Swarm of Birds and Tactics Should have the same artist.

Tactician also needs art.

what´s the cost? 8|7?

[OldTrees]

Graviton Leuitenant costs 5|4

  Paralyzed, cannot use abilities, may miss on attacks

  High in the Sky, non airborne creature can't do anything and take 2 damage when effect wears off (hard landing)
Probably best as a chance based AoE spell "Roc Hunting" or a skill with drawbacks. [S,C]
  Corruption, Strength increases, but HP begins to decrease
single target spell like Liquid Shadow or skill like Nymph [S,C]
Shame, creature loses X attack.
single target spell (S)
   Muscle Poison, Creature loses X attack for X turns
Repeatable skill or activated ability [C,P]
  Shaken, max health is decreased by X.

  Confusion, attacks random targets.
Powerful enough that is should be a single target Spell (S)
  Burn, takes one damage for each attack
This is like infect so I think Skill or Permanent [C,P]
   Recoil, creature's attack damages you as well.

  Tiring, creature occasionaly delays.

   .... I suppose light would have the counter card to this series, perhaps "Holy Regeneration"

  Paradoxing, the creature shifts around the playing area randomly unless sent back to the owner's deck.

  Freeze Curse, attacks might cause this creature to freeze.

I came up with 2 images I will put them in my image thread.

Do you have an idea what tactics art should look like? Battle plans?
I think the tactician should look like and old being looking at battle plans.
I think I came up with something for wedge formation.

I am not set on any image of what Tactics should look like. I leave that to the artists. It may turn out as battle plans, an image of an ambush, ...

An elderly tactician pursuing over battle plans would fit.

That would work well for Wedge formation

Note: Wedge Series has been put on hold until a 6th use of wedge is discovered

I think we could stretch the concept and use Piranha (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha)

It would need to be a mechanically new use. How would Piranha use the wedge formation mechanic in a new way?

[EmeraldTiger]

We will set the Piranha idea aside, but if we had an idea for a fish that when it attacks in groups it naturally assumes this formation.

The Piranha needs have an ability  Nibble: Do 1 damage to target creature, it target dies Piranha gains +1|+1. OR Piranha gains +1|+1 for each successful attack.

I need to save these links so i will put them here.

Unfortunately Wedge Formation is an active skill and creatures can only have 0 or 1 active skill.

how does this sound?
Dartfin | Swordfin 0: Wedge Formation: Gains (+n|+0 n = number of creatures in the formation) or (+2|+0 when in formation)

umm. Here is wedge formation for reference

Wedge Formation is a new mechanics that represents the coordinated push through the opponent's defenses.

Mechanic
Type: Active/Activated
Card Text: Creatures in Wedge Formation attack as one.
Creatures in Wedge Formation attack as one.
Effect: When activated, the creature that previously activated Wedge Formation this turn will not attack. This creature's current attack increases by the current attack of the creature that previously activated Wedge Formation this turn.
