Floronic Man is basically a mad scientist that has something to do with the creation of Poison Ivy. Bats told me once but I can't quite remember.

I believe he was involved in the creation of Ivy, at least at one point in the continuity. He at the very least was her Botany teacher (see the bio).

The link to the Evergreen Tree DO is in the R&C section, but standard formatting for figures that require Glyphs/DOs is to link below the figure information. (as in Frost Giant)

I apologize if this is not the correct location to post this question. Please direct me to the appropriate location if not! Just joined the community today after years of playing and reading, thanks so much for all the great work.

Question about Floronic Man’s Plant Animation ability: when choosing opponents affected, does Floronic Man roll for each opponent within range of every Evergreen or Jungle tile within his range, or does he choose one tile? It seems unclear based on the wording.

We had an example where there were 3 separate Evergreen trees within 6 spaces of him, and the player selected all of the trees, and rolled for wounds on something like 10-12 units. So many wounds....

Thank you!

It's one tree or one jungle piece.

And welcome to Heroscapers!

What he said above...also we get to say welcome and that indeed you posted in the right place. If you have a question about a C3G figure it's always best to post in their book.

ACCELERATED TREE GROWTH
Start the game with 1 Evergreen Tree Destructible Object on this card. After moving, before attacking, you may choose an empty space within 6 spaces of Floronic Man and place 1 Evergreen Tree Destructible Object from this card on the chosen space. Placed trees must fit on the battlefield normally. If you destroy an Evergreen Tree Destructible Object, you may remove all Wound Markers from its Army Card and place it on this card.

PLANT ANIMATION 12
After moving and instead of attacking, roll the 20-sided die for all opponents' figures within two spaces of an Evergreen Tree or Jungle Piece that is within 6 spaces of Floronic Man, one at a time. If you roll 12 or higher, the figure receives one wound.

The last line of Accelerated Tree Growth, what does the 'you' refer to. The player? So if I draft him and any of my units destroy a tree during the game, it gets placed on the card then? Asking in relation to my current (in sanctum) design if it isn't obvious.

[IAmBatman]

You is the player, yes. If it were Floronic Man, it'd say Floronic Man, I suppose. So I can't think of any other way to interpret it, which means that was probably my intention.

[Yodaking]

Cool, just wanted to make sure it worked the way I wanted it too for a testing idea. When I used Crystal the other day and found out she only gets her specific rock outcrop back, it kind of threw off my plans.

[IAmBatman]

Nah, I definitely recall that you were allowed to add trees that were already on the battlefield when they got destroyed.
