Re: The Book of Stick (public testing)
Posting these up as I'm a tad worried about being able to stack Wildcat and Stick together with someone like Iron Fist. That combo essentially makes it so that any fighter he is training has less of a deterrent for re-rolling dice. One suggestion would be to make it "re-roll all dice" instead of "re-roll any or all dice". Basically make it an all or nothing second chance with repercussions. It helps minimize the effect of Wildcat as there were a couple of times where Stick's re-roll combined resulted in all skulls on 7-8 dice with Fist.

Re: The Book of Stick (public testing)
Oof, yeah, good call on finding that combo. Makes me wish Wildcat were Vigilantes and Proteges instead of Fighters and Proteges.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Stick (public testing)
Nice find. The games still looked pretty close, so I'm not super concerned it's broken or anything - both Wildcat and Stick have a weakness to range, so you're putting a lot of eggs into one basket with that strategy. We could always add a line like "The chosen figure may not reroll any more dice this turn" to eliminate the combo entirely if it's too strong (though you could reroll with Wildcat first with that scenario). But I think I'd prefer Stick's points going up a tad if it's seeming a bit much.

Re: The Book of Stick (public testing)
Annoying part about Wildcat's training is it endures even after he's dead. That's not the case for Stick at least.
And, yeah, if they put all their effort into one figure, that figure may be super juiced, but as soon as it falls your army probably falls apart. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Stick (public testing)
The closeness of the finishes leans me to also think he's just not far off on price and can be balanced. The all in approach has been tried before where you draft multiple support units for one juiced beat stick. It's a gamble that can pay off, but it's still a gamble. I was happy to see Thing II in on the action here. I haven't seen him much in tests since being released.

Re: The Book of Stick (public testing)
Thanks Karat and Splash! We've got Eric's tests pending, so I'll wait for those before making any changes.

Re: The Book of Stick (public testing)
Lots of wins in public testing, but most games were close - the big wins were due to a Wolverine that didn't die and failed Green Arrow/Speedy attacks. Would we feel okay moving on with a 20 point boost?
