Proposal: DEVA Class Knight

Reached quorum, 7-0. Josh

Add the following to the tracked DEVA sub-species:

Designation KNIGHT, Energy range 90-125, Attack range 10-28, Defence range 5-25, 75% chance of special feature “Deflector Shield”: “When a fire post is resolved against this Bogey, if the fire vector is smaller than this Bogey’s defense, this Bogey gains 1 defense, if this would bring this Bogey’s defense above the maximum it becomes the maximum instead and the Poindexter should add a comment saying that the Bogey’s shield has shorted out.”.

I think enemies with abilities will be more fun to fight so I made one. Making effects that happen depending on if you guess too high or too low seems like a nice way to make guessing more interesting.
I deflector shield that has an effect when a deflect result occurs and also can short out has a simple implementation but adds some interesting guessing strategy.

ALSO: This is my first proposal so feedback would be helpful

for Looks good, a fine first proposal. I suppose might want to put feature rules text into the ruleset and just use keywords in the Ansible Hanger list, so that it’s easier to read and reuse them (and that a final boss with every possible feature won’t bloat the Hangar).
