300 points

Thanos
Nightwing (V)
Black Panther (R)
Vulture (R)

You might think this is an average team, but here is why I like it:

1) Thanos is used as a carrier of Nightwing - This surprises the opposition who expected Vulture to shuttle Thanos around. Nightwing is always placed in hindering terrain (Batman team) and used to block LOS to Thanos.

2) Nightwing uses his outwit, or double incapacitate, or 3 damage (not to mention his attack of 10) to hurt the enemy. If your opposition wants to go b2b with Nightwing (but not Thanos), then rub your hands with glee. Outwit any defence they have, use Nightwings leap/climb to get away, then use Thanos to blast them. Alternatively, if they move the attacker into b2b with both N and T, you can open a full can of whoop ### on them. You can always retreat to a safer position with N and T then push Thanos a couple of time till his 'fat' click.

3) If the battle is on for young and old, you still have Vulture to fly up BP and outwit something else. Again, use BP's stealth to hide Vulture.

huh, and here i am only calling my teams undefeated if they have been in AT LEAST more than ten battles...

but i think my usuall team would defeat that, it is undefeated of 20 battles, I'll put it up later

**EDIT**
the main flaw though is this would wor really well in an inside map, but no so well in an outside map, becasue IIRC those on buildings can ignore terrain effects on those on the ground, so you set up a team of shooters on the buildings and they can hammer thanos, then bring in a heavy hitter to mop up.

If you're committed to this theme of taxiing Nightwing around, why not taxi him with V- Dr. Doom? That way Doom can perplex up Nightwing's damage or AV if necessary. Drop the Vulture and Panther and replace them with a Hydra and Shield character and Doom becomes a three-way boosting machine.

Unfortunately, your army is way overcosted for what it does. Your lack of options makes you really susceptible to barrier and mind control teams.

questions...

1.) how does nightwing block LoS if he's in hindering unless you option off bat-team, and lose nightwings outwit? and then he;s just a siting duck... it's not like you couldn't just move over one square to get a LoS on Thanos.

2.) where's a medic for gods sakes? Black panther takes a click and no outwit, nightwing takes 2 and no outwit, neither have "stellar" defences or ANY type of damage reduction what so ever.

3.) why use such lame-o support chars? Rookie invisible girl can tag along with thanos, cause grayson is a PUD after 2 hits.. for his cost alone you can get a medic, sue, AND another support figure.... thatway when your panther gets hit for 2 from some rookie wolverine, you're not stuck with a complete pud.

that's about my comments, other than you should give it more time before you call a team "undefeated" up until i win with a team 5 in a row, it's called luck.

BTW my 300 point marvel team is 12-0 now, and would more than likely rip thanos to shreds.:eek:

-R:rolleyes:

Undefeated? Against who? You forget, Supermans team ability can see through stealth. With someone like that and with range, you're nightwing is gone. Use Thanos to taxi Nightwing? You nuts?! I wouls be laughing my head off if i saw that. The great powerfull Thanos not being used to attack but to taxi. I say you just wasted a turn. I think you should playtest your team more and with more experienced players.
