How wierd... I came up with a card VERY similar to DIVEBOMB as WK made it, and called it DIVEBOMB!

I'm not calling shenanigans or anything, I know they make those cards well before I even get a vague idea. But Still, I think it's novel at the least.

My Divebomb can be found in the link in my sig, if you're intereted, including a mock-up card (w/ art).

Don't forget that the new rules will make it more difficult for a Wildcard to switch around between TAs though...

Socially, you are correct...Technically, though you are mistaken. If you said Next Wednesday then TECHNICALLY the next Wednesday is the first one to come up which would be the 17th.

We actually use "See you next Wednesday," as slang for, "I will see you the Wednesday of next week."

Actually, he is. He is the only character that can pounce a character while staying in soaring.

Um...this also helps non-ranged flying melee characters also...so it isn't just turning into a ranged game.

Also, if you think the majority of comic book fights are melee then you read the wrong comic books...



That's not true...you can always use Charge, HSS, or even Pounce on Mimic

Sine most to all Close Combat Actions allow you a Close Combat Attack, you can use most of them with this card anyway. I understand where the confusion between the action/attack differences come from but it isn't a situation like Pounce which forces you to take a power action, I think it is power, because of the card and then that allows you a close combat attack.

That is the second time you have said there is a 50/50 chance you will be playing on an Indoor Map and it just isn't right...you have a 50/50 chance to choose the map but that is only close to what you are saying...

I don't think flying characters should be able to shoot out of soaring, maybe a feat later on that allows them to do so with some sort of negative effect, but not on their own.

It limits your team building options innumerably...I shouldn't have to have built in protection from soaring figures who can hit me from 10 to 12 squares away....it is WAY too limiting.

It's not about the 1 movement point...it's about the location of your character after your attack.

Let's saying I have Sauron in Soaring 3 spaces away from Morlock Leader....I can either charge down into hovering and attack with an 11 to her 15 and if I fail be ripe for a flurry/BCF combo...or I could charge in staying in soaring with a 9 attack and be immune from retaliation from her next turn(barring any outwit etc.)

Well Low Gravity and Swingline would work to get a character grounded and then knocked off a building. This combo with a force blaster could be really effective against KC GL.

*removes trick shot and adds Dive Bomb, Unstoppable, and Fortitude to his KC Superman as he uses the extra 10 pts to upgrade something.*

I would agree.

I'm curious to see how far this goes. Charge is a power action that gives a cc action...but cc actions result in cc attacks. Hmmm

On an unrelated note...I've often thought of the Next Wednesday analogy as being that of the 24th also.

The reason would be you have choices when dealing with positions in time. Last, This, Next.

If I'm speaking on Monday the 15th.

Last Wednesday was the 10th. This Wednesday is the 17th. Next Wednesday will be the 24th.

That's the way I've always seen it. The problem is the logic breaks down when we talk about Wednesday on Friday the 19th.

Last Wednesday was the 17th. This Wednesday is the 24th AND Next Wednesday will be the 24th.

Again...I said on an unrelated note.


I too wonder if the wording on the last part of the Swingline Card is ment for the affects of Earthbound to end at the beginning player whose been "Earthbound" or at the beginninng of the players turn who used Swingline.

Hasn't WizKids learned to stop using the word "IT" instead of actually clarifying what they want?????

all the feats so far have been horrible. dive bomb is stupid soaring is stupid the only people who use it are hypersonic speed. now swing line now thats a feat card. batman diserves it now we need thunderbolt like feat for the jla. and a fantastic four like feat for a dc team. mabe jsa or titans.

Yeah, it isn't very clear and I'm not saying I'm for sure which turn it is talking about exactly because they can always rule either way and it wouldn't be too "off."
