Re: Just_a_Bill’s Wording Suggestions Thread
Star-Lord, Lex Luthor, and LexCorp Security
Star-Lord (with discussion) Lex Luthor LexCorp Security Quote:
LUCKY DEFENSEA problem with Kryptonian Armor is its global template. It doesn't mention Lex Luthor at all, and since the subject is "you" (the player) then technically this works every time you roll defense dice against a normal attack (for any figure). Obviously that was not the intent, so it would be appropriate to reference Lex Luthor (or LexCorp Security) in the game text. I would recommend the following template for all of these figures: When ________ defends against [an | a normal] attack, you may count one blank rolled as an extra shield.Thus: LUCKY DEFENSE(The "member of" convention comes from The Einar Imperium, and is also used on Diablo's SLEEP POTION 14 and Hired Guns' DOUBLE ATTACK.) I searched the Index spreadsheet for other figures that reference "one blank" or "blanks," but these seem to be the only three units that grant a single auto-shield for rolling one or more blanks.

Mephisto
http://www.heroscapers.com/community...&postcount=382 I had the same concern Dok did about "pouncing" effects. It's good that you made his proposed change to "would be destroyed" ... Quote:
This seems more like what you want (note also the inclusion of the serial comma): DEAL WITH THE DEVILYou could even shorten it to "... leave that Hero on the battlefield, ..." which may also connote just a tad more strongly that you are canceling its destruction.

Re: Just_a_Bill’s Wording Suggestions Thread
Dagger, Nomad, and Ozymandias
http://www.heroscapers.com/community...ad.php?t=38754 I'm thinking it would be prudent for Light Daggers Special Attack to say "you may remove one unrevealed Order Marker at random from that Unique Hero's Army Card." It would suck to have to include the revealed markers in the random selection! I imagine that people would generally assume that's what it means, but it seems like the other OM-manipulating specials I've seen usually say either "revealed" or "unrevealed" explicitly. (Fun unit, BTW.) EDIT: More details. In classic, I found a total of three powers that use the word "random," and all three explicitly refer to unrevealed order markers (so apparently Hasbro thinks "morons" are people too):

Re: Just_a_Bill’s Wording Suggestions Thread
Rhino and Toxic Waste Barrel D.O.
The Book of Rhino The Book of Toxic Waste Barrel These two cards say to roll an unblockable attack die, then proceed to restate the obvious (if you roll a skull, the figure receives a wound). This jumped out at me as odd when I was reading the waste drum's CHEMICAL BURN power; I kind of shrugged it off, but then I saw that Ice Mountain, Mole Machine, and T-Sphere all roll unblockable attack dice without mentioning the resulting wounds. This forced me to go do the research, and I found another 42 C3G figures (not D.O.s) that contain the phrase "unblockable attack." The references occur on 38 unique special powers, and 37* of those 38 do not explain what it means to roll an unblockable attack die. The waste barrel and Rhino seem to be the two outliers, so I recommend the following revisions: RHINO CHARGEThis will also help with the fact that Toxic Waste Barrel is a tad bit wordy for a D.O. In fact, I would recommend tightening it up even further: CHEMICAL BURN* The 37 reference powers are Abe Sapien's and Aquaman (II)'s SUBMERGE 12/11, Abomination's and Super-Ape (Mikhlo)'s SUPER THROW 8/12, Angel (Liam)'s DARK AVENGER, Azrael's FLAMING BLADES, Balder's RAGNAROK, Billy Batson's SHAZAM!, Blade's DAY WALKER, Blood Demons's BLOOD CURSE, Dark Phoenix's PSIONIC WAVE, Deathlok's SEEKING MY HUMANITY, Dragon Man's FIRE BREATH SPECIAL ATTACK, Executioner's AXE SLASH TELEPORTATION, Firefly's RAINING FIRE, Flash (Wally)'s SPEED FORCE, General Zod's GENERAL OF NEW KRYPTON, Ghost's SABOTAGE, Hawkeye's TRICK ARROWS SPECIAL ATTACK, Judge Dredd's LAWGIVER INCENDIARY SPECIAL ATTACK, Livewire's SHOCK JOCK, Liz Sherman's FIRESTORM SPECIAL ATTACK, Malice's BUBBLE SUFFOCATION, Obsidian's ENVELOPED IN SHADOWS, Phantom Girl's PHASE DRAG, Phoenix's PSIONIC BLAST, Phoenix's and Dark Phoenix's PHOENIX FIRE, Radioactive Man's RADIATION BLAST SPECIAL ATTACK, Red Hulk's RELEASING THE HEAT, Red Lantern (Atrocitus)'s RAGE VOMIT, Sandman's SANDSTORM, Scourge of the Underworld's JUSTICE IS SERVED!, Stilt-Man's ...THE HARDER THEY FALL, Swordsman's MAKLUAN SWORD SPECIAL ATTACK, Tempest's MYSTICAL TEMPEST, Ursa's KRYPTONITE DAGGER SPECIAL ATTACK, Valkyrie's DEATHGLOW PERCEPTION, Venom's SLASHING TENDRILS, and Walker's and Zombie's WALKING DEAD.

Re: Just_a_Bill’s Wording Suggestions Thread
Regarding Odin: You're correct on 1 and 2. For 3, I believe it is mandatory, so that wording is correct. For 4, yes, he still rolls defense and his own abilities are active. He cannot reveal Order Markers on his card, so Asgardian All-Father is unusable, but Odin Force is still in play.

It's less a question of what we can live with and more a question of precedent:
