Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Design

It was a lot of back-and-forth, but I'm happy with where we ended up.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Editing

to editing (even if my vote note needed).

Still not clear on Inflame if it stacks or is a one time use. If one time use, add "...you may remove a blaze counter to add 2 to this card's move value and 1 to its attack value for this turn."

If stacks then redo as: Inflame
"Start the game with three blaze counters. Before moving, you may add a blaze counter on this army card. Add 2 to this card's move value and 1 to its attack value for each blaze counter on this army card. The Ukushisa Pride may not add blaze markers and does not count Inflame if any of them occupy a water space."

It does not stack, at least I assumed it didn't. Other powers like Wait Then Fire do not clarify that, though yes, "for this turn" would be a good addition for clarity.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Editing

The intent was for it to only last for the turn. Heroscape almost never clarifies that for stat boosts, but that has also been a consistent point of confusion for new players. I’m fine with adding clarification for that sake.

Also, just realized we never really discussed a point value here. We don’t need one for editing, but might as well get our initial guess up. How about 110? 8/1/4/5 stats are nothing to sneeze at, even if they only have it sometimes.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Editing

I think the fact that they don't have range makes them not as good as Nakita/Krav Maga Agents, but they are large and 8 move. I'd say not quite as good as Tagawa Samurai, so 100-110 range seems good. I know we are still theoryscaping this unit but if 100 makes them A- and 100 makes them B+, which are we aiming for?

They don't feel 20 points more than the Marrden Hounds, so 100 points is my guess.

Long live heroscape

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Editing

I don't think they'll be an A- or even B+ at 100. I think 100 is pretty good, at least as a starting point.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Editing

Quote:
Inflame
Start the game with three Blaze counters on this Army Card. Before moving, you may remove a Blaze counter to add 2 to this card's Move value and 1 to its Attack value for the remainder of that turn. The Ukushisa Pride may not Inflame if any of them are on a water space.

Lava Resistant
Ukushisa Pride figures never roll for molten lava damage or lava field damage and they do not have to stop on molten lava spaces.
Suggested R&C:
Quote:
Q: Could the Ukushisa Pride use Inflame if one of them is on one water space and one non-water space?
A: No.
General Checklist:

1. Are we recycling a unit name? No

2. Are we recycling a power name? No, Lava Resistant is an existing power.

3. If we are reusing an existing power, is the wording exactly the same? Yes

4. What happens when the powers are negated (Rod of Negation, Exploit Weakness)? If affected by Rod of Negation, the Pride could no longer make use of Blaze counters, and would be affected normally by molten lava and lava fields (though would not have to roll if already in molten lava). Exploit Weakness has no effect currently, though if reused could remove the Lava Resistant protection for a turn. Do any powers continue to have effects after being negated? If a negation effect could affect them in the middle of a Blaze turn, the effect would remain for the duration of the turn as it is a defined duration. Is this clear from the wording? Yes

5. Should the powers affect destructible objects? N/A

6. Do any of the powers unintentionally synergize with other players' units? No

7. Do the powers allow turn stacking? No

8. Are any of the powers conditional on a future event? No Is that future event inevitable or avoidable?

9. Does it have a d20 power? No If is a small, medium, or large Hero, how does it interact with Mystic Sacrifice? If it is Tricky, how does it interact with Queen of Thieves? If it is Undead, how does it interact with Curse of the Mummy?

10. Do the powers create out-of-turn attacks? No

11. Are any powers conditional on the source of damage? No

12. Are any powers expected to work after all figures have been destroyed? No If so, is that clearly worded? How does it interact with revivals, via Glyph of Sturla or otherwise?

13. Do any powers that decrease attack or defense dice introduce a new minimum value (other than zero)? No

14. Do any powers change a Range value from 3 or less to 4 or greater or vice versa? No

15. Do any powers act unexpectedly in multiplayer games? No

16. Do any powers place other figures on this card? No If so, how does it interact with other place-on-card powers (Animated Materiel, Cling, Dwarven Gunners, Warriors Armor Spirit, Warriors Attack Spirit, Warrior's Swiftness Spirit, Necromancy)?

17. Does a power trigger off of an Order Marker being revealed on another Army Card? No If so, is the power expected to trigger if all figures associated with that Army Card have been destroyed?

18. Is it clear which powers are mandatory and which are optional? Inflame is clearly optional. Lava Resistant is clearly mandatory.

19. How do the powers interact with the Marro Hive? Nothing special.

20. If the unit is a Soulborg squad who follows Jandar, how do the powers interact with Directed Fire? N/A

21. Does any power's name or wording unintentionally prohibit the power's reusability? Inflame could, in theory, be reused with a different theme, but the thematic version is needed here.

22. Does the text fit reasonably well on a card? Yes Use this tool to check: https://www.heroscapers.com/xorlof/x2cc.

Re: [Pod 1] UKUSHISA PRIDE (Blazing Firecats) - Editing

I believe I intended Ukushisa to be plural when I wrote it in as the species. It sounds better than "Ukushisas" I think.

Excellent. I updated the above. This is ready to move to Playtesting.

Please update the OP with the following, and add a link to the Editing Checklist.
