Move Creation Workshop

[Captain Marvelous]

Alright, I've been thinking over how best to represent Marvelous' Gokai Changes. The core concept is being able to turn in to members of the 34 previous Sentai teams, from the old and silly, the magical to the high tech, to the new and stranger teams. The idea is that turning into these other forms don't necessarily make GokaiRed stronger, but rather let him change up his style and access a different set of weapons, moves and powers. I also like the idea of them breaking when he takes a major hit, both to blunt the blow and to emulate how that usually happens in Sentai shows.

So my idea was to buy a bunch of different Gokai Change Moves. They don't boost my stats enough for a higher level form. But should I get 34+ individual moves as I unlock the Ranger Keys or should I buy a single move with the pertinent universal defensive use and keep adding variations for each team I unlock? Some changes will use powers like Flight or Burst Speed, some will give me new moves or super moves, some may even have their own powered up form. Would it be easier book keeping wise to just keep improving one move or to buy many of them and customize each one?

Sometimes the benefit is increased skill in a fighting style not my normal, like samurai sword or kung fu. Can I model the flexibility and surprise of changing styles as just moves if they don't actually make me any better off a fighter all around, just different?

Do I need shapeshifting if all 34+ of my Gokai Changes just turn me into a slightly different helmeted red spandex clad warrior with a sword and a gun?

I'm thinking the next few I'd like and their benefits would be;

-Shinkenger, a really really big sword, skill in samurai sword style, "Mojikara" word magic lets me write the kanji for things to create them

-Kakuranger, gives increased stealth, a flaming sword and the ability to split into 5 shadow clones.

-Jetman, the ability to fly and an improved punching gauntlet

-Zyuranger, nothing special, just nostalgia

-Magiranger, shoot fire as a move, other magic abilities on my cell phone wand, like shapeshifting and more fireballs

-Timeranger, ability to slow time and Matrix dodge

-Dairanger or Gekiranger for increased kung fu and ki-fireballs
