​

_________________________________________________________________

Character Bio - At birth, Broly's most curious feature was his inordinate power level of 10,000. This anomaly meant that Broly's power had already been close to that of Bardock and King Vegeta at the time of their deaths. King Vegeta feared the threat the boy posed to his empire, and so he gave the order for the infant's execution. Broly's father, Paragus, begged the king to spare the child's life, attesting that his son could be an extremely valuable asset to King Vegeta and his son. King Vegeta was quick to point out that while this is true, the same is true that Broly could use his ever-increasing strength to overthrow the Saiyan royal family. King Vegeta closes the argument by sentencing Paragus to death, shooting him with an energy wave. Broly is then stabbed in the chest and left to die with Paragus. But they didn't die...

Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

NAME = BROLY
SECRET IDENTITY =

SPECIES = SAIYAN
UNIQUENESS = EVENT HERO
CLASS = DESTROYER
PERSONALITY = SAVAGE

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 12

MOVE = 7
RANGE = 1
ATTACK = 8
DEFENSE = 6

POINTS = 800

SMASHER LARIAT
After moving, you may choose a figure Broly passed over with his Flying special power and place that figure on any space Broly passed over. After placing the chosen figure, roll 1 unblockable attack die against the chosen figure. Figures moved by Smasher Lariat will not take leaving engagement attacks.

ERASER CANNON SPECIAL ATTACK
Range Special. Attack 6.
Once per round, you may choose a space within 5 clear sight spaces of Broly. All figures on or within 2 spaces of the chosen space are affected by this attack. Roll attack dice once for all affected figures. Broly may not attack with this special attack unless there are 4 or more Wound Markers on this card.

LEGENDARY SUPER SAIYAN
Figures engaged with Broly subtract 1 from their Attack and Defense numbers. After Broly attacks with a normal attack, if there are 8 or more Wound Markers on this card, he may attack with his normal attack one additional time.

Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

Man, two DBZ lots and yet another character I don't think I have a figure for. Ya'll are killing me. Design a Monster Carrot as restitution, please.

Design looks good! I like that he gets stronger and unlocks an SA when he takes wounds. I think that SA needs some wording help, but intent is easy enough.

I might suggest discarding the SS-clause in the Lariat, since that just makes him a tad swingier. Either just one unblockable against all figures, or 2 unblockables but maybe once per round or something. But that's my personal preference. No issues otherwise.
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

Maybe the 2 unblockables on Lariat when he has a certain amount of wounds? Personal preference here too, and probably doesn't make him any less swingy, but it ties into the mechanics on the other two powers. Really like the design, feels appropriately Broly!
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

Powerhouse.
Does he grab people and then drop or smash them?

At this point, I think I'm the only one that got a Broly figure. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks! That may be worth looking into.
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

Nice. Yeah that looks like SS is not going to help.
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

It’d be neat if the wound bits were a little more standardized. 2 and 5 feel like really random numbers, so it may take up a little more headspace than needed.

I kind of like him unlocking new abilities at different wound amounts, personally.
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

Does this read a little better for the SA?

ERASER CANNON SPECIAL ATTACK
Range Special. Attack 6.
Once per round, you may choose a space within 5 clear sight spaces of Broly, all figures on or within 2 spaces of the chosen space are affected. Roll 6 attack dice once for all affected figures. Broly may not attack with this special attack unless there are 2 or more Wound Markers on this card.

Yeah I think that's better! I'm wondering if we should put the "once per round" clause along with the wound markers at the end. Not sure we've used that language like that in SAs before.

For sure, I just think 2 and 5 aren’t the easiest numbers to remember. If he had 12 life and unlocked moves at 2, 4, and 6 wounds (just as an example) I think that would feel a lot cleaner.

I mean, I would be okay with that just to keep it easier to remember.
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

You don't need to state the 6 attack dice in the power text. That is covered by the attack value. Otherwise the most recent version looks good.
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

So I made a few changes here. Added the 2, 4, 6 Wound Marker count down. I also added the ability for him to attack anytime before, during, or after moving. I feel like it would be pretty thematic for him to be able to do that. If it looks out of place, let me know.

What do you guys think of the changes?

NAME = BROLY
SECRET IDENTITY =

SPECIES = SAIYAN
UNIQUENESS = EVENT HERO
CLASS = DESTROYER
PERSONALITY = SAVAGE

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 12

MOVE = 8
RANGE = 1
ATTACK = 8
DEFENSE = 8

POINTS = 600

LARIAT
After moving, you may choose a figure Broly passed over with his Flying special power and place that figure on any space Broly passed over. After placing the chosen figure, roll 1 unblockable attack die against the chosen figure, or 2 unblockable attack dice if there are 2 or more Wound Markers on this card. Figures moved by Lariat will not take leaving engagement attacks.

LEGENDARY SUPER SAIYAN
Figures engaged with Broly subtract 1 from their Attack and Defense numbers. When Broly attacks with his normal attack if there are 4 or more Wound Markers on this card he may attack normally 1 additional time.

ERASER CANNON SPECIAL ATTACK
Range Special. Attack 6.
Once per round, you may choose a space within 5 clear sight spaces of Broly, all figures on or within 2 spaces of the chosen space are affected. Roll attack dice once for all affected figures. Broly may not attack with this special attack unless there are 6 or more Wound Markers on this card.

Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

So he can also attack with the SA anytime during his move too?

If you have the double attack online can you move between the attacks?

For sure, I don't see why he couldn't for either.

Is the wording confusing?
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

I’m not sure I like the ability to attack whenever on Broly. I feel it’s often used to kite, though without Disengage I’m not sure Broly would actually use it like that (especially since he wants to be engaged to debuff enemies). I view Broly as more of a brute who stays focused right on whoever he’s fighting - it’s up to the opponent to run away from Broly.

I like the rest of it though. Unlocking several different abilities based on wounds might be a bit much in practice, but that’s what testing is for. He’s a one man army so it’s okay for him to be a little more complex.

Right on! Thanks for the feedback, that makes sense. Gonna go ahead and lose that.
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

Just wanted to make sure that's your intent with the SA one.

I think the double attack one is a bit questionable if you want him moving between them?

Like Hit Girl and such don't use the standard double attack wording. They have a thing about being able to attack twice in a turn. The not important Super Skrull specifically spells out he can teleport and then attack.

Not sure if just having regular 'when I attack, I attack some more', lingo is clear he still has time between those attacks to do other things.

Probably worth doing something a bit closer to Combat Dexterity? Not really sure what the best lingo would be.

Oh okay, yeah. I went ahead and removed the whole moving and attacking thing.

I'll look into that for future designs. Thanks for the help!
 
Re: The Book of Broly (Beefing)

I propose we move to Initial Playtesting

Is 600 an appropriate starting point for this guy? I put his stats in the calculator and made a guesstimation.
