Thanks, Tornado - I appreciate hearing you say that.

Your support here means a lot to me and I would have already quit this design without it.
Now we just have to convince a few more.

The more diversity there is, the more likely that will be.

Personally after reading that comic I do feel they are underpowered, yeah. That whole lot of Judges weren't even able to dent them, and even once they rolled that big laser tank out and shot Bob's head off it didn't even stop him right away. They didn't even kill the other three, just let them escape. So putting each one at the level of a single Judge seems off.

But what's done is done. They're fun designs that I play a lot and if I had objections to them I should've mentioned that while the thread was in progress.

Like this:

After revealing an Order Marker and before taking a turn with this T-Rex, take a turn with another Dinosaur Hero you control.

That is not how it works though. They operate in group, I would compare it more to a pride of lions, because of their leader.
Old One Eye will have group movement and a way to boost attack and Golgotha will bond with Uncommon Dinos.


That power you are proposing will almost surely appear on a Savage Land T-Rex when I get to that. That is what ZJ had on his version.


From your bio: The black tyrannosaur Satanus quickly dominated the other tyrannosaurs and became their leader,...

[Tornado]

They're fun designs that I play a lot...

That is more than I could ever hope for and I think once the Dino faction is complete you will be able to have a similar level of fun with that group.
I was able to deliver on B&C&T&R, all I am asking is that the group trusts me enough to put together the Dinos as a group.

We just need to get through this one to set the table for the rest.

[quozl]

OK, so they're solitary until they have a leader.

Sounds we like just need a bunch of one on one tests and they're ready to go then!

[Lazy Orang]

Bob & Carol & Ted & Ringo are units I've started to use a lot in testing, and I'd love to get the figures for them at some stage.

[Tornado]

Some of the official ones are pretty expensive, especially Ted.
I actually prefer the ones I got for $2 at Walmart.
The ones I got for $1 are pretty great because I actually made it so you can remove their heads.

If it was not so much to ship overseas, I would send you a set of figures. Perhaps once I get my loot from my Heroscape figures I sold, I can work it into the budget.

[Karat]

I haven't been as outspoken, but my main complaint here is the theme jumping. It makes it difficult to get a feel for how they should be. I'm in support of the design in general, but I would greatly prefer that publisher be settled on. I feel that it will greatly lessen the amount of ambiguity there is in this design, which, I feel is causing a lot of the issues that are being had here.

[Tornado]

It is settled. I thought being open minded and supremely flexible about their origin would make it easier to LD them. I should have known better.

[Karat]

Hey, we're all human. We live and learn

I'm actually getting to the point where I want to seethem get done so we can see the next piece of this budding faction...and I definitely want to see some Raptors get done.

[Tornado]

Me too.
Lobs suggested bumping up Weak Minded to 4 or more. Anyone else interested in this?
