Omni-Duel: Multi Universal Trading Card Game (Interest Check/Sign Up)

CHESUTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• Duelist Name: Yuri Cosmo

• Age: 13

• Appearance: A young, brown haired youth boy with chocolate brown eyes and a healthy tan. Dresses in light furs over a t-shirt and shorts.

• Personality: Yuri is, in a nutshell, extremely hyperactive and chipper, always looking on the brightside of life. In addition, Yuri is completely obsessed with space and anything having to do with space, as evidenced by his deck, clothes, and other such things. As a high note, Yuri's mother was obsessed with him knowing his manners and as such he is very polite to others. As a low note, Yuri has NO social skills.

• Deck: X-COM Themed, because SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE~

Character Cards-

• Henry Gustav: The Psionic Assault: Uses Shotgun and Mind Bullets as standard attacks.
• Amala Zonvolt: Support Colonel: Uses Assault Rifle as standard attack
• Franz Fitzgerald: The Sniper: Uses Sniper Rifle and Pistol as standard attacks.

Action Cards-

Mindfray (Henry): Sends forth a stream of psionic fuckery to mess with the opponent's mind. Damage is guaranteed and if a high roll (6) is acheived it removes an upgrade or action card from the target. Can only be used once before it goes back to the deck.

Revival! (Amala): Amala revives one allied character card.

Headshot! (Franz): Franz attempts to put a bullet between his target's eyes. Hits if a 4 or 5 is rolled, and if a six is rolled, it destroys the target.

Disarming Shot! (Franz): Franz takes careful aim and fires at the target's weapon/other non-vital area. The Disarming Attack is a success if the dice roll is 1 or 2, removing an equipped action or an upgrade and dealing no damage. The removed action or upgrade is placed back in the deck. If the dice roll is higher than a 1 or 2, very little damage is dealt and the disarming effect is not activated.

Telekinetic Field (Henry): Henry creates a field around himself and his allies, making it difficult for him and his allies to be hit. The field lasts two turns before it disappears.

Stimulant Packs (Amala): Amala shoots up herself or an ally with chemcs, increasing their attack power and other statistics for three turns. Can be used twice per duel at MOST.

Psi Inspiration (Henry): Henry lets out a battle cry and unleashes a wave of psychic energy that bolsters his allies abilities for one turn.

• Upgrades

Ghost Armor (Franz): Experimental Armor created by X-COM that enhances defensive abilities and gives the user the ability to turn invisible for a turn. The invisibility wears off when Franz either attacks or upon the start of his next turn. Alternatively, Franz can use his arm mounted grapple gun to ascend to higher places for a terrain advantage. Grapple gun is ineffective against enemies.

• Environment

No-Man's Land: An open battlefield, scarred by plasma burns and explosions. All Soldier type characters receive an advantage of some kind. Lots of cover.

Hyper Wave Relay: A facility deep in the bowels of the Subterranean X-COM base, Psionic abilities receive a MASSIVE boost here. Flying abilities are severely limited due to the low ceiling. Little to no cover. There is a large amount of water in the room.

• Bio: Ever since he was young, er, youngER, Yuri has held a fascination with both the military and anything even remotely related to space, wanting to one day go into space himself like his father before him. As he grew older, he developed a new interest, one for Omni-Duels. His mind split between wanting to be a pioneer in space and being a master duelist...until one day his mother broached the suggestion that he do both. His mind set on his goal and eyes filled with determination, Yuri strives to fulfill his new combined dream...

I'm preeety sure we aren't using dice rolls of any kind.

EDIT: My mistake, Scorpio said he'd use a dice roll at the start of every duel to determine who goes first.

... But that's it.

You are reading this.

I DID see a few on Scorpio's character sheet.

"I am nature's weapon. You are unfit to carry on your species, and I shall ensure that you do not do so!" - Charles Darwin, XCOM Sniper

Huh, so there is.

... Now I'm confused, because that doesn't fit with the rest of how Scorpio described combat going.

You are reading this.

To be fair, both MTG and Yu Gi Oh alongside a few other Card Games had a few cards whose effects used dice rolls.

I could see it for characters and such that are specifically themed around it and such.

... You know, I notice the mention of dice only comes up with Guillmon's stuff, and not at all with the others on Scorpio's sheet. That probably has something to do with it.

You are reading this.

Considering that a large majority of X-COM's battle gameplay focuses on probability and percentages, having dice used for the deck does not seem like that much of a stretch.

Up to Scorpio though.

The only real problem I have is the age. Boost it to at least thirteen and It's approved.

The dice rolls are okay, but the opponent will have to wait until I roll the random effect to react. Guillmon's rolls are to determine burns, so it's chance based as well. Since your whole deck is chance based, it's balanced in a way.

AH FEEXED EET.

-cough-

Alright, thanks!

Hmm, alright then.

The only part that sticks out to me as maybe unbalanced is the headshot's 1 out of 6 chance of insta-killing.

You are reading this.

I'm going to say that the headshot has to actually hit in order to kill, like Voldemort's Avada Kedavra spell. Maybe it should just have bad aim. How about this? Roll a 4 or higher to hit, and then roll a 6 to kill. Other than that, Accepted.

I was actually thinking about going in and changing it to just deal 3x the damage on a success. But your idea works better for me. :D
