Custom Card League: VOTE on custom upgrades now!

By Babaganoosh, in X-Wing

Welcome to the vote for custom upgrades to introduce into the custom card league's vassal extension!


The top twenty upgrades from this vote will be implemented in the vassal extension, after a second-round vote in which modified versions of the twenty upgrades will be accepted as submissions and subsequently voted on.


Text-only submissions, if they advance to the next round of voting, will have cards made for them by myself if necessary.


You are of course free to make your vote in whatever way you please, but I suggest you vote based on these criteria, in the following order:


1: Flavor- does the upgrade add something new to the X-wing miniatures game, in terms of the star wars universe and game mechanics?


2: In-game balance: Does the upgrade seem balanced? Keep in mind that there will be an opportunity to modify the entries that advance to the next round of voting.



Each upgrade submission includes any design notes provided (sometimes informally). I sometimes include information I think is necessary to understand the submission, but this is relatively rare.


I'm splitting up the upgrades into three sections, because there are about 250 entries, and you unfortunately can't pause and save halfway through the process for each section.


Enjoy and tell your friends about the vote and the league! The more votes we get, the better. Voting ends midnight (11:59pm EST) June 16.


-BG





Also vote in the custom pilot poll, which is running in parallel!

I know; this round has a total of over 300 cards to vote on. I really didn't anticipate getting so many!

i havent had a chance to go through them all, but you wouldnt happen to know if my "Shake" and "Bake" EPT happens to be in there (i know i hadn't remembered to make a card for it yet.

it's below in case it isnt :-/

"Unique (both sides) EPT 3 Points Small base only

Shake - Action: You may perform a Free Barrel Roll Action, if the ship does not have the barrel roll action get 1 stress. Remove one Target lock from this ship. When this action is used, flip this card.

Bake - Action: You may perform a Free Boost Action, if this ship does not have the boost action receive 1 stress. After Performing the boost, if there is a ship in arc at range 1 you may acquire a free target lock on that ship. When this action is used, Flip this card."

Did you double check what I helped you with? I'm going in to the voting and I think I may have doubled up more than I thought... *facepalm*

It's telling me I've already voted on part 2 and 3. Anyone else getting the error?

Are the voting links screwed up? All 3 look to be the same url (and tell me I've already voted if I try to visit any of them)

Maybe Babaganoosh saw my post about duplicates and he is straightening out the other parts lol...

It's crazy how quickly the voters create separation.

3 voters in and there are already a good diversity of opinions. Only cards agreed on so far are Tie/Sa, Expanded Magazines, Torpedo Loadout, Automatic Sealup, Jabba the Hutt, Moment of Clarity, R4-A14, R5-M12, and Black Market Engineer.

If you think voting was tough, try setting up a voting form with 250 entries! Thank god I had some help along the way, or this would have taken probably a week of my free time.

This is also making me think that I'll need to limit submissions per person next time around, unfortunately.

Have you looked at what kdubb and I mentioned above (trying to go to Part 2 or Part 3 give the "You've already responded" page, and all 3 links hae the same url)

I opened all 3 links before completing any of them, and the title on each is the same: Custom card League: Upgrades, Round 1, Part 1

Unable to vote on part 2 or part 3?

Congrats to everybody who worked on the proposals.

Many are very interesting and hopefully someone will notice some ideas and implement them.

As a side note...

I have to say that my dual system upgrade disruption/jamming/etc packs were designed for cheap, non-combat TIE Vanguard (with attack 1 and -2 point reduction on system upgrades) so right now they seem almost useless.

Still thanks if you've appreciated the effort to design a disruption/electronic warfare ship.

If an upgrade gets voted in that ends up not having the requisite pilot to go on, what happens? I'm assuming it just gets DQed and the next highest one goes in it's place. (Looking at the Imperial Only Z95 title, which only works if imp mara jade pilot gets voted in)

I definitely appreciated the effort!

I think we could try to adjust those cards to be game-legal if they get through the voting process, but let's see if it ends up being an issue.

Parts 2 and 3 weren't working for me earlier - looking forward to voting on the rest sometime soon!

The links are fixed

Just finished!

Though it looks like all of the upgrades that I submitted alongside my V-Wing got missed from the polls. I may be wrong, that was a marathon.
