Marvel Heroclix

[Cyclops]

{{New stuff: Hulk (R) - Quasar (U) - Thug (E) - Vulture (V) - Blade (R) - Rogue (E)}}

And it happened right in my house. Kee-ool.

Two teams, four players, 500 points per player.

Cyclops's Team: - Quasar (U) - Professor Xavier (E) - Wolverine (E) - Juggernaut (E) - Rogue (V) - Scarlet Witch (V)

&

Sister's Team: - Nightmare (U) - Bullseye (E) - Hercules (V) - Sabretooth (V) - Annihilus (V)

Vs.

Gambit's Team: - Captain America (U) - Spider-Man (U) - Pyro (V) - Firelord (V) - Hulk (E) - Elektra (V) - Jean Grey (V)

&

Brother (formerly known as Mini-Hulk on these boards): - Kingpin (V) - Daredevil (V) - Whirlwind (E) - Controller (R) - Constrictor (R) - Wolfsbane (E) - SHIELD Agent (R) - SHIELD Medic (R) - Skrull Warrior (R, E, & V) - Blade (V)

The lowdown: The shopping mall map. A huge melee ensued when all the pieces swarmed outside to confront each other.

My main strategy fell when Firelord got a critical hit on Quasar, a full six clicks. So I had to change. Juggernaut, Hercules, & Sabretooth swarmed out and hit Mini-Hulk's team down a lot. Numbers don't mean power. Spider-Man had Outwit with him after afew hits, cancelling Annihilus's Invulnerability, allowing Firelord to hit him. Hard. Nightmare and Rogue swarmed through Gambit's team, taking out Captain America, Jean, Pyro, and Spider-Man. Hulk retreated under Firelord's fire to grab a dumpster.

Mini-Hulk finally went down as he pushed Blade too far to take Bullseye out, and it was down to Nightmare, Juggernaut, Wovlerine and Rogue to handle Firelord and Hulk. Rogue and Wolverine pegged Firelord down enough before being taken down to allow Juggernaut to crush Firelord, and Nightmare and Juggernaut pummeled Hulk down enough to get the win for my side.

This was the most engaging game of anything I've ever played... and so incredibly nerve-wracking. Immensely fun.

Thanks Man! The promo SPIDER-MAN (V) and BATMAN went for over 30 bucks... so I passed on them.

The store where I've been buying Heroclix was sold out today!

Dang Cyclops . . . HAHAHA - that's a wild one! An impressive battle. . . How long did ya'll play? Just looking at the teams, Its hard to see how Gambit with Unique SPIDER-MAN and Unique Cap. America could lose... But then again, there were lots of high level characters in the game. Very neat. . . I need to play more to get a better feel for the game. I still am confused about this. . . do all action tokens clear at the begining of your turn? That would be like the untap phase in MtG. . . ?

Action markers are optional. They're only there so you can see who you've moved and who you haven't. After the end of your turn, you clear them.

The only problem we had was that the map doesn't flatten good enough. We need to get a big piece of plexiglass or something to place over the board so we get a smoother map.

I knew that was optional!

That sucks. Happenes to me too.

Regarding the action markers. . .

If you clear them after every turn the game does flow better . . . faster. . . and we play that way sometimes. But then you loose the "push" concept. Where a given character is not supposed to have consecetive actions. . . that is if they had an action the previous turn, they are supossed to wait a turn or you have to "push" them. In that case they get a click of damage *and* another marker. . . Note that some super powers can assign a marker and damage in this way.

The rules do allow that *both* markers clear together at the end of the next turn. . .

Bada-bing, bada-boom! 500-point game comin' at ya!

Cyclops's Team: Sentinel (Mark VII, 300 pts) - Quasar (U) - Elektra (V) - Scarlet Witch (V)

Mini-Hulk's Team: Annihilus (V) - Firelord (E) - Sabretooth (V) - Captain America (R) - Hulk (R) - SHIELD Agent (R,E) - Blade (R) - Skrull Warrior (V)

The Battle:

The invasion began. He moved first, pulling Firelord out to the forefront. BIG MISTAKE!!! Sentinel's Running Shot allowed him to nail Firelord four clicks. Elektra zipped out into the bushes, sneaking from bush to bush until she got close enough to nail Captain America and Sabretooth. Sentinel and Quasar continued to pummel Firelord and Annihilus, until Quasar was KO'd. Scarlet Witch was a key player - continually screwing Mini's rolls up.

Annihilus and Firelord fell, and the Skrull Warrior leaped from the top of a tall building to his demise. Sentinel stormed forward and removed the SHIELD Agents with Scarlet Witch's aid. This allowed him to capture the still-Bruce Banner Hulk, and managed to take him home and out of the game. Then it was a simple matter of Scarlet Witch taking out Cap, and Sentinel taking out Sabretooth before the Stealthed Blade was forced to come out. Sentinel smashed the rest of his hindering terrain. He fell with a single Sentinel blast. Sentinel, Scarlet Witch, and Elektra escaped entirely unharmed.
