New Card Idea--Devourer Queen https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=3118.msg26680#msg26680

This card was inspired as a spin off of Scyther's Synergy series.

This card is called Devourer Queen and is meant to work with the Devourer card.

This card costs 6 :darkness and has attack equal to 1+N/2 and health equal to 3+N where N is equal to the number of devourers in play.

When upgraded the card cost would stay the same and Devourer Queen would gain the ability Hive Mind which would allow you to decide which type of quanta your Devourers consume.

Please let me know what you think and if anyone could do the art I would appreciate it.

Ok as promised the artwork. I went with Pest QUeen for the normal version as the normal of Devourer is Pest.

Pest Queen/Devourer Queen


I hope I got this right for you.

Nice card would be of great use and possibly hard to remeber the change sometimes.
ie. If you forgot to change the Quanta you steal and the opponent has none do you miss out or does it automatically choose something else?

Thanks for everything.

I was thinking that it would be like most abilities but with a target on the quanta rather than a card on the field, however, you are right it would be nice to not have to change it each turn so I would say that if the opponent has no quanta of the type you selected it reverts to the normal random steal.

Thanks for the art. Its great.

Yeah no problem. i was looking for a suped up Devourer and found that one so we can use it for now but if it makes it into the game I'll have to renegotiate with the artist.

Thanks for everything and keep up the good ideas.

Glad ot here it converts to a random Quanta. Maybe the action of choosing only works for 1 turn (or 2 whichever) then it automatically reverts, thus making you more aware of it.

THanks

Card idea is pretty good, but a sidenote: Upped devourer is pest, unupped is just devourer
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.

How would hive mind work? so far there isn't a interface designed to target the quantum pool of other players

I realize the interface would need to be created, however, I don't think that the coding for that would be too hard most of the parts are in place.
