This game has never shied away from referential humor, so I’d like to humbly offer a suggestion to round out the apocalypse team. The late Sir Terry Pratchett in his book “Thief of Time” had the four horsemen ride out, only to be joined by a fifth horseman (who had quit the band before they hit it big) named Chaos (or Kaos before he settled down and started selling milk).
I won’t presume to know all the balance issues that go into picking his colors, traits, and all of that, but for his power, I was thinking that he could scramble the board, turn a random color to skulls, than scramble the board again. Used properly, it virtually guarantees an extra turn and really lives up to his name.
To those that don’t know who I’m talking about, it doesn’t matter. You know you want another mythic apocalypse troop. As for those of us still chanting “no one dies so long as his name is spoken”, well, it’ll give us a chance to say his name a few more times. Especially if they dress Chaos as a milkman.
