what characters should i use with a OWAW Superman?
In a 300 pt game? Playing DC only?
Outwit really kills him so probably somebody who can Outwit your opponent's Outwit ... jeez, just gotta hope they don't have two Outwit figures cuz then they can Outwit the Outwit of their Outwit .... gotta love DC.

yeah....so whats a good fig that has outwit, and that i could play with OWAW superman?
Since in a 300 pt. battle vet. nightwing would be best so why not go for exp. 53 pts. for outwit range of 8.thats not bad.

No, you just want to stay out of outwit's range. And you want as many figures as possible that include a taxi. The best 300 point OWAW Superman team is:
1xRookie Booster Gold
2xRookie Huntress
1xOWAW Superman
Booster Gold taxis superman who hits and then runs far enough away not to get outwit. The huntresses use leap climb to get in the way of your opponent and prevent them from hunting down Supes. And with this team, you even take advantage of Supes' leadership.
At 300 points, he's not as useful, but basically, you want a Batman to hide-behind (I like Robin for Smoke Cloud) a Harley for perplex (which is added value in a HSS fllying nightmare) and a Medic or two, depending on the points.
At 400 points, he is incredible. Vet Nightwing, Booster Gold, Harley, and 2 medics. Undefeated:
OWAW Superman 236
Nightwing V 72
Harley Quinn R 27
Booster Gold R 28
Checkmate Medic E 17
Checkmate Medic V 19

Outwit has a range of 10 regardless, check the PAC.
OWaW Superman should be unstoppable as long as he manages to stay out of Outwit's range. With that Hypersonic Speed he could zoom in, make a ranged attack then fly out of range again.
Or...
Stay in Soaring mode, then move to Hover and finish in Soaring; make your Hypersonic attacks that way. The distance for an attacking figure is pretty much doubled when attempting an attack on a soaring character.
Or if you like the aggressive approach, taxi in your Outwitter and your OWaW Supes, outwit their Outwit so they can't use it their next turn, then let supes charge in with an object to do some hefty damage. Or even keep a perplexer nearby to up the damage a bit.

Superman can't just keep attacking, after the push, he's got to stop and rest.

I've had good luck with my OWAW supes 236pts and a U (black costume) wolverine 64pts thats 300 exactally wolverine can hit ANYONE with a 12 attack and tons of BCF plus he is really heavy on regen. and has a lot less use for a medic. Wolvie also starts with stealth but that goes into charge once hes takes two or so cliks. toughness is always helpful, Wolvies only drawback is that he has battly fury after a few cliks. But you can definatly take care of larger teams when you use this team conservatively. Try to single out opponents, and leave wolvie next to them to cut them down, while supes runs interference taking sots at any one close enough to range attack wolverine.
One thing to keep in mind, you cannot taxi someone and make a shot-on-the-run with HSS.

OWAW Supes has HSS. This is nice becuse you can go from soaring down to make a ranged attack, then back into soaring (when outdoors). If indoors. fly between room to room and shoot inbetween. Supes and HSS go together well.
