looks good save, I would down grade booster to EXP free taxi and up Catwomen to a vet, my fav, dc piece.

I like WFUnDina's idea, if those points work, that's a good swap. Otherwise, it's a nice looking, pretty well rounded team.

This is a pretty good all around team.

However, for an all DC team entitled BeatStick, you might want to put another close combat fig on the team. ;)

I would also downgrade Booster Gold to the exp level. You'll probably use him as a taxi for the most part, only mixing it up if he has to. So you're not gaining much by using the Vet, except for SuperStrength, which is nice, if there's an object around, but ....
I think you could use the Exp and keep the points. If he gets into combat, he still does 2 damage, and doesn't have to spend a turn picking up an object.

You might also want to drop Huntress altogether. With your good flyers, you could put another close combat guy on your team, and fly them both into pound someone. And Booster, Manbat and Hawkman are pretty durable figures, so you're not likely to lose them with one or even two hits.

With that kind of mobility, you don't necessarily need a ranged figure. Just have someone fly up Bane to pound your opponent for 5. :)

Since you're using DC (only, I presume), take a look at the following pieces:

Exp Aquaman (good brawler + leadership + free move)
Exp or Vet Nightwing (outwit, 3 damage, good range)
Exp Hawkman (gets a click of close combat expert. have him charge someone carrying bane. hawkman hits for 2, bane hits for 5. push hawkman next turn and hit for 4. watch your opponents figure head for the sidelines).

If you absolutely want a ranged combat only fig, look at T.O. Morrow (exp or vet, or even better, LE)

Also often overlooked, Arcane, Soloman Grundy and SwampThing. They're a bit expensive, but worth the cost as close combat beat sticks.

I could see Grundy as he carries his own beatstick.:D

well, if you take out bane and then do a couple clicks each to catwoman and medic and huntress the game is essencially over. and all of the above can happen in two turns of action in a game. especially cuz those figs i mention are also your primary attackers (except the medic) so will be easy to hit tactically.

after that either the attack values would be too small or the damage not enough to get through an impervious.....and the game would be over.
