MK HeroClix: 1st August - The Avengers Gang Lose

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 Excalibur Team Dial, Shadowcat, Phoenix (Rachel), Captain Britain, Meggan and Nightcrawler from Marvel Wolverine and the X-Men; and Catwoman from DC Batman Classic TV. At long last, a new Captain Britain, oh and it is good to have another Shadowcat. Anyway several images of figures from the Marvel The Invincible Iron Man set were revealed and the Iron Man 3 TapApps Elite figures are now out.

This week was the third week of the special tournament that Darren is running. He will bring four 600 point teams each week for eight weeks (round one). One DC heroes, one DC villains, one Marvel heroes and one Marvel villains. All teams are classed as Named themed even if it is not. 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’s teams were:

"Frightful Four"
Lyra (016 Marvel Incredible Hulk) 88
Taskmaster (048 Marvel Chaos War) 139
Medusa (042 Marvel Galactic Guardians) 82
Klaw (029 Marvel Captain America) 127
Deadpool (057 Marvel Web of Spiderman) 158
=594 points

“Bat Family”
Batman (001 DC Batman) 100 + The Batcave (R200 DC No Man’s Land) 100 + Utility Belt competed (R100 DC No Man’s Land) free with The Batcave = 200
Blackbat (010 DC Batman) 100 + The Batcave (R200 DC No Man’s Land) 10 = 110
Nightwing and Batgirl (100 DC Batman) 176 + The Batcave (R200 DC No Man’s Land) 10 = 186
Robin (034 DC Arkham Asylum) 66 + The Batcave (R200 DC No Man’s Land) 10 = 76
Spoiler (001 DC Legacy) + The Batcave (R200 DC No Man’s Land) 10 =25
=597 points

Major Disaster (044 DC Justice League) 59

Shadow Thief (026 DC Origin) 47
=602 points

On the first round I was up against Michael. I was using the “Frightful Four” team while Michael was using the “Bat Family”. Batman with his Utility Belt was shockingly the first to fall. I barely won the game against what was thought as the most powerful team this week. The Nightwing and Batgirl duo figure was a major pain in the neck. Also the “Avengers” beat the “Injustice Gang”. On the second round I was up against Darren. I was using the “Avengers” team while Darren was using the “Frightful Four”. Like normal Darren kicked my butt. Also the “Bat Family” beat “Injustice Gang”. On the third and final round I was up against Adrian.  I was using the “Injustice Gang” team while Adrian was using the “Frightful Four” team. I was in the lead for most of the game. I had taken out the charger Lyra and the tie up Klaw and could now turn my attention to Taskmaster as Deadpool’s trait was too much a pain to get rid of him quickly. I charge him with Parasite as he was hiding with stealth and I know he would loss it on the next click. He needed sevens to hit and missed. Chronos probed it but I missed again. Major Disaster probed (or it might have been themed if I loosed it) it but I missed again. So Amaxo had to Hypersonic it in and punch Taskmaster instead of Psychic Blasting. He needed sevens again and I missed AGAIN. I thing all (if not missed) of the rolls were beeping sixs. I ended up losing the game as even before and afterward I could not hit beeping Taskmaster. Also the “Bat Family” beat “Avengers”. The two teams that are joining “Legion of Superheroes”, “Crime Syndicate”, “X-Men”, “M.O.D.O.K.'s 11”, “Sinestro Corps” and “Justice Society” into the next round are the “Frightful Four” and the “Bat Family”.

Next week should be the fifth week of round one of the tournament, next week’s teams will be “Midnight Sons”, “Outsiders”, “The Society” and “Sinister Syndicate”.


Until next time, Armour Up.
