The Book of Power Skrull

[Karat]

Any objections to updating to this?

DUPLICITOUS SCHEMES
Before taking a turn with Power Skrull, if there is at least one Order Marker on this card, you may choose a Hero you control that is a Criminal or Skrull and either:
• move the chosen figure instead of moving Power Skrull; or
• attack with the chosen figure instead of attacking with Power Skrull.
If the chosen figure makes an attack but does not inflict a wound, roll an unblockable attack die against it.

Cool

That seems to clarify the choice yeah. I think you can change "makes an attack" to just "attacks" like so though.

I think it somewhat depends on intent. When exactly should the unblockable attack die be rolled? If it's with a figure that has multiple attacks, is it one after each failed attack? Or is it meant to be after attacking with that figure (i.e. all attacks) that if you didn't inflict a wound, you roll the unblockable once?

It's unclear in the current text.

[Dr. Jekyll]

Yeah, that's true. Maybe something more along these lines would work?

Yeah, that would clear it up if it's intended to cover any and all attacks having to fail in order to generate one unblockable (which is the least punishing, which seems preferable). I don't know how it was tested, though.

[Ronin]

Don't think I ever used the attack swap option at all, so changes/clarification there wouldn't affect my games.

[tcglkn]

Does it let you make multiple attacks as worded?

[IAmBatman]

Good question. I lean towards yes, though would prefer clearer language.

[tcglkn]

Should probably be a take a turn where they can only attack power. The weird mid-turn interruption is weird.

[IAmBatman]

That type of thing works a lot better when a figure is giving it to themselves and it's clearly a single attack. It could be worded as "make an attack with" if we wanted it to be a single attack only. If we're porting in an entire attack phase (I know that's not a mechanical term, but I use it for clarity) then we probably want a turn, yeah.

[Karat]

Just catching up here, but reviewing the tests, it seems like exchanging his move and attack for turns is cleanest and most consistent (will take a deeper look later).

Also need 3 more votes to officially be in Final Editing here.
