Why are we calling out Uncommons? To my knowledge we have never done that nor do I believe was it ever done with official heroscape language as they're basically Uniques with the exception of being able to draft multiples.

Also, I'd go Lycanthrope instead of Werewolves

Actually, we have called out Uncommons ie Lt. Stone. And yes that was an oversight it should be Lycanthropes.

Looks good! Should Shield Throw Defense be restricted to non-adjacent attacks? Seems thematic for him to throw the shield to intercept a projectile, but to stop a fist?

[johnny139]

I dig him. My thoughts:

- Not sure how the healing bit works. Like, does he heal other werewolves?
- Is Wild the most appropriate personality? I'm not sure how "Captain America" he stays in werewolf form.
- I'm not sure if he's technically a lycanthrope... but I guess it depends on how we're defining lycanthropy. He was turned into a wolf-person by science, but I'm not sure if it's explicit whether they were making him a werewolf or just making him a wolf-man (the same way Spider-Man is part spider, Lizard is part lizard, so on). It's a weird corner case.

But yeah, like I said, basically on board. Thank god for weird miniatures.

[IAmBatman]

He doesn’t move, attack, or heal for them. He leads them in doing all three.

[johnny139]

Sure, but all Lycanthropes can move and attack, by the nature of the game. Healing isn't a fundamental power in that way. If, when we hit out 4000th design, we want another set of uncommon werewolves, and they DON'T heal, Capwolf is going to be healing them.

I get the shortcut. It's just a little funky.

[Lazy Orang]

What if, rather than moving and attacking, they take turns during which they either may not move or may not attack? Then they'll be healing whenever they get activated.

[L0B5T3R]

How’s this?

LEADER OF THE PACK
After revealing an Order Marker on this card you may use Leader of the Pack. After taking a turn with Capwolf if he moved but did not attack you may take a turn with up to 2 Uncommon Lycanthropes you control. During this turn they may not attack. After taking a turn with Capwolf if he attacked but did not move you may take a turn with up to 2 Uncommon Lycanthropes you control, during this turn they may not move.

Needs wording help but I think it’s what is being suggested.
