Title: Unprepared (another Curse, lol)
Post by: browarod on May 05, 2011, 02:21:28 PM

Had an idea from Pol's suggestion in the "what needs to be reprinted" thread. Not really sure what brigade to give it, though.

Unprepared
[Gray? Curse | 3/3 | Luke 12:45-46]
Negate First Strike abilities. Each upkeep, you may choose one evil and one good fortress in play or set aside. Those fortresses and all sites are negated during that upkeep phase.

I like it, but I would make it Gold

Hmm, why gold? I'm not opposed, just wondering your reasoning.

I enjoy how "Unprepared" gets rid of "First Strike". That doesn't even make sense.

If you're not prepared, you won't be ready to go first.

I think someone would have had first strike against the five virgins since they didn't pay attention (assuming thats the passage mentioned).

You want to grant unprepared people first strike?

Where exactly did you pull that idea from? I said someone. Not the virgins.

Pol mentioned that an artifact negating first strike would be nice (I think in relation to making Judges stronger? I don't remember), so here was my idea, lol.

I think the name makes perfect sense. If you're unprepared, you're not ready for the attack.

The reason why I was thinking of it being Gold was because the Egyptians were Unprepared so I was thinking it would be for them.
Just my thought.

If you are not ready for the attack, it seems like your opposition would have first strike on you.

Well, it was either "All characters gain First Strike" or this, so I think I like this better, lol.
