Luki: What is the deal with Brainfreeze and Untouchable?

Huh, interesting.

Untouchable is implemented, but nobody has access to it yet. Luki jumped the gun a little when we encouraged him to develop a variety of powers for the Arilou way back when.

Brainfreeze... That's a bit of an oversight, actually. It's currently entirely unimplemented, though don't be too surprised if it gets recycled onto a Hierarchy PSI user at some point in the future. Wink

That's quite a useful reference you've cobbled together; it'll make my life easier finding the info I need, anyway. Thanks!

Yeah, I'm going to steal that for the other thread, thanks. Brainfreeze was an Arilou power that I posted, but I realised that it wasn't much use. It's essentially exchanging one AP for two of the enemies.

Hey, that's pretty good! Love the difference between Wubula and the stock Syreen. Now get your butt to the other thread and tell me how Bach moves, or I wont move him at all when I update tonight.

Bach's upgrade is the ability to ignore the rule that gives the enemy a free strike when he flees? A rule which we all had to be reminded of when we tried it after 4 months? Why not give him the ability to turn his head 360 degrees instead? Just as useless, but more fun.

Not every mission will give you the luxury of never being jumped and forced into close combat with some exceedingly nasty creatures. Heck, maybe not even this one.

EDIT: Also, you would have loved the offensive option  Tongue

I sure hope Wubula's upgrade won't be the ability to turn orange.

That depends on the type of upgrade you pick.

Is the Fallback ability automatically activated when withdrawing from the first enemy, or can Bach decide to save it for later in the turn (to flee from more than one enemy, for instance)?
(I'm updating the units/items index, and I want to know where to put it)

First enemy only. After that they catch onto the trick... At least until next turn.

There wouldn' t be a trick initially. The scenario I'm talking about is that Bach would run away, taking the free strike, and then from his new position he would flee again, using the Fallback ability.

The usage of "allows" and "can [only] be done" in the description of the ability ("Allows the user to break away from melee combat range without suffering a free strike from the enemy. This can only be done once per turn.") suggests that using the ability is a choice.
