The Book of the Hostage Holdout Scenario
The Book of Hostage Holdout Scenario Map: Corner High Rise After a bungled robbery at the Second National Bank, Two-Face and his associates fled to a corner high rise down in the slums. In an attempt to avoid capture, Two-Face’s gang used civilians as protective shields for the escape. Now, holed up in the apartment building with nowhere to go, Two-Face is threatening to kill the civilian hostages if the police surrounding the high rise don’t withdraw immediately. The police just need to hold the thin blue line until the superheroes arrive. But will they arrive in time? _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: Hostage Holdout Scenario - Design Phase
It's unclear ... is there a rule that the Civilians can't be attacked by Player 2 except during Hostage Execution?
Also, when they are attacked, who rolls defense? Finally, I don't like the turn interruption in the first sentence of Hostage Execution. I think that part needs to be revisited a bit. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Hostage Holdout Scenario - Design Phase
I will be playtesting this tonight, so if anyone has any suggestions, make them please. And I plan on playtesting it several times over just to get a good solid understanding.

Were you still planning to do an initial playtest for this one, Griff?

Re: Hostage Holdout Scenario - Design Phase
Well I spent my entire time just fixing the darn thing so that it was playable. The first post is updated, and I will have to play this Tuesday. I really wanted to play it tonight, but it was seriously broken. Player 2 could win every game on the opening move, and there were a ton of other problems. Oh well, I guess that is why we get paid the big bucks (as Hahma would say).

Re: Hostage Holdout Scenario - Design Phase
Yeah, I knew there were at least some major wording omissions. I'll read over what you posted more thoroughly in a bit here.

Re: Hostage Holdout Scenario - Design Phase
Hyperlinks added to the first post for easier reference to required C3G figures.
Quote:
A proposed solution would be allowing any Unique Hero to attack up to two Civilians every round (take out the adjacency part, take out the auto destroy part). This would put some more excitement in it as to whether you'd get one or both kills or not instead of making it automatic, and it'd also tempt you to use Two-Face's Heads You Live, Heads You Die power to avoid "Panic" movements. I also think it might be fun if you added in a gameplay aspect allowing the cops and heroes to be a bit more active in their rescue efforts. I understand why you got rid of the part about them removing civilians from the map (makes victory conditions too confusing), but what about giving them all a scenario-specific "carry" ability, (the cops at least, but Player 1's unique heroes would be cool too) that lets them drag the civvies out of harm's way?
