Ed's Notes: Wow, so, couple things...
1) How the FUCK was this guy, able to take on Aquaman, Batman, Cyborg, Flash and Wonder Woman basically single-handedly? Yeah, I know he had the parademons with him, or whatever, but REALLY?! Superman needed to bail out those 5 against this guy?!
2) Why is the Axe capitalized? Even if the cable prevents complete take-away, it seems that knocking it out of his hand would still be an option? And if the cable is 20' long, can it REALLY prevent takeway? Is the Lightning ranged, or Touch Only? It doesn't say that, but then why would the 1 AP cable be a drawback? Seems more like a bonus if it can extend the range of the melee weapon's EV? Weird.
3) Same for the Snare's Energy Blast: Is it Touch Only? Do you have to BE ensnared?
4) What about his Armor? Does he invade planets in just... clothes?
Anyway, going to stop on this one for now, in honor of the recent Justice League Movie, even if it did underperform. Lol
Ed - Absolutely. I was wondering the same thing. I have to look at movies and comics as else-worlds. Its one of the reasons I can't read comics anymore. reasons/blah blah blah/so the movies/story can happen. I would really prefer writers use game stats so that the verisimilitude can maintained. I know writers want the freedom to tell the stories they wish to tell, but if there is no agreed basis of what that reality is, then the characters they use only have those names, maybe the costumes, but who they are doesn't matter
ReplyDeleteIf you merge Kaliback with Steppenwolf, you'll start to approach what the movie was attempting... I think.
