This week Steve and Gudda talk with special guest Norm Barth (NBperp) about Clixathon, Origins, Gen-Con, Heroclix Stories, Grinders and more! Listen Up!

And not to disappoint, I sound as stupid as usual!

Audio was all recorded on my end...so there may be some low and high peaks...sorry.

Can't wait to listen. So I won't.

Great Cast guys.

I really enjoyed this one. I always enjoy listening to norm. He is insightful and logically straightforward. Got a lot of questions answered that I had about origins and gencon. Norm I will say this though in reference to the large player bases you were mentioning. There is large one in Atlanta also. Run a clixathon there and you will break well over 100 people. The pre releases that we held years ago were around 130 participants. Typhon of course is from Atlanta so I think he could help you with that in many ways. We agree with you in reference to dragoncon and that we are happy running it ourselves. Wizkids has been asked in the past to help support us, in regard to some product for prizes and or some promotional help. We are still waiting as none has occurred as of yet. Perhaps you can help in that regard.

Thanks for the great job you always do. I look forward to seeing you at the cons.

GREAT CAST... See you at Origins!!!

KING OF THE HILLS Rocked.(Grinders sucked for waiting) I didn't wait to long! Oh thats right I kept winning...
HOF....

Sad that my questions didn't make the show, but great stuff nonetheless.

Decent show.

Ben Cheung wins Clix for Cure with NC and Metron...lol.

No questions from the official map maker about how they choose the map list for Worlds ?

Also amused that they chopped HSS option 2. That was the more interactive part of HSS and take it away. I can understand streamlining though.

Plasticity should affect HSS + Leap/Climb, making it normal breakaway rules (50/50).

Great points. I had no map comments because I know some of the reasoning behind the maps that get picked for Worlds...also that was Sean's call I believe on the maps, so it'll just be easier to ask him. We will be contacting him to try and get on the podcast soon as well.

Is that neccersery? Take the break-away part of HSS (or otherwise nerf it), sure, but I don't get the Leap/Climb hate. Unless you're Batroc, L/C doesn't have an attack component...

Double-Post

I think that, instead of straight up HSS, they should give characters like Superman, Gladiator etc. a Full movement charge that causes knockback.

I am fine with hss, they should just have to roll breakaway. I think it fixes everything and lets a lot of pieces become playable. Still keeps hss figs very powerful also.

I think of it as this way...didnt Domsday beat Superman solo? Could any Doomsday beat a Superman solo that has hss in Heroclix. No. If Doomsday engages Superman up close and is in a tussle with him, Superman shouldnt just be able to run away as if Doomsday isnt there. Superman should have to fight or try to get away (breakaway) like everyone else.

Well just let me know and I'll be happy to try and work out the timing. :-)

Will do! I'll send a PM to you...I know Seth Johnson will be on next. Thanks for listening.
