Defense Tower/Fortification (need card art!) https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=3098.msg26401#msg26401

Hello all!

First of all, my artistic skills are fail so if someone would be kind enough to make a card art for this I'd appreciate it greatly!

Here is the idea:

Defense Tower /Upgraded: Fortification (permanent)
Cost: 5 :earth / 5  :earth

Edit: here is the rewrite which makes is simpler (without changing what it actually does)

---------------

Ability:
Upload - Cost: 2 (random) / nothing - if target friendly creature is not loaded it gains "loaded" status.
Unload - Cost: nothing /nothing - if target friendly creature is already loaded it looses "loaded" status.

Loaded status:
When a creature is loaded, it's defense is doubled, and it no longer attacks. When he gets unloaded it's defense is no longer doubled. A loaded creature is capable of intercepts:  when you opponent's creatures attack, the uploaded creature has 50% chance of intercepting one of the attacking creatures (at random) and dealing the uploaded creature's damage to the intercepted creature and stopping its attack. There is also a 30% chance that the intercepted creature deals it's attack damage to the uploaded creature.

Immortal/momentumed attacking creatures are unaffected.

-------------

Here is original description:

Ability:
Upload - Cost: 2 (random) / nothing- target creature is uploaded to the defense tower, it can no longer attack but it's defense is doubled. Only one creature can be uploaded to one tower.
Unload - Cost: nothing /nothing - target creature is unloaded from the defense tower, it can now attack and it's defense is no longer doubled (but rounded up, so if uploaded it has 3 defense, unloaded it will have 2). Cannot upload another creature on the same turn.
Intercept - Cost: nothing - when you opponent's creatures attack, the uploaded creature has 50% chance of intercepting one of the attacking creatures (at random) and dealing the uploaded creature's damage to the intercepted creature and stopping its attack. There is also a 30% chance that the intercepted creature deals it's attack damage to the uploaded creature.


You can play multiple cards (which would need multiple towers/fortifications). The creatures will no longer attack but they will have 50% chance to intercept. 30% of those intercepted (which is total of 15% chance) will also deal damage to the uploaded creatures possibly killing it. One uploaded creature can intercept only one attacking creature and the chance of intercepting a creature is 50% (so you have 50% chance of intercepting if there are 10 attacking creatures just as you have 50% chance of intercepting if there is 1 creature).

Please comment!
Thank you!

I think that it's too complex for a single card...

Too much different skills, I don't think that zanz can implement it easyly.

well, essentially there is only one skill + a status

essentially you click on the fortification to give the creature "loaded" status.
If you click on fortification and the press on creature who is already loaded he gets unloaded.

If the creature is loaded he can do intercepts!

This is interesting kind of like plate armor(Heavy armor) + 50% chance of grav pull. The question I have is what happens when when you unload assuming the creature has taken damage? Does it lose half of its def lose the amount that was added or go to full health?

His def is halfed (rounded up) from when he was loaded...

It's not quite like grav pull.. essentially this creature doesn't attack but it has a 50% chance of attacking and stopping one of enemy creatures (possibly killing it)... It also has a 15% chance of getting attacked by a random enemy unit (again, 50% of intercept, once intercepted 30% of not only attacking the intercepted unit, but also getting attacked back by it)..

So each loaded creature has 50% chance of blocking one of the attacking creatures, possibly killing the attacking creature, and possibly dying in process :P
