Hey truth, yeah, comic shops and bookstores SHOULD have them. In fact, comic shops are the most likely. Me and Cyke picked ours up at a local Mall gaming store, so, shop around I guess....

I get mine at comic shops, gaming stores, and book stores!

 

[Cyclops]

I have enough now to play a game I had wanted to from the start:

X-Men (me) & Avengers (my brother) vs. Two teams of villains (other brother & sister).

But that won't be quite as cool as going up against Gambit.

SENTINELS RELEASED IN THIRTEEN DAYS!!!

Yeah, well guess what? The store Gambit and me shop at gives us free credit towards more figures for each time we buy something! We spend twenty bucks worth of Clix? We get twenty bucks of free credit. Already I've grabbed a free Veteran
Sabretooth and a free Experienced Scarlet Witch, a total of eleven dollars of value! And I've got abot $41 more dollars left to pick and choose!!

You can't beat a deal like that!

I hope they don't get delayed like marvel legends!

 

[Cyclops]

I don't see why they would delay 'em. They're all ready, apparently, they've even test-played them. Why delay?

Good point, they should be on schedule, in fact, they should be shipping tommorow, so, who knows.

Anyways....Got another Starter, no unique. Cyke and I were under the impression that they all came with Uniques...oh well. Still managed to pick up a singular Unique Juggernaut. Looks cool as hell. Be sure to check my list on pg.1 for all my characters.

My starter set never came with a unique.

 

[Cyclops]

Aw, Poor Gamer! Hee hee hee...

 

[Truthteller]

I GOT SOME!

I found the Heroclix at the electronic gaming store at the mall!

I immediately got a starter set and a booster. I wanted to get the big starter set... that has the 10 *non-random* characters, with SPIDER-MAN and the HULK, etc... but they didn't have those... anyone seen em?

Anyway, my starter set didn't come with a unique, but it did have some veterans and along with the booster, I got these veterans:

DAREDEVIL
JUGGERNAUT
CONSTRICTOR
VULTURE

Then experienced; WOLVERINE, KINGPIN, and FIRELORD.

My Firelord dosn't want to stay on his base, so I think I will glue him carefully. . .

Great game. . . played a few times. . . must have more! Must have Unique Symbiote SPIDER-MAN!

 

[Cyclops]

Just last night, me & Gambit had our first fight!

Cyclops's Team: Wolverine (E) - Professor Xavier (E) - Juggernaut (E) - Annihilus (E) - Elektra (V) - Wasp (U)

Gambit's Team: Hulk (E) - Hobgoblin (E) - Blizzard (E) - Whirlwind (E) - Kingpin (V) - Bullseye (V) - Juggernaut (U)

Setting: Outdoors, Map 2

The Overview:

At the roll, I got to move first. Juggernaut was sent over to a dinner table, while Elektra and Wolverine hid in the shrubbery. Xavier held back, while Annihilus and Wasp leaped into the forefront. Gambit brought out his forces, sending Whirlwind, Hulk, Bullseye and Hobgoblin to the front. A running shot from Annihilus pegged Hulk, Hobgoblin and Whirlwind down. Professor Xavier got a hold of Bullseye, manipulating him into shooting Hobgoblin down.

A huge part of Gambit's strategy involved pushing his characters to try and hit mine, but those hits failed. Hobgoblin, Whirlwind, and Hulk fell first, followed by Bullseye. At this point, Gambit's startegy changed to running away. I bring out Elektra and Wolverine, cornering down his team. I had kingpin cornered with juggernaut and Wolverine, but he ran down the stairs. A mind control action from the Prof. sent Kingpin back up the stairs, while he survived the beating, decided to commit suicide by leaping off the building's roof.

Then, it was a matter of taking out Blizzard and whittling down Juggernaut.

Score thus far, Cyclops 1, Gambit 0. We'll be keeping you posted on how things keep up.

 

[Cyclops]

They're saying on the boards that there was a Limited Edition Batman piece... I don't really believe it, but.... hmm.

 

[Cyclops]

Wow! It's right! They weren't kidding!

 

[Spider-Gamer]

I got more! I will update my list tomorrow!

 

[Truthteller]

I got some more too!

I got a Unique Prof. Xavier!

V. Magneto. . . Man is he cool! What a bad mofo. . . does 4 clicks damage!
V. Annihilus . . another bad mofo. . .
V Constrictor...

Those are the highlights. . . I NEED A SPIDER-MAN! I don't have any, let alone the unique.

Have any of you seen the deluxe starter kit that comes with 10 characters? It has SPIDER-MAN and the HULK in it supposedly. . . but I can't find one . . .

Anywho . . . My son beat the crap outta me tonight cause he kept using Scarlet Witch's ability to make me roll again and I couldn't hit his high level defensive characters consistently. . .dang. Fun game though.

Do ya'll play with a time limit or just go untill all of one side is killed, or gives up?

Hmm.... since Superman has a blue base, does that mean the archenemy rule applies with Wolverine and Sabretooth?

I'll assume that it's fully compatible with Infinity Challenge....

Hey you never know!

And I think you could mix then together. I think I read that somewhere. Saying that "when dc heroclix come ouy you could replay or creat your own marvel dc teamups".

Hey Guys,

I have a couple of questions about Heroclix game play. Just wondering how ya'll interpret the rules.

1) How many actions do you take per turn?

2) Do you have to use an action to remove a marker from a hero, or do they all clear at the end of the next turn?


ALSO: I'm a pretty heavy eBay user, and there are a lot of Heroclix on there. I even found both the SPIDER-MAN and BATMAN promotional figures and an INQUEST mag with Heroclix featured. . .

THANKS in advance for any answers to the questions!

 

[Truthteller]

Kewl. . . Lookie what I found. . .

 

[Cyclops]

He gets released next Monday. Six inches tall, 100 points each. Kewl!

As for your questions:

(1) - First, set a score limit for your team construction. Then, divide that result by 100. That's how many actins you get per turn. Remeber: Avengers and Brotherhood members move for free.

(2) - Action markers are optional, they just let you know who's done what so far. That's all.

I saw the Premire pack today but i had most of the figures. For example: I think that all the sets come with a experience Spider-Man and a rookie Wolverine. It shows the two on a clear circle on the box.

As you see I have 3/4 of all the Spider-Man heroclixs!
