Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Playtesting
I am concerned about that. I'm also not in love with the minor memory mechanic of having to remember which Pride started where.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Playtesting
Whichever way we go, it looks like we should circle back to design here.
Is that something we should vote on, or should I just update the thread title? |

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Playtesting
I don't think we need a vote because no one is happy with a power. Just update the thread title.

Also note as worded both teammate's and opponent's figures with Lava resistance assist in the powers, but IMHO it is also thematic and makes sense in-game as counter to LR units. I had a similar idea with my Troglodyte Brutes, that makes for fun counter-drafting in home games but also a nice bonus in tournaments.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Playtesting
I was just expressing that if the desire was to want to boost them similarly to the B-11 that's going down and not up. Maybe that isn't the desire, I don't have a horse in this race but if I did I'd go with a power that doesn't get less useful.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Design
What are we actually going for here? Are we looking to have just any power that gives a conditional attack boost, or do we want this unit to remain effective endgame sharks? If we want the latter, then getting a boost from being adjacent to each other doesn't fit the bill. Not being able to spread out effectively would be a huge disadvantage in that scenario.
On the other hand, power ideas that power up the remaining Ukushisa when one or more of them are destroyed would be quite effective in that scenario. TLEB's Pride Revenge looks pretty good to me, although with that direction I'd just drop the water space limitation. I'm a little concerned that it's a lot less interesting than the B-11's similar power is, though. A ranged squad that goes from 2/2 to 5/5 as it loses members starts to play differently as it dwindles, where as going from 6 move 3 attack to 8 move 5 attack on 1 figure doesn't end up being that threatening. How about a more aggressive spin on things? Could we maybe nix the move boost on pride revenge, but bump the attack boost to 2? Suddenly, you go from a fairly ho-hum 3 attacks of 3, 2 attacks of 4, 1 attack of 5 to a very scary 3 of 3, 2 of 5, and 1 of 7. |

The direction works, but I don’t like giving a solo squad figure +4 attack. I could see +2M/+1A here, though.
