My FLGS is hosting a 300 point silver age no gauntlet tournament. Having just picked up some Chaos War packs, I decided to build use my new models!


CW201 Iron Man - 150
CW209 Spider-Woman - 55
AVM003A Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. - 19
CA004 S.H.I.E.L.D. Specialist - 37
CA005 S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent - 37

TOTAL: 298

Having never played with Iron Man or Spider-Woman before, I'm unsure as to how this team will play in practice. I suppose Iron Man will be my tent pole. The others all have the Shield Key Word, so I can pull off a super cannon attack (+4 range, +4 damage) but that seems unlikely to pull off during the game (and really static). SHIELD Agent (the one with Stealth) will probably follow Spider-Woman around due to the fact that they both have stealth. The other two generics will follow Ironman around, buffing him as they can.

What do you guys think?

My favorite SHIELD figs are IH203 Hulkbuster Squad Leader and IHFF005 Thunderbolt Ross. Squad Leader gives you a free SHIELD activation when Ross is around, and Ross can Leadership away his tokens. Squad Leader can do 3 damage at range with RCE, so he's not a bad second hitter.
