Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
NAME = STAR SAPPHIRE
SECRET IDENTITY = CAROL FERRIS SPECIES = HUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = LOVER PERSONALITY = PASSIONATE SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 6 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 1 DEFENSE = 7 POINTS = 340 POWER OF LOVE 5 Start the game with 5 violet Battery Markers on this card. Add 1 to this Star Sapphire’s Range and Attack numbers for each violet Battery Marker on this card. At the start of the game, you may choose one other Unique Hero to be this Star Sapphire’s Beloved. LOVE BONDS After revealing an Order Marker on this Star Sapphire’s Beloved's card, before taking a turn with her Beloved or using other special powers on any Army Card or Glyph, you may first remove a violet Battery Marker from this card to take a turn with this Star Sapphire. If this Star Sapphire takes a turn with this special power, you may not take any additional turns with other figures you control other than her Beloved. JEALOUS PASSION When this Star Sapphire attacks a figure adjacent to her Beloved, she may attack that figure one additional time.

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
Is "Power of Love" going to be the Star Sapphire standard, or is it just for Carol?
I think that a 7/7 is a bit crazy at 6 Range, though it'd mitigated by the lack of Move boost. Maybe drop her Attack by one. I dunno, guess that'd be up to testing. One thing I think could be interesting is making it so that ANY Unique Hero can be beloved, rather than just one you control. You'd need to put a qualifier into the second power (so it only triggers with your units), but it'd make for some cool setups for the second and help discourage podmaking. I doubt it'd be as good a choice as the bonding most of the time, but it'd be cool to make it an option at least. She's been at odds with Hal as often as they've been allies after all.

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
I'm OK with folks making it for the whole faction or for it just being for Carol. If folks want to go another direction with other Star Sapphires, they could do something like "Violet Power Battery" that doesn't have the same Beloved set up.
I'm really wanting this version of Carol to represent the modern age Star Sapphire who's primarily allies with Hal. I actually have a riff on this for the silver age Star Sapphire who was more enemies with Hal where the Beloved works differently. I think it would be mechanically cleaner to stick with the Beloved being a figure you control here. I think her stats (and number of markers) will be the big things to toggle for sure. We might go down to four markers and raise her defense by one as well. My big thing is do you think the extra activation will be tempting enough to burn a marker? I think once she has a couple wounds, it'll probably be worth while, especially if her Beloved is engaged and she can get in that double attack. What do you guys think, though?

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
I'm not too sure the burning a marker for the activation would be tempting enough. I suppose playtesting might bring it to light, but I hope that there aren't too many variables for playtesting to be helpful enough.
I feel like I want a definite answer to how the rest of the star sapphires are going to look before I feel completely comfortable here.

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
Well that's kind of up to whomever LDs the rest of the Star Sapphires, isn't it?

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
Should we start a faction thread to discuss what others want to see out of the entire faction here? I know what I want to see out of this Star Sapphire, but I don't have defined expectations for the entirety of the faction, so others will have to chime in with strong voices.

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
I like johnny's idea, but if you want to save it for a different, version, it's no big deal.
I like the design overall, though I agree that it might not be very compelling to burn a marker for the extra turn. With a power, like that, it's tough to theoryscape.

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
I think part of it depends on how aggressive you want to play. One tweak I can think of that might make burning markers more appealing is to remove the Defense boost from it and give her a higher base Defense. That way you'd be giving up a bit less to use the power.

Re: The Book of Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris) - Design
Sounds like a good post-breathing period adjustment for her, then. Are we good with 7 base defense since she doesn't have a defensive power? Or do we want it at 6? C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.
