Adding some other figs you might have to face:

The teams relying solely on the CCEer to attack after NC teleports will have problems facing Danger.

Figs with great mid-dial spikes like KC Supes or Green Scar. Popping BatB Wizard Shazam for 4 is like doing your opponent a favor.

Black Flash in general.

I really like the following team with Nightcrawler:

Nightcrawler 86
Captain America 72
Gamora 73
Robin 66

I like some of the other versions, but this seems very mobile. I also really like the idea of Nightcrawler carrying around Gamora so that whatever figure he brings back is sure to feel some pain next turn.

OK, how about this for Modern:

WS Nightcrawler
HA Captain America
BB Diana Prince
AA The Question
AV Shang Chi

+5 Map choice and 2 PC, 1 Perplex (or two with Question), 1 OW. Cap is there to shoot those who want to stay out of Nightcrawler's range since he has a swing of 13. Diana can Perplex Nightcrawler's attack. Once Nightcrawler steals someone, Question can OW their D while Shang Chi pounds for 4 with CCE. Shang Chi can also copy X-Men to heal Nightcrawler if needed.

Edit: I just noticed neutralmarkhot had the exact same team but I missed it ... d'oh.

I like
Nightcrawler 86
Captain America 72
Robin 66
Hand ninja 38
Question 37
299 points. I really like the idea of Nightcrawler carrying a ninja along and dragging the enemy into hindering terrain.

For a more themey option, there's
Storm 100
Nightcrawler 86
Beast 73
Marvel Girl 40

I really like this too. I'm not sure if it's better to have Hand Ninja and Question or Gamora, but I really like both options.

Funny thing about us putting NC in the same team as Cap ... one loves the Prison map, and one does not.

I think it balances them out a bit. If Cap is with Nightcrawler on the Prison Map, Nightcrawler can BAMF! through the wall, grab an enemy, and bring him back for Cap to shoot up. It helps out with Cap not being able to shoot through the walls.

I'm thinking a good map for a Nightcrawler/Cap team is the Crash site. Lots of hindering terrain for Nightcrawler to hide in, and some outdoor blocking that Cap can hide behind.

Oh I definately think that or the Tank map would be good. With Nightcrawler though, the Prison map isn't as bad for Cap as it normally would be.
