View Full Version : 300 Points for Your Perusal...

So, here we go.

I thought I'd try something new (new to me anyway). I am pretty darn familiar with this game, though by no means am I familiar with EVERY nuance of it. So my big IDEA was this. I am gonna try and create as many different teams as I can, using figs that I have available to me, using stategies not exactly the norm for this place. i am well aware of the prevailing opinion of needing lots of free move taxi's and 10 inch ranged fighters, outwit and PC. What I am trying to do is come up with something besides the R Black Panther, E Black Cat, U wasp, V Bullseye and E Firelord , V Doombot , R vulture with a E A.I.M. Medic. ( or variations thereof)

Most of the teams I will be posting will have a glaring weakness of some kind to most of you people, and that's fine. I am WELL aware of the shortcomings of most figs. What I would like to know, really, is if they MIGHT work, and how with MINOR tinkering they might be better.

Just so you know, I will NEVER mix Marvel and D.C.( personally I don't like D.C. that much, so I would NEVER sully my precious Marvel figures with thier presence). Also I just LOVE to use Uniques. Heck, I go through all that trouble to get the darn things, I figure I might as well use em, right? I also prefer to use the 300 point format, with the occasional 200 point thrown in.( oh, I also like silly names for my teams)

So, with no more chit chat, here we go!

So here we go. Obviously this is not a power team, nor a speed team, nor a team built to take a really heavy pounding. It is a team built on deciecpt and trickery. With two perplexers, it can increase the magic maidens range to 10 for incapacitate and mind control. then of course she gains the defense shredding phsycic blast, wich is alway's nice. The good doctor is of course highly mobile on his own with L/C and willpower, and can do some decent damage with super strength. Mandroid is of course nothing more than Spirals personal Taxi. Quicksilver is a harraser for grounded range figs and provides free moves for the wildcards.

So imagine this little scene. Someone stops 9 squares away. up Enchantress's range to 9 her attack up one, and mind control the to either move into spirals range, or to attack their own character.( I prefer taking control and then making em walk to the semi human chop master myself) there's TONS of possiblities with this team.

if you can find a great strategy for it, of a way to MINORLY tweak it to make it better, let me know, ok? ( like I sadi, I KNOW what the major weaknesses are, so you can skip that part.)

THANKS!

not bad at all, i like the originality. might could save a few points by using vet logan though and hes just cool. if you like quicksilver look into nightcrawler or vet whirlwind

not so much that I LIKE Quicksilver as it is that he provides me with me free moves, and is cheap.

I AM woking on a good Nightcrawler team though

the team is pretty nice .... the free move of the quicksilver is nice... but I might try to put in the vet instead.. his points are quite a bit better for 4 points more.... I like your originality... you have your powerhouse brawler with minions of doom, and your 2 perplexers... I cant see much problem in the team.. nice job:D

thanks! the only problem is, Vet Quicksilver couldn't allow the doombot to move for free right? cause V QS is unafilliated, isn't he?

of course spiral can't be taxied, and a Mandroid can't fly. But a mandroid CAN TK spiral up to ten spaces, HENCE the Taxi

Some observations:

You may not believe me now, but V Quicksilver is an absolute monster when you can perplex him. He has defense against ranged attacks (16+Energy Shield), good movement, a good attack value (9 is good w/ flurry), and reasonable damage. Perplex his damage to 3 and he will mow down most opponents. Perplex his damage to 4, and watch your opponent cry. If you want to use Quicksilver as a utility piece, you can use E Quicksilver(Who is an Avenger) instead, but he's not quite as nasty.

I'm not sure whether Spiral+Mandroid is particularly worthwhile unless you have other plans for the Mandroid.

I understand that, but without the brotherhood for the wildcards to copy, there is no free move. As far as Spiral and the mandroid go, of course the mandroid becomes useless after spiral is gone, but she can take out ANYONE in the game in one turn if ya get lucky. So, just to me, it's worth the risk. how would you rearange to fit E quicksilver in?

Cool team! Versatility and the unpredictability of perplex.
Mandroid also lends the SHIELD ability to spiral for some suprise enhancement.

my all girl team was
Moondragon
Exp white queen
Spiral
U elektra
Exp Black cat
rookie scarlet witch. fun stuff for having only one taxi :)

I have a couple of all-girl teams. One is good; one is evil.

Good Girls
R-Jean Grey
E-Black Cat
V-She-Hulk
V-Elektra (glaive)
Moondragon
V-AIM Medic (okay they're not really good, but I figure agents can change sides)

Bad Girls
Enchantress
Titania
Moondragon (She's been on both good and bad guys sides)
V-Yellowjacket
E-AIM Medic

You could drop Yellowjacket to E to get another MoE in there. You could also replace Titania with E-White Queen for triple mind control (but watch out for Mind Control chaining!).
