If you try to block the psi king with a holo the psi king could just kill the holo because it has 9 str.  Or it could run away.

Of course you could go in a fortress...I'm not arguing with you there...but that only lasts so long.  Same thing with teleport...but the psi king will catch up to you eventually.

A tentacle or cyborg could kill it...but giving them the opportunity to do so is not easy...the psi king is faster and stronger than them both...so it could just run away or kill them before they even have a chance...don't forget the psi king has range str of 4 so it could fire away...a lot of times you can block a predator or spider with slimes...this you can't.

Just because you can one-hit something doesn't mean it's weak...a mech could be one hit by a predator, or another mech, or even anything with at least 5 str, though the percentage isn't high, it's still possible.  A skilled player would keep this thing far enough away from quick attacks, or if that's not possible, just destroy the quick attack before it ever had a chance of being launched.
I am a firm believer that the integral of e^x = f(u)^n, or, in mathematical notation: sex = fun.

If it kills the holo, which is either a 33.3% chance of a 50% chance, you'd have another round to try something else. I'm not saying it'd be easy to kill 1, I'm just saying that it's not impossible, and that it shouldn't be easy to kill a 20% beam. I don't think it would be much harder than killing a beamed mech (on neutral alignment.) And please respond to what I said about the fire.

What do you mean...if the psi king has 9 str, then the MINIMUM percentage to kill a blocking holo would be 50%, it would be more against any holo but a mech.  I obviously dislike the psi king idea in general, but if implemented I say 10% beam, less than 9 str (maybe 8 or even 7), and maybe even no range, though the range I'm not as concerned with.

You want me to talk about fire and goo?  Well for one, the psi king is strong enough to easily fight its way through goo, and if it gets eaten by goo then it's automatically real, which is even worse.  Fire does not spread quickly, many times it will burn itself out (meaning disappear, or lose spaces covered in fire).  There is obviously always a chance that if you put a fire next to a psi king it will burn, but that's the same low percentage chance as with any creature.  I think it's 1 in 9 or 1 in 10 to happen, so I don't think fire or goo is an adequate defence.

Uh, no Math, I wanted you to respond to what I said about fire in a previous post, perhaps 3 posts ago. It might have helped if you'd read it. Basically I said "you're ok with the fact that in game if you get within 6 spaces of a commander you can cast fire next to him and get an instant kill with the same odds as there are for beaming a psi-king... which isn't a guaranteed kill, but not ok with this unit?"

As to blob swallowing it; you're assuming the blob is swallowing a holo, in which case why not just holo it? Also I suggested moving down to 8 str. Making a unit with the stats 7 6 and movement of 3 have a beam down of 10% is ridiculous to me, particularly when the beam down is never going to get more likely. 8 6 I could accept. But seriously, you need to be less rigid. The original game this was based on had hundreds of units and the option to just make more and add them in game. The gowers just chose some random ones for cyberwars. It's the battle formula that makes this game, not the individual monsters.

Ur right it is ridiculous...the whole idea I mean.  Listen you have ur opinion and I have mine...we're not getting anywhere by arguing...so this is the last post I'm making on this thread...if it gets implemented I won't be happy...but it's not my call.  You wanted opinions at the beginning of the thread...well it's a little hypocritical when I give you mine and you don't accept it for what it is.

That's all I have to say...flame me all you want because I won't post anymore and am therefore defenceless.

I have not flamed you once, kindly don't misrepresent me. I merely argued with your opinion by stating my own arguments. If that's flaming you, then your arguing with my opinion by stating your own arguments was equally flaming me. I don't mind criticism, I just dislike being misrepresented like that. Anyhow, thanks for your opinion, luckily the bulk of posters are still in favour...

ok honestly I dont wanna read everything, I guess it's cuz im to lazy or its just the same thing over and over.... but all you have to consider the defense 6, anything can basically kill it, a nice light sabre teleport kill would do the trick for first player. I also  have had so many slime blobs kill cyborgs, I think that I can take down a psi king if it was thrown at me  :D BRING IT ON PSI KING IM NOT NO WUSS!!!
THE GUEST IS  HAVING HIS PERIOD!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA 

THE MIAMI HEAT HAD THE WORST FREE THROW SHOOTING PERCENTAGE IN FINALS HISTORY 37% AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AND DALLAS MAVERICKS IS GOING TO SWEEP THE MIAMI HEAT AHAHAHAHA

Heh, that's the spirit.

I want to try it, just to see what happens. It doesn't have to be perminant.

Re Last Two Posts: Exactly. :P

I like this quote, but I don't know if I agree.  :-\
