LEt's bring it to design and see what we can hash out.

Re: [Pod 0] Velnesh Alphas (Leyline Phantoms) - Editing
I'm a little leery of giving a figure the ability to teleport freely when targeted. The "targeting" phase of an attack is already pretty shaky rules-wise, so giving a figure the ability to move from one position to any other potential one during that phase raises a lot of questions we'd have to answer.
For simplicity's sake, we could just allow the Alphas to Shift after successfully defending against any normal attack, or any ranged normal attack. |

This would give us: LIFE 1 (3 figures) MOVE 6 / BASIC 5 RANGE 1 / BASIC 1 ATTACK 4 / BASIC 4 DEFENSE 4 / BASIC 4 100 POINTS PHANTOM WALK Velnesh Alphas can move through all figures and is never attacked when leaving an engagement. BLINK (I prefer the name PHASE SHIFT for this power but that's a quibble) When a Velnesh Alpha is targeted for a normal attack by an opponent's figure, you may place that Velnesh Alpha adjacent to the attacking figure. Velnesh Alphas will not take leaving engagement attacks while Blinking. |

I think the "before or after moving" thing is pretty key to the design, for me.

SHIFT
Before or after moving, you may place a Velnesh Alpha on any empty space within 2 spaces of its current location. Velnesh Alphas will not take leaving engagement attacks while Shifting. BLINK After a Velnesh Alpha rolls defense dice against a normal attack and is not destroyed, it may immediately use its Shift Special Power. Looks solid guys. Long live heroscape |

Re: [Pod 0] Velnesh Alphas (Leyline Phantoms) - Editing
"Before or after" makes perfect sense to me, honestly. I think we're in a good place. We should keep Evasive in mind for later, though.

Re: [Pod 0] Velnesh Alphas (Leyline Phantoms) - Editing
I think "before", "after", and "before or after" can all make the same amount of sense from a theme perspective, but the first and second aren't nearly as AP-prone as the third. Then again I suppose the board state can dictate what your options are on any given turn to an extent. Either way, I don't think fewer options here would necessarily be a bad thing.

Bumping this. Are we good to run them through the checklist?

Re: [Pod 0] Velnesh Alphas (Leyline Phantoms) - Editing
I'm good with the changes in the OP. If there's nothing else, then I think that we should be good to run these updates through the checklist now.
