Thank you for the huge compliment. I didn't want to bog him down with too many powers, so the SF seemed like the perfect mechanism to allow me to do most of what I wanted without over-saturating one dial.

Human Torch: This is a great design for a combat oriented Johnny. The Nova Blast trait is probably one of the best interpretations of his Nova heat I've seen and I like how his damage potential for the trait is at it's best when is attacks are weaker to prevent him just getting Perplexed like crazy then thrown out for a big alpha strike.

To be honest, I had a hard time with this version of Johnny. I wanted his points to be focused on offense, and I wanted to get away from the simplistic treatment SF designs get from WKs. In retrospect, I might have gone too far.

That may be a reoccurring them for this set, going too far with the designs...

High Evolutionary: Triple target Incap? That alone makes it known that you designed this dial, but as cool as it is, that's not the coolest thing about this dial, that is his evolution ray trait. I love how the Evolution marker can double as both a negative effect, and a positive effect in such a cleaver and unique fashion, he could use it to give a friend some cool late dial power, or force an opponent to use their late dial Toughness rather then top dial Invincible, but he doesn't stop there. His last click is certainly a doozy, and I can see it being very tough to get him off, however to my knowledge the STOP key phrase already grants the power Pulse Wave protection, so having it in the trait may be redundant.

Crimson Dynamo: Strange to not see the Crimson Dynamo armor get the Armor symbol, but in terms of the set it is a good thing or else most of the set list wold be 90% unoccupied Armors. I like this dial, he's a solid ranged piece that can either switch to being a close combat fighter after taking a hit, or you can opt to play him at a lower point level and get more use out of the cool special power.

Good call on the PW protection, thanks. This is one of the guys I think I tried to cram too much into. I should have either focused on the Evolution ray effects or the armor-won't-let-me-die effect. I just couldn't bring myself to cut either one, so oh well. What's one more overcrowded design?

I was going to do him as an armor, but I eventually decided to narrow my focus and just make a few normal armored characters.

As always, I really appreciate the feedback.

I have to say, there is very little I enjoy more than using the RAM ability. There is just nothing quite the same as running people over and than laughing at the enemies.

I like how this use of ram only becomes a bad thing if you manage to hit three+ characters. I also love the pic you chose for this, as that would be one awsome sculpt to run people over with.

Armor Symbol:
Armors can not be assigned a resource.

Armors can not be given an action unless they have a pilot or AUTOPILOT.

As long as this Armor has no pilot, adjacent friendly standard characters have “POWER: Become this Armor's pilot.” Pilots are removed from the map and placed on the Armor’s HeroClix card. A character is only a pilot as long as it’s on the Armor’s card due to an action that made it the pilot.

If an Armor has a pilot, it has “POWER: Place the pilot adjacent.”

Armor modify their Attack +1, if the printed attack value of the pilot is higher than the Armor's printed attack value.

When an Armor is KO’d, place the pilot in or adjacent to its square and roll a d6.
1-3 : Deal the pilot 2 unavoidable damage.
4-6 : Deal the pilot 1 unavoidable damage.

Obliterator: This guy is a bonkers cool range attacker. The sheer amount of chaos he's capable of with that special damage power alone is enough to justify playing him at 200 points. I like the Colossal Stamina trait you have going on with him and the other Elders, I'm assuming by basic range action that prevents him from using Pulse Wave or Psychic Blast every turn? I think it would be a bit too much if he could. The two STOP clicks make him hard to KO but his defense values are low enough that he's not impossible.

Stealth Armor: Nice cheap edition to the line up of armors, the special Stealth power is clever and does a good job of representing the Armor being hard to see by effectively turning off the accuracy increasing portion of RCE or anything else. The one penetrating damage when he fails breakaway is a neat trick and helps make up for the lack of a breakaway bonus from the HSS.

Runner: I'm really loving the design on this guy because it just looks so dang cool, I would love to try out this dial at least once if it were real. Just like you did with your design for Blur in the Squadron Supreme set you've managed to make this guy feel insanely fast without even giving him HSS on his top click, the damage special is powerful but kept in check by his relatively average attack and damage values. Making him unable to be carried or placed was a great move, I'm glad you made sure he couldn't be TK'ed to increase his already large threat area.

The penetrating damage comes from the comics when he lights Titanium Man on fire with his boots rockets as he tries to crush Tony to death.

Yeah, the can't be carried or placed part was a late addition to the design. I didn't want him to be TK'd out then P/PB sidestep flurry on someone.

Thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment.
