wow, even I am amazed at this thread. does anybody want to settle this issue at recess in the playground? cuz the way this is going it's going to be the only way this is going to get settled.

While I was away, my perfect bride took great care to record all my favorite TV shows thanks to the magic that is Tivo/Wifi/MPEG-4 converters.

So understand, I had (have) literally 3 months of TV to catch up on, more when you consider there are new shows as I'm catching up.

Big Bang Theory was the first show I caught up on. One of the funniest shows on tv today. Someday, SOMEDAY, I want to see Leonard and Sheldon play Heroclix and have some kind of argument about the line of fire. I can see it now.

Leonard: "Sheldon, it is obvious that my line of sight allows me to attack your Batman."
Sheldon: "Nonsense. Firstly, his team ability causes the hindering terrain to be rendered as blocking, thus preventing your attack. What's more, Heroclix uses the line of FIRE mechanism, there is no such thing as the line of sight in Heroclix."
Peggy stares, open-mouthed.
Leonard looks to her, shakes his head, pushes up his glasses and says "It was easier before he found a rules forum online."

SOMEDAY!!!!!


EDIT: On topic - ULIK RULES!

EDIT2: RavenProject proves that "(figure) is worthless" is accurately translated as "(figure) doesn't work well on the team *I* want to play him on."

I agree with this post.

I would too, but that HAS happened.

Where is the ruling that all powers and abilities ignore one another so every one can be happy and heroclix will just be a flavorless, stats only game. Or we could all just play chess.

It was more of a blanket statement... That I was beginning to think got overlooked.

Yeah...but there was a lot of extra curricular stuff going on that took away from it IMO.

...but my horsey only moves in L shapes That's totally worthless. I mean who moves in L shapes? You've think it was a game or something.

He ignores friggin Pulse Wave, do the idiots who say he's useless not realize how good that is? Ultron is one of the best new pieces in the game - with Nova Blast and Haymaker he is RIDICULOUS, I've seen it a few times. Ulik laughs in his face.

So if I apply Harpua logic to your statement...

Ulik beats Ultron, Ultron beats Hank Pym and Hank Pym beats... his wife.

Oh, I went there!

Sounds about right

Wait!!! You said "penetrating"....*snicker*....*he he he*...















What?

I think Ulik actually beats out rookie Swamp Thing for best Mastermind fodder in the game. I like using either SR Loki or Enchantress with Ulik close behind to mastermind too. It works best with Enchantress as she also has toughness so if some pog or figure with 1 damage decides to ping Enchantress she can soak it up with her toughness, so that way Ulik doesn't take an unnecessary 1 clicks of damage.

I still think he is a great figure, you just need to know how to play him right.

Wow, and I play Mind's Eye Theatre... never should have gotten that wrong.

don't forget that repulser shield.
