The Book of Swamp Thing (II)

[MrNobody]

Okay, SP updated. @Arkham , could you do a card update here whenever you have a moment?

[Ronin]

That wording is in the first power as well.

Not 100% saying you have to cut it though, worth seeking a second opinion.

[MrNobody]

Updated.

I'll tag @Karat and @SirGalahad but I've generally found that with this kind of wording detail, it's impossible to guess who will have an opinion. If they have something to say, I'm just kind of assuming they'll come out of the woodworks.

[Karat]

Two quick things.

GRASPING VINES 12
At the start of the game, you may place up to 3 Jungle Plant Destructible Objects on empty spaces on the battlefield. Whenever a player would begin the movement of a figure adjacent to Swamp Thing, an Evergreen Tree, or a Jungle Piece, you may roll the 20-sided die. If you roll 12 or higher, that figure may not be moved this turn.

VEGETATIVE MUCK
When Swamp Thing defends against an attack, the most wounds he can take from this attack is two. At the end of the round, if Swamp Thing is on a grass, swamp, or swamp water space, or isadjacent to an Evergreen Tree or a Jungle Piece, or on a grass, swamp, or swamp water space, remove a Wound Marker from this card.

For pasteability:

I don't think that's the intent with Jean Grey and figures of her ilk. If a figure can move multiple times per turn, I think they should get a chance to try to move each time, and ST gets a chance to roll to stop them each time.

Vegetative Muck is a re-use, if we want to make that edit it's fine, but it doesn't seem needed.

[Karat]

Right, I just forget about some of those. Feel free to ignore that one.

As for VM, I was unaware of that, but then I don't play much with those units. I'm fine if we want to update it. It's slightly shorter and flows better, bit doesn't matter overly much.

I think this is much more clear:

AVATAR OF THE GREEN
All land spaces within 4 spaces of Swamp Thing are considered grass spaces in addition to their normal terrain type. Before taking a turn with Swamp Thing, roll a combat die. If you roll a shield, you may choose up to 2 Jungle Plant Destructible Objects that are either on the battlefield or destroyed, or instead 3 i If you roll a blank, you may choose up to 3. Place any chosen Jungle Plants on empty grass spaces.

I propose a VOTE for On Deck for this and the Jungle Plant.
