How's that Wulf?

Definately closer. But a little wordy I think. On the right track though.

If that is the way we want to go, how about...

Any Undead figure that is adjacent to Simon will receive any leaving engagement attacks from Simon.

This streamlines it a bit but says exactly what you want the affect to be.

I would think of sensing the undead more as a pre-emptive ability though rather than an after the fact ability. Something that maybe affects his movement towards the Undead- kind of a "I know they are here somewhere, I can feel it."

SENSE UNDEAD (or I SEE UNDEAD PEOPLE )
Simon may add 3 to his Move number if he will end his turn adjacent to an Undead figure.

Not bad. I like that. Also Wulf how about giving him a power like the Greater Ice Elemental's Ice Spikes. That way when they move adjacentto him he ges a free swipe at them? That may be the way to go if it's left as a damage ability, but I really like the move boost.

I'd say combine them.
Sense Undead
Simon may add 3 to his Move number if he will end his turn adjacent to at least one Undead figure. At the end of his move, roll 1 attack die for each opposing Undead figure adjacent to Simon. Any skull rolled counts as one unblockable hit on that Undead figure.

Simon senses the Undead figure' kicks it up a notch, and gets in a gets in a quick strike before the Undead knows what hit him/her/it.

Nice! I like that.

It may need a better name than Sense Undead since he's also getting a shot at damaging them. Strike Undead?

The only thing I see is that it would give him two attacks if moved adjacentto any undead. I'm not sure that would be a good idea, even though one is a one die attack. I think this one would need to pass a majority from the people here.

That is a little strong, now that you mention it. Maybe he chooses one figure he's adjacent to for the unblockable attack. Or the whole thing could be a Special.

Well, since the Vampires were introduced in Wave 7 how about "The Seventh Sense"?

And, of course, we haven't even seen what jcmcminis has already come up with. It may be something that makes all our posts obsolete with its total awesomeness.

Well he will be swamped catching up to us when he gets back on I could strengthening the attack and makingit a SA. Give me a bit and I'll see what I come up with.

EDIT: I got a green light from all of the C3G Heros, so we can use their playtest sheet to test out our customs. Balantia I think you should put a link to it in the OP for anyone that is intrested in playtesting.

Ok will have my first draft up later today but wanted to comment on some suggestions of abilities already made.

Reach- had this on the card already, perfect way to represent his whip.

Detect Undead-I was thinking maybe a bonus to initiative if you opponent places an order marker on an undead army card. Sort of Simon knowing that the undead are going to be on the move? Of course I like the movement bonus ideas as well.

Also found another possibility for a mini for Simon. What do you guys think of this one.
