I dig it. The one change I'd look to make is switching her class from Sidekick to Student - I'm workshopping some Avengers Academy designs right now and hoping to build some synergy for them around the Student class. Anya popped up in the book a time or two even before she became a full-time student, as I recall, so she'd be a really good fit.

Whatever works. I just really enjoy the DC Sidekicks, and try to use that class wherever it fits to boost that synergy, but I haven’t read anything with her in a long time, so whatever is thematic

Hadn't seen that write-up before...super cool. As far as boosting that synergy...I think the Titans handled that pretty well and there are a ton of those still planned. I think Student may be a great fit here as she seems to be in that power range that Ronin is hoping all the Students fit in.

Blowing some dust off this and rolling it out as a public workshop, since @ALEXAN2507 was taking an interest in Spider-Verse stuff.

Some cool stuff in here! We really need a Mary Jane one day, and I've always thought a Marvel Team-up Spidey would be cool too.

[ALEXAN2507]

Neat

Yeah, that Team-Up Spidey is a write-up I've been meaning to revisit - I'd really like to nail that take on the character if possible.

[ALEXAN2507]

NAME = SPIDER-MAN
SECRET IDENTITY = SPIDER-UK

SPECIES = MUTATE
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = LEADER
PERSONALITY = VALIANT

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 5

MOVE = 6
RANGE = 4
ATTACK = 4
DEFENSE = 5

POINTS = ???

WEB WARRIORS
After revealing an OM on this card, instead of moving Spider-UK, you may choose 3 figures you control with the Swing Line special power or Web Swing special power. The chosen figures may immediately move with that special power.

DIMENSIONAL TELEPORTATION
Once per round, you may choose either Spider-UK or a friendly figure within 3 spaces of Spider-UK and place that figure on this card. At the end of each round, you may place one figure on this card on the battlefield.

WEB SWING 2
Instead of his normal move, Spider-UK may use his Web Swing. Web Swing has a move of 2. When counting spaces for Spider-UK's Web Swing movement, ignore elevations. Spider-UK may swing over water without stopping, swing over figures without becoming engaged, and swing over obstacles such as ruins. Spider-UK may not Web Swing more than 40 levels up or down in a single Web Swing. If Spider-UK is engaged when he starts to Web Swing, he will not take any leaving engagement attacks. After using Web Swing 2, you may use it two additional times.

SUPER STRENGTH

I don't love top-down Professor X style leadership for the Web Warriors - maybe something more Cosmic Boy style, at most. Johnny was suggesting something like this earlier in the thread:

Another thought I had was tying it to OMs - either move a figure for each unrevealed OM on this card, or move a number of figures equal to the number on the OM revealed, or maybe just move every Spider-Person with an unrevealed OM on its card.

I was also thinking about having Pavitr bring in the teleportation stuff, since he's the techie who mostly deals with the watches.

Also also, Spider-UK does not have a spider-sense!

Also also also, naming convention is Spider-UK (Billy Braddock).

I thought Spider-UK HAS it, he's just not as innate in using it- hence why I upped the roll

[Ronin]

I think he was explicitly stated to not have it at one point, but I'd have to look for the reference. I think it's a pretty easy cut on a four-power card, though, and they don't all need to have it. (Mayday already doesn't have it, for instance)
