MK HeroClix: 27th June - Super Cheese

Welcome to the MK HeroClix post. This is a weekly post with HeroClix news and results of Thursday's HeroClix game at MK Wargames Society at York House. This week there were previews Zachary Hale Comstock from Bioshock Infinity; and the X-Men Blue Strike Force team dial, Wolverine, Cyclops, Gambit, Jubilee, Beast, Psylocke and Rogue from Marvel Wolverine and the X-Men.

This week was “No More Gotham”. 500 points, 3 actions, DC only, the “Gotham City” keyword does not exist. Roxi was with us this week as she was in Milton Keynes for the Formula One. I was using an Injustice League team who were:

Deathstroke (020 DC Justice League) 120 + The Society (ATA) 3 = 123

Lex Luthor (004 DC Fast Forces Superman) 50 173

Zoom (036 DC Arkham Asylum) 130 303

Bizarro #1 (048 DC Arkham Asylum) 199

=502 points and four re-rolls.

On the first round I was up against Adrian. He was using a Teen Titans theme team who were:

Supergirl (010 DC Superman) 200

Liberty Belle (010 DC Crisis) 84

Nightwing (029 DC Crisis) 79

Roy Harper (104 DC Crisis) 53

Raven (030 DC Icons) 73

=489 points and four re-rolls.

Sadly I ended up losing this game. Mainly due to the Super Cheesy Supergirl. On the second round I got the bye. On the third round I was up against Michael. He was using a Metropolis team that was not themed due to numbers who were:

Superman (001 DC Superman) 300

Lois Lane, Superwoman (009 DC Superman) 89

Lex Luthor (015 DC Superman) 109

=498 points and four re-rolls.

Again I lost due to Super Cheesy figures, but Bizarro's high defence kept the game going for some time. This was a win in Bizarro's mind. On the fourth and final round I was up against Darren. He was using a Justice League International team who were:

Batman (001 DC Batman) 100 + Justice League: Generation Lost (ATA) 3 = 103

Rocket Red (035 DC Batman) 102 + Justice League: Generation Lost (ATA) 3 = 105

August General in Iron (038 DC Batman) 142 + Justice League: Generation Lost (ATA) 3 145

Booster Gold (052 DC Batman) 98 + Justice League: Generation Lost (ATA) 3 = 101

Ice (007 DC 75th Anniversary) 47 + Justice League: Generation Lost (ATA) 3 = 50

=504 points and four re-rolls.

Like normal against Darren I lost. Oh for anyone who wants to know what team Roxi's was using, she was using an Amazon team I put together for her who were:

Wonder Woman (023 DC Arkham Asylum) 248 + Amazons (ATA) 4 = 252

Amazon (005 DC Brave and the Bold) 50 + Amazons (ATA) 4 = 54 x 3 = 162

Phillipus (027 DC Brave and the Bold) 84 + Amazons (ATA) 4 = 88

=502 points and four re-rolls.

Next week should be the start of a special tournament that Darren is running. He will bring four 600 point team each week for eight weeks. One DC heroes, one DC villains, one Marvel heroes and one Marvel villains. We will each take it in turns using the team. The top two teams of each week will move on to the next round. This week will be “The Legion of Superheroes”, “Phantom Zone”, “Defenders” and "Masters and Minions" (Doom and Kang).

Until next time, Armour Up.
