It's still October, and unlike Wal Mart, I'm not done with Halloween yet. So grab some candy and an apple cider! Just eat around the razor blades...
I often get asked a lot about doing more "In-Game" effects, in addition to the normal build requirements. Now, usually these side things are forgotten and it becomes "Let's Fight", but this is so thematic I had to go with it. It was partially inspired by the latest episodes of "Tales of the TMNT", where Savanti Romero went through time recruiting Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster (Frank as Mikey calls him), The Pharoah's Mummy and a Werewolf. The Turtles and Renet Tilley try to stop him. And more than a little of "Thriller"... but that's obvious.
Players will need two teams. One is a super hero team. Let's leave Uni-Mind and "Balls O'Fury" at home please? The other is a Monster/Mystical team. You can decide however you want who plays which team. Second player is Heroes, First player is Heroes, whatever.
You'll probably notice that the Supernatural team has a bit more in the way of bonuses. You can balance this out if you want, but I figured it's Halloween, Friday the 13th is this month... they're going to be at the Apex of their Power... it fits. And if your players don't get too min/max, the Supernaturals are going to need the help!
So here's what I have:
Quote
400 points
Oreo Age
Hero team and
Supernatural team (Monsters and Mystical types. No characters over 200 points. No colossals starting on Col Retaliation clicks.)
Darkness falls across the land: A character, power or effect can’t target a character, object, or square more than 6 squares away.
The midnight hour is close at hand: Each player takes 6 turns, after which for the rest of the game, the Supernatural team is +1 to Combat values
Creatures crawl in search of blood: Figures on the Supernatural Team can use Sidestep, but only to move closer to an opposing figure that is not on Click 1 within 5 squares.
Stand and face the hounds of Hell: Characters with the Animal keyword can use the Animal ATA at no cost.
You fight to stay alive: Place a Protected token on each Hero Team figure's card. When they would be KO'ed, instead remove the token and click the figure to the last click before KO.
They're out to get you: Highest point figure on the Hero team can choose one Equipment Object and begins the game with it equipped. Supernatural team can use a Resource
That song is going to be stuck in your head for about 2-3 days. Doing multiple teams like this addresses the concern that I hear on the Realms a lot: too many figures not getting played. Well with this scenario, you're playing 2 different teams! That should cross a few checks off the "Need to Play" list! Feel free to limit what resources can be used if you want to get more thematic. Black Lantern Battery, Millenium Stone, maybe even the Book of the Skulls.
Don't forget items like the Helmet of Fate, Straightjacket or the Eye of Agamotto.
That's it for this installment of Causing A Scene-ario!
Contrary to popular belief, I do know what I'm doing
