The Book of Sharon Carter

[Hahma]

I've got HH and squad tests done and will hopefully get army tests done this weekend. She certainly is more than 70 and will go into army testing at 90. Her ability to pretty much get the first shot/s in is nice and she can often do it from a favorable position of height, so double attacks of 4 is nice. Though if she doesn't have marker at the end of a round and the opponent wins initiative, she's attackable with range. Having leaving engagement is nice for her to get away and sometimes attack from a better position or even move near a teammate that can help her.

Might consider changing the power name from Field Agent to Agent's Stealth or something else. She feels pretty stealthy with that marker on.

We'll see how army tests go, it might be easier for oppnents to engage and attack her if other members of her army are eating up OM's to prevent her from taking a turn, though Fury will help with OM flex for her. So far she seems like a nice low cost addtion to the Agent faction.

[IAmBatman]

Cool. Sounds like she's coming together well!

PASS -. Nice to be able to maneuver SC into position with Field Agent to get double attack with height before opponent can attack/target her with ranged attack.

Heavy Hitter or Mid-Level Hero Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No? .Yes
- What should be the unit's point value? 80-90
- Give a brief overview. .Sharon Carter's ability to not be targeted until she reveals herself is pretty cool and is nasty in often giving her a first attack unless she doesn't have the marker on her card at the end of the round and the opponent wins initiative to be able to target her. Getting a first attack with a double attack is nice in this price range, especially if she can sneak her way to height before revealing herself.

Spoiler Alert!

TEST 1
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units:Sharon Carter vs. Code: Blue Officer (70)
Sharon Carter wins with 2 wounds on T6R1/ Field Agent helped SC get to height and attack first, then CBO got a 2 wound shot off against her before she finished him off.
TEST 2
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Code: Blue Officer (70)
Sharon Carter wins with 0 wounds on T1R2/ SC getting the first attack off with height due to FA really helped again. CBO only had one attack and missed with 1 skull. SC finished him off at the beginning of the next round. She rolled 3 skulls a couple times for her attacks and his 3 lives didn't help matters.
TEST 3
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Iron Man I (70)
Sharon Carter wins with 1 wound on T2R2/ . Not having a ranged attack didn't help Iron Man and knocking her down a level or two wasn't going to do him any good.
TEST 4
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Iron Man I (70)
Sharon Carter wins with 1 wound on T6R1/ Pretty much the same as previous test.
TEST 5
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Trapster (75)
Trapster wins with 2 wounds on T2R2/.. Trapster got height and some nice attack rolls.
TEST 6
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Trapster (75)
Sharon Carter wins with 3 wounds wins on T3R2/ Trapster got a lucky 3/1 attack vs. SC with height to get her up to 3 wounds before he fell.
TEST 7
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Speedy Mia (80)
Sharon Carter wins with 0 wounds on T6R1/ Double attack is great vs. Speedy and her nice range doesn't help her unless she can target the opponent.
TEST 8
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Speedy Mia (80)
Sharon Carter wins with 2 wounds at the end of Round 1/ Similar to last game but Speedy died at the end of R1 from Delicate Health.
TEST 9
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Speedy Roy (90)
Speedy wins with 1 wounds on T1R3/Speedy got height advantage and rolled nice attack and defense rolls.
TEST 10
Map: The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Speedy Roy (90)
Sharon Carter wins with 0 wounds on T1R3/ Kind of the opposite of the last game with SC rolling nice attack and defense rolls..

Squad Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No? .YES
- What should be the unit's point value? 80-90
- Give a brief overview. .Ninja rolled terrible attack dice with their only 3 attacks. 1, 1 and 0 skulls were all they rolled. SC killed one after removing her marker, two Ninja engaged and rolled 1 and 0 skulls. SC leaves engagement and climbs ladder and attack with height to kill 1 more Ninja and last Ninja rolls 1 skull to miss, but SC takes him out with her attack with height. Ninja are closer to 60-70 without use of bonding, so it's not like she creamed a legit 85 point unit for this test's sake.

Map: .The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. Hand Ninja x 1 (85)

Spoiler Alert!

Who won and how many wounds did they have? Sharon Carter with 0 wounds lives to win on T1R2.

Map: . The Broken Skyline
Units: Sharon Carter vs. SHIELD Agents x 1 (110)

Spoiler Alert!

Who won and how many wounds did they have? 3 of 3 Agents live to win on T1R2.

Army Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No?.YES
- What should be the unit's point value? .90-100
- Give a brief overview.. Sharon Carter was held back until near the end of the game as Hawkeye and Dum Dum needed to do their thing as long as possible and Hawkeye in particular because he had a special attack to bypass Archangel's defensive power as well as the MBA's. When SC did get into the action she did well and had problems at the end vs. Boomerang with height. Fury rolled totally pitiful defense to get himself killed pretty easily, but at least he was able to order his forces around for the whole game until it was just him and Sharon Carter left. Had he rolled at least normally, his team could have won perhaps.

Army Test

What should be the unit's point value? .70-80
Give a brief overview. .Sharon didn't fare so well in this one as she was engaged before she could get the first attacks in and then her only 2 attacks with height weren't great. Commander Rogers had to take things into his own hands against the foes with good defenses and lives. My first time playing with Diamondback but sadly she didn't get to do anything because better options were available at the time and she didn't live long enough to do her thing.

Map: .The Broken Skyline
Units: .Sharon Carter (90) Commander Rogers (250) Diamondback (160) and Batroc The Leaper (130) for 630 points Vs. Kingpin (220) Sandman (220) and Scorpion (200) for 630 points.

[Hahma]

Have army test 1 done and will do army test 2 in the morning and type them both up afterward. So far 90 seems good for her.

[tcglkn]

Cool. More cheaper Agents is good for me. After seeing the Avengers, I want to design Maria Hill. She does look good at 90 points.

[IAmBatman]

90-100ish, yeah.

After seeing Maria Hill in the Avengers, I want to know how I met your mother ...

But, yeah, after that movie, I really want to see us design our last few missing characters from that movie. Maria Hill. Phil Coulson. And don't look if you haven't seen it

Spoiler Alert!

Thanos!

[Hahma]

Yep, all good stuff there.

[tcglkn]

Phil Coulson would be cool too! I forgot we recently got (or are getting. I can't keep track of Clix anymore) a figure for him.

[Hahma]

Initial playtest is all wrapped up and I like her at 90 points.

I changed Field Agent to Agent's Stealth in the SP, so if anyone has something better let me know. The power felt more stealthy than just being a Field Agent.

[IAmBatman]

Have we used Covert Operations yet?

Pre-yea for playtesting at 90. That cost looks just right.

[Hahma]

I don't think we've used Covert Operations yet, but that would work too. She could also be used to go and grab a glyph on the sly if there are distractions elsewhere to keep her from being engaged.

I'm good with Covert Operations, or even Covert Operative.

The Index has no special power containing the word "Covert"
