MK HeroClix House Rules

HeroClix, the 11th of August, Marvel Heroes Corps

Welcome to another HeroClix post. (Now with pictures and a bit more news). With the news this week there were previews of Kryptonian Soldier, Kryptonian Infiltrator, Livewire and a HCRealms Exclusive of Supergirl from the next DC set, Superman. Genetic Kryptonians, this set is broken. Also Street Fighter HeroClix has been released and I have learned the HMV has the Captain America Gravity Force, HeroClix in the store of the UK (not including comic book and collectables stores) and it is major store. Could this make the return of HeroClix to the UK.

This week was the second week of Déjà vu. The figure I picked for the Déjà vu event was the Black Widow from the main Captain America set. This week is the 400 points game. I went for a Thunderbolts team who were:

Black Widow (Captain America) 85 + Thunderbolts ATA 8 = 93
Bullseye (Web of Spiderman) 117 + Thunderbolts ATA 8 = 125
Green Goblin (Web of Spiderman) 122 + Thunderbolts ATA 8 = 130
Songbird (Rookie Fantastic Forces) 44 + Thunderbolts ATA 8 = 52
=400 points and four re-rolls.

On the first round I was up against Michel. He was use a Marvel Nights team who were:

Elektra (Human Secret Invasion) 80
Iron Fist (Secret Invasion) 70
Black Widow (Captain America Gravity Feed) 60
Luke Cage (Avengers) 85
Daredevil (Hammer of Thor) 81 + Stunning Blow (Feat) 10 = 91
=386 points and four re-rolls.

All I have to say that the dice were against me. I could not roll a five and he rolls tens and elevens when he needs mines twice in a roll. I ended up losing the the game. On the second round I was up against Adrian. He was use a Sinestro Corps team who were:

Lyssa Drak (Arkham Asylum) 64 + Brilliant Tactician (Feat) 20 = 84
2x Manhunter (Arkham Asylum) 64 = 128
Sinestro (Crisis) 146
=366 points and four re-rolls.

This was a close game but I just managed to KOed enough of his force to win the game as time was called. The multi Outwit was a nightmare. There was also a hell of a lot of double ones. It is not funny when you roll a double one push someone the theme time re-roll it and end up getting a double one again. On the third and final round I was up against Darren. He was use a Heroes for Hire team who were:

Luke Cage (Captain America) 98 + Inside Information (Feat) 4 = 102
Iron Fist (Secret Invasion) 79 + Protected (Feat) 8 = 87
Human Torch (Secret Invasion) 85
Shang-Chi (Avengers) 58
Black Knight (Veteran Fantastic Forces) 77
=400 points and four re-rolls.

This game was a total white wash. The Inside Information on Luke Cage was deadly. My only miss take was keeping Bullseye in hindering while he had no real range apart from Human Torch. I ended up losing the game.

Next week will be the third and final week of Déjà vu, meaning I must have Black Widow on the team, but nothing else from this week or last week. It will be 500 points.

For this week's DreamClix I will be doing dial ideas for the Vergugo generics and Lupit of the Twin Swords from the Blade anime; Daley Wong from Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040; Tazuna the Master Bridge Builder from Naruto and Jinta Hanakari from Bleach. But first we have the dial designs for Cyclops and Emma Frost from the X-Men anime; Kolo Gaap from CosmicBreak; Togusa from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and Chõji Akimichi from Naruto.


Next we have the Vergugo generics from the Blade anime. The Vergugo are tribal guardians of the inland, where Deacon Frost had a lab. They are lead by Lupit of the Twin Swords. They use white magic as well as weapons to fight with. However, their spells are too slow to cast to work on the vampires normal. Some of them were turned into vampires by the Manananggle. Because of this I will do this as a split dial, human and Vampire. On the human side they should has Blades and a minion power called, "Archer". On the Vampire side they should have Willpower and a minion power called "Monster".
Archer: Minion - If this character is within eight squares of a friendly character called Lupit, they can use Range Combat Expert as if they have a Range value of 6.
Monster: Minion - If this character called is within eight squares of a character called Manananggle, they gain the Flight ability.
They should have four clicks on both versions. The human side should have Movement 8, Attack 9, Defense 16, Damage 1 and Range 0. While the Vampire side should have Movement 9, Attack 9, Defense 17, Damage 3 and Range 0. They should not have a TA, the human side should have the keywords Vergugo and Warrior and the Vampire side should have the keyword Monster.

Next is Lupit of the Twin Swords from the Blade anime. She is the leader of the Vergugo and is the only Vergugo that was about to pull off spells. How ever this lead to her death at the final battle against Manananggal. She should have Flurry, Blades, a special called "Spell Casting", Willpower, Leadership and Perplex.
Spell Casting: Lupit can use Incapacitate as if she has a Range value of 6 and two targets. If a character successfully hit by her Incapacitate has the Monster keyword, deal one unavailable clicks of damage to them.
She should have about four or five clicks of health and starting values of Movement 8, Attack 10, Defense 18, Damage 3 and Range 0. She should not have a TA and her keywords should be Vergugo, Warrior and Mystical.

Next is Daley Wong from Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040. Daley is Leon's partner, and a highly skilled investigator who actively questions the contradictory nature of the AD department's relationship with the Knight Sabers. He should have a Trait called "Partners" and Perplex.
Partners: If there is a character called Leon adjacent to this character, they both gain a +1 to their Attack values.
He should have about four clicks of health and starting values of Movement 8, Attack 8, Defense 17, Damage 2 and Range 6 with one target. His TA should be the AD Police one and his keywords should be AD Police, Detective and Police.

Next is Tazuna the Master Bridge Builder from Naruto. Tazuna resolved to build a bridge that would connect the Land of Waves to the mainland to help restore its economic stability, which was against Gatõ's interest. He knew that Gatõ would try to kill him, but could not afford proper protection. It was because of this that Tazuna hired Team 7 under false pretense of protecting him from bandits. Unlike most of his fellow citizens, Tazuna was brave enough to defy Gayõ's interests although he was perfectly aware of the consequences. In honour of Naruto Uzumaki, and for his example of courage, Tazuna named the bridge the "Great Naruto Bridge" after its completion. He should have a trait called "Contract" and two specials called "Protected" and "Bridge Builder".
Contract: If Tazuna is KOed, you opponent gains 50 extra victory points. If he is still on the field by the end of the game you gain 50 extra victory points.
Protected: Tazuna cand use the Defense value of an adjacent friendly character instead of his own.
Bridge Builder: Give Tazuna a power action. Place up to two Bridge tokens on to Water terrain adjacent to one and other. The first one must be placed adjacent to Tazuna.
Bridge Tokens: The square it is on is classed as clear terrain. It can be destroyed as if it was an object.
He should have about four clicks of health and starting values of Movement 6, Attack 8, Defense 15, Damage 1 and Range 0. He should not has a TA and his keyword should be Citizen.

Lastly we have Jinta Hanakari from Bleach. Junta is one of the two children employees of the Urahara Shop. He also a member of the Karakura Superheroes. He should have the Flight symbol and Close Combat Expert. He should have about four clicks of health and starting values of Movement 8, Attack 9, Defense 17, Damage 2 and Range 0. His TA should be the Bleach one and his keywords should be Karakura Town, Karakura Superheroes and Kid.

Well that is it for this week, until next time have fun.
