OverPower Third Edition, my own custom overhaul of the game.  Everything you need to know is here (https://overpower-3rd.deviantart.com/journal/).  But if you have any questions, I'm more than happy to answer!   :D

2 questions:

1- if Nightcrawler's team is hit with an OC (discard 3 of your choice), can he "choose" to place it to count for 1, or must it be a "forced" discard?  there aren't many cards that can accomplish a force.

2- is X-23 on your radar, or will Laura Kinney just be a version of Wolverine?
Title: Re: OP3: New Specials for Marvel Core Set Characters
Post by: OP3 on November 21, 2017, 01:49:06 AM
1 - I would say that if you only have three or less cards in your hand, and your opponent plays an OC, yes you could place it.  Otherwise you only could if you're forced to discard it randomly, or forced to discard all cards, or cards of a certain type or icon.  Stuff like IL (https://overpower-3rd.deviantart.com/art/Magneto-Special-Electromagnetic-Pulse-446543445), EM (https://overpower-3rd.deviantart.com/art/Black-Cat-Special-Cat-Burglar-503569025), EG (https://overpower-3rd.deviantart.com/art/Metallo-Special-Kryptonite-Powered-588231633), BY (https://www.overpower.ca/cards/specials/109.png), etc.  There will be more in future sets too.

2 - I'm planning to do Laura up as X-23 with her own array of Specials, and also a version of her as Wolverine.  Some of her cards will be playable in either identity (small i), some only as X-23, some only as Wolverine (some of which will also be playable by Logan), like so many other characters with multiple codenames.  She's not in my current Marvel set, but after the next DC set I'm planning a smaller dedicated X-Men set.

I have that Lego Doc Ock.  A couple actually.  True, his look has pretty much always been terrible.  Marvel tried to give him a makeover a couple times (remember that awful greased back hair and trenchcoat look?) but that's never really worked out.  I must admit I really like his new HYDRA outfit (https://i1.wp.com/www.comicsuniverse.it/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/ASM2015029cov.jpg) though.
Title: Re: OP3: New Specials for Marvel Core Set Characters
Post by: fennshysa on November 25, 2017, 09:17:44 AM
I don't know, they Hydra outfit looks kind of generic. Anything is better than the bowl cut with the white lab coat though!

I have been trying to avoid looking too closely at your stuff, not wanting to copy things. But, looking at these, I might copy your solutions for fixing the AC codes to a few that i previously changed. I also like that opd CQ much more likely to be useful.

Post by: justa on November 25, 2017, 12:11:05 PM
and yet both of you came up with the same Panic Attack version for Venom.  (to me, it just emphasizes the value and appropriateness of the card mechanic.)  i personally scour other people's homemades for good ideas that would be appropriate for the character(s) i'm working on.  i find (for me) that it helps provide a more thematic representation, and prevents duplicating the work of others.  we all use our own methods for card creating, and that's a good thing.

It just seemed an appropriate mechanic for the card. Guess I was right!  ;)

man Uthanak, ya justa gotta learn to relax sometime.  OP3's still has 10 more specials to dish out for 1st set of characters before he goes back to 2nd set characters.

sit back & enjoy the ride, don't just focus on 1 destination.  he's already surprised me on several of the places he's gone, he seems a good driver, and he's already kept going longer than i thought he would.

Permafrost and Air Superiority are interesting. In fact, you've given me some fresh ideas with that Warren Worthington card.

Your Psychic Shield is more appropriate than the IQ version. I like it.

OP3, how does your set interact with the regular sets? So I guess I'm asking if they can be played mixed together or not.

Comments on my gallery (https://overpower-3rd.deviantart.com/gallery/).  So there's the last five.  More new characters are up next, though maybe not Winter Soldier just yet.  Still have to do up his cards in Photoshop.  Zero, if you're interested in how OP3 works with the Legacy cards, definitely check out my journal entries I linked to earlier, especially the banned list and additional rules (https://overpower-3rd.deviantart.com/journal/Banned-List-and-Additional-Rules-624509163).  You should also check out the full Power Balance (http://www.oppowerbalance.net/) optional rules, as I've incorporated a lot of those into OP3 as well.

For the most part, everything meshes perfectly well together.  The trickiness comes when you're talking about Tactic and Universe cards.  Since I've recategorized some (Teamworks are Tactics now, Artifacts are Universe) and eliminated others (Basic and Training), Legacy cards I haven't gotten around to revising that specifically mention those cards might be confusing now.  But until I've revised and updated all of those cards, consider the choice up to the player of the card, whether they refer to Tactic or Universe, when the card is played.  If they refer to a specific type of Tactic or Universe card, those stay the same.  I may get around to doing up some sort of comprehensive list of which Legacy cards are yet to be revised (I have all kinds of Excel spreadsheets and whatnot that I work from behind the scenes), but the goal is to eventually update and streamline the whole game, so you might just have to wait for me to get around to certain cards to see how they work now.  Hmmm... a list of which Specials I'm not planning to revise might be a good idea to post.
