Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (whatever the first thing is)

NAME = MAGOG
SECRET IDENTITY = DAVID REID

SPECIES = HUMAN
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE HERO
CLASS = PROTÉGÉ
PERSONALITY = UNYIELDING

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 6

MOVE = 5
RANGE = 5
ATTACK = 5
DEFENSE = 5

POINTS = 330


ALL-STAR ASSAULT
After revealing an Order Marker on this card and before taking a turn with Magog, you may take a turn with one other Protégé you control. You may not take any additional turns with any other figures you control.

RECKLESS PUSH
While there is a revealed Order Marker on this card, all Protégés you control within 4 clear sight spaces of Magog add 1 to their Attack number and subtract 1 from their Defense number.

PRESS THE OFFENSIVE
When Magog attacks a figure with his normal attack, roll 1 additional die for each of the following that is true:
• That figure is adjacent to Magog.
• That figure has received a wound this player turn.
• Magog has not moved this turn.

SUPER STRENGTH

I like the changes from the last chance thread. He should be a nice boost for the Protege faction, basically being their Ms. Marvel.
 
Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (whatever the first thing is)

Yup, happy where this landed, good to see the JSA getting another infusion.

Figure should probably be Superman #019, unless we want to use the older, more expensive Kingdom Come one for some reason.

You know I dig it. :up:

Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (whatever the first thing is)

I dig it.

Is his "Magog has not moved this turn" meant to reference figure or player turn? Right now Stargirl can get him in position for an attack, which seems like a fun combo, but wanted to make sure on intent there.
 
Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (whatever the first thing is)

If this guy is a Protege, who is his mentor?
Love the fake SI.

It’s meant to be figure turn, I could change it to ‘his turn’ to help clarify since the bullet above it is talking about player turns.

If this guy is a Protege, who is his mentor?
Love the fake SI.

The JSA as a whole I guess? :lol:

Protege is just the ‘younger JSA’ class that was decided on years ago by other people. Not something I picked. (personally I would have done JSA synergy by personality or something)

I guess Magog specifically could have a different class since he’s the hot headed do his own thing guy, but honestly the Protege part of the JSA really does not need to be more fiddly.

That’s his actual Secret ID.

Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (V-IPT)

As a human imbued with godly power, he might qualify for just Human as species, like Captain Marvel. I assume he doesn't have a metagene, at least.

Yea
 
Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (ON HOLD)

This passed awhile ago

I'm going to add in the initial here later tonight/tomorrow (since I already did it ages ago), but I'm putting this design On Hold since there are significantly more time sensitive things I need to run and I am not known for my speed.
 
Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (ON HOLD)

Couldn't find my old tests I had halfway written up for this dude, so I redid them. Which means I've played so, so, many games with this stupid character I don't even like.


NAME OF THE PLAYTEST UNIT: Magog @330 points


Set 1
Map: Sewer Labyrinth
Units: Oh My Gog It's a Cyclone!: Magog (330), Damage (250), Cyclone (170)- 750 total vs Heroes for Fire: Luke Cage (190), Iron Fist (260), Moon Knight (150), Human Torch (150)- 750 total
Spoiler Alert!


Set 2
Map: Island Plane Crash (No E-Glyph)

Spoiler Alert!


Overall: I think he's fine. Like he's not super exciting, but the whole point is he's kinda a lame character and his card is just raw material to let other, actually interesting, characters see more play. JSA junior stuff definitely feels better as a whole with a less nightmarish bonding option than Power Girl, so mission accomplished IMO.

Not really sure on the price, felt decent at the moment but some of that's because there aren't like... any Proteges that can really max out his attack boost / most of them just aren't top tier cards in general. Might want to raise it up a touch just on the assumption of more range heavy Proteges coming in the future, but not really sure that's actually happening.
 
Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (BACK FROM THE DEAD)

Oh yeah, actual call for der vote for der Public Playtesting
 
Re: The Book of Magog (JSA) (V-PPT)

yea. At this point let any heavy hitter Proteges who come along bear the cost for what they bring. The faction obviously needs a lift, so I don't want to price this guy out of providing it.
