Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
NAME = RICK JONES
SPECIES = HUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = ADVENTURER PERSONALITY = LOYAL SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 3 MOVE = 5 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 3 DEFENSE = 3 POINTS = 80 HONORARY AVENGER Start the game with a white Avenger Marker. If another figure places an Avenger Marker on this card, you may place Rick's Avenger Marker on that figure's card. After rolling for initiative, if Rick Jones is within 4 clear sight spaces of an enemy figure, you may reveal an "X" Order Marker on the card of a friendly Hero that is a Gamma Mutate or has an Avenger Marker on its card. If you do, for the remainder of the round, enemy figures cannot target Rick for an attack or special power if they could target that friendly figure instead. DARING DISTRACTION If a friendly Unique Hero that is a Gamma Mutate or has an Avenger Marker on its card attacks a figure within 4 clear sight spaces of Rick Jones, subtract 2 from the defending figure’s Defense number. SNEAK AND SURVIVE When Rick Jones is adjacent to any terrain, obstacle, or destructible object with a height higher than his base, Rick cannot be targeted for an attack by a non-adjacent figure. At the end of the round, you may move Rick, during which he does not take any leaving engagement attacks. He cannot end this move engaged.

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
OK, haven't quite hit the balance between the different effects on the card I wanted, so I'm thinking about changing to this, based on feedback:

Passive Rick who sits in the start zone and stays out of trouble and gets ignored by enemies seems wrong. I think these changes could hopefully balance things out. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
I'm circumventing the Rules Team on this one, as I think it's pretty straightforward and a clear need of correction.

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
Sneak and Survive is quite cool. Little throwback to Bob there.
I do wonder how much use the second power will get. If someone gets to him to engage, Rick may not last long enough to be a distraction to anyone worth of needing a Defense drop. |

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
Well presumably he'll be backed by Cap a lot and won't often be a priority target. Also if you send him up on Ms. Marvel's turn, she can attack afterwards with the bonus. Or if you move Rick up and then use Hawkeye (Avengers) instead of his attack, you can get a nice attack in right away. There's also always the option of pairing him with defensive figures. For instance, he's an Adventurer, so he gets the full +4 defense from Invisible Woman.

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
Should be "an" X OM vs "the".
Honorary Avenger feels a little tactical to me in a way that doesn't necessarily scan as a Rick thing? Like it puts me in mind of Cyclops (II). Mechanics are obviously neat. Dig the other powers. |

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
I'm open to suggestions if folks really aren't digging the Honorary Avenger as is. The two main things I'd like to keep for that are:
1. He gets an Avenger marker 2. The soft synergy of revealing an OM on another Avenger at the start of the round If y'all have any thoughts on how to sell that package with a theme better, I'm open to ideas. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
What if it were like a souped-up version of that Trickster "look over there" type power combined with a little bit of that Baby Groot sort of "beneath notice" thing?

Re: The Book of Rick Jones - Breathing
Yeah, I dig that. I think that sells the theme I articulated in LCW better than an initiative boost. He's an Avenger, but not really, so they feel the need to protect him a bit better.
