Its model number and name are #118-120 / Brainiac 13. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - The Coluan supervillain, Brainiac (Vril Dox) placed his once organic mind into a computerized system that has upgraded himself on several occasions taking the designations Brainiac 2 and Brainiac 2.5. Plotting to further upgrade its capacity, the cyborg utilized the systems of Lexcorp and skipped several steps in his evolution by downloading his future 64th century self into his current body and becoming Brainiac 13. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Brainiac 13 - Design Phase
NAME = BRAINIAC 13
SPECIES = ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE UNIQUENESS = EVENT HERO CLASS = CONQUEROR PERSONALITY = CALCULATING SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 6 LIFE = 13 MOVE = 6 RANGE = 4 ATTACK = 6 DEFENSE = 6 POINTS = 750 ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE 13 After revealing an Order Marker on this card, instead of taking a turn with Brainiac 13, you may choose any Android or Cyborg Hero figure in clear sight of Brainiac 13. If you control the chosen figure, you may take an immediate turn with it; otherwise, roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 13 or higher, take control of the chosen figure and that figure’s Army Card and remove any Order Markers on that Army Card. 12TH LEVEL INTELLECT After any attack dice, defense dice, or the 20-sided die is rolled for Brainiac 13 or any figure within clear sight of Brainiac 13, you may immediately remove an "X" Order Marker from this card and add or subtract a skull, shield, blank, or 1 from that roll. CONTINGENCY PROGRAM 13 If Brainiac 13 would receive enough wounds to be destroyed, before removing him from the battlefield, roll the 20-sided die. Before rolling, you may choose a Unique Android or Unique Cyborg you control and add 6 to the roll. If you roll 13 or higher, Brainiac 13 ignores any wounds he would have received, and if you chose an Android or Cyborg, destroy it, place Brainiac 13 on the space previously occupied by the chosen figure, and remove all Wound Markers from this card.

Re: The Book of Brainiac 13 - Design Phase
Ok, I really struggled with this character as I knew what he was does & how powerful he should be but the HS game didn't lend a lot without making him too niche. I knew I didn't want to increase the base stats much over Vril even though he is so much more. 13 life was almost a given, as was 12 Level Intellect. But all the powers I kept thinking of related to andriods & cyborgs which I felt was too niche.
Anyway I gave my thoughts to Bats & he & Scapey hammered the above out. Which is still niche but with reused powers that should make him quite playable as an Event Hero. So I am happy to see how he works out when he gets to testing. BTW there is a lot of text but I have tested it in a card as is & the size of the font will be the same size as Dr Doom (currently our smallest print). However the line spacing is fractionally shorter but would be very hard to tell the difference.

Wow, this guy is going to cost like 10,000 points
Not a Brainiac expert, so I trust the braintrust to have the theme right. Hand of fate is moving and the finger points to you ...Iron Maiden - The Wicker Man TUTORIAL FOR RE-BASING FIGURES 3hrs 43mins 32secs = 1242nd of 8808 overall - 1988 Honolulu Marathon |

Re: The Book of Brainiac 13 - Design Phase
I'd probably want to lower his defense a bit, considering all of the healing he's going to do.
Not sure why he qualifies for Artificial Intelligence instead of Coluan... any theme experts want to explain that one? Otherwise looks cool! JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Brainiac 13 - Design Phase
Yeah, when I sent this to A3n I was waffling a bit on whether to keep Cybernetic Repair X or scrap it to save room on the card and keep his power level from getting too crazy. Any thoughts on that front?
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Brainiac 13 - Design Phase
I don't think he needs both Consciousness Transmission and Cybernetic Repair. Since the first is more iconic, I'd drop the second.

I like having both. He might be a bit crazy but in a good way.

Re: The Book of Brainiac 13 - Design Phase
Heh, yeah, I'm kind of split between those two thoughts.

Re: The Book of Brainiac 13 - Design Phase
I remember a while back posting an Android design with Cyber repair, and it wasn't liked because that was supposed to be a Cyborg only power, so I scrapped it. Are we okay with changing that now?

I am fine removing it though, but it will make him more niche having to draft an army of Androids to Transfer Consciousness to to heal. I don't recall that myself so don't know how to comment.
