Congrats on your win today. One of the house rules at this venue is no ICWO allowed. That was part of my build that got trashed when I arrived to play.
About kids - I don't mind them if they behave properly and then, I actually like them - mine are all college age and older now and managed to survive me. :laugh:

Good to see everybody still havin' a good time. I'll be back soon to Kools. Just haven't been feeling too good healthwise. :( I'll see if I can come this Saturday. How many points is the Mr. Roboto Tourney BTW?
Finally played Lucky in some Dreamblade. That game is sweet. It's even better than Clout! :laugh: Seriously, coming from a chess background, that game is right up my alley.
So I here the brats have taken over Kools. If I show up, and they act up, I'll do my best to me as annoying to them as possible. I'll tell em I got Cthulus for twenty bucks a piece or something.
On an interesting sidebar, I checked the weather report and...

Yo, Bubblehead, your boys the Seahawks are kickin' arse this season. Unfortunately for me (a Brown's fan :cry:) and Lucky (a Buccaneers fan :cross-eye ) it's looking like better luck next season. Hell, at least we'll get good draft picks.
On a positive note, my alma mater, the Ohio State University is serving up some beat downs. Number One, Baby!
Well, I just ebayed a couple more pieces for Dreamblade. For some reason, on EVERY website that seels them, it says Eater Of Hope's Appease ability was a blade ability, and not a come-into-play ability, which kept me from getting one (and netting a Whirlwind Dervish instead).
Brats...oi vey, do they play just about anything or was it just Horrorclix.
I've dealt with enough brats when I did my stint through Yugioh....never again!
When's Kools supposed to have the Dreamblade tournaments goin?! The Mrs. is prolly wondering why there have been an influx of boxes at the house. (God, I hope she doesn't see the invoices that have Scarab Warcharms in them, I'll freakin fry for it!)

It has been 33 posts since I was on the thread, and it has been worth the wait. I have GREAT NEWS!
As of Monday, Dreamland Hobbies is offically an active venue, once again, for all WizKids games!
I recieved an email from venue support expressing their sincerest appologies for the misunderstanding (below). Tournaments start up next week, Oct. 4th. Prize support will be shipped for the November tournaments, just in time for the SuperNova Marquee. Unfortunatlly, that means you have to get the NGN fig and map from Kools. Thanks for everyone sticking by me during this. I look forward to seeing all of you once again.
Team Vegas Has A Home Again!!!
=====
Hi Roland,
Apologies for the delay. I have already reactivated your venue account
but in reply to your email I was able to speak with your ACD sales rep
at their recent open house who cleared up the situation for me and, in
so many words, asked that I fast-track your account for re-approval.
Again, apologies for both the delay as well as your account's initial
deactivation. We are extremely concerned about prize-support fraud and
take any and all possible prize misuse very seriously.
If you have any further concerns or questions please let me know!
Thanks,
Rollie Watson

I caught up on all the latest gossip in the thread. Here are a few of my thoughts in no perticular order...
I literally pissed myself when Sleazy sang It's Raining Men. I had to go into the bathroom and clean up. Words can't do it justice. It was the funniest thing I have ever seen. I haven't pissed myself since Pulp Fiction when they blew the guys head off in the car.
Brady Quinn will look great in a Bucs uniform.
The Father of Team Vegas is in town.
Hopefully everyone will get a chance to meet my Dad while he is here on vacation. He went to the DreamBlade tourney with me, and will be at Dreamland, and may make it to Kools.
I apologize to everyone for the teams I have made Quite Storm the past two weeks at Kools. March-a-Tron and Trick Shot Mags were my ideas.
Funhog Ranch is the offical watering hole of Team Vegas.
I went 3-0 at the DreamBlade tournament Monday at Horsehead Hobbies. The look on their best player's face was priceless. There is a new Top Dog in Town, and he belongs to Team Vegas!
Jim your dice should have your energy on them now. But you can't just DO, you have to Believe!

Master Lucky, I believe the quote you are looking for is "Do . . . or do not . . . there is no try."
Or, perhaps, the rally cry of the 1983 World Series bound NY Mets "You Gotta Believe!"
FYI, last weekend I prob'd a double 2 roll and rolled a crit miss - some things just don't change! :(

It will be nice to get back to the Dreamland way of doing things (Captain's chest puffs up with pride) where points are tallied to rank the winners (even tho I don't get up to the top, I prefer the method). The other method practiced at Kools with the number of wins and table seating is way too quirky for me (and apparently for everyone else as well).
First of all, "old" Eric went into the final round 2-0, finished 3-0 and was declared third place finisher? So, instead of 2-0 "old" Eric pairing with 2-0 "old" Jeff for top dog going into the final round, I go in against "old" Jeff with a 1-1 record, my Kang finally gets killed off just prior to the closing bell, I end up 1-2 by virtue of playing at the head table and get declared second for the day? How does that happen? I tip my hat (once again) to "old" Eric and humbly accept third (albeit a weak third). Finally, to end the day, my third place choice of prizes got snaked by someone else playing at the lower end table, coming out 2-1 - another misunderstanding of the table ranking aspect of the Kools method. Gawd! As if putting up with the Horror Clix kids at the venue wasn't bad enough . . .
Thankfully, we return to the land of milk and honey this Thursday evening.
And, finally, even though you probably aren't registered here, welcome to "new" Eric from Texas.

FYI to all Team Vegas Members:
The Return Tournament at Dreamland Hobbies will be held on Oct. 19th at our normal time of 5:30pm. I talked with John (the owner) and he will be out of town for the first two thursdays of October. Prize Support will begin for the November tournaments.
The tournamnet will be 500pts unrestricted, BFCs allowed, Highlander Rule in effect, nothing banned. I highly suggest running HSS. We all know a certain member of Team Vegas, *cough*Bad6423, gets excited in his pants when he sees a chance to run the Bikini Stallion.
Ignore what the main WizKids site lists for the tournamnets. I have to go in there and reschedule, and the site is down right now. Will let you know when it is correct.

I apologize for not including you in the football post. The Cowboys also won this weekend, spoiling Vince Young's first NFL start, by blowing out the Titans. FYI, Albert Hainsworth got 5 games for stepping on your Center.

A Big Team Vegas Welcome to our extended brother out in Philly, Ro-gan.
Hello, all.
For those who don't know, this is Luke. A convention junky...
My name is Luke and I'm a Convention junkie.
...who is spending Thanksgiving with your Captain in Dallas for the Bucs Cowboys game!
I am so pumped for this game and tailgate party. A pre and post-game tailgate party with full Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings. This day can't get here soon enough for me!!
Some of you guys may remember him from WWLA this year. The guy who almost got a junk shot from Snow White and Little Red Ridding Hood.
I looked for them at WWE, but didn't see them. IIRC, it was Snow White who said she was from Philly. I still can't believe they punked out of giving me a junk shot. Getting one from them would have made my day. They were hot!
I apologize for not including you in the football post. The Cowboys also won this weekend, spoiling Vince Young's first NFL start, by blowing out the Titans. FYI, Albert Hainsworth got 5 games for stepping on your Center.
Didn't he also get fined $500,000.00?!? I still can't believe he did that. I thought it was okay stepping on Gurode when he had his helmet on, but to do it again after he knocked his helmet off was just wrong.
And how 'bout the Seattle style whoopin' Green Bay got tonight!
...It's poety in motion. She turned her tender eyes to me...
Carp In A Hat! I hate it anytime Philly wins. The loathing I feel for that team is beyond all levels.
To think, years ago in the 90's, they were so desperate for ratings and more public attention that they created a rivalry with Dallas that never existed prior to this.
Dallas's only rival was and is the Redkins. And, to some degree, the Steelers from all the Super Bowls they competed against each other in back in the 70's.

I think all football fans are fans of men touching other men and should "come out of the closet".
This from a man who loves Professional Wrestling. They prance out on stage, in nothing but a bikini bottom, and rub each other for 15 minutes. Is your refusal to run the Bikini Stallion a psycological denial of you being "in the closet". Hmmm, must ponder while I go pat Bad on the buttocks for a good play.
Don didn't get the names mixed up, he just hates Eric. I don't know why, but he hates the Esteemed Man ##### of Team Vegas. I think vengence must be taken on his two-wheel mode of transportation.

Remaining Hearlds of Galactus - I know there are more, and I know they haven't been made. Help me out here.

Hey out there all you clickers!!! To answer some of Lucky's querys... For the most part, the "original" hearlds represent the elements. Surfer is water. Firelord is fire. Terax is earth. Gaberiel is air. The other ones are Nova, the Destroyer and a Gaberiel construct. Missing any Sleazy??? Would like to see most of the figures you listed. Some people on this site think the next set will be Civil war and Anihillation based. :ermm: We will see!

This past Saturday, all four of us (Jim, new Jeff, old Mark and me) played in the sealed tourney at Kool's. We all pulled a Unique. New Jeff pulled Black King ( who is a BEAST:devious: in sealed!), Mark pulled Stilt-Man, Jim pulled Crystal and I pulled Jocasta:cry: AND Purple Man:grin: . Don was Dumbfounded that we all pulled Uniques, and that I pulled two FROM ONLY TWO PACKS!!! Anyway new Jeff won 3-0. Two weeks in a row, go Jeff! Any who, Maddrox is pretty cool. See you guys this weekend for Dynamic-Duoes :ermm: What? Again? Don watched too much Bat-Man growing up.
New Jeff

I think that's 3 weeks in a row... (not counting the off week.. MW Prizes WTF?). But thank you! Really I mean it.... you guys are a tough group to play against!!!!!!

Dynamic Duo:
Step 1: "Trade" a Vet Transporter Hawkeye to Karl for nothing.
Step 2: Buy a booster of Horrorclix or any White Wolf product along with said Vet Hawkeye.
Step 3: Tune out Karl's 15min conversation about the horror genre.
Step 4: Ignore Don's questions of why does that newly bought figure already have an ID sticker on the bottom of it?
Step 5: Run Vet Hawkeye & Vet Transporter Ghost Rider.
Step 6: Win LE :devious:
New Guy Night:
This tourney will mark my triumphent return to the Minor Venue! And what better way to make a return than with a 400pt unrestricted (mostly) tourney. Now if you really want to Screw Fellowship, I would follow the steps outlined above but replace Vet Transporter Hawkeye with Vet Black Adam. :eek:
Otherwise, Triple H should be showcased as the most dominate figure in the environment. Ultimate Phoenix and Firelord will turn most figures into extra crispy! Only 5% of the Seth-Block figures should be played, the rest can't hang with the old school figs. Will anyone attempt to turn Tomar Re's debut into a winner!?!
Supernova Map:
I'm not sold on this map. Don't like the shifting of the starting areas. And the areas are imbalanced, one is closer to the Alien Temple than the other by 1 square. And yes, 1 square makes a hugh difference.
I also don't like the rules for the Space Terrain. I don't like the fact that 1 map has rules that the 3 other Invitational legal maps don't have. Plus the rules need some FAQing, will have to wait until Hair10 does it.
...Some people call me a space cowboy. Some call me a gangster of love...

10/12/2006, 22:25
So, am I the only one who likes the new Supernova space map? Can't wait to put it into play. Love to see the space rules with the Guardians of the Globe TA. NO ONE ROLLS MORE DOUBLES THAN YOURS TRULY!!!:devious: So auto knock back (reguardless of damage reducing powers) and Incap when doubles are rolled.:cool: I LIKE IT!!! Question for our esteemed Captian... Does this new rule for deep space knock back figures with charge? I would think no. So COLOSSAL figs ignore Skrull and Danger Girl TA'S? Immunity to clevage and Daisy Dukes is a BAD THING!:cross-eye . Another Question for "Cappy... Will we be able to T-bolt to the GG TA at Dreamland? If not when? Any way see you all Saturday.

SPECIAL MAP RULES: SPACE TERRAIN
Equipped with personal life support and zero-g maneuvering jets, your assembled force leaps into the void!
Squares inside the boundary of an orange line on this map are space terrain. Space terrain is clear terrain modified by the following rules:
Characters given move actions when they occupy space terrain modify their speed values by +2 for the action. Halve the range values of all characters occupying space terrain and all characters drawing a line of fire to a character occupying space terrain.
A successful attack that does not otherwise knock back a character occupying space terrain knocks back that character a number of squares equal to the damage dealt -2, to a minimum of 0. When targeting a character occupying space terrain with Force Blast, roll two six-sided dice instead of one. All knock back ends immediately when a character enters the first square that is not space terrain. Characters occupying space terrain are not dealt knock back damage if their knock back paths are ended by the edge of the map.
Seth's Knockback Explaination:
Remember that lack of gravity that allows all characters to move more quickly, and to nearly fly across the map? It also means that they are much more vulnerable to getting thrown around. On Deep Space, characters in space terrain are knocked back normally if an attack roll against them results in doubles on the dice--but they are also knocked back (if not already) by any attack that deals 3 or more damage. Note that the knock back is based on damage dealt, not damage taken; powers and effects that reduce damage taken can’t protect you from the effects of space terrain!
Guardians of the Globe (Team Ability)
When a member of this team rolls doubles on the dice on a successful attack roll, the target is not knocked back. The attack deals damage normally. If the target has zero or one action token after the attack has been resolved, give the target an action token.
So auto knock back (reguardless of damage reducing powers) and Incap when doubles are rolled.:cool: I LIKE IT!!!Hold on there Sparky. This is going to be a serious timing issue that only Hair10 can rule on offically. The key is when does the Space Terrain and the Team Ability check for knockback.
Doubles are rolled on the dice; Space Terrain checks here and says the fig is getting knocked back, I'm good and I turn off.
Then the TA checks for knockback and says, ok you stay put and take a token.
End result, the figure is not knocked back.
Doubles are rolled on the dice; the TA checks for knockback and says, ok you stay put and take a token.
Space Terrain checks here and says, you are not moving, I turn on and knock you back.
End result, the figure is knocked back.
Or it may come down to the rule of thumb can't trumps can. The GG TA states, "target is not knocked back". Period, end of discussion. The fig does not move due to any other game effect.
Question for our esteemed Captian... Does this new rule for deep space knock back figures with charge? I would think no.You are correct. Characters with Charge or have special rules associated with them that ignore knockback will never suffer knockback. Whether the knockback is triggered from rolling doubles, a BFC like Low Gravity, or a terrain rule.
So COLOSSAL figs ignore Skrull and Danger Girl TA'S? Immunity to clevage and Daisy Dukes is a BAD THING!:cross-eye .All Colossal figs ignore Shape Change, the Skrull TA, and the Danger Girl TA. They do not ignore the effects generated from Feats that have Shape Change as a prerequisite. The Colossal figures are Sentinel, Sinestro Construct, Galactus, Spectre, Dark Phoenix, and Jean Grey Phoenix.
Another Question for "Cappy... Will we be able to T-bolt to the GG TA at Dreamland?Yes. The Team Ability does not state that it cannot be copied by Wild Cards. So you can TBolt to Guardians of the Globe Team Ability.

You were headed for rep-ville. Drooping Island knockers is definitely funny.
Then you had to make it personal.
Only Captain Stubing gets to say that! EVER!!!!! Only because it happened in real life and he's just quoting a one-time event that will never be seen again (on purpose) in our lifetimes.
Ask how Wolverine got treated the last time we played. The correct answer was: Mysterio + Team created a hologram of Ashton Kutcher next to Wolvie and he said: YOU GOT PUNK'D! :laugh:
Mysterio owns. Until someone beats Mysterio (and I'm playing said Mysterio) you're just playing a robot Mysterio and it doesn't count.
And you can definitely not say that one thing you said (so heinous, much like Lord Voldermort's name) you can't repeat it out loud.

I disagree that Incap on the Sentinel is bad. Incap is a great power for a capture type team. And what does the Sentinel excell at doing? Capturing Mutants of course. Just like Barrier is generally thought to be useless so is Incap. I think both powers used to be useless, but now with all of these POWERFULL feat card s coming out and those allready out, this is no longer the case. Incap is the best attack to use on a target with Mystics and/or a target using protected. Think about it!

TITS: Revenge. Outwitting his Superman's imperviousness, TKing SoD next to him, picking up an Electric Pole, rolling a critical hit, smashing him with close combat expert, and having him bounce off a semi on his way back for a total of 4 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 10 points of damage. My best attack EVER!

Thank you so much for testing the suckas out. The Captain does have a really good team. I like it. The only thing that eludes me is to see how something along those lines does against a KCFlash.
Because you know some punkazzbatches are going to play them. Not TITS!
People haven't learned that you aren't going to win a WW with a KCFlash. Close? Maybe. But not First Place.
Again, my profound thanks! Ain't no better players to test teams than people that can take the heat in Vegas! ;)
hey sorry for not making it. I called Lucky and gave him my story: The Mr.s had the car and she's about as consistant with time as KFC is to chicken. Oi vey.
I was going to run a Flash team. I wanted to try out Lucky's version, which runs more figures than I'm used to and my version (Fortitude is NECESSARY on Flash!!!! Flash, Ambush Bug, THATS IT!)
Well, Bubblehead. I hope you do well in Texas, hopefully, you got something out of Thursday!

Thor's and Silver Surfers are very good in the sealed format.
Hyperion is a great piece. However I didn't see any in the top 8. He's a wait and see.
No Visions. No Genis/Photon/Captain Marvels.
Monkeys are DA BOMB!!!! Seriously. Great Support.
Stealth is excellent in this.
Alpha Strike can lend itself to points, points, points.
I went 4-0 with:
V Silver Surfer
R Jubilee
Jane Foster Pog
Don't let anybody tell you different: You can play the Vet and hands down he's the best. He took 6 clicks and would be HSS around that map.
I was the only one to pull the Vet Surfer out of 2 cases. Seriously.
One Zombie Wolvie was pulled.
Supernova map is made for HSS hit and run.
Took down a E Surfer team. A Jack of Hearts/R Surfer team.
I got 2nd place. The final round was counted separate. So I cleared only losing the pog and Jubilee. (DUH!) Got 565 points for the Final round. Guy who won cleared his opponent in 10 minutes. How???? Did his opponent just cave in??? Not play at all??
The winners team: E Dr. Spectrum, U Binary, 2 other things.
I played him for honor since the top 2 didn't play each other, legally.
Surfer killed them, too. It wasn't funny.
However, he walked out with a brick of Supernova. I won my choice of Purple (after the winner picked) and 3 extra boosters. Winner's purple choice was Super Skrull. :confused:
So what I got/pulled today for 24.00:
R/E/V Silver Surfer
U Captain Mar-Vell
V Thor
Purple Thanos :eek:
V Super Ape
E,V Vindicator
R,V Marvel Boy/Justice
R SheHulk
R Jubilee
E Kang
V Kree
V Shi'ar Admiral
R Badoon
E Bulldozer
R Night Thrasher
R SunSpot
Sunder x2
Alpha Strike
Jane Foster pog
Damage Control Feat (Bye bye Nanobots!) :devious:
One double: R Night Thrasher
So I represented Vegas pretty well, I think. Had a great time. And the venue had FREE PIZZA!!!!!!!!!
Remember: V Silver Surfer can do it all!
Ready for WWTX!

This Week's Major Tournament:
The S-Block. 400pt Constructed. You can only use figures and cardboard from sets Seth has designed. They are:
Armor Wars
Collateral Damage
Sinister
Supernova (if Bubblhead decides to drive up up and show off Surfer ;) )
Collector's Sets
This Week's (Weak) Minor Tournament:
Grand Melee. Build a 300pt (restricted assumed) team with 3 and only 3 figures on it. All players will play on the same map. Whoever defeats the most points wins (not last man standing). No HSS, ICw/O, Hawkeye, Lockjaw unless you buy them from the store day off. Reference this strategy:
http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2293736#post2293736
Dreamland's Marquee:
The Marquee has been rescheduled for Thursday 11/30. DO NOT go by what the main WizKids site says. I cannot change the tournament to that day. I will be at GenCon SoCal on the 16th. After talking with John Tuesdays are no good for us (too many little kids there).
Bad6423 will be running a tournament for me on the 16th with Sinister prizes. He will get to set all the parameters. Break out your Supermen and put away your Laser Turrets.

So I was reading all of the carboard that has been posted for Supernova, and something interesting caught my eye.
Meteorite
Heavy Object. Continual.
When this object is used in a successful close combat attack, roll one six-sided die and subtract 2 from the result, minimum result 1. Add the result to the attacker’s unmodified damage value for the attack. The damage dealt can’t otherwise be modified.
I annticipate the third sentence to be errated to:
Add the result to the attacker’s unmodified damage value for the attack to determine damage dealt.
This way, it won't be affected by The Rule of Three or BFCs like PDF or Isolation.
However, the last sentence has some very interesting implications.
The damage dealt can’t otherwise be modified.
This translates to you cannot modify the figure's base damage value with effects like ICw/O or Perplex when using this object. But the key phrase is damage dealt, and not damage value.
This would then mean that the powers IMP, INV, and TG would not reduce the damage dealt from this attack!
I love having a background in Magic and being a Rules Lawyer. :devious:
I miss my Rules Arbitrator. Hair10 would make this all better. :cry:

Made for pounce. The WING speed type represents the hulk leaping around but he does not have a flight stand, no soaring but all the other flying benefits. He is 173 point so you can add auto regen and pounce to make him an even 200. :)

Some WWTX news.
The Invitationals are being played on the Supernova map....only. No map choice. That's it. Yeah...........teams won't be skewed for that, huh??? :noid:
So basically , in case of Wizkids wants to get some oxygen flowing, grabbing both of their shoulders, yanking really, really hard, and pulling their collective heads out of their asses, I'm bringing two teams. The aforementioned Little Orphan Annie team and the new one that Lucky and Shield001 were kind enough to playtest out for me last night. Seeing as how I do better when I haven't played for a long time, I won't be playtesting. But I know (KNOW I TELLS YA) that you all have my back. And with that known, I can't lose.
The new team: It is and it isn't my usual flavor. In one sense I get to do what I do best. On the other hand, it puts in a mechanic I haven't used in months. So......
Strange things will be afoot at the Circle K! :laugh:
Looking forward to giving Texas my best. I hope that my ONE booster of Supernova lends me one of the big three. It's the only way (barring your opponent rolling snake eyes to start) I'm going to win. V Surfer, Thanos, or Korvac. That's it. Pull that. You're going to the Finals. If you don't. You better hope you don't run into one of those squads.
Isn't that fun?

This is for the Arms Dealer. Sick as a dog and still wants to know how the guys did.
First Place - Mike:
An Overfeated Laz Pitted Steel.
This allowed the Muscle to play KC Flash and Hypersonic his way to victory. Firelord may have had something to do with that as well.
Second Place - Unsung Hero:
KC Alloy
Smallball team underneath the Giant that allowed no one to base. A Taunted Batman invited enemies to come and say hi to Alloy.
Third Place - Tim:
A Valinus Wild Card Abuse Team that the Captain built for him last second.
Sue Storm, Mystic, Bat Enemey w/ 12 AV. Pretty standard stuff. However, the Former Plucky Comic Relief of Team Vegas only played it to a 3rd place finish. A Disbanded had something to do with that.
Fourth Place - Quiet Storm:
An Experienced Yellowjacket.
Paying no attention to the Giant, an Invincible balance build underneath Dr. Pym. Bad dice rolls and a craving for nicotine hurt in the end.
Fifth Place - Jack:
A Colossal Boy.
Teamed up with an all X-men theme team, Jeanie couldn't service the Giant with enough clicks to stay in the game.

I rolled "3" so many times today that an Extraordinary Day would have REALLY hurt. You're probably wondering what could have been worse than an 0-3 day, but I'm telling you there is.

Hey Guys.
Here are the pictures I took at GenCon this past weekend.
GenCon Pictures (http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/rpw78/album?.dir=7b4bscd&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/rpw78/my_photos)
Ended up 22nd in the Dreamblade 10K. That netted me a cool $100. Missed out on the Top 16 due to lousey tie-breakers. Or the fact that I went 4-3. If my dice behaved I would have made Top 16 and earned $250.
It was a good con. Not the greatest con ever, or my most successful ever, but a good trip none the less. The best part were the porn stars at the Spoils booth. I swear I've seen them naked on the internet before.
Now off to Dallas, and then to Seattle.

Yes. 300 point unrestricted. All figures must have Avengers or JLA team ability. The feat Thunderbolts is not allowed. Prizes for this event: the LE figure Lester
Besides the feat restriction, I'm sure all the other restrictions apply as well.
BTW, if you are looking for a Zombie pull from Supernova, Don pulled Colonel America last weekend, so your odds of pulling one from another Kools booster are probably quite low considering the 1 zombie/100 booster (400 pieces) distribution. :rolleyes:

Here is a suggestion for a Jim scenario... 500 pts. one character must be over 150 pts and all attack dice rolls that result in 3's are critical hits that result in doubled knockback! What do you think guys?:noid:

I've been thinking about Unsung's suggestion more. To keep it within existing parameters of the game, how about no BFCs except that Madness and Extraordinary Day are in effect on all boards? I like the 500 pt team. I probably would have said at least one fig is 200+, but that may be too restrictive for some, so 150+ would be fine. ;)

Unless you want SuperSkrull really really bad.

What do you guys think...:rolleyes: A guy has offered to trade me Super Skrull for Superman Robot. I have one to trade, but wanted to know what you guys thought?Not unless you are getting a hand job with the deal!
Robo Supes is still going for at least $25 online. The best Seth Unique caps out at $15 after the buzz from the set has settled. Most go for $8-10. This drop in price happend when they went to 16 uniques per case, up from 12, in Armor Wars. And Super Skrull is not going to be the most expensive unique from Supernova.
Bottom line Robo Supes will hold its value over time, Super Skrull will not.
As a litmus test, do a search for the Dark Knight Detective Batman and see what it is going for. It was the first figure only available by buying a subscription. Then search prices for 2nd tier uniques from Seth sets, Mystique, Owlman, etc.
I can tell you I just sold an Owlman on eBay for $5.

All Attack Rolls that result in exactly 1 under the Target Number needed to hit the target result in a Critical Hit. This Critical Hit is not affected by Madness.
Looks like somebody has a case of the one-unders. :cheeky:
I've done several scenarios over the years that alter the to-hit and Critical Hit/Miss rules. We can hammer it out this Thursday.

What figures are "Big" and what figures are "Colossal"? Can a Sinestro construct carry an adjacent teammate because he has the flying symbol?Big Figures were Sentinel and Sinestro Construct. Then when Galactus and such they made a new catagory "Colossal". When the Icons (maybe the Universe) rulebook came out they erratted it and grouped them all in one catagory.
Now there is no catagory "Big" for a figure. A Colossal figure is one with the Fist for the Damage Symbol instead of the Starburst. The Colossal Figures are:
Sentinel
Sinestro Construct
Dark Phoenix
Jean Grey Phoenix
Galactus
Spectre
Yes Sinestro (and Sentinel) can carry figures because they are flyers.

I live in the desert. Why is it so f'in cold here!?!
52...The best comic you are NOT reading!
Blades Mysterio for 6 is set for a repeat performance in December.
I did it. I bought product from Supernova. I needed to get over the minimum limit on Cardagora. So I broke down and bought 1 copy of all the cardboard from Supernova. It was either that or a Vet Hyperion. But you guys don't need me to have another HSS Brick.
Vet Hyperion on Cardagora for $12.50.
I'm out of soda, I'll be right back...
...I'm back. Let's do this. LEEEEE-ROOY JENKINS!!!
Have you guys noticed the eBay button at the bottom of all my posts now? (under the sig, on the right side, near the Quote button) You guys will get great deals on shipping.
Did you know: It only costs $2.50 to mail a letter to Chile. It will get there in 4-7 days.
Do you see how many posts Unsung Hero has now. We've unleashed a monster. Now all we need is Jack on the Realms, he is the last one.
What does Jack do...during everyday life...like right now what is he doing?
So when are we all getting together to play Killer Bunnies with Quiet Storm?
Does anybody ever want to get together to play something other than Clix?
Mike is offically "The Kevin" of Funhogs.

Can someone explain to me why Surfer and Thanos are AEs when Drax is in the same set??? And if you have not been reading anihilation, I think you shold read it before answering.Because this set is based off of the '70s and '80s storylines. The next Marvel set may be (rumor mill) based off of Civil War and Anihilation.
Now I throw it to Unsung Hero for in depth explaination of said storylines and the AE pairing.
Shield001
11/30/2006, 15:35
oh that is true, I just thought this set was supposed to have anihilation in it, I mean they could have given V drax thanos AE base, jsut give thanos a 2 color base, that would be cool, one fig with 2 different AEs:laugh: .
or give RE surfer the AE base and V drax the AE base, granted that makes RE surfer and V drax AEs but they arent friends are they, though they both hate the big T apparently.
I await the Thanos Surfer AE explination then.
oh and good luck to you guys battleing it out for King Hype, that is the prize tonight right, of course if someone pulls zombie Wolvie and gives it to lucky they may find that they have won the tourney and said king hype :laugh: unless the marquee was last week.
unsung hero
12/01/2006, 01:53
Okay I guess that was my que to try and answer Luckys reply to Sheild001's question. This set is supposed to have Ahinillation figs in it. Drax (V) is the Drax from Ahinillation (hence the blades clicks for the new knives he has been carrying). Nova(V) is also from same said comic. The AE paring in this set (IMHO) is supposed to be from the Infinity Gauntlet serries from the 90's. Surfer actually ripped the gauntlet of off Thanos when Captian America distracted him. A couple of people on this site have posted that Thanos should have been an REV. The rookie should have had Drax the Destroyer as his AE. The Experienced should have Adam Warlock as an AE (which would have required them to print one for this set). And Veteran should have Surfer as his AE. That is my (and several other Joes on this site) opinion.

Here is the thread Unsung Hero is referencing:
Masterminding Earthquakes (http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?t=184207)
For those who read the thread, Hari10 and Normalview answered the questions posted in the thread correctly.
In a nutshell, you can Mastermind the damage dealt from Earthquake.
However, another question and point was brought up. It dealt with First Turn Immunity (FTI). Here is the offical wording of FTI from the Heroclix Comprehensive Tournament Rules:
Section 1.12 First-Turn Immunity
A character, which is still in its original starting position on the map, may not be attacked or damaged, except by friendly characters, until after each player has completed his or her first turn.
For those of you who don't have a background in Magic this describes three game situations.
1. A character cannot be attacked on the first turn. We knew this. It can, however, be targeted by something other than an attack by the opponent (i.e. Outwit). This even applies if the character did something but did not move (i.e. put up a Barrier or Smoke Cloud).
2. The character can be attacked or damaged by a firendly character. This applies to Pulse Wave or EE Splash Damage, or other game effects. And leaves room open for future mechanics.
3. A character cannot be damaged, period, if it still occupies its original starting position. This covers damage not dealt through an attack. That would be Earthquake damage, Proximity Mines damage, and Mystic damage.
That means if an Earthquake pops while you still have FTI, you DO NOT take damage. Also, if Proximity mines go off you DO NOT take damage. (Tell Tyler I apologize). And finally, if your opponent moves a Mystic within your range on his first turn, and you stand still and attack it while you still have FTI, you DO NOT take Mystic damage.
The Earthquake is done for the rest of the game and the Mines are removed from the game.
As Mr. Rogers said, we learn something new everyday.

Jeeze guys. Hold your horses. If you can't make it then sometimes you just have to wait to get the info. :disappoin
Well that's long enough. Here is a quick synopsis of the pulls:
The Arms Dealer pulled a Zombie Spider-Man from his brick. Not the 3 packs for the tourney.
Jack pulled a Vet Surfer.
No Vet Hyperions, Vet Thors, or Korvac's for the torueny.
I pulled a Thanos.
I spent $24 on the boosters, and then sold all of the figs for a total of $38...Tits.
I really don't remember much else. Didn't care about the non rares and such.
The Muscle ended up winning going 4-0. Jack of Hearts and Pulse Wave helped. He took King Hyperion. Mark (yes old, theater Mark) came in second. Took out Unsung Hero in the final round to win.
As far as other pulls and game reports, you have to wait for the others to post.

12/7:
A Case of the 1-Unders
500pt unres. BFCs Yes. Highlander Yes.
Special Rule: If you roll an attack roll that is exactly 1 under the Target Nubmer to hit a character, that attack roll counts as a Critical Hit. This Speical Rule is not affected by Madness.
NOTE: There is no minimum point value for any character as previously discussed.
12/14
Faction Wars
500pt unres. BFCs Yes. No ATAs Thunderbolts & Alpha Flight. Highlander for named characters only.
Each figure on your team must have the same Team Symbol. Comic accurate theme teams will be allowed. They have to be cleared with the judge prior to the tournament.
Now the question that has to be asked is, will Mysterio be making a guest appearence???
If he is man enough to, my HoM Wolverine + Protected (68pts) challenges Vet Mysterio (68pts) to a one-on-one battle. How 'bout it Bubblehead. Mono-y-mono with no assistance of any kind from other figures on our teams. And I think we all know what the end result of that will be...

He is a little nugget to think about. Vet Mysterio has 6 clicks of health. Wolverine has 6 claws. Coincidence? I think not.

Per the RA at Texas.......
PC, outwit, Perplex, and TK(unless you're targeting someone, then it's a ranged attack) are NOT limited to the half rule.
Ranged attacks only. INcluding Pulsewave, HSS, and RS.
If you're attacking a Soaring figure from range, you're doing so at 1/4 range effectiveness.
It's a close combat map.

Basically Space Terrain has no effect on any 10 range Power like Outwit, PC, TK, etc. Treat the situation as if the character was in regular Clear Terrain on a standard Outdoor Map.
Hey Bubblehead. When you try to answer someone's question in this thread, how about answering what he actually asked. Novel idea huh. I can see why you are no longer a judge. ;)
In reality that was me chaneling Wolverine, directing that tone at you, seeing you as Mysterio.

I have an early Christmas present for everyone this Thursday. The Mother of Team Vegas has sent some home baked goodies from Florida for you guys. They were literally labeled "for the Guys". This was done so I wouldn't keep them for myself. Your only chnace to get them is this Thursday. If they go back home with me, you will never see them again.
Speaking of Thursday, I just built my team. All I can say is SICK! I have no Feats on the team, and all of the figures are retired.
Bring it on new figures. You think you are bricks, the only brick you are going to see is the one I smash over your head. SUCK IT!
~The Game
I'm back TV.
My computer had a nasty virus that wiped all my media. Thankfully I had like half my MP3's downloaded on various devices. I'm looking forward to a good game tommorrow. (BINARY IS COMING!)
This week has been decent all and all and I am starting to adjust to the colder climate. I guess it's all just a part of the overall adjustment of my new profession. I'll see everyone tommorrow.

OMG. Good evening Mr Muscle. Regarding Exp Mantis, no go. Do have the Vet 'Dozer tho and will bring that tomorrow. If you want, I can attempt to trade here on Realms for the Mantis. LMK.
It's fine Jimbo. Maybe you can swap out a skrull generic or something. I'm crazy about those guys.
If I can get enough skrulls, I'll bring back the skrull army.

Arms Dealer. If you see anyone dealing in Dreamblade figures, or maybe even Star Wars Minis let me know. I need a few things and have some tradable figs. Plus there is always cash!
Also, I finally finsished editing my Thanksgiving Photos and got them all uploaded. 56K is not condusive to uploading pictures. Now you can finally see who Ro-gan is, that Cowboy fan who popped in on our thread a few pages back.

It's never too early to start planning for the Cons next year. In fact, it's probably better so you can set your travel plans. Below is a schedule of all the major Cons throughout the year and a few smaller ones close to Vegas.
As we all know, the HeroClix Invitationals are heald at each Wizard World. The other Cons may have HeroClix tournaments, but nothing as big as the Invitationals. WizKids attends some, but not all. For instance they were not at GenCon SoCal this year.
For Dreamblade, the 50K Championships are at GenCon Indy. I bet most of the remaining Cons will have at least a 10K. There was one at DragonCon this year, and the next one is scheduled for NY Comic Con in Feburary.
As for other games...well you guys don't play other games. I hear the National Championships of Killer Bunnies will be at Indy this year. :)
Wizard World LA
March: 3/16-3/18
GAMA
April: 4/23-4/26
Wizard World Philly
June: 6/15-6/17
PhoenixCon
June: 6/14-6/17
Origins
July: 7/5-7/8
San Diego Comic-Con
July: 7/25-7/29
Wizard World Chicago
August: 8/9-8/12
GenCon Indy
August: 8/16-8/19
DragonCon
August: 8/31-9/3
Wizard World Texas
November: 11/2-11/4
GenCon SoCal
Nov/Dec
I'm in for WWLA this year.
The porn thankfully was re-coded in the psp friendly mp4 format, which thankfully, remained untouched.

I'm probably going to SD Comicon. :)
I want to congratulate Big Jimbo on a job well done tonight. He kicked ### and though technically he got third on a venue rule, he won on points. Kudos to Unsung Hero for stepping up and recognizing Jim and generously donating his LE to him. The Jim tournament was a success.

Me= Defenders. But different than you are playing Justin as I don't own a Hyperion (V)! I wish my Skymax (LE) would come in Before thursday!

Watching your team sucks bizzalls against a crappy Cardinals team: NOT TITS!
Losing at a local tournament to a person that has to use a KC Flash team vs your Despero team.....Despero at full health, KCFlash on his last click and him winning on points with feats..... NOT TITS
However,
Trading a Battlestar Galactica card for LE Val-Or a.k.a LE Moloid....TITS!
Buying LE Victor Creed for 16.00. DD TITS! And their on a Playboy model!

Has anyone heard the if you say, T-bolt to defenders you can share def with other defenders, even though all T-bolts doeas is change the TA not the Team symbol.
I heard someone say that was the official ruleing, but I never heard that before.

There is a thread about it in here somewhere. With a T-bolts heading and I think it's under the rules questions section. I"m quite sure the answer is yes. I know the wording has changed, but it is still allowed.

Not until I see an entry in the Errata or FAQ saying you can do this. I read (one of) the threads on this topic and the judges in there were answering the questions wrong. Not just about TBolts, but about other issues as well.
I realize the actual wording of Thunderbolts says "team ability" and not "team symbol". Doesn't matter in this case. All Team Abilities key off of having the same Team Symbol. What confuses the issue is WizKids inconsistency with the phrases "team ability" and "team symbol". In this case, the intent, and my interpertation, is that the effects are keying off of the Team Symbols.
Ant-Man cannot share his defense with Hyperion. Don't ask this, don't argue this point.
All right, I'm going to suck it up and take the bus to Dreamland next week. If the Wizkids site is correct. 300 pt constructed. I HAVE to go. And most of you already know what I'm going to run. I just hope ebay will send me the appropriate tool to make the team work better. ON TIME.
And January looks to be about the same, 300, 400 pt teams. I definately have some ideas. It's bus time.

12/12/2006, 00:44
If the Wizkids site is correct. 300 pt constructed
This is incorrect. As a member of TEAM VEGAS, I must give you the correct information: Faction Wars- 500 pts. All characters must have the same team symbol. Comic correct "Theme Teams" must be cleared by Lucky before you show up.
You guys are freinds right? PM or call him before then.
It's bus time.
Been there Dude, many times! Well worth the trip!

Well, I knew this weeks was faction wars, it says next week is 300 pt constructed.
After reading back on my post it makes it sound like I thought this week was the 300 pt. oops
I'll be able to make it next week if this is right. As I'll actually have a team to run.

Thats what I thought, but every body else was saying it was different yet could not show me an official WK ruleing. I think its just a case of people wanting it to be one way so they just say it, and eventually if enough people say it, then it mus t be true right.
so I want everyone to repeat after me:
Seth will keep up with the decent attack/damage values we saw in Supernova with Origins.
