[Wolverine_lor]

Come on someone give me some input or is this team a lost cause?

[NeoFascist]

With it's lack of taxi, medics, and probability control, I think it hasn't a chance in a tournament. Which isn't a bad thing, because it has a theme. I'm taking an all JLA team I am sure will die, but I love the Flash, so I'm taking him.

One thing I would say, is since it doesn't have much a chance, I would remove Nightcrawler, who is more a Swashbuckler than a ninja, and add another more themed character.

[Kaitouace]

Stick in a Shadowcat. She WAS a ninja for a time and you get a very important taxi. Psylocke is another good choice (trained by the Hand, Lady Mandarin, etc.) Those two should improve things if only a bit.

I thought that U Wolvie was 64 pts.

Maybe I am wrong...

See the thing is i dont really need any taxis i have mandarin which is going to carry taskmaster, then wolvie is going to move up as well then move the ninjas up as well. The thing is the team is supposed to stay and let people come to it. every figure has stealth but mandarin but he has a 12 range with outwit so.... i dont need to move around any see my point :) the only person i will move around is nc which dont need a taxi :)

[Wolverine_lor]

OK sorry wolvie is 64pts and i dont think the team needs a taxi the only char that will really move after the first move is nightcrawler the rest will wait and let clix come to them. here is the team

E=Taskmaster 58pts
V=Mandarin 141pts
U=Wolverine 64pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
U=Nightcrawler 83pts

394pts

[NeoFascist]

Well, if anyone who plays against you has any sense, they won't come to you, and they'll just murder Mandarin and Nightcrawler and anyone else who strays out of hidden terrain. And since you'll initally be using Mandarin as a taxi, they won't have too terrible a time doing it.

[Marvelmaster11]

technically nightcrawler isn't a ninja, he's european, but i get what you mean...;)

[Wolverine_lor]

How will they murder mandarin and nighcrawler without coming to me? He has a 12 range with outwit? and i am sure i wont just make him be right out in the open

[jonkga]

Remember that stealth is not foolproof. Facing a team with outwit and/or the supes team ability (especially with some wildcards thrown in), and your team would be decimated at range. Sure Mandarin has range, but his outwit only works to a range of 10, and he only can outwit one thing a turn.

I've had success with stealth and BCF, but not with a team quite so unbalanced with them.

[Spookythecat]

I agree. I'd drop Nightcrawler, who's not really a ninja, and put in Psylocke (Who'll make your hand Ninjas much more effective) and either Elektra (IC) either (V) or (U)(remember, she knows Ninja magic) if you got her, or Silver Samurai. Except that Samurai (Except that Samurai's hate ninja's, so...)

Nightcrawler's not a bad piece, but he does need the proper support. Right now you've got an 83 point character who's best use is to kill 15 points of enemy medics... This isn't great use of points, I hate to say.

These are both bigger damage characters than Nightcrawler, and their B/C/F attacks combine really well with Mandarin's mind control. MC the opponents big gun into base contact with these two, and hack away.

Wolverine and Taskmaster together are truly dangerous, though. They'll never miss, AND their useful even deep in their dials, with regenerate and outwit.

[NeoFascist]

Well, you'll be using Mandarin on your first turn as a taxi, you said, and if you even more him up at all, and do not keep him surrounding by blocking terrain, a 10-moving taxi and a 10-range RCE fig will easily be able to begin plinking away at him. Long range doesn't matter so much when taxis are in use.

[Wolverine_lor]

When i said taxi him up i am going to place the tokens so they will be infront of him and lay the clix i was taxieing in that slot and the clix i will be carring will have stealth so that means he can hit him........

So does this team sound better sound better?

E=Taskmaster 58pts
V=Mandarin 141pts
U=Wolverine 64pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
U=Electra 36pts
R=Psylocke 45pts

That is 392points would it better if took out Electra and put in a E=black panther he looks like a ninja and i kinda like one.... hehe

[hisshers]

I still think Shadowcat would help. Despite what anyone says, Taxis are always good. She was a ninja, she flies, and has phasing. Hullo?

[Wolverine_lor]

Here is the new addition i think it is pretty solid now with psylocke behind all the ninja and mandarin it can make very very very good use of her enhancement :) I also added shadowcat she will help with taxi power.

E=Taskmaster 58pts
V=Mandarin 141pts
U=Wolverine 64pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks) 16pts
V=Hand ninja (Nunchucks)16pts
R=Shadowcat 28pts
R=Psylocke 45pts

400pts right on the nose
