Redesigning the AO from base game

By tiborvadovan, in Fan Creations

Hi,

It is well known that the AOs from the base game are some of the more iconic mythos entities, but pale in comparison with AO from later expansions.

I propose that these AO are redesigned to bring them up to date and make them challenging again.

To get things staretd, here is a basic proposal for an Ithaqua redesign. Please comment and leave your own proposals here.

Take care,

I'm kindof amused that you're doing this. I actually just finished my version of this last week (conceptually anyways, I still need to get three pictures and make the final heralds to go with the last few base game AOs. Then I will make a post that puts all of them in one nice little post. Have you seen my other base game heralds?

Here's my Ithaqua herald note:

General abilities

-Crippling Wind: blows all skill sliders to the left at the beginning of each upkeep (outside of stable locations and Other Worlds)

-cultists (Yeti? Wendigo?) have their toughness increased by three (that means Ithaqua's cultists will have a toughness of six) and do 2 damage.

-investigators adjacent to cultists can not use more than one movement point.

Ithaqua abilities

-physical immunity

-Frostbite: if an investigator goes unconscious in the streets, they lose one maximum stamina.

-winds in the street do one stamina and one sanity damage

-Crippling Wind continues during Final Battle

Looking forward to your creations avi_dreader

Here is one more redesign. Let me know what you think.

I *really* like the way you handled this. At first I wasn't so fond of tainted knowledge (but then I realized that it caused a mask to appear each time it was used) If you redo it as a herald, I'll print it out (I don't like reprinting the original components). Also, I think you mean to say location for the +1/endless bonus, not area.

Have you not seen my other stuff? Here is my photobucket account for Arkham Horror.

I just posted a Yig herald. It's in the custom heralds thread.
