Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
Do we know they weren't able to be piloted? They looked like any other suit of armor he had to me, just with autonomous programming.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
They're just droids. The first Iron Legion was a bunch of Iron Man suits, but these guys aren't the same. They're made to be controlled by an AI, not for anyone to hop in and pilot

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
Yep. The original Iron Legion is already covered by Iron Man MK V. That’s from Iron Man 3 where Tony has all his empty suits attack. These are from Age of Ultron and they’re just robots. So they really shouldn’t have power armor since we are using that keyword for people in techno-suits of armor.

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
Yeah, they're droids, but they're droids specifically to design to look like Power Armor that are going to want to hang out almost entirely with other Power Armor rules. I think it's worth bending (I'm not even going to call it breaking) the rules here.

When I was talking about a protection/guard power, I wasn't really thinking a Beat Cop-style "absorb wounds" deal. That kind of power is insanely useful, and I think it'll make it incredibly hard for them to meet their projected 120 goal. Some sort of tie-down power could really help IM Mkv though, something like this: Quote:

For me the key was to not have to take a turn with V and still get full benefit of Vs bonding with another suit. Also agree on the no power armor for what its worth Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those. |

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
Just double checked and yeah you came up with the current version of the bonding japes! The working with MkV is def gonna stay around, no plans to add the "no additional turns" language.
Iron Grasp (cool name) sounds pretty solid, would keep the ranged Iron Man suits away from melee people. Gonna keep thinking of defensive powers but I'll keep this one around for sure. Quote:
--- The Drones have mini missiles like in the pic I posted higher in the thread, so could do an offensive power with those instead of a repulsor power. Quote:

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
You definitely don't want to keep the open bonding with too many figures then. No additional turns AND more open bonding will likely be very bad.
Weakening them to get to 120 should help ease worries there also. Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those. |

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
So I don't love Avenger Marker callouts on cards that don't hand them out, but I'll totally admit that's just a personal thing, we've clearly done that kind of callout on units like Coulson. My main question is if an Avenger callout is too damaging if you want to bring War Machine (or any other Tony ally) in a MkV army.
I also did realize we probably want to reword it slightly to make it play like originally intended. In my rewritten version, only 1 Drone can move per turn and only 1 Drone can attack, though if you reveal an OM on Tony you can do one of each. Something like this would be more like the original intent. Quote:
Here'd be my personal pitch. Again, I don't think it offers anything that you can't already get elsewhere, and I think it makes for more thematic builds than just an Avenger Marker callout. Quote:

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
I really like that version you proposed. I didn't love the idea of absolutely anyone being able to work with the Drones, but only being able to use it with Tony around makes sense.
Down to drop their stats as needed. Gonna start to update the SP |

Re: The Book of Iron Legion Drone - Breathing
I guess my question is if they’re ever shown using mini missiles? Honestly don’t recall. I do think it’s usually better to stick to things the character is shown doing, over something that’s just mentioned in say…a bio somewhere.
