Too True CM. Lots of interesting stuff and as has already been said, how do you rate epics or unkillable beings?

Commentary

Naarkon:
All damage is melee; No Ranged Ability? Cost 100? This should be an Uber Epic!! Master Alter is fine against the dice. What about auto damage? A barrage of anything would kill her and sooner or later Escape Death won't help ....


CerousMutor:
Long-time no see dude! Love Host, Cost kinda low; The 13 Defense and slow Renewal seems like she may only teleport once; she has little to offer defensively and I wouldn't be caught dead too close, where she's designed to really get you. The ranged attacks will get her eventually I bet.


Lafcadio:
Like the Possessed ability. No Self Healing Ability? 160 HP with No Healing won't last long. I do like the character actually being one of the possessed; Honorable Mention for that alone ....


... and the Winner is ....


>Jace<: 3rd Place I like Presumed Dead, I toyed with Turn/Dark Side (no room on my card) but 280 HP seems excessive for a beast that's already pretty much unkillable with our game mechanics.


Jak: 2nd Place Other than me thinking a proper Abeloth should be 200, its nice; by the way, should "Stealing LFE" read "gains 30 HP up till its full 180 HP?" It could go over that conceivably.


General Grievous: 1st Place This girl may be more dangerous than mine ....

Again some more great work all around on a very different angle for the CCC.

My thoughts:



CerousMutor:
I really like the simplicity of this piece, especially for it's cost. Biggest issue I can see tracking who is an avatar and who has used what special ability/force power. It's very thematic that you have to defeat the team to get her down in health so points for that. She is extremely original and great job.

>Jace<:
Absolutely love this piece, a lot going on but it's all pretty much using exisiting abilities/force powers. And it really screams Abeloth to me. After you made the changes I can't really see what else to change here and as is she is an absolute combat beast to take down.

Jak:
A pretty cool take on a slightly lower-costed version of Abeloth. I think the Special Abilities are incredible and spot on. The Force powers are slick too but I still think plant surge could cause some confusion depending on maps and maybe should be a bit more generic. I like new abilities like that though, and recreating the feel of the living hostile planet earns some points.

Naarkon:
Points for using all existing abilities/powers and still keeping the number of them both down. Design on a piece you are a solid 10. Only thing is for 100 points she isn't going to be putting a whole ton of damage out. Though Fringe would allow her to have access to more options so perhaps that isn't an issue.

Lafcadio:
Despite her not fully feeling like Abeloth and only like a part of her (totally intentional on your part though haha) I really like the design intent with this piece. Reserves are a ton of fun, and her rival keeps her from breaking the bank on reserves. Only issue is I think diplomat may be a bit to powerful on her, but at 100 points and having to use up her force powers to fight it may still be ok. Plus once you kill her friends you can go after her. Pretty cool piece.

Surf Rider:
I want to give you first place just for designing an epic as it's pretty rare and cool. You also did a really good job on her as well. Love the Special Abilities and most of the force powers but I Forceful Transfer essence needs to be toned down a bit so as not to auto-kill other epics/BHC. But again awesome job!

My picks:

3rd: SurfRider
2nd: Lafcadio
1st: Jace


Edited for Cerous, i must have missed the change. It's perfect now haha

Jak hasn't voted yet; by our contest rules, votes for his piece don't count unless he votes; GG is winning, so gentlemen, how long shall we wait? Anybody know Jak personally?

Hmm, unless I missed something (which is altogether possible), I think I have 9 points, and GG has 8... Is that right?

Good job all!

How about for this week, a task-specific Rebel Soldier of some sort. (i.e. a sniper, or a medic, or a demolitions man, etc...)

When I came up with the idea, I was thinking No. But what do you guys think, should we allow uniques?

Sorry about that. I should have specified.

My idea is no, but most of you could guess that without my saying so .....

Yeah, let's say no unique characters for this week's competition. Having to compare uniques to non-uniques might throw things off a bit.

So, unless anyone would like to make the case FOR having uniques in, let's officially say that this week's comp is: a non-unique task-specific Rebel Soldier
