The Book of Crimson Dynamo
The Book of Crimson Dynamo _________________________________________________________________ C3G MARVEL SUPER SECRET EXCLUSIVE 23 ARMORED ANTAGONISTS Comic PDF Mini PDf The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Armor Wars set. Its model number and name are #070-072 / Crimson Dynamo. Its model number and name are #212 / Gennady Gavrilov. Character Bio - Gennady Gavrilov, a Russian collegiate, became the eighth Crimson Dynamo after he found the helmet of a suit designed by Anton Vanko - a "Beta unit", based on but improved over the original, with its very own recharging satellite in orbit. Believing the helmet to be a sophisticated gaming system, Gavrilov caused the dormant armor to awaken and make its way towards the helmet, inadvertently leaving a trail of destruction. He would eventually, if briefly, wear the entire armor in a standoff with the Russian military. He kept the armor afterward.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
NAME = CRIMSON DYNAMO
SECRET IDENTITY = GENNADY GAVRILOV SPECIES = HUMAN UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO CLASS = STUDENT PERSONALITY = OPPORTUNISTIC SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 4 MOVE = 5 RANGE = 1 ATTACK = 5 DEFENSE = 5 POINTS = 150 ELECTRICAL BLAST SPECIAL ATTACK Range 4. Attack 4 and 3. Choose a figure to attack. You may also choose one other figure within 2 clear sight spaces of the targeted figure to be affected by this special attack. Roll 4 attack dice once for all figures. Each figure rolls defense dice separately. Figures with the Electrically Charged special power are not affected by Electrical Blast Special Attack. After attacking with this special attack, Crimson Dynamo may attack 1 additional time, rolling 1 fewer attack die for the subsequent attack. ARMOR PIERCING ROCKET LAUNCHER SPECIAL ATTACK Range 6. Attack 2. Only non-adjacent figures can be attacked with this special attack. For each skull rolled, the defending figure subtracts 1 die from its defense. After attacking with this special attack, Crimson Dynamo may attack two additional times.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
Looks great! Not super crazy about the class ... but I like the rest of it, powers, stats, etc.
A couple of quick wording fixes: ELECTRICAL BLAST SPECIAL ATTACK Range 4. Attack 4 and 3. Choose a figure to attack. You may also choose one other figures within 2 clear sight spaces of the targeted figure to be affected by this special attack. Roll 4 attack dice once for all figures. Each figure rolls defense dice separately. Electrical Blast Special Attack does not affect destructible objects or figures with the Electrically Charged special power. After attacking with this special attack, Crimson Dynamo must attack 1 additional times, rolling 1 fewer attack die for the subsequent attack. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
Borrowed the Electrical Blast Special Attack from Tickle's version in the Armor faction thread. He had mentioned I could use that design a long time ago.
I wasn't keen on the targeting thing like Warmachine had, nor the normal attack of 4, even though it was ranged, nor the move of 6. So I lowered the move to 5, base attack of 5 for melee and added the armor piercing rockets. He had Agent as class and Patriotic. But this version of CD was a Russian collegiate who found the helmet and thought it was a video game counsel and used it to call the armor, which caused lots of damage on the way. He then got into the armor and caused some trouble. So I didn't really have much to go on as far as class and personality.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
Hmm, now I'm wondering why you chose this kid for the secret identity - it seems like he only wore the armor very briefly.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
That's who the figure represents - each Crimson Dynamo, insofar as I know, had his own separate armor.
My feelings on the reuse of Armor Piercing Rocket Launcher is mixed... I know "Guys in Armor" is pretty small design space, but I feel like we could be a bit more unique there. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
Ah. Really weird they chose to do a mini of him unless there's more to his story than what I read on Wikipedia! Seems like he's just a college gamer who stumbles into the suit, takes it for a joy ride, and then gets to take it out like one more time against the Russian government.
Personally, I like Armor Piercing Rocket Launcher enough to see it reused. And I feel like we have a ton of variety in the "Guys in Armor" sector already. As long as the overall design feels unique, nothing wrong with bringing back a solid power. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
Well, Armor Piercing Rocket Launcher was already sort of a retread, since we tapped that design space with Punisher. But it hasn't been run into the ground, and I don't have any alternatives to offer at the moment, so just ignore me if no one shares the concern.
I think they just picked Gavrilov because he was the Dynamo pretty recently when the set was released and he had his own mini-series. JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
Did he appear more than once outside of that mini-series, though?
And, yeah, it hasn't been run into the ground yet. At the point we're at in terms of the overall number of powers we've designed, I think we should create new powers with some reluctance, as it's difficult to produce elegant powers at this point without them accidentally being differently named repeats of something that's come before. There's still some untapped design space here and there, of course, but it's getting tighter and tighter. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
I could always change the secret identity to Dmitri Bukharin,as he was the longest reigning CD from '78-'90. I don't have the mini version of that Crimson Dynamo, so someone will have to get the mini and get pictures of it.

Re: The Book of Crimson Dynamo - Design Phase
I like the mini of this guy & want to see it on my battlefield. I believe I have that second mini you pictured Hahma so I should be able to get the photos if you go that way. But Gennady mini is really much better looking.
