If you could create a card(s), what would it be?

By Rogue Cypher, in 1. AGoT General Discussion

So the thought came to me today after looking over the other "Top 5" topic. But this time, I thought maybe people could toss out some ideas about what cards they would want to see, while detailing what the "printed" card would have on it. Like making up a dream card of sorts.

Personally, I think a cool idea would be to start implementing cards based on the whole "Others" concept. Such as...

Name of Card: Touch of an Other

Rules Text: RESPONSE: After a character is killed and sent to the deadpile, return that character to play under your control. The character loses all printed text, STR and icons and instead is replaced with a military and intrigue icon, 2 STR and the Others trait.

Image: The Other who was strangling Samwell before the White Walkers ambushed he and Gilly.

So, anybody else got any "dream cards" they think would be fun to see?

Nomad of the Desert

3 gold; 3 STR Ally. Intrigue; Power. Response: After a Targ character or Location comes into play, choose and kneel an opponent's character.

~Wait, that'd be pretty broken...Let me try again.

Targ Event

Response: If you would lose a challenge, cancel the challenge. Nobody wins.

Wait, isn't that a pretty big blow to a fundamental mechanic of the game?...I give up.

Edit:

Ugh, I guess I better contribute something productive (rather than just trolling, apologies):

Targ unique

1 gold, 3 STR. Refugee. Military/Intrigue.

Ambush. House Targaryen Only.

Refugees are -1 STR.

i would make a card for Raego... not sure what it would do, but i think it should be an attachment. demonio.gif

I want five of them.

This was my dream card to print... naturally "bounced back" to the sender :-)

*Harren The Black
Cost 5
STR 3
Ironborn, Lord, King
Mil, Pow
Renown, Intimidate

While Harren The Black is standing, your unique Greyjoy location are immune to non-Dragon cards.
Marshalling: discard one power from Harren The Black to choose and kill a character of STR 2 or lower (STR 3 if you control Harrenhal)
Limit one per round.

*Harrenhal
Cost 3
Neutral
After Harrenhal comes into play, choose a House: Harrenhal gains that affiliation.
Challenges: kneel Harrenhal and 3 influence to choose and kill a non-dragon char of STR 3 or lower (STR 4 if you control a King char)

I have been pondering a card like this for the mountain since he is still missing a card.

Ser Gregor Clegane 4

4, M, Deadly

when Ser Gregor Clegane is targeted by a character abilitycharacters keyword, kill that character at the end of the phase.

The rules text is probably way off, but I'm thinking that he should be able to kill a character that targets him with a character ability (friendfoe sounds nedly) or with a keyword like stealth (since clearly knight of the flowers used stealth against him at the hands tournament ;) ).

Argh, Ire - you just beat me to it with a Gregor card! here's mine anyway....

(Lannister) *Ser Gregor Clegane

4 gold

Knight, House Clegane

STR 5

Mil, Pow

Infamy, Deadly

While Ser Gregor Clegane is participating in a challenge, all opponents' characters lose the Deadly keyword

Alleras

(unique character, neutral)

Cost 3

Strength 2

Intrigue, Power

Vengeful. Stealth.

If you control Sarella Sand, discard Alleras from play.

Limited Response: After Alleras stands, choose one of the following: Give Alleras 'Deadly' until the end of the phase or draw a card. (Limit 1 limited response per round). Learned crest.

Mikken

(unique character, Stark)

Cost 2

Strength 1

Military.

After you play Mikken from your Hand, search your deck for X weapons attachments and put them into your hand, then shuffle your deck. X is the number of unique Stark characters you control.

I definetevely love Mikken :-)

Jaime Lannister, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard

NEUTRAL House

Knight, Lord, One-Handed Bandit, Kingsguard (Ok, maybe one of these traits isn't necessary)

Renown

Intrigue, Power Icons

4 Cost, 3 Str, Noble Crest

As for the ability, I'm not sure, but maybe:

Response: When an opponents character uses a character ability that targets the opponent's own character, kneel Jaime to cancel that ability.

How about - "Kneel Ser Ilyn Payne to give Jaime Lannister a MIL icon until the end of the phase" - a hugely circumstantial ability!

partido_risa.gif That was entertaining!

~Mine would be a Brotherhood card w/ an Interrogation/Confession sort of ability... lengua.gif

I actually created several cards from ideas I had (from my other thread). I'll share one here:

Howland Reed 3 cost, 3 strength, Power & Mil icons, Stealth Unique, House Stark only

Immune to opponent character abilities & events.

While Howland is standing, Stark nobles cannot be killed.

Could also use: Response: Kneel Howland to save a Stark noble from being killed. (in place of the passive ability)

The Red Door (unique)
3 Gold; King's Landing
House Targaryen only
Any Phase: Kneel The Red Door to give any character -1 STR until the end of the phase.
Response: After a character's STR is reduced to 0, kneel 1 influence to stand The Red Door.

Ours Is the Fury

Baratheon Event

Challenges: Kneel 3 influence: Until end of phase. If a character would claim a power, instead claim 1 power for your house.

We Do Not Sow

Greyjoy Event

Any Phase: Kneel a warship to take control of a location. At the end of the phase discard it from play (cannot be saved). Then Draw 1 Card.

FireBlood

Targaryen Event

Any Phase: All characters in play with 0 strength are discarded from play (cannot be saved). Then Draw 1 card.

Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken

Martell Event

Any Phase: Until the end of phase opponent's cannot claim power for unopposed challenges.

I don't know if Hear Me Roar is in current use .

Actually, come to think of it, the Red Door isn't in King's Landing is it? It's in Braavos...

Core Set plot card...

I've always wanted a Mad King Aerys. Something like this:

House Targ only.

STR 2, Power, Cost 2

At the end of each turn, each player may choose and kill one of his opponent's characters. Your opponent chooses first.

Let the madness begin!
