Re: Karat's Public R&D Lab
I really suspect Self-Importance is probably a better fit here. Looks like he decided he knows a better way in the heat of the moment than plans from the beginning to “take a different path”.
Also not sure “battle hardened” is the best choice, seeing as he famously died in his first battle. I think I’d go with Self Importance 16 and something like: WARRIOR’S PRIDE If Thunderbird is within 5 clear sight spaces of his Prey, subtract 6 from his Self-Importance rolls. When Thunderbird takes a turn with Self-Importance, he adds 2 to his Attack number this turn. He’d still be obnoxious, but at least the power triggers more often when he’s near his Prey and gets a big attack that is doubled by BGH. |

Re: Karat's Public R&D Lab
The problem with Self-Interest here is that is boosts a movement power which he doesn’t have. We could take a page from some of the looser Superspeed stuff and say it boosts his BGH move for the rest of the round.

Re: Karat's Public R&D Lab
I forgot about the movement clause on Self Importance.

Re: Karat's Public R&D Lab
Thunderbird died in his second battle. He survived the initial excursion to save the others at Krakoa, the living island, but died fighting Count Nefaria and his Ani-men. And he didn't just die in the fight though, he jumped about a jet and died when it exploded.
On the design, the powers look good, but his stats should be higher. He is an Apache Superman, with superhuman senses, strength, speed, sturdiness, and stamina. I think it was an ironic, intentional twist that the most obviously powerful new X-Man died on his second mission. EDIT: wanted to check before I posted, but he was definitely a Soldier. Served in Vietnam, came home and felt he was wasting his life. Joined the X-Men to find a purpose again. He'll be an interesting one with Mutant and Soldier synergies. Just had a thought, what if his Defense went up and his Life went way down. Then he would have that feeling of being able to be one-shot, which feels right for his storyline, but still feels powerful. Maybe Life 4, Defense 6? or Even Life 3, Defense 7?

Re: Karat's Public R&D Lab
Thanks for the info Spidey! I knew he was a marine but almost felt like him being an Apache Warrior was a little more iconic but I'd be fine with Soldier.
As to the Stats, I could see going that route. Which Stats in particular were you thinking of? Attack? Clearly you were thinking defense. |

Re: Karat's Public R&D Lab
Having his health below normal human standards feels wrong to me.
Just an idea, but what about doing a sort of reverse Battle Hardened? Quote:

Re: Karat's Public R&D Lab
So is the point of Headstrong to make it so you never draft him? At least not with Professor X?
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Yea, I considered 5, but wasn't too sure which way to go. Thinking about it more, 5 might be better. |
