British Assault Landing Craft - Card Posted Jun 27, 2018 20:40:43 GMT

This is a custom card being designed for my Strike North Campaign Scenario which I will be GMing during the upcoming MaizeCon in Waterloo, IA happening in October 2018. There are plenty of card designs already out there by such esteemed individuals as Sharpe, Thor711 and ObstbfEgon. I'm using them as starting points for my own versions. Some have been left entirely intact and others I have modified to my own purposes.

I used the Higgins Boat as a starting point. The attack stats are based on the idea that the boat's crew has a Bren Gun for protection.

Looking for feedback. What do you think? Should the cost remain as it is or perhaps drop it a point? Any concerns or questions?

Assault Landing Craft
Nationality: United Kingdom
Vehicle - Boat

Year available: 1940
Cost: 7
Speed: 2
Defense: 3/3
AI: 7/6/- (Updated)
AV: 2/2/-

Water Craft - This unit can enter only water hexes. This unit can enter water hexes as though they were clear hexes.

Heavy Transport - This unit has the transport ability but can carry 2 Soldiers and doesn’t have the restriction against carrying artillery. (A friendly Soldier can board or dismount this unit instead of moving during your movement phase.)

First used in May 1940 to land French Foreign Legion troops at Bjerkvik, Norway.

Ok. How about the point cost? 7 ok?

The attack is better than the Higgins but the Higgins has a long range the ALC doesn't have. I think it all balances.
