500 point restricted

[WildTurkey]

Looking to round out this team. Map is Rainbow Bridge, I need 10 points that works/helps this team.


SI Mr. Fantastic+Brilliant Tac
SI Johnny Storm
SI Spider-Man
SI The Thing+Unstoppable+Cannonball
Classics The Thing+Unstoppable+Cannonball

And which BFC's would work well with this.

I'm leanings towards either Takedown or Stunning Blow on Spidey?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Why the Classics Thing? Why not one of the Sue Storm variants: the starter or the LE?

I'd go with Heightened Reflexes (10 points) on Johnny Storm...with the abundance of move/attack powers in the game, he could use a saving roll like Super Senses.

I like both the sues, But for some reason when I use them the get wiped out pretty quickly. And with everyone running HOT stuff I figure I needed the extra Hard hitter. Never really thought of Heightened Reflexes> I'll have to fool around with that.

Well Darn, Thats sinister and thus retired.

10 points or 12?, looks like you have 12 to spare. So, maybe an Improvise on Mr. Fantastic and a Lunge for Spidey.

The FF team I was thinking about is this:
SI Mr. Fantastic + Brilliant Tactician (120)
SI Human Torch (100)
SI Sue Storm + Elite Sniper (120)
SI Benjamin J. Grimm + Unstoppable (105)
SI Spider-man + Lunge (55)

The idea would be to keep the FF close to each other, at least within 6 for Sue to grant Super Senses. Only 1 in 6 chance, but it definately doesn't hurt to have.

Torch vs Johnny, Pulse Wave is fun and all, but that Poison keeps the opponent thinking about wether or not to base Human Torch. Also, Torch keeps up better in the beginning, so you can push if necessary. Dual targets don't hurt either, especially with Energy Explosion.

Woman vs Sue, more aggressive mainly. Tecnically I like Invisible Woman Better, but a full dial of Elite Sniper with better range and a sharable power outweighs what I like about Invisible Woman. Also, I'm not sure, but you may be able to TK someone out of Stealth with her (I'll check on that).

Ben vs Thing, Indomitable, 'nuff said. Okay, I'll add more. Ben has more damage reduction over all, slightly better defense and even more raw damage (less Super Strength, but how many objects do you really use?). When Defend kicks in and people crowd around him, he's also granting them Toughness at the same time! Also, since he doesn't charge as far, you're less likely to have him wander on his own and get pasted while he's away. If you need to go out, send Spidey, he's used to being on his own and you lose far less points if he gets taken out.

Good points Ray, Thanks for that write up......I'll have to play around with it and see what I can do

[WildTurkey]

And its ten points. Cannonball and unstop are 5 points each.

Augh!, my true identity! :p

According to this site Cannonball is 4 points, haven't looked at the actual card.

Yeah, if a TK'er has Elite Sniper you can grab them out of Stealth (Hi Batman!).

Now, if you rough me up with this team I'll be very annoyed (granted, it'll be my own fault, but still...).
