trying different wording. was: If you were dealt damage since your last turn, this creature ETBs with a +1/+1 counter on it.
The discussion over at http://www.reddit.com/r/colorpie/comments/2m29vo/what_does_green_look_like_in_an_urban_setting/ has provided some useful thoughts for this topic too.
This was submitted for the Goblin Artisans design challenge for the Britannian Faction. This is TooManyPossums's Enlist.
I've been wondering which out of Britannia and the Black Knights should have the "swarm of creatures" feeling. (If either of them. It feels somewhat odd that a creature in a mecha would be able to be stopped by even a large team of unaided humans, which is a minor point against either side having a token swarm feeling with the current implementation of mecha.)
Anyway, this proposed mechanic obviously suggests that Britannia would be the token army faction, and brings a nice flavour for it too.
This mechanic could work on anything from Attended Knight to Growing Ranks and "Sacrifice a creature. Enlist X, where X was that creature's power. (Put X 1/1 tokens...)" - Rousing Funeral, perhaps?
The Goblin Artisans design challenge brought in many new ideas. Amongst those I most like are Incursion Force, Harsh Taskmaster, Elite Squadman, Devoted Soldiers, Britannian Occupiers, Britannian Beachstormers, Regiment Initiate and Reeducate the Rebels.
This ability isn't great because it allows you to cast Equipment mid-combat... at which point the Equipment lands on the battlefield unattached and doesn't do anything. Trying to find a phrasing that allows you to use the equip ability without a million words is remarkably hard, though. I don't want her to just bypass mana costs entirely like Stoneforge Mystic.
Another flavour blue can have is the logistics / operational staff that both sides have.
I think this is actually pretty good card selection, so I've given it a deliberately unimpressive body.
"Put the rest back in any order" templating similar to Dimir Machinations.
Not sure what class type to give the scientists from the Geass Institute. In MtG "researcher" normally means "wizard", but in this set I'm reserving "Wizard" for people with actual supernatural power.
Like Inventive Technician this is repeatable card advantage, but only in a very dedicated deck.
A tweak on Faerie Mechanist. Repeatable card advantage at common is a red flag, but this will only actually be card advantage if your deck is stuffed with artifacts, and the set doesn't have artifact creatures so that's putting the consistency of your deck at quite a risk.
A functional reprint of Vedalken Engineer. Useful to either cast or equip Knightmares (which are coloured artifacts).
With the two successful design challenges providing a bunch of ideas for Britannian W/B mechanics and Black Knight R(/g) mechanics, and green looking like it'll represent the Japanese and Chinese traditionalists, blue is the colour in the set that's still looking for a role. My current thinking is:
