Special Abilities

  • Emplacement (Cannot move or be moved. Set up anywhere on your half of the battle map.)
  • Gnullith Supplies (Replaces turn: choose 1 adjacent ally to gain Breath Mask (Not affected by abilities or Force Powers whose name contains Poison) for the rest of the skirmish.)
  • Villip Supplies (Replaces turn: choose 1 adjacent ally to gain Villip (this character counts as Yuuzhan Vong for the purpose of allied Commander effects and is considered to be within range of allies' commander effects) for the rest of the skirmish)

The Yuuzhan Vong created a gnullith-villip hybrid combining the function of both a communication device and breathing apparatus. In conjunction with lungworms and vacuum cloakers, the gnullith-villip hybrid allowed a Yuuzhan Vong to breathe and communicate in vacuum environments.

Did you just create two sources of supplies my guy can still? Cool!! BTW, did you just Not create a Sep as expected??

@Surf - Seps or Vong. You should be more shocked that it's Medium. ;P @GG - since Villup SA does stuff, shouldn't it have it on its card? (then you don't need to define it in supplies)

OK, after a less superficial look: full stop. Villup should not be generic 'adjacent ally' becomes Vong. Where are you trying to go with that?

Should villip grant relay orders? seems more appropriate.

@LB - I kind of like that if you steal the SA you suddenly have board-wide abilities and CE ... oh wait, if its against me, then never mind, I agree with LB after all.

So my reasoning for Villip is what they actually did, they were given as partly for communications devices across long ranges but also to Peace Brigade/non-Vong allies to allow them to communicate with the Vong, hence the CEs part but NOT the Vong Special abilities. But if that's too strong or brain wracking for combos I can make it just the latter part about considered to be in range.

And hahaha we made a combo piece Surf! Also Swine nailed it, Seps and Vong and occasionally Rebels TV show are my favourites. I occasionally branch out based on the week's challenge but brain is too fried from practicum lately to be able to go to deep this week haha

With Villip can Cad Bane or Bobba Fett become YV for the rest of the skirmish?

shmi "With Villip can Cad Bane or Bobba Fett become YV for the rest of the skirmish?" GG ducked that question when I asked, didn't he :)

Yes Fett or Cad would be considered to be a Vong FOR THE PURPOSES OF CEs only, they would be able to get potentially any of the following: Momentum, +2 extra movement, free attack at +4 or a reroll that they die if they miss, stealth, defensive stance +4, charging fire, one free movement if someone dies, re-rolling a Vong armour save (if you bring Vergere too), one free attack from an Executer, +2 to special abilities range, cunning attack, amphistaff.

None of those are remotely game-breaking or better than what they get in Fringe or Mandalorian via mandalorian Conscription (which makes them mandalorian for all purposes, not just CEs). And it's quite thematic as Fett actually was hired to work for the Vong and given a Villip to be able to communicate and coordinate with the Vong. I think it would add some cool new thematic squad-building options but I could also make the supplies once per skirmish to limit just bringing a fringe shooter squad with Vong commanders (but man wouldn't that be cool too! Haha)

This would give the various Outsider characters a boost. The Peace Brigade Soldiers are already quite decent in their 'subfaction', and don't have access to Vong-specific CEs for good reason. But replaces turn limits it enough that it shouldn't be a huge problem.

Umm... Maybe benefitting from 1 isn't bad... But, when you start mixing and matching, it will easily get out of hand. Dunno exactly how "Gamebreaking" it is,but just to note, Villip says in Range of "ALLIES CE" which means not just Vong, but any Fringe ones also. Have you done a run to see if any of those are groundbreaking? Honestly can't think of anything off the top of my head at the moment, but I do have tomorrow off so I can comment more ;)

Let me know if you find any Shmi, same as booming voice they get in Republic/Imperial/Sith so I can't see there being anything new.

The worst one I can think of is Zenac Quah: YV followers gain Evade and +4 attack.(and can't have non YV with him) Still much better than Booming Voice, since it is a one per round effect.

Nothing to do with anything other than I am anti Vong, I am not a fan. Bit, it is complete bias against the faction and what they represent. I'm sure you've seen me rant a time or two about then, lol. For what your going for I get it. But I am against any Fringe becoming YV and subject too any CE by them.

Well I can't help your bias Shmi hahaha sorry man, but if it helps they aren't actually becoming Vong, just able to hear their extra-Galactic allies. And Juice Zenoc can't be in a squad with any non-Vong characters irregardless of them being subject to Vong CEs (not that they could have even gained Villip yet but that wouldn't change anything as per squad-building purposes)

I know, I won't hold my bias against it while judging, because it has nothing to do with your piece what so ever. I am just anti Vong, lol.

As a matter of fact, this is kinda weaker then Mezhan Quaad. You can get two rounds in a row of YV special abilitie use from her. (Go Vong!)

Haha I hear you Shmi, and understand. There's a reason I don't make strafing pieces or anti-reserves pieces, I think those are the absolute worst out there, former for being crazy broken and NPE and the latter for being unneeded and broken haha.

2/24/2018 3:57:57 PM

Thanks Blem. And Juice I did take her into consideration when designing this as well, Mezheen makes someone subject to SAs, so Fett could have Shaper and scarification. This one is specifically for CEs
swinefeld

Well, I've been distracted and mostly haven't done my homework here yet, so I'll just parrot Blem and say "interesting", and it sure seems like it could be, (Villup being the question) as the rest is straightforward. :)
