The Book of Superboy (Kon-El)
The Book of Superboy (Kon-El) C3G DC WAVE 13 THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Legacy set. Its model number and name are #064-066 / Superboy. Its model number and name are #210 / Connor Kent. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - Shortly after Superman gave his life to defeat the infamous rampaging monster known as Doomsday, 4 impostors showed up in the city of Metropolis claiming to be Superman back from the dead. One of these 4 impostors was the Hero known today as Superboy, but at the time he resented the title and requested that people call him "the real Superman". Unlike Superman and Supergirl, Superboy was not born on the planet Krypton, he was genetically engineered after Superman's DNA and then cloned by Cadmus labs to create a new Superman after the Doomsday event. It is not common knowledge, in fact not even the real Superman is aware, but Superboy also regrettably shares DNA with Superman's most vile enemy: Lex Luthor. Superboy has the power of flight, super strength, invulnerability, and a weakness to Kryptonite just like all Kryptonians, but due to his DNA being altered, he does not have their other powers, but he does have the ability to dismantle inanimate objects with a thought and touch - a power that he calls Tactile Telekinesis. Armed with these super powers and an attitude, Superboy spends his time and efforts working with the Teen Titans as one of their charter members. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
NAME = SUPERBOY
SECRET IDENTITY = KON-EL SPECIES = METAHUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = TITAN PERSONALITY = BRASH SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 5 MOVE = 6 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 6 DEFENSE = 5 POINTS = 240 KRYPTONIAN DNA Superboy has the species of Kryptonian in addition to the species listed on this card. When Superboy rolls defense dice against a normal attack from a figure that is not a Kryptonian, if at least one shield is rolled, all blanks rolled count as extra shields. TITAN PROTECTOR If a Titan or Sidekick you control within 3 spaces of Superboy would receive one or more wounds from a normal attack, and Superboy is not engaged, you may instead place one Wound Marker on this card and you may place the defending figure adjacent to Superboy. Figures moved this way will not take any leaving engagement attacks. TACTILE TELEKINESIS SPECIAL ATTACK Range 1. Attack 3. Cyborgs, Androids, and destructible objects cannot roll any defense dice against this special attack. SUPER STRENGTH FLYING Last edited by tcglkn; July 21st, 2021 at 09:29 PM. |

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
This looks good .
He has to have a weakness to Kryptonite so his species as Kryptonian fits mechanically but it isn't accurate. I would think that thematically he should be a Clone or Hybrid. So this is a bit tricky.

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
He is just as much Kryptonian as he is Human, this is true, but in terms of what is interesting for the game, I would much rather see him bypass Kryptonian defenses, be affected by Kryptonite, and work well within future Kryptonian synergies - as opposed to allowing Alfred heal him.

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
One thing we could do, is something I was toying around with for Cyborg Superman, is replace Kryptonian Defense with KRYPTONIAN DNA - which is basically Kryptonian Defense with the add on that "his species is also considered to be Kryptonian in addition to the species on this card."

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
I would bump his defense to 6 and possibly his life too. Now that he can age he has matured a little and can even use Heat Vision, though I prefer TT be on the card over it.

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
I hear ya on the life and defense, but what is wrong with representing him at the time where his invulnerability was weaker than Superman and Kara (which it still is due to being half human)? Also, Over time, we will have several different Kryptonians to draft from, but I think it makes our game more interesting if we can make each one distinctly unique, and one way to do that is with the powers as seen here, but also with points. If I want a Kryptonian Power House, but I don't have the points to do so, it sure would be cool to be able to draft a weaker Kryptonian in Superboy.

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
Based on the fact the new set just released pics of a new Cyborg Supes and a Doomsday in containment suit, I am REALLY confident we will get a new Steel and an original costume Superboy in this set, Leather Jacket and all!

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
With Titan Protector is he pulling them in with Telekinesis? I'm not understanding the last part of the power:

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
The power is kinda like Heroic duty just more streamlined and hopefully more useful. He is flying over, defending for the attack, picking up the allie, and flying them away.

Re: The Book Of Superboy - DESIGNING
C3G INITIAL PLAYTEST FEEDBACK FORM
NAME OF THE TEST UNIT Superboy - THEME TEST/ Check to see if there are any powers or stats on the test unit card that does not accurately reflect the theme or likeness of what the character would and could do. Also consider destructible objects, and whether or not this characters powers should affect them. Pass - MIRROR TEST/ Check to see if the unit were played against itself, if there would be any loops that would upset the balance of the Game. Pass - BONDING TEST/ Compare the unit card with all possible currently existing Bonding abilities to make sure there are no continual Bonding possibilities that do not stop appropriately or do not stop at all. This is to prevent loops in Bonding. Pass - SYNERGIES TEST/ Compare the unit card with all possible currently existing synergies to make sure there are no factors that could break the game by making any unit too powerful or too weak. Pass - POWER CHECK/ Consider the test unit and all existing units and all glyphs to compare to and check for any powers that could be over amplified and break the game. Each power must define when it takes place, who or what it affects, and What are the stipulations on the power if there are any. Pass - FUN TEST/ Consider whether or not the design was fun to play. Pass - FUN COMPETITIVE TEST/ Consider whether or not the design was fun to play against. Pass - DRAFTING TEST/ Consider whether or not this design is worth drafting. Pass - USAGE TEST/ Consider whether or not all of the powers on this card were used or at least usable. Pass - STRATEGY TEST/ Consider whether or not the design offers any real strategy or interesting tactics to the overall game. Pass Heavy Hitter or Mid-Level Hero Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? Yes - What should be the unit's point value? 240 - Give a brief overview. He is very comparable to C3G Captain America. He hast similar stats and powers.
Spoiler Alert!
_____________________________________________________________ Squad Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? Yes - What should be the unit's point value? 240 - Give a brief overview. Too easy of a fight for SB as his K DNA really worked against the Hawkmen Map: Custom Units: SB vs Hawkmen x2 +1
Spoiler Alert!
_____________________________________________________________ Squad Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? . - What should be the unit's point value? 250 - Give a brief overview. SB engaged a lot at once with his speed, but one got away to take height, and that one really helped. Map: Custom Units: SB vs SHIELD Agents x2 +1
Spoiler Alert!
_____________________________________________________________ Army Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? Yes - What should be the unit's point value? 240 - Give a brief overview. He wasn't able to do much, but he did push Grundy over the edge and he did help Superman block off Doomsday on both sides of the bridge so that Grundy couldn't come back. Map: Custom Units: Superboy, Superman I, and Supergirl vs Doomsday, Darkseid, and Grundy
Spoiler Alert!
_____________________________________________________________ Army Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? Yes - What should be the unit's point value? 240 - Give a brief overview. He did well in saving one ally once and also putting the beat down on Gorilla Grodd. Map: Custom Units: Superboy, Robin, Speedy, and Alfred - VS - Gorilla Grodd, Docotor Light, Chronos, and Fire Ant x1
Spoiler Alert!
