'Legendary Action' naming/rules #53

Closed CBroz1 closed 2 years ago

CBroz1 commented 2 years ago

In alpha testing, the big bad had a legendary action. Can we use another term? Any rules to further specify what this means?

Hm I've seen a few examples out there we can potentially use or refine, I said Legendary in the moment but definitely agree we need a unique one. This will only apply to enemy Dealers, so I wonder if we call them "Dealer Actions" or "Adversary Actions".

I like "Adversary Action" though it is sort of a mouthful. I found the word "Adversary" in a list of card game terms and it felt appropriate and unique to DofA.

The Swamp Shaman uses an Adversary Action to make the ground bubble beneath your feet, causing Acid to rise up. Make an Agility check for me.

We'll also want terminology for "Lair Action" where a major action happens at the top or bottom of every turn during a fight with the big bad. Keeping in line with Card Game terms, maybe "House Action"?
