The Book of Toad
The Book of Toad C3G MARVEL WAVE 1 _________________________________________________________________RISE OF THE MUTANTS Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Clobberin Time set. Its model number and name are #037-039 / Toad. The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Clobberin Time set. Its model number and name are #113 / Mortimer Toynbee. Character Bio - Mortimer Toynbee, better known as Toad, was one of the original recruits for Magneto’s Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Generally little more than a lackey or a petty crook, he is largely unambitious, content to live, as he always has, on the outskirts of society. Constantly mocked since childhood for his grotesque appearance and long, prehensile tongue, Toad is able to leap high in the air and even spit acidic mucus at his enemies. However, even with all of these abilities, Toad is unskilled and largely unintelligent, and thus, is little more than a nuisance to the X-Men. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
NAME = TOAD
SECRET IDENTITY = MORTIMER TOYNBEE SPECIES = MUTANT UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = OUTCAST PERSONALITY = SUBSERVIENT SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 4 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 6 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 4 DEFENSE = 4 POINTS = 95 CAUSTIC PHLEGM SPECIAL ATTACK Range 2. Attack 2. When attacking with Caustic Phlegm Special Attack, each skull rolled counts as one additional hit. TONGUE LASH 12 After moving and before attacking, you may choose one non-adjacent small or medium figure within 3 clear sight spaces of Toad whose base is not higher or lower than 3 levels from Toad's base. Roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 12 or higher, place the chosen figure on any empty space adjacent to Toad. If the chosen figure is engaged when it is moved by Toad's Tongue Lash 12, it will take any leaving engagement attacks. STEALTH LEAP 12 Instead of his normal move, Toad may move up to 3 spaces with Stealth Leap. When moving with Stealth Leap, Toad has the Flying special power, but may not move up or down more than 12 levels in a single leap, and will not take any leaving engagement attacks when he starts to leap.

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
I don't think Toad needs to have 6 life.
I also don't see him with 4 attack. Maybe 3? |

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
Agreed, especially with Tongue Crush being able to negate all defense, this could end up destroying a healthy Hero in one attack, and that just isn't what I would want. Besides, it is kinda cool to see attacks of 3 be able to get some more damage done on Supers where normally it wouldn't.

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
Paired with Tongue Crush, I agree attack is too high. 3 seems perfect. However, shouldn't Tongue Crush be able to effect non-adjacent characters? Not a huge Range maybe 2 or 3 clear site spaces. Any thoughts?
Could we bump his defense to 5 and his life to 4? Like a Frog then, tough to injure because of flexible bones and joints, but not to kill if you can injure him.

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
I like his life at 4 and his defense at 4. Isn't he basically the weakest of the villains in the Brotherhood? In the cartoons he's the one who always gets caught.
Edit: And yes, attack 3. Thanks for updating this thread, Balantai. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
How about:
Mutant Unique Hero Minion Subservient Medium 4 Life: 4 Move: 6 Range: 1 Attack: 3 Defense: 5 Caustic Phlem Special Attack Range 2. Attack 2. When attacking with Caustic Phlem Special Attack, all skulls rolled count as one additional hit. Superior Reflexes If Toad is attacked by a normal attack and at least one skull is rolled, you may roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 17 or higher, Toad receives no damage from the attack and may immediately use his Stealth Leap Special Power. Stealth Leap Instead of a normal move, Toad may Leap Frog. Leap Frog has a move of 4. Etc. Points: |

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
I can see his defense being bumped up to 5 and think that can help represent his reflexes/agility. I liked Tongue Crush (rather than Superior Reflexes) pretty much and think that it was useful without being overly powerful especially when his attack was reduced to 3. I think I like Caustic Phelm having the lower range of 2 to help keep his cost down and be more thematic with him being able to spit a couple spaces.
I think he should be a decent handful from 2 spaces and closer, but otherwise vulnerable to range and should have to be used strategically with his Stealth Leap to get into position to take advantage of his in close fighting style and Caustic Phlem special attack. Stealth Leap can also get him out of trouble, so that can help show his superior reflexes.

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
As an idea perhaps that really cool custom of Mortal Kombat's Scorpion has a power we could borrow for Tongue Lash. I see his tongue kinda working like the infamous "Get Over Here" harpoon throw power.

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
It sounds pretty cool and instead of being a Throw, it would be more of a Pull.
Perhaps something along these lines? Tongue Lash 12 Special Attack Range 3 Attack 3 Choose a small or medium figure within 3 spaces of Toad, but not more than 3 levels higher or lower than Toad and roll the 20-sided die. On a roll of 12 or higher, you may place the targeted figure adjacent to Toad and he may immediately attack that figure. If the chosen figure was engaged before being Tongue Lashed, it will not take any leaving any engagement attacks.

Re: Toad C3G X-Men Master Set
Instead of making it a special attack that requires a d20 roll prior to attacking, why don't we make it a special power that happens before attacking?
Tongue Lash After moving and before attacking you may choose a small or medium figure within 3 spaces of Toad, and not more than 3 levels higher or lower than Toad and roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 12 or higher, place the targeted figure adjacent to Toad. If the chosen figure was engaged before being Tongue Lashed, it will not take any leaving any engagement attacks. |
