i've been out of the game for a while but need to get back heroCRACK. right before i quit, the no attack after taxi deal just started. is this still a real rule? i really hope not. if so, what are the general do's and dont's of NAAT and how are people working with it?

thanks.

It sure is. It's not so bad, really. =)

Also, flyers cannot carry other flyers.

Basically, what I do with taxiing is plan a bit in advance. I bring him up, knowing he won't get to attack until next round, so I only base up figures that already have an action token, forcing them to decide if they want to take a click to push and attack, or deal with me. It works even better if you base up someone that's pushed...hehe

It changed the strategy of Heroclix quite a bit, but it wasn't by any means 'game-breaking' as people thought it would be.

Also, you can carry someone who's pushed or has a token, let them clear, then they're ready to attack again. It just amounts to a slight change of mindset. =)

I recommend reading through the new unified complete rules at:
http://www.wizkidsgames.com/heroclix...e_Rulebook.pdf

Also, look through the FAQs for corrections.

Welcome back to the game, man! =)

Basically, a figure cannot perform any non-Free Action after they are carried. Additionally, Flyers cannot carry other figures with the 'wing' symbol next to thier speed (commonly called FCCF-Flyers Cannot Carry Flyers).

I would suggest visiting the WK website and downloading the latest Rulebook and PAC (Marvel Universe) as well as the latest FAQs and boning up on the rules. If you still have questions, then feal free to come here and ask away. I, and many others, will be more than happy to answer any specific questions you may still have.


As for getting arround NAAT, TK seams to be the most popular way of getting around it for now.

After 11 months, NAAT is here to stay (for now).

People work pretty easily with it. There are plenty of figs with TK which has kinda replaced the taxi attack although not nearly as efficient.

Also in the (I think) 3 sets since the rule changes there have been loads of characters with Hyper-Sonic, Charge, and Running Shot appearing.

Also a few 12 ranges have popped up and Barrier has really become an even more effective power (although still fairly under-used).

Welcome back.

SuperGENE was nice enough to put all of the rules together into one file, including FAQ updates and a line of sight diagram. You can get that here:

Enjoy!
