[IAmBatman]

Champion's Charge is the big change here, opening it up to who can benefit from it and tying it to an "X" so Hawkwoman can recharge it. Want to do at least sanity tests here. Y'all can let me know if you think more than that is needed.

[MrNobody]

Thanks for working with me.

[IAmBatman]

No worries. I think it should be a fun change!

[japes]

oh neat. So does Hawkwoman work here or does she only restore "Removed OM" and not revealed ones?

[IAmBatman]

The intent is for them to work together. I forgot to double check that. Yeah, looks like she works off of previously removed, so I'll have to tweak that wording here. Good catch

it was one of those thing were I thought i remembered us talking about that was the goal but then I wasn't sure.

[Yodaking]

Seems like a fun card. I like the change to Officer here and the X removal as a trigger. Just one thought, should his ignore height advantage power have a height limit like we are doing with Ariel Advantage?

[IAmBatman]

Well I think the theme is more about his being a really sharp-eyed sniper than about his flying as much, so I'm not sure what specific height range would be appropriate. That ability is already a bit wordier than ideal as well, so I lean towards wanting to keep it more elegant.

[Yodaking]

Okay with me, just a thought I had since I'm dealing with AA on Thundercracker right now. I like how it negates our cover rules too. I see it as him flying around a bit looking for the best angle of attack before shooting.

Neat changes from 1.0. Champion's Charge is slick

[IAmBatman]

I propose we move to Playtesting for sanity testing!
