The Book of Solomon Kane
The Book of Solomon Kane C3G DARK HORSE WAVE 24 THEY CAME FROM BEYOND! Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a repainted Confrontation figure from the Griffins set. It is available in the Demon Hunters Unit Box (6 figures). The name of the figure is Demon Hunter. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - Famous for his quest to rid the world of evil in all its forms, Solomon Kane vanquishes evil not only to protect the world but atone for his past misdeeds. He is often depicted as a stern pale man in his forties. Being an Elizabethan puritan he looks upon all magic as being of devious origin and a phenomenon he has to fight by all means. This fight also allows him to quench his inner rage and unleash his berzerker like temper onto beings he shall feel no regrets for exterminating.

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
NAME = SOLOMON KANE
SPECIES = HUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = VINDICATOR PERSONALITY = FANATICAL SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 6 RANGE = 5 ATTACK = 3 DEFENSE = 5 POINTS = 160 RIGHTEOUS RETRIBUTION Start the game with 1 black Retribution Marker on this card. If a friendly figure within clear sight of Solomon Kane receives one or more wounds from an opponent's attack, you may place your Retribution Marker on the attacking figure's card. Before Solomon Kane attacks a figure with your Retribution Marker on its card, you may return the marker to this card and add 2 to Solomon Kane's Attack number for the remainder of the turn. If a figure with your Retribution Marker on its card is destroyed, place the marker back on this card. MASTER SWORDPLAY If Solomon Kane attacks an adjacent figure with his normal attack and at least one skull is rolled, he may attack an adjacent figure again. He may continue attacking adjacent figures, rolling 1 fewer attack die for each subsequent attack, until you fail to roll a skull. Before any of these attacks, if you reveal an "X" Order Marker on this card, you may add one automatic skull to that attack. KEEP THE FAITH Any time an opponent would take temporary or permanent control of Solomon Kane, you may instead remove one unrevealed Order Marker from this card. Can you defeat a mind such as mine?

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
Naturally the power order should change ("Start of Game" power first, then Swordplay, then Faith).
I'd prefer 5/4 for Move/Defense, but if we only want to drop one I'd rather move Move down to 5 and keep Defense as-is. Re-reading it seems sort of odd to me that he's a "Fanatical Wanderer" with the power "Relentless Avenger" which uses "Retribution Markers." I think moving things around a bit there to make it more aesthetically consistent would help some. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
If anything I'd prefer to move down Defense and keep Move as it is. I'm not too strongly attached to either one, but I feel Move is slightly more thematic for him.
I can change the markers back to being Vengeance markers, which might help a bit. From there, I'm not really sure what to say. Maybe change his personality to Relentless? Although then Relentless Wanderer sounds a little odd. Can you defeat a mind such as mine?

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
Maybe change the name to "Unrelenting Avenger?" It's just that "Relentless" has such personality connotation in HeroScape.
Vengeance Markers would be preferable for me too I think. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
I'm wondering if his class shouldn't be Vindicator.

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
Not sure on that part. I was kind of trying to bring some of those connotations in. This is a guy who will track someone down across several continents and oceans to get retribution for a crime committed over a year ago. That feels less "unrelenting" and more "relentless", imo. Especially since we're trying to bring across a trance-like berserk rage...
I'll make the change to Vengeance markers when the grace period is up. Vindicator would work. I originally had three possibilities with Vindicator, Wanderer, and Avenger, so I'm fine with any of those. Can you defeat a mind such as mine?

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
Need to specify that the markers are going on the opponent's cards.
4 might be a bit many--four auto-skulls plus his attack dice, which can be boosted by a number of friendly figures=yikes. Yes, I know he'd have to stay alive long enough to get all four, but that's what Beat Cops are for. |

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
Yeah, that could be a problem... Maybe change it so there are more markers, but there's a cap on how many auto-skulls can be added using it? So if, for example, there's a figure that manages to get all four on his card, that just means Kane gets two turns where he gets a single attack with 2 auto-skulls? It could help balance it a bit...

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
You could just limit it to where a figure can't have more than 2 Vengeance Markers on their card.

Re: The Book of Solomon Kane - Design Phase
Yep, like this (also added in "your" in case there is more than 1 Solomon Kane on the battlefield):
RELENTLESS AVENGER Start the game with 4 black Retribution Markers on this card. Whenever a friendly figure within clear sight of Solomon Kane without your retribution marker on its card receives wounds from an opponent's figure's attack, you may place one of your Retribution Markers on that figure's card. When Solomon Kane attacks an opponent's figure, you may add 1 automatic skull for each of your Retribution Markers on that figure's card. If you do so, remove all your Retribution Markers on that figure's card from the game. |
