Welcome to another Heroclix post. This week’s previews from Wizkids was of the Hydra Agent, Richard Fisk, Red Skull, "Bucky" Captain America and Baron Strucker. All look nice.
This week's game was the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. 400 points, three team and no ATAs (thanks to Adrian over using them). One team most be made of good guys, one team must be made of bad guys and one team must be made of ugly characters. The results of the games this week will effect next week's Battle Royal. First off is my good guy team, I decided to go for a X-Force team using my new Psylocke and Siryn with Stunning Blow. The team was:
Psylocke (Giant Size X-Men) 74
Domino (Giant Size X-Men) 69
Siryn (Giant Size X-Men) 94 + Stunning Blow (Feat) 10 = 104
Wolverine (Web of Spider-Man) 105 + Protected (Feat) 8 = 113
Pete Wisdom (Mutations and Monsters) 33
=393 points and four re-rolls.
With the bad guys team I first thought of using the Hellfire Club, however Darren was using them so I then decided to use a Dark Avengers team. Sadly 400 points is a bit hard for a themed Dark Avengers team, 500 would be better. After a lot of searching I ended up with a Marauders team who were:
Gambit (Muations and Monsters) 90
Sabretooth (Vet Ultimates) 76
Mr. Sinister (Ulimates) 106
Mystique (Giant Size X-Men) 86
Vertigo (Rook Mutant Mayhem) 45
=403 points and four re-rolls.
With the Ugly team at first I was planning a Morlock team as most people will go for a Brute team. Sadly there was not enought usable Morlocks as I cannot use a Storm. I ended up good going for a Skrull team. I went for Captain Mar-Vell as I never seen him been used. The
Ms Marvel (Skrull Secret Invasion) 168
Captain Mar-Vell (Skrull Secret Invasion) 185
2x Skrull Infiltrator (Rook Supernova) 25 x 2 = 50
=403 points and two re-rolls.
Due to the number of teams I will not be listing thwem all. Only the ones I played ageist will be listed. As there was no Micheal there was only three round. On the first round it is the Good, meaning we had to use our Good teams. I was up ageist Darren who was using a X-Men team who were:
Cyclops (Giant Size X-Men) 110
Wolverine (Giant Size X-Men) 103
Psylocke (Giant Size X-Men) 74
Armor (Giant Size X-Men) 66
Havok (Vet Mutant Mayhem) 44
=397 points and for re-rolls.
I was using my X-Force team. At first this seemed a like a close game but the dice were on my side with my Super Senses rolls and I managed to win the fight. The second round was the bad. I was up ageist Adam with his Brotherhood team who were:
Rogue (Giant Size X-Men) 128
Blob (Giant Size X-Men) 76
Mystique (Giant Size X-Men) 86 + Armour Piercing (Feat) 10 = 96
Sabretooth (Giant Size X-Men) 93
=393 points and four re-rolls.
I was using my Marauders team. The map was a nightmare and I could not hit. I ended up losing the fight. The new Sabretooth from Giant Size X-Men is really nasty with 12 attack. The third and final round was the Ugly. I was up ageist Adrian who was using an un-themed Brute team who were:
Rampaging Hulk (Muations and Monsters) 128
The Thing (Secret Invasion) 100
Drax the Destroyer (Exp Supernova) 168
=396 points and no re-rolls.
I was using my Skrull team. This game was easy with my Outwits and holding up his team with a Skrull Infiltrator. I won with this team only less in the Skrull Infiltrator. I ended up at third place due to points. What will next week be? The Battle Royal. We will be slitting in to three teams. I will be using my Good team and teaming up with Michael who will use a new Good guys team as he was not hear this week. Darren will be using his Ugly team who were:
Kilowog (Green Lantern Fast Forces) 100
Tomar Re (Green Lantern Fast Forces) 75
Sinestro (Green Lantern Fast Forces) 100
Abin Sur (Green Lantern Fast Forces) 50
G'nort (Green Lantern Collectors Set) 70
=395 points and four re-rolls.
He will be teaming up with Adrian who will be using his Ugly team. And lastly due to the odd numbers, Adam will be us his Bad guys team and a second new bad guys team.
For this week's DreamClix I am doing dial designs for U-Men Soldier from the X-Men anime, Suzaku Kururugi from Code Geass, Rock Lee from Naruto, Batou from Ghost in the Shell and Japanese IS from IS: Infinite Stratos. And design ideas for Nene from Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040, Shuichi Aizawa from Death Note, Beast, Storm and Wolverine from the X-Men anime.
First off are the dial designs for U-Men Soldier, Suzaku Kururugi, Rock Lee, Batou and Japanese IS.
Next we have Nene from Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040. She is a perky and naïve hacker who is employed as an operator for the AD Police, Nene is a genius with computers. She is recruited for the Knight Sabers after she hacks Sylia's computer trying to learn more about them. She primarily works on sensor ops, battlefield communications, Electronic countermeasures (ECM) and ECCM. As the series progresses, Mackey develops a crush on her, but she sees him as a younger brother. She can use a Trait called "Hardsuit", Incapacitate, Invulnerability, Toughness and Perplex.
Hardsuit: Nana can use Leap Climb.
She should have about six clicks of health and starting values of Movement 12, Attack 9, Deffence 17, Damage 2 and Range 6. Her TA should be Knight Sabers and her Keywords should be Armour, Police and Knight Sabers.

| At the Start |
Next is Shuichi Aizawa from Death Note. Shuichi Aizawa is a member of the Kira investigation. He leaves the team after the Japanese Police cut their funding to the Kira invistigation. He also left the force because L is curious about his loyalty and when Aizawa finally admits he is annoyed by L's attitude. He returns before L's death, where he is one of the first people to suspect Light of being Kira, and helps contribute to his eventual defeat. He becomes the leader of the investigation team afterwards. He should have two special called "Police Tactics" and "Light is Kira" and Enchance.
Polica Tactics: Shuichi Aizawa gain a +2 defence bonus from hindering terrain instead of a +1.
Light is Kira: Shuichi Aizawa can use Leadership and Outwit.
He should have five clicks of health and starting values of Movement 8, Attack 10, Defence 16, Damage 2 and Range 6 with one target. His TA should be the PD one and his Keywords Detective, Kira Investigation Team and Police.
Next is the spiked minion of Mastermind from the X-Men anime. I do not think he was given a name so I will use the nick name Wolverine gave him, Hedgehog. At a very rought guess due to the powers I would say it is Spyke, but he does not look anything like he. Well anyway, he should have Charge, Leap Climb, Poison, Combat Reflexes and a trait called "Spiked Body".
Spiked Body: After an oppenant makes a succesful attack ageist this character, deal one click of damage to all adjustent opposing characters after damage is taken ever if this character is KOed from the attack.
He should have about six click of health and starting values of Movement 12, Attack 10, Deffence 17, Damage 3 and Range 6 with one target. His TA should be the Brotherhood as most of the Hellfire Club members have it and his Keyword should be The Inner Circle.
Next is Beast from the X-Men anime. With some of the X-Men I will not be doing a full new dials. I will be taking a dial that has been made already and changing it to fit current rules and the anime version of the character. With Beast I have choose the Veteran Mutation and Monster Beast as Beast in the anime was more brains than anything. I would make Leap Climb a Trait which will free up his movement power slot for Charge.
Lasty this week is Storm from the X-Men anime. Storm is one of the X-Men who I will be doing a whole new dial for. Why? Because none of the current Storms have the right feel. Ok she should have a Trial called "Wind", Running Shot, a special called "Fog", Pulse Wave, Energy Shield Defenction, Defende and a special called "Lightning".
Wind: All attacks made by Storm does knock back unless otherwise stated.
Fog: Storm can use Smoke Cloud. Any friendly characters with the X-Men keyword in Hiddering tokens place by her, including herself, gain Stealth.
Lightning: Storm can use Range Combat Expert. This does not couse knock back but if the target had one or less action tokens on them, they gain a action token.
She should have five click of health and starting values of Movement 10, Attack 11, Defence 17, Damage 2 and Range 10 with two targets. Her TA should be the X-Men one and her keyword should be X-Men.
Well that is it for this week, until next time, have fun.
