whoops.....almost forgot...... all are welcome to commnet on my new creation.... likes dislikes....changes that should be made.....


thankyou..

Rathan, I like it. But I'd simplify it to just having the user need to go first in the round...if that. "after their move but before their opponents" just sounds too cumbersome.

Any reasoning for why you structered it that way?

 

[Rathan]

just to keep them from using it after their opponent ghens their move really....... Wicht can word it batter than me when and if he adds it anyways......

 

[Rathan]

also.....wicht..... I'd like to see some thought/discussion about being able to customise the powers that are inculded in the (Un)Holy Batteries.......

All thoughts/idea's/exclusions are welcomed...... especially from Wicht....

 

[Wicht]

Hmm, I thought we would have already had a poison blade - seems so logical to have one as a power. Four experience points is a little high compared to say Ki strike. Three is probably a better cost. And the wording of the power should read something like....

Once per fight per poison blade known, a fighter may add a poison blade to any attack at the time the attack is posted. The attack, if successful, deals 1 extra point of damage. Poison Blade may be purchased more than once but cannot be used more than once in a round.

what do you mean by customizing the unholy/holy battery?

 

[Phoenix8008]

Hiya wicht. We were talking about the Battery customization last night in chat, so I'll put in a little of what Rathan said he was looking for and he can correct me or add to it when he posts.

I think he is wanting to make other Battery powers for concepts beyond Holy and Unholy. Taking different powers from the list of powers and putting them together to be useable in a fasion like the other Battery powers. Some people brought up things that they thought SHOULD NOT be included in any Batteries, like Epic powers, Undead powers, etc.

That's the gist of what he wants as I understand it. He can correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[Rathan]

yea.... Phoenix sums it up nicely.... I'd like to see (Un)Holy Batteries be able to be set up to meet a characters needs and wants.... I belive a characer should have a list of skills/powers to pick from that would go into there (Un)Holy Batteries....... this also creates diversity..... which is nice in a game that has a limited number of powers......


also wicht..... I would really like to see Poison Blade added..... just tweek it to how you see fit... I think it just diverses the way people can add points to a move.......

 

[Phoenix8008]

So does this mean that Poison Blade gets the official nod and can get added to the list of powers?

And what about Rathan's desired Battery customizations?

 

[Wicht]

Yeah - Poison Blade can be an official power as follows

Poison Blade
Requirements: May not be a Holy Warrior.
Experience Cost: 3
Effect: Once per fight per poison blade known, a fighter may add a poison blade to any attack at the time the attack is posted. The attack, if successful, deals 1 extra point of damage. Poison Blade may be purchased more than once but cannot be used more than once in a round. Poison Blade does not effect any creature with the undead power.


As for the customizable holy battery - I guess I would have to see what powers one had in mind for putting in them.
