JOVIAN BEATDOWN
Figures without the Super Strength special power roll 1 fewer defense die against Charlie-27’s normal attack. If Charlie-27 rolls at least 3 skulls with his normal attack, Charlie-27 may attack that same figure again with his normal attack and may continue attacking with his normal attack until Charlie-27 rolls fewer than 3 skulls or has attacked 4 times.

BFG SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 4. Attack 6.
Choose a figure to attack. Any figures adjacent to the chosen figure are also affected by this special attack. Charlie-27 only needs a clear sight shot at the chosen figure. Roll attack dice once for all affected figures. Each figure rolls defense dice separately. Charlie-27 can be affected by this special attack and can only use this special attack once per round.

TOUGH
When rolling defense dice against a normal attack, Charlie-27 always adds one automatic shield to whatever is rolled.

SUPER STRENGTH

Last two sentences can be combined.

Oh sorry, I already combined the two I was referencing, but that also works.

Pretty clean. Fists of Fury at 6 attack dice and with a subtraction to defense is pretty solid and he's got more staying power than Black Canary to pay it off.

Got him at 270 points on the calculator.

Thanks for running the calculator!

[Arch-vile]

I think he’ll end up more in the 300s personally - Fists of Fury gets much better as the attack stat increases. Give this guy Cap or Star-Lord and he’ll be rolling 3 skulls pretty regularly. And he’s got a lot of staying power with 6 life and Tough.

Plenty of dials to tweak though if he’s coming in too strong. Lowering his attack or the max number of attacks are simple if needed.

[FreshFoods]

Agreed that he’s looking pretty pricy. Being a Soldier gives him a fairly easy +2 attack with Rock and Cap. Easy enough to tune some numbers though.

[Tornado]

Yeah, Soldiers get all sorts of attack boosts.
Expect his points to rise.

[Ericth74]

Yeah, I'm seeing a drop in life from 5 to 6 and attack from 6 to 5. Ideally he's around 250ish
