Weird and Whacky Goblin Secret Weapons
Posted: Fri May 01, 2009 9:32 am
Hi folks,
Some weird and wonderful ideas for additional secret weapons. Thinking they'd go best with goblins just for the wackiness of some of them - but may fit better fluff-wise with other more 'techy' teams.
All comments welcome - especially if anyone decides to use them locally!
Goblinadier - carries a huge catapult around with him for launching his team mates down the pitch. Requires player to be in the tackle zone of a non-stupid teammate (to assist setting up the catapult) and may then fire another goblin using TTM.
6237 stunty, TTM, Secret Weapon cost 40k?
(could ignore the requirement for help from a teammate to keep things simpler)
Flamethrower - uses the 'quick pass' part of the throwing template as the area of effect for spewing gouts of flame over everyone. To use, roll a d6 with a -1 per opposing tackle zone. 3+ flamethrower works fine. Natural 1 - flamethrower explodes causing automatic injury to goblin. reuslt of 2 - loss of control leads to firing in a random (d8) direction. All players under the template can be hit - on a 4+. If hit, player is knocked down and an armour roll made (no modifier)
6237 stunty, Secret Weapon, Flamethrower cost 80k? (while likely to go horribly horribly wrong, it could be pretty devastating if it works for a couple of turns)
Goblin Minelayer - at the start of a Move Action, the goblin may lay a mine in their starting square and run away. The mine is activated on a successful AG roll, modified by -1 per opposing tackle zone. Blows up on a natural 1. When any player enters a square (for any reason) containing a mine they must make an AG roll (unmodified) or they set off the mine and are knocked over - make an armour roll for them. Once detonated, a mine is removed from the board
6237 stunty, Mines, Secret Weapon cost 60k?
Alternative mines: net-mines that act as (St4?) tentacles for anyone trying to leave the square
Would love to hear other Secret Weapons people have come up with - and whether anyone has compiled a 'big list'
