Re: The Book of Nightcrawler (Kurt Darkholme) (Breathing)
I was going to suggest a few changes here, but the last proposed version covers all of them. My only worry right now is the same as Ronin's. I think he compares well to Archangel, and the 260 range feels really high to me for this character. Not that we need to make more changes right away, but something to keep an eye on going forward.

I wouldn't compare him to Archangel, personally. Archangel has 2 more life, 2 more defense, 2 more range, and may use his auto-wounding power on 3 figures on not only his own defense(Nightcrawler gets at most 1 per defense, and he has to roll a blank to do so), but also after another figure within 3 clear sight spaces of him defends. I'd say all of that certainly makes a reasonable 30 point difference, IMO. Not to say Nightcrawler doesn't have his own pros above Archangel, but I feel when everything is considered, Archangel is still the better performing figure, by around 30 points.
Alright, with those changes made, I think we're good to take this to initials to get a better idea point wise, where he falls. I propose a vote to move to Initial Playtesting. @Viegon @TrollBrute @Yodaking @Tornado @johnny139 @japes @Zettian Juggernaut |

Heavy Hitter or Mid-Level Hero Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No? Yes - What should be the unit's point value? 220 - Give a brief overview. Nightcrawler went 1-4 in his games at 230. Hitting a roll of 17 or higher isn't likely, and he was only successful with it 3-4 times over the course of the 5 games. On defense, he managed to stay in the fight in most cases, but ultimately the other figure faired better in each outing except for Venom who had some poor luck on his d20 and Slashing Tendril rolls. Map: Custom
Spoiler Alert!
___________________________________________________________ Squad Test - Does it pass, Yes or No? Yes - What should be the unit's point value? 160 - Give a brief overview. Both games finished with 1 Blood Demon remaining. In the first game the Blood Demons didn't get a successful Blood Curse unblockable roll once, yet still managed to win. In the 2nd game, Harley stuck with just her POP! Gun Special Attack to avoid potential Blood Curse rolls, but eventually botched a defense roll which finished her off. Map: Custom

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: He certainly does better when the roll required is only 14+, but at that point he plays probably too good for his point value, by about 20-30 points. Without the boost however, he seems to play a bit under his point value by 10-20 points. One factor while playing that felt a bit odd, was that you can just circle the same figure with Nightcrawler, rolling the d20 3 times, then use an attack of 5 on said figure. It seemed to be a bit much. With a high roll requirement, there weren't crazy results of massive damage that spawned from this, but at the same time, it just seemed to be a bit overkill on how much Nightcrawler can attempt to do on 1 figure. So, going for a simple change to address said issue, how about this: Quote:

Re: The Book of Nightcrawler (Kurt Darkholme) (Vote for Init
Sorry I didn't (couldn't) read everything above but it looks like you changed his power to an attack so he can't hit multiple times and then regular attack. I like it. Being a mutant I also appreciative the change from a D20 power so I like it as well. It also more distances this character from the Nightcrawler we know. If that's the only change I have no issue with it.
Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those. |
