatever.

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
If there's any chance for wordplay in a design, we've failed as a project if we don't take it.

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
Are they supposed to be getting a move before their own turn? They are Spiderverse figures and it doesn't say 'other' or whatnot.
3 attacks of 0 would actually be pretty useful in the right build that wants to attack it's own stuff. Spider-Sense needs a skull rolled to trigger though, so thet have to be boosted before attacking your own Spiders to move them around.

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
Yeah gotta add the "other" there.
And definitely don't care about cheesy attacking things, didn't really consider the attack of 0 to be helpful. I'll probably add a line that they can't attack in the last power and just take care of it there. |

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
For power titles, I like:
SURVEILLANCE WEB SPIDER-VERSE: DRONES RECONNAISSANCE MODE C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Spider-Bots ~ Breathing
I also like these names and think adding a "these can't attack" to the last power would be useful. We don't want them getting off cheeky little attacks of 1-2 anyways and it'll keep their cost even further down.
