Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
Okay, I think it's time to circle the wagons on this one. I appreciate
@Scytale
's concerns that Aspect of the Dragon needs a more clearly defined activation window in order to work cleanly with Scape's ruleset. However, I also am sympathetic to the observation that the flexibility is what currently makes the power useful. With those in mind, I'd be open to reimagining this power a bit more broadly:

Curious what the rest of the Pod thinks about a change like this, or whether they'd prefer to remove Aspect of the Dragon entirely and workshop a completely new direction for a potential second power. @Zetsubo @Alexandros @Skinderella @NecroBlade @Astroking112 @flameslayer93 |

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
I much refer the current version, whether or not we decide it needs to be tweaked or reworded. That redesign is too complex, especially having two completely different uses wrapped up in one power.

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
How about the below? It keeps the flexibility, but gives a window on when the power must be activated.
ASPECT OF THE DRAGON At the beginning of each figure's turn, you may change Katryn Vade's size to huge until the end of the turn. |

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
I do miss the damage avoidance factor on the X marker, but I don't dislike this templating. Is there a way to combine those two things?

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
I like
@Captain Stupendous
' suggestion to increase the usefulness of the power if we decide to limit its activation window. I'm not really a big fan of relying on the X OM here, though; I think that it'd be preferable to just use one of the unused markers in the box, especially if she has a way to remove it to ignore damage like some classic powers.

ASPECT OF THE DRAGONThis changes it from requiring an active decision each turn to just defaulting to whatever you chose last. It loses some of the flexibility, of course, but you can still carry her with Theracus and then ignore Poisonous Acid Breath the next turn. Proud Member of Platyfly!

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
Unfortunately, the damage reduction ability probably does add more complexity than its worth.
I'd prefer not to allow Aspect of the Dragon to be activated at the beginning of opponent's turns because it requires you to remember to declare it before your opponent moves any of their figures, which will be annoying in practice. How about this for the power: Quote:

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
Does anything else in the set consider size thus far?

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
Yes; at this point Dienekes, Ozuul, and Vlad all have powers that only affect small/medium figures, so the Huge immunity to those powers will actually be fairly relevant in games using just the AotV figures.

Re: [Pod 2] Katryn Vade (Nahiri, Fuy in Stone) - Editing
Something to think about; what happens when Katryn becomes Huge while atop a Pillar of Hár? I'm not sure how official the wording is that "only small or medium figures can be placed", but if that wording is correct then I think we'll be fine if she changes back and forth while up there. (Of note, as a melee figure she doesn't have much reason to climb in the first place, but it is a possibility.)
