thespiderfly's LE Review Thread
Whenever I do a new LE review I'll post it here. (I'll even post non-LE reviews here because I don't mind breaking my own rules.) For the older LE reviews, I might add some commentary because my format has improved thanks to constructive (and sometimes negative) feedback.

First off, is Angelica Jones. Embarrassingly enough, I misspelled her name.

RavenProject had just announced that he was no longer going to do LE Reviews. When I envisioned people taking up the slack, I saw Superman's death and the arrival of four Supermans (though technically Steel never claimed to be Superman; he just wanted to fill the void). As such, the basic format was born. The two big problems were that people had to refer to the top to see what each section was about and that the naming convention gave the impression that I had/have a DC bias. I can assure that when it comes to playing HeroClix, I have no bias.

If I redid this review, she would do a little better. Not much, but a little.

(By the way, although I wouldn't personally use the term "suckage" to describe a figure, I was trying to give each section a distinctive voice, which is why Eradicator uses the term.)

JacinB wanted more depth, so I gave him more words.

Jean-Paul Beaubier

I'm proud of this one because as much as I wanted to fling Jean-Paul through the wringer, I was able to give him a 9/10 stars in the first section.



Of course, I got even with him in section two where I gave him -1/10 stars.

Although I prefer doing reviews of new figs, the feat cards give some figs that new-car smell.

LE Review: Jan '05 Part 1 -- The Contenders
LE Review: Jan '05 Part 2 -- 20-11
LE Review: Jan '05 Part 3 -- 10-1

There is one thing that doing this list taught me: Don't do lists. Seriously, everyone has a playing style and everyone has personal favorites, so it's hard to put pieces on a list that basically says "This is piece is better than this piece". The fact of the matter is that pieces tend to vary, but they definitely tend to vary over a fairly limited and specific range.

The below only makes sense if you read Part 3
If there is one thing I don't like (and I'm not picking on DarkCrisis, I enjoy his reviews and his sense of humor), it's the "I have a right to my opinion" or "Everyone has a right to their opinion" statements. What everyone has a right to is an informed opinion.

I'll put my review as advice: Never use a Shield Medic; always use an AIM medic.
