Checkmate! (DC spoiler warning)

[pupulesurfer]

So I was thinking of coming up with Checkmate teams at 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 points. Here are the figs I have access to and would like to use only these figures.

Deadshot - 89
Checkmate Pawn White & Black - 19 / 25
Checkmate Knight White & Black - 29 / 35
Pawn 502 - 44
Mademoiselle Marie - 73
Fire & Ice - 131
Red Arrow - 73

Here are the teams, please offer up any suggestions to make them better or let me know if they are good as is and if at all possible, please use only the above figures! Thanks!

200

why the dual cost on the Pawns?

[michiganj24]

Not a dual cost but what its what he did instead of writing out Checkmate Black and White
why the dual cost on the Pawns?

[pupulesurfer]

That is correct, I was a little lazy and didn't want to write separate lines for white and black so the point values are respective to the listing - white first then black

[pupulesurfer]

Any more help out there?

Anybody...Bueller?

[pupulesurfer]

Anybody want to comment, I just want some feedback on the teams please!

I don't like the Pawns, except for 502. Roy Harper LE is a really nice addition too.

I also like Amanda Waller. That outwit is handy.

[pupulesurfer]

Ya, I'm not too keen on the pawns either - they are just filler in general. If I could get my hands on the Harper LE I would use him. For whatever reason I've had low success with Waller but I could try her out again.

The 200 team was awesome and it almost took down Ultimate Thor and Nurse team - White Knight grabbed Mjolnir but was KOed the next turn :(

The 400 point one also rocks! It has done very well and is quite versatile. It has lost once in 4 games thus far!

it depends on your strategy, but, for me, ranged combat is money on checkmate, so

100:
black knight x 2 70
white knight 29

2 potencial 5 damage troops, and if u need it, you just push the white one and you get outwit, try not to get based, :P

200 points

mademoiselle 73
deadshot 89
enhancement pawn 29

again, is the same strategy, but with more potent characters, also, if deadshoot damages a figure and mademoiselle kills it, you got a token, wich in 200 points format a 4 free damaga is a huge advantage.

300 and so, ill try to play like this, if you like you might add some 502 or more enhancement,/outwit, but ill stick to this strategy.

just my 2 cents

[pupulesurfer]

Good points - definitely something to consider!
