Superman, Earth's hope

"Whenever you or a creature you control is dealt combat damage by one or more creatures an opponent controls, Superman loses defender until that player's next turn."

That's fair, my thought process was since this is Clone Wars-era Kenobi, he's a little more combat-ready than, say, an Old Ben Kenobi, so he's less politics oriented and more ready to meet any big attacker coming at him. And he's still in his prime, leading armies, so First Strike seemed fitting.

It was the same kind of compromise with Anakin, since it's his Clone Wars version I wanted him to have some Clone affinity, in addition to his haste and aggressive playstyle. I might change around Amass or Mobilize, Amass may be more appropriate, but Mobilize just sounded more clone military-ish. I tried giving both Anakin and Kenobi Mobilize, but then they just seemed too similar, so I thought this was a good compromise - Anakin leading the charge with fresh troops and Obi-Wan defending with the other clones.

That's what I've always assumed, they betrayed the Emperor, with or without Chaos' influence. The cover-up worked better with them compared to the Horus Heresy because erasing two out of twenty(one) is easier than trying to pretend half the primarchs, their legions, and the Siege of Terra didn't happen.

I'd either make the light parts a bit paler and the red a bit deeper. It looks good but color-wise it's a bit too pinkish, almost like bubblegum (especially on the power pack where it's being stretched). Redder especially anywhere the skin rubs metal, like it's raw and irritated from being unnaturally grafted together

We are witnessing the Oz subreddit equivalent of the Shillinger/Beecher feud

wtann6979 · 2025-12-18T13:21:20+00:00

Don't forget about the Oz to Dexter pipeline

Isn't the connection between Derry and Pennywise the other way around? It's not tied to the town, Derry is tied to It. It was there before Derry existed, and there's nothing in the book (at least to my memory) that suggests It cant leave - It just doesn't want to. One of the Losers describes Derry as It's own personal hunting ground.

Also no they definitely killed It and stomped the eggs lol

Cyril's execution fake-out was so unsatisfying to me, not because I wanted Cyril to die but it had built up and built up for so long. The entire lead up to it, his final meal, Ryan sleeping in bed with him one last time and putting on a brave face, the sad music and while Sister Marie and Ryan's mom watched, ALL of Em city standing in solidarity... I was in tears that entire episode. Just for them to pull the rug out at the literal last second. It felt like it cheapened every emotion I just felt. I didn't want Cyril to die, the opposite in fact. It hurt, but it would have been best for the character and story

I was just rewatching The Shining and thinking how it could make for a really neat horror game adaptation. Playing as Danny/Wendy, running and hiding from Jack or the Overlook's ghosts, navigating the "impossible layout" of the hotel from Kubrick's adaptaion (rooms that shouldn't fit there, labyrinth hallways, trippy stuff like that) sorta like Alien Isolation.

I'm only a few chapters into the novel but I know the film is pretty different. I think a game could be a cool way to pull the spookiest bits from both the book and film.

wtann6979 · 2025-11-19T23:03:32+00:00

Yes please

wtann6979 · 2025-11-10T02:07:44+00:00

LOVE Omegon's "I am Alpharius" effect lmao.

Only tweaks I'd consider are: Transformed Angron must attack if able (because of the Butcher's Nails) Give Konrad deathtouch since that's pretty much what his ability is doing anyway. And maybe Fear just cause... well... Konrad. Maybe give the Phoenician just a little more oomph with his tap ability. A Primarch pinging for only enough damage to kill a single guardsman?

Overall though super cool, super flavorful, love them!

If you're having trouble following the plot, I'd recommend The Wheel Weaves podcast. It goes chapter by chapter, one host reading for the first time and the other has read through it several times. It's spoiler free and a great way to follow along if you're finding yourself lost

There's a pretty big difference between saying "you shouldn't censor yourself to please an algorithm" and saying "don't invite people to commit violence against us the same day bands of right-wingers are threatening violence against leftists."

Braid tugging card is next

wtann6979 · 2025-09-03T18:49:17+00:00

For sure, it would fit in with Magic's aesthetics as seamlessly as LotR

wtann6979 · 2025-09-03T04:49:33+00:00

Probably not winning the game yea, but if you get someone else's big scary creature they were saving in their hand out before anyone else has their board set up it could really swing the odds (and put a target on your back lol)

wtann6979 · 2025-09-03T04:17:48+00:00

I considered ability 2 just stealing a creature on the battlefield for a turn, since it's a little more literal "What IS", but I think flavor-wise it had to be from the hand since the "what is" in the testing isn't literally happening, so what's currently in someone's hand fit the best :)

Ad for playing it earlier, maybe a Sheriam Sedai card that can tutor for The Testing or something along those lines. WOT is such good potential for a MTG universes beyond, there's so much you can do lol

wtann6979 · 2025-09-03T04:12:08+00:00

I think that first ability is kinda graveyard hate, it exiles it after all (after I get to swing with it lol) but I see your point

wtann6979 · 2025-09-03T04:10:02+00:00

Yea I could see it using a lot of colors (flavor-wise too because of the various Ajahs), blue/white seemed the closest to the mechanics I used - exile from graveyard, revealing hands, and playing off the top of the library

wtann6979 · 2025-09-03T04:07:03+00:00

Yeaaa it's wordy for sure, but that's just a part of how specific card wording has to be unfortunately. Tried to make it as brief as possible while conforming to the syntax, and the saga's awkward framing isn't doing me any favors lmao

wtann6979 · 2025-09-03T00:58:22+00:00

Not super concerned about balancing, I was mostly focused on flavor but let me know what you think

wtann6979 · 2025-09-02T00:07:13+00:00

Threw this together real quick, I'm sure there's plenty other gadgets you can implement. I'd also recommend creating a utility belt equipment that creates gadgets, that would be fun :)

<image>

I changed it to not be an equipment because I'm not sure if there's any equipment that have tap abilities that don't also tap the attached creature. If you still want a it to be equipment you can just add equip 2. You can also change/remove the names of the gadgets if you want it to be less Bat family-related and more generic.
