I need to redo the Editing stuff.

Very happy to get these guys back on track. They’re some of my favorite designs from the set. if you need my vote to go to editing.

@Scytale are we actually voting again here, or do you just need to run the checklist again?

I also love that there's another Unique 2-figure Squad.

I have to run the checklist again.

[Pumpkin_King]

Excellent. Either way we're moving ahead on these.

[Pumpkin_King]

Bumping this for when time is available.

DocBlizz has been doing some playtests on this version of the SGs. Based on his tests we might discuss making LW easier to use, or giving them a better opportunity to get into position before using it. Higher move/defense, making having LW trigger after moving, etc.

Are you suggesting making changes to Last Will? If so, then I think that we should discuss and implement any of those changes before Scytale runs the checklist again. Even a relatively simpler change like letting the Guides move before Last Will triggers changes the rules interactions, after all.

I have some thoughts on the other suggestions and this unit's place, but I'll save those for after Editing unless we're feeling the need to make any immediate changes. Suffice it to say that I think that the concerns raised so far can be addressed without a LW revamp.

[Pumpkin_King]

Not a total revamp, no, I think we can fix it with tweaks. But you're right, let's wait for editing and then see what kind of work we can do.

[NecroBlade]

I'm OK with the idea of them drawing fire and needing to survive in order to fling a Hero at you. But if they don't seem useful at all, there are plenty of ways we can tweak the range or timing to make sure they have some potential.

I did a test with the current version of the HSG - they stayed in the start zone until a mind-jacked Syvarris killed one, then I used the other to bring back Syv to kill Tetsuo. I wanted to test for the usability of LW, but I didn't really get to this match. Using LW felt really good and intuitive, however. My wife, who has played maybe three games total, easily understood it.
