Shadowcat - Uncanny X-Men (**)
Purple/Blue/Green

Green: Circuitry Overload - 12AP - Shadowcat infiltrates and destroys the enemies' electronics systems. Turns three random environmental tiles into critical tiles, and gains environmental AP for each.
Lv2: +1 AP, Four tiles
Lv3: +1 AP, Five tiles
Lv4: +1 AP, Six tiles
Lv5: +1 AP, Seven tiles

This is really powerful. It is still reasonable, however. First shadowcat would have to
be 3 or 4 stars. Ap cost would have to be higher, and upgrades not just add
more tiles. Maybe generate double environmental ap?

Maybe. I don't like the upgrades just adding more crits either, but I couldn't think of anything. I didn't think it would be overpowered, because while 3-4 crit tiles is usually good for you, 7 becomes a bit more double-edged since the enemy will get to use at least a couple of them.

The main problem is that when it is not double edge it is instant death
If you have a set of environmental tiles that is able to be put as 5 of a kind
and you use this ability at max you pretty much down that enemy

Rogue (Modern): ***

Essence Drain (8 Purple) : Rogues grabs her target draining 10% of their max hit points and puts a countdown tile on the board, if the tile is not destroyed in 6 turns, the target regains their health, cannot reduce a targets life below 1HP
(2) +1AP, Drains 20% of their max hits points, reduces countdown tile to 5 turns
(3) +1AP, Drains 30% of their max hit points, reduces countdown tile to 4 turns
(4) +1AP, Drains 40% of their max hit points, reduces countdown tile to 3 turns
(5) + 1AP, Drains 50% of their max hit points, reduces countdown tile to 2 turns, Adds one strike tiles to the board (power is 5% of the hp drained)

Power Siphon (12 Black): Rogue Grabs one of the opposing team and siphon's off their power, reducing their AP of their highest colour total by 25%, you gain 10% of the siphoned AP. Rogue gets emotional after doing this and disappears for three turns.

(2) Increases the AP siphon to 50%
(3) Effects two colours but stuns the rest of your team for one turn (they go looking for the sulking Rogue)
(4) Increases AP siphon to 75%,
(5) Increases AP siphon to 100%, your team gains 50% of the siphoned AP

Environmental Defences (15 Blue): Rogues uses her super strength to rearrange the battlefield converting 2 environmental tiles to blue protect tiles.

(2) converts 3 tiles
(3) Increases strength to 40 base
(4) Converts 4 Tiles
(5) Also converts 1 tile to a strength 20 Red Attack tile (rogue uses pieces of the battle field as weapons), increases protect tile strength to 60


Since the two newest characters have downsides to most of their abilities, thought new ideas should mirror that.

They've had a long history with a lot of conflicting alliances. At first they were Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, but eventually found their way onto the Avengers. In that time, Scarlet Witch has also been a member of the West Coast Avengers, Force Works, and the Secret Defenders. Meanwhile, Quicksilver has been a member of the Inhumans, X-Factor, and even the Knights of Wundagore.

But they're best know for the Brotherhood and Avengers.

Also, nice Cyclops, Generator Leon! That was the next character I was going to try, but now I'll put it on the back burner for a while and work on someone else.

True. It's part of what makes him a 3* character, the drawback being the increase in cost and the chance the enemy team gets to shatter it if you don't manage to. Plus since the affected tiles are frozen, you are left with fewer mobile tiles to make a match.

I'd certainly be open to other ideas, though. Perhaps the progression could go 3x3 / 4x3 / 4x4 / 5x5.
Or:
-Level 2: Freezes a 4x4 block of tiles. Costs 1 AP more.
-Level 3: Freeze two separate 3x3 blocks. Costs 1 AP more.
-Level 4: Freezes two separate 4x4 blocks. Costs 2 AP more.
-Level 5: Iceman can move any frozen tiles that bear his symbol. Costs 1 AP more.

I'm not familiar with the Dark Reign story, only what little bits I've read on wikis and whatnot so far (It sounds like I'd enjoy it, so I'll probably end up picking up a collection of some sort eventually).

Anyway, the point is, rather than going for a wishlist of Marvel Characters I want to see, I thought I'd try and guess/theorize on highly likely characters. One that really seems to stand out as currently "missing" from the game is Namor, the Sub-Mariner. I don't really know a whole lot about him, but he seems to have had allegiance with just about every "faction" in the game.

He'd definitely have strength/powers in Blue (water) and Purple (royalty/nobility). He often serves as an anti-hero or antagonist, so I think Black makes for a good fit as his third. Not sure on powers, so I'm throwing it open. His super strength/durability is often written as being dependent on being in or near water, so perhaps a power or powers that scale on number of blue AP owned, number of blue tiles in play, or uses up all blue AP (like Ares' Green).

Bishop

Can have an ability for time travel, maybe moving tiles around or board clearing.

His main one would be absorbing AP when attacked. Something passive like, damage is reduced by % amount and X AP of attack color is given to your team.

Then a powerful attack that requires a decent amount of AP which can be achieved by absorbing from the previous ability.

I'd quite like to see their Toxic Doxie / Dark Avengers Scarlet Witch / Dr June Covington.

While I don't have ranks and such thought through, I'd love her powers to be something like:

Blue: Lethargy: Enemies move slower and strike with less force. Places Protect tiles.
Yellow: Pestilence: Weakens opponents' defenses and resistance. Places Strike tiles.
Purple: Obey Me!: Opponents next (1/less ap/2/less ap/3) colour matches go to your stash instead.

That last power would have a suitably high cost, be unpredictable but potentially very versatile, either for blocking an opponent trying to activate a strong ability or feeding your own.
