October 1, 2009 6 PM - Power Switch

400 point team build, unrestricted. At the begining of each round, a die will be rolled and the colored powers will switch places (ie. Movement powers will now become Damage powers, etc). Characters with special powers can only be used if the special powers directly transfer into PAC powers (ie. character can use Outwit and Perplex (black and brown)). Zoom is an example of a character that does not work.


October 8, 2009 6 PM - Sidekick

Campaign Event 3*. 250 point team build for two characters only (one being your campaign character). Unrestricted.


October 15, 2009 6 PM - Big Bash

2000 point team build. No restrictions.


October 22, 2009 6 PM - Universe Crossover

Campaign Event 4*. 800 point build. Unrestricted. One single character (campaign character) crosses over to another universe and becomes part of one of that universes teams (team comically accurate). If the other universe team is a keyworded theme team, the single character will gain that keyword.


*It is not required to participate in the campaign to play in this event. There is a $1 participation fee for the campaign. You will be awarded 1 point for participating, 3 for event winner, 3 for fellowship, and 2 for team that best follows the theme of the event (this will be voted on by the participants).

we dont know how many points the universe cross is?

How exactly does campaign week 3 work? Like, if I have a 200 point campaign character, do I add another character up to 50 points? Or am I looking for a second character that is around the the 200 point mark? And could I drop feats from the campaign character to make more room for the secondary character?

fox007
09/30/2009, 13:32
its ur campaign charter plus another charter (sidekick). the feat still at 10% of build total

Hesster56
09/30/2009, 21:02
In that case-forgive me for not knowing this but I've been gone a few weeks-I don't have to keep the same feats on my campaign fig as I did for the first match? I can raise and lower them as needed? Or am I wrong in that assumption?

fox007
09/30/2009, 21:06
well in the feat it up event the 10% rule was ignored so u cant have that many feats this time so in this event (unless charles come on and sayes otherwise) u can only have 20 -25 points of feat depending on the build total. so if u want u can use that same feat u did in the feat it up event as long as they add up to 20-25 pt

So clear now! I thought that the campaign char had no limits on feats and that would carry over into other games as well. Thanks for the clarification.

800 pts seems a bit high for the Universe Cross-over. It just seems like the campaign character will look sort of buried in the morass.

fox007

No i think thats perfect bcus there r a lot of campaign charaters that r over 100 pts. anything else and u wouldnt be able to fit what charters (comic accurate) u wanted. and ud be extremely limited to what teams u can play at 800 pts u have a wide variety of chooses

gatharion

Actually, I find 800 pts MORE limiting as it makes it harder to make comic accurate teams for anything besides the big ones (JLA, Avengers, JSA). Even X-Men is kinda tough if you're trying to stick to a particular era. A comic accurate team with something like the Fantastic Four or Teen Titans or Outsiders becomes difficult. "Lesser" teams like Alpha Flight or Outsiders even tougher and anything Indy is pretty much out of the question.

I just added up the team I was thinking of playing for that Universe Cross-Over event and confirmed that there is no way that I could make the team for 800pts. They just haven't made enough characters for this particular team. 600 or 700 pts I could do.

I suppose this is just my problem though. I'll come up with something else.
I was just hoping to do something more interesting than X-Men or Avengers.

fox007
10/06/2009, 20:54
well, im planning on usin outsiders and i got it up to 800 pts and ur addin ur fig to the build total, so if ur usin a fig over 100 pt (like me) i made a team of 800 pts so it is possible. beside u could do defenders or squadarn supreme or new avengers, i even did a fantatic four team at 100 pts once and only usin a different version of sue. (mainly bcus 19 defense w/ alt ff team is too hard to pass up) if ur havin problem thinkin up interestin teams at 800 pt pm me.

Ah, but I don't have a whole lot of Marvel figures...

I was hoping to use the BPRD, but the only way I could make that work would be the use of a blatantly non-comic accurate teammate like Rasputin.

I'm curious to see what comic accurate incarnation of the Outsiders you'll be able to pull off.

I am interested in seeing who your campaign figure is. I have been trying to figure out who in Marvel would benefit the most from Outsiders.

My campaign fig is Hawkman, that's no secret at this point.

Teaming him up with the BPRD wasn't my most competitive option (you need to really take advantage of that wildcard TA in order to make the BPRD competitive), but it was an excuse to teamup Hellboy and Hawkman, two of my all time favorite comic characters.

There's two, maybe three people on my Crossover team that just...don't....quite...fit the Heroes for Hire idea. But I might play it anyway. Slade with a ton of martial artists from the marvel U is looking wicked fun on paper.

I will therefore lose horribly.

fox007
10/07/2009, 20:39
actually try thunderbolts for slade. idk if slade was in the marvel universe i see him bein a part of the tbolts. i actually run martial artist all the time and they always work for me. but really look into thunderbols for slade

Oh, I have. They are my backup. I was hoping for an idea along the lines of a Marvel Society, and saw Osborn's Avengers as the perfect fit. He's Captain America for the bad guys.

fox007
10/07/2009, 20:50
he so is. i either see him w/ the tbolts or teamin up w/ taskmaster or deapool

Taskmaster and Deathstoke kind of scares me comic wise. That would be brutal.

Personally I see him teaming up with Hydra after having his services bought by Red Skull.

Oh, I did too. And if Hydra had more than five figures that went beyond "merely adequate" I would have done so.

Won't be there tonight, btw.

Wish I could have made it. I am dying to roll some dice.

*Crosses fingers for next week*

Am I the only one that thinks it'd be funny to see Slade paired up with one of the Deadpool figures or the Wade Wilson LE?

Other than that I'd sorta figure that Illuminati would be accurate.

2000pts Thurs? hmm...I 'd love to make it, but I'm still not sure if I can.

Awesome games tonight guys! Sorry Jay Garrick wasn't much of a match...:disappointed:

Since we have the week off, I was toying around with team builds for the campaign. Did we set any point values for the upcoming games? Especially the one where our character wakes up and joins another team....

gatharion
10/28/2009, 14:54
I've got no idea what the point value will be or even what is next.

fox007
10/28/2009, 17:17

1st week: 2 seperate 800 pt teams one hero one villian nuff said
2nd week: make a 800 pt team w/ ur charater and people that he/she usually fights against

Gotcha, thanks. I'll have fun with these. The team building is darn near my favorite part.

Could I actually get a bit more said, please?

Everyone should bring two different teams. Each team must be 800 pts, one team must be a team of heroic characters and the other must be a team of villains.
And this has nothing to do with the campaign events.

Is that all correct?

Thanks Joe, I appreciate it. Like Hess said, team building is my favorite part. Though my teams never work out, it is fun just to build them.

And I might as well get as much playing in with different figures before HoT comes out. Because after that, it is pretty much going to be teams of the Runaways. I picked up issues 2-6 of the original run and a couple other issues and they are really growing on me. Especially Nico and Chase.

I hear you on the runaways...I am excited about playing with Hector and Pedro the Moloids...they are really growing on me!!!!
