The figure used for this unit is a Gashapon Full Color DBZ figure that is named Broly.

_________________________________________________________________

Character Bio - At birth, Broly's most curious feature was his inordinate power level of 10,000. This anomaly meant that Broly's power had already been close to that of Bardock and King Vegeta at the time of their deaths. King Vegeta feared the threat the boy posed to his empire, and so he gave the order for the infant's execution. Broly's father, Paragus, begged the king to spare the child's life, attesting that his son could be an extremely valuable asset to King Vegeta and his son. King Vegeta was quick to point out that while this is true, the same is true that Broly could use his ever-increasing strength to overthrow the Saiyan royal family. King Vegeta closes the argument by sentencing Paragus to death, shooting him with an energy wave. Broly is then stabbed in the chest and left to die with Paragus. But they didn't die...

SMASHER LARIAT
After moving, you may choose a figure Broly passed over with his Flying special power and place that figure on any space Broly passed over. After placing the chosen figure, roll 1 unblockable attack die against the chosen figure. Figures moved by Smasher Lariat will not take leaving engagement attacks.

ERASER CANNON SPECIAL ATTACK
Range Special. Attack 6.
Once per round, you may choose a space within 5 clear sight spaces of Broly. All figures on or within 2 spaces of the chosen space are affected by this attack. Roll attack dice once for all affected figures. Broly may not attack with this special attack unless there are 4 or more Wound Markers on this card.

LEGENDARY SUPER SAIYAN
Figures engaged with Broly subtract 1 from their Attack and Defense numbers. After Broly attacks with a normal attack, if there are 8 or more Wound Markers on this card, he may attack with his normal attack one additional time.

Man, two DBZ lots and yet another character I don't think I have a figure for. Ya'll are killing me. Design a Monster Carrot as restitution, please.

Design looks good! I like that he gets stronger and unlocks an SA when he takes wounds. I think that SA needs some wording help, but intent is easy enough.

I might suggest discarding the SS-clause in the Lariat, since that just makes him a tad swingier. Either just one unblockable against all figures, or 2 unblockables but maybe once per round or something. But that's my personal preference. No issues otherwise.

[FreshFoods]

Maybe the 2 unblockables on Lariat when he has a certain amount of wounds? Personal preference here too, and probably doesn't make him any less swingy, but it ties into the mechanics on the other two powers. Really like the design, feels appropriately Broly!

Powerhouse.
Does he grab people and then drop or smash them?

At this point, I think I'm the only one that got a Broly figure. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks! That may be worth looking into.

[Tornado]

Nice. Yeah that looks like SS is not going to help.

It’d be neat if the wound bits were a little more standardized. 2 and 5 feel like really random numbers, so it may take up a little more headspace than needed.

I kind of like him unlocking new abilities at different wound amounts, personally.

Does this read a little better for the SA?

Yeah I think that's better! I'm wondering if we should put the "once per round" clause along with the wound markers at the end. Not sure we've used that language like that in SAs before.
