Title: Overhead Imagery

Duration: 2 Turns

Aww you stole that card from my camo post.

Title: A10 Strike 150g

Duration: 3 turns

Frequency: Rare

Effect: Travels across a section of the map doing damage to any units in a straight line as it passes over. If a10 survives the duration of the attack, 30% of gold is refunded


Title: A10 Strike 2 250g

Duration: 4 turns

Frequency: Ultra Rare

Effect:Two a10s travel across different line sections of the map doing damage to any units in a straight line as it passes over (each a10 can only attack a unit once unless it manages to get in front of it's path again) For each a10 that survives the durations of the attack, refund 25% gold.


Title: A10 Strike 3 430g

Duration: 5 turns

Frequency: Ultra Rare

Effect: Two a10s travel across different line sections of the map doing damage to any units in a straight line as it passes over (each a10 can only attack a unit once unless it manages to get in front of it's path again) For each a10 that survives the durations of the attack, refund 20% gold.


The increase in turn duration means it travels across the map slower allowing a chance for the enemy to shoot down the a10 before it exits the other side of the map or it's duration has run out. User can pick hex line it will travel down and direction. Possibly give it slightly more damage than a heli vs ground and maybe 20% of that damage vs air (or cause air units to lose a turn through needing to evade). Cannot damage buildings.

This would be a card you would use to bomb roads where heavy units are likely to be traveling to move faster
