Either way one of these numbers needs to change

If you roll 12-17, choose 1 previously destroyed Science Police
If you roll 17-19, choose 2 previously destroyed Science Police

There is an overlap in the d20 tier.

12-16

[tcglkn]

I thought a 17 gave you 3 figures back.

Maybe Call for Reinforcements? After all, the power itself is pretty similar to the C3G Glyph of Reinforcements.

I think it is a must for these guys to have extreme prejudice work against non-humans only.

No that's not even right, I thought that at first, but it's "supers" they don't like. Whether they be human or otherwise. My best thought in that direction was "Unique Hero or Event Hero".

[IAmBatman]

Well by "supers" do you mean they actually have powers? Because with our use of Mutate, Metahuman, and Mutant, going "non-human" should cover that ...

[Griffin]

Exactly. Humans are not supers, but they can be super heroes. A3n, are you saying that they hate all super heroes, or just people with super powers?

from what I recall of these guys they hated anybody trying to do what they believe is their duly appointed job.

Having said that I think we can make it just people with powers so I am happy with non-human.

Last power should have "20 or higher"

EXTREME PREJUDICE
After attacking with a Science Police, if possible you may attack the same figure with up to 2 other Science Police that were not moved this turn.


As worded, this could be a near never ending chain of attacks. I move 3 out of 12 police. I then attack Beyonder with 1 that moved. I then immediately attack Beyonder with 2 police that didn't move, and that "first" attack of 2 is also going to trigger another 2 attacks, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, etc.


What do you think about a simple power that is just very straight forward (something I like to do for common squads)?
EXTREME PREJUDICE
When Science Police attack an opponent's figure that is not a Human, roll 2 additional attack dice.

[Griffin]

I hate to do this, because I know at this point I am just telling you that I don't care for the entire writeup, but I have to be honest here.

CALL FOR SUPPORT
After revealing an Order Marker on this card, you may roll the 20-sided die.
• If you roll 12-17, choose 1 previously destroyed Science Police.
• If you roll 17-19, choose 2 previously destroyed Science Police.
• If you roll 20, choose 4 previously destroyed Science Police.
One at a time, place each chosen Science Police on an empty space within 2 spaces of any other Science Police you control on the battlefield.

1. We already have a glyph that does this sort of thing.
2. These guys are going to regenerate WAY too quickly and consistently
3. when put into a power like this, this makes the design feel like zombies to me.
4. we already have a "backup" power for them on Gordon.

I think this power should be scrapped altogether and traded for something more science like.
