See Psi Crystals
The Gunslinger. Weaponized cyborg-soldier terrorizing as small Western town.
I'd maybe like a mechanic which could go on common artifact creatures to represent infiltrating/subverting/converting/damaging the colonists.
Maybe just have artifact creatures which affect ranchers, soldiers, rhinos, insects, etc?
Maybe have the "
this costs 1 colourless mana" symbol?
Maybe have colourless spells to represent the lack of coloured magic on the world?
@Alex. Thanks. Yeah, that's what I was circling around. I don't expect it to keep the current combination of abilities, I just slapped on all the relevant ones and plan to work out later what to put in this slot :) @JMG: Yes, exactly. I don't know if I will keyword that for this set, probably not, but I wanted to see how it looked.
So, 'Clockwork' means: (When you attack or block with this creature, remove a +1/+1 counter at end of combat)?
Reminiscent of Clockwork Hydra. Impressively cheap, but it can normally only ping the turn after you drop it, so is probably fine. Also reminiscent of Chronomaton.
I want a few mechanical gunslingers like this. I'm not sure about the clockwork ability: I really want a "put a -1/-1 counter on this: untap it" ability, but I don't think I want a -1/-1 counter block so I need to do the same thing with +1/+1 counters. Ideally this would mostly be about the pinging, but using +1/+1 counters as fodder makes it not bad as an attacker or blocker, so I want some way to counteract that.
@Vitenka: Ooh, yeah, I like that too. Thank you. Not sure about the mechanical implementation, but I think something like that is going in.
Oh yay, thank you. In fact, yes, I hadn't really thought of the enemies being specific gunfighters but now you say it, that's obvious and a lot more interesting source of ideas. Yul Brenner is exactly right.
... wait; that's a real comment? I thought the spambots had gotten cleverer again, but started advertising old movies, for a minute, there :)
Anyhow. Nice flavour. For combining the 'augmented' and 'fake' idea; how about artifact-sand (or some other name) that as long as the plane wasn't disturbed, basically had nothing to do - but now it's got all KINDA of ideas to copy. Mechanically; Lots of morph effects, lots of copying types and abilities. Maybe bring back modular?
Just have equipment/enchants/artifacts that can assist/hinder showdowns???
ooh I like the "fake colonists" idea, kinda reminds me of the briefly seen "Space World" section of the setting for the movie Westworld, absolutely brilliant movie for its time! Screenshot of Yul Brenner cowboy with face dislodged for one of the fakes!!!!!
