You could always Outwit their RCE and negate their use of Trick Shot.
Fortitude on Bricks ain't the thing.
Armour piercing has pretty much nullified that use for it.
I use Fortitude on E Doctor Fate, and make sure he's a good distance away--and on hindering terrain. 20 defense from range-- with Unoutwittable Probability Control and Psychic Blast!!
Fortitude has worked out GREAT on Energy Shield figures for me.
Fortitude has also been used to nasty effect on my roommate's HYDRA armies. Madame Hydra with Trick Shot and unoutwittable Mastermind is annoying.
Same with Red Skull's unoutwittable Poison.
Run, Ant-Man, RUN!!
Azs, I've only recently signed up at the realms, but I wanted to thank you for the years of great articles you've produced. They are always well written, insightful, and help me to better my game. From the marquee primers to reviews like this one, I will find myself reading and re-reading them and always coming away with something usefull. So I just wanted to say thanks
Oh, and I can't wait to get a Stunning Blow to put on Princess Python...
A couple of ideas that I have heard or had with these cards....
Fortitude: Not only great for keeping your impervious brick safe, but think of this. Put it on some one like Nebula, high base damage and Mastermind that can't be outwitted. Suddenly all those Moloids and pogs have wonderful uses.
Stunning blow on multi-arrowed figures can be kind of a waste but think about tacking on an Armor Piercing to that as well. Push thor and give another click to boot!
Originally posted by thespiderfly Stunning Blow deals the damage and Armor Piercing keeps it from getting reduced below 1. Why just Incap Ult Thor when you can also give him one click of damage guaranteed?
Guess I should have read the whole thread before posting...

Y'know, I can see a point to that. Fortitude on strong multi-purpose figures. Like Fate, Green lantern, or Mandarin. Figs with lots of powers, not just defensive ones.
Stunning Blow was the final reason I went out and spent waaaaay too much money on the Rupert LE. Come on, Stealth, Incapacitate, 17 Def w/ Mastermind, 3 Damage with Leadership? Then tack on 3 target ability? Pretty sweet.... People at my venue finally have a reason to fear the Moleman!
I wanted to add that the cards are a BIG help to those of us that play theme teams.
This weekend I had my "Ice Ice Baby" team of R Ice Man, V Killer Frost, LE Mr. Freeze, V Avalance, anad V Blizzard. But in a 300 point game, I had 35 points left. So I slapped a Trick Shot on Freeze (stealth shooting stealth was a big surprise for my opponent!) and I forget what I did with the extra points.
But what this really proved for me was that I don't feel like I NEED to include so-and-so just to fill up points; I can take the exact characters I want, but use the cards to make them better/more effective. Sure, I still got punked out pretty hard, but it was a blast!
Now I need a feat that requires barrier and that causes 1 damage (or even an action token) to be dealt to every character adjacent to the barrier tokens and I am set for life.
E Kid Quantum w/ Armor Piercing and Stunning blow is 1 point more than the V and worth so much more than that point. Hook him up w/ a little perplex or ICWO and that's 3 people incapped w/ a maximum of 2 damage (his 1 to each plus the push click). Hot.

Azs,
You've done some great things for the Heroclix community, but that picture and the caption, "Its not much, but Connie called it home"....oh, man, that is freaking hilarious!!!! Only way it could have been better is if you could have included a Vampire Lackey with the Street...I mean Con Artist and called it, "Connie and Lisa's One-Stop Apartment." Soooo funny...
