= 275 points. Gotham City theme. What feats should go with?

Lunge, of which I have 3, is an absolute no-brainer on Damian Robin, with his CR and CCE to actually make him a much-needed damage dealer. AA Robin is probably the next best candidate, but I might want him away from fight to use his all-important Perplex. I also like the feat on TT Robin from his 2nd click on.

TT Robin could use Contingency Plan. A little concerned that his TA is wasted. Mercenary on BA Robin can solve that problem...but is it worth the 10(?) points?

Cheap and long-lived, BA Robin is a good choice for Pounce to give this team a long-ranged threat. But it totally bloats his cost, and his survivability isn't so hot. Dunno.

Finally, there's Flashbang: dynamite on AA Robin, just OK on the rest of the candidates.

Thoughts (aside from how rubberhosed this team'll be against Extant :p)? BFCs?

I dislike the thought of pushing Emo Robin to get to use it...

Isn't the Vet Robin from HT also 22 points? You could add another Robin for even more Robin-awesomeness and only have three points left over.

Or, if you don't want to do that, a feat combo you could consider is Pounce + Maneuver on BA Robin. He Pounces long-range and pulls opponents out of hindering for batarang death from everyone else.

This leaves you 2 points for Infiltrate, which could go on the CR Robin 001, since he actually has Stealth and not the Bats TA.

I would be tempted to add the other Icons E Robin (for 42 points) to the build. He's still pretty good with his Incap/Willpower combo.
Oh, and Mercenary to Titans is not a very good idea IMO... Too expensive to be worth it.

Went with this.

CR Robin 79
AA Robin 66
BB Robin 43 + Lunge 5
CR Robin 35 + Lunge 5
BA Robin 30 + Pounce 15
IC Robin 22
= 300 points (25 in feats). Surprising 2-1 record despite all the 2 damage and going against largely Outwit-proof forces (Power Cosmic, Quintessence, Stealth or Fortitude was on at least half the points of each opposing team). It actually took an illegal team (38 points of feats, over the 10% limit) and near-total attack FAIL in the final round to beat it.

I'm probably going to do a blog writeup on this force.

Darkness as the BFC for sure.

I would NOT go with Con Plan on TT Robin. Your AVs aren't terrible, and you'll have some Perplex to boost it, Outwit to help against ES/D or CR, and a few theme team probs.

If you can use Darkness and/or Deep Shadows to help even up the range game, then definitely try to get some feats to help your damage or defense.

edit - i see you already played! nice job going 2-1!
