51. Revolver (Gunman). Here's another piece I created for my Clue crossover (which I'd start posting, except that I'm having a minor issue with the board design).
The Revolver is an iconic core part of the original Clue (aka Cluedo), so it needs to be in the game in some form. I wanted the rifle captures to be more distant than those of the Archer (1,2), so besides moving one step orthogonally without capture, it captures like a Bison at (1,3)(2,3). (mWcaibCcaibZ)
For context, in this game whoever holds a weapon gains that weapon's move for his Dummy piece, which replaces the King, but the weapon (and its powers) must be relinquished when it's part of a "proposal," or when its power is used to capture. (That's subject to change, of course, but it'll end up as something like that.) But the piece also has to be not too overwhelming as a Gunman in a regular CV, and after a discussion yesterday about the longer-range Sniper (0,5)(3,4), this is a concern.
My amateurish 3D sculpting skills are also a concern, but there's not much that you lot can do about that. :)
