Curious about the Unique status of CW&MK. I am guessing if you start one on the Colleen starting line, you can't start another on the Misty starting line on the same force because it doesn't say anything about their name changing. But if you had three copies, could you start as the duo and then split into two copies?

The trait wording:

DAUGHTERS OF THE DRAGON: When you build your force, choose a 70 or 140 point cost. In addition, each time you reveal your force, choose the green (Colleen Wing) or yellow (Misty Knight) starting line. If you chose 70 point cost, this character has the "single fist symbol" and is KO'd when the first red line is crossed. If you chose 140 point cost, this character is KO'd when the third red line is crossed.

Regardless of what you pay, the figure has the same set number and same name - so the Unique designation is either a screw up or a middle finger since you cannot field more than 1 Unique under the current HeroClix rules.

Either way:

No. Your force can't include more than one copy of a unique figure. The rule is not just for force building, but for the whole game.

Methinks you might be taking it a little too personally.

Being unique does have the advantage of likely making it easier to acquire, since people won't be looking to snatch up 3 of them.

That's true.
edit: even if the figure weren't unique you couldn't split into the only dial-base versions of the single figures since they aren't actually single named. It does make me sad there are no single-named versions (other than the Bystanders) of these characters, though.

Errata to make it non-unique wouldn't matter, though: the single versions still aren't correctly named to use Split/Merge, are they? So the best you could do would be two of them to represent Coleen and Misty working separately but on the same team? I was hoping for single versions myself, so if that's your issue I'm on-board.

Its sort of my issue too. But being an SR I doubt I get 2...if I had I would have loved to mod them with one figure on each dial....I really would have loved if these were the start of the new switch clicks.

Its definitely a cool dial concept.

The actual rules dont really bother me though because those rules are easy enough to ignore.

True. The fact that the duo exists potentially gives Wizkids more of a reason to make the individual characters, though.

COULD you split into the bystanders? I know you wouldnt normally do so.......

Precisely my question. I don't see why it'd be against the rules....

Assuming those are the names on the card, sure. Not having the card I can't really say.

Not against the rules, but you would be throwing out a lot of points.

If your duo was about to die...?

Wouldnt the duo have to be on click 1 to split into the bystanders?

Unless you wanted to KO them both immediately...
