Obviously we don't know much about how Steve is going to fight in the Secret Avengers, but we know he's going to use a gun, and punch stuff. What would you guys use for a stand-in dial for Steve if you were making a Secret Avengers team? The new FCBD War Machine will be a great heavy hitting addition to this team.

I was thinking someone along the lines of CR Nightwing, not too much base damage but hard to hit with some leadership. Dunno about that team symbol nonsense though.


What do you guys think? Who do you think makes a good Secret Avengers leader? I love seeing how people represent characters with current dials.


Bonus points:
Pick new dials for Nova and Moon Knight, two characters I don't feel are properly represented in their current forms.


Sorry if a mod feels this is misplaced, I just wanted to get a discussion going.

I love the current Nova. One of my favorite pieces. Sure he could be a 150 pt brick but he's downright undercosted at 87.

Ultimate Captain America

I planned on using Captain America from SI and modding him to look like Steve. He is a great figure for the points, and has no range ( I didn't know Steve was using a gun).

I really hope the "gun" Steve uses is a traq/stun as he has always been as admant about no guns/killing as Batman was. I mean they made a big issue about not only the first guy whe killed (An Ultimatimum agent I think) but a fe wothers who died by bullets as Steve could stop them (Scourge, Porcupine and I cant recall)

Nova it depends on what we are getting kinda sad he is coming back to Earth as his story was best told in space

I gotta say I like his Super Soldier Uniform.
The design is sleek, cool, and reminiscent of Captain America.

I can't wait to see them make a click!!

I never understood where Captain America's "no-killing" policy came from, since I always assumed that in WWII he was killing nazis left and right.

As for a dial for him, maybe something simple, like Batman Alphaclix Nightwing. I know that's a tough piece to play, but it can do quite a bit if you don't throw it out to the middle of the field to die.

For the purposes of modding I would probably just use the HoT Captain America dial. The absence of damage reducers actually helps here (that suit isn't going to give Steve Impervious), it plays like Steve, and it has the right keywords and team ability. I'm happy to go with the obvious answer occasionally!

The best dial I've found for Moon Knight is the Masked Manhunter from Batman Alpha. The dial has Stealth and good combat values, which Moon Knight needs; Shape Change reflects the terror that Moon Knight causes in criminals (whose hands are usually shaking too badly to hit him with gunfire), and Mastermind is an aopt choice considering how many of Spector's allies have been injured while working with him.

Nova is trickier, but a Green Lantern (without the GLC team ability) is a good place to look. The Blackest Knight starter set Hal Jordan would make a decent Nova.

stupid laptop is giving me problems... my real response follows...

Secret Invasion Nick Fury~!

I'd say since the new Steve Rogers is more or less the Old Nick Fury, this would be a perfect fit.

THIS IS GOING TO BE EPIC \o/...well maybe except for Beast.

Only if he uses LMDs!

Although I could be wrong (the book isn't out yet), I think that the LMD power and Fury's use of Mastermind are both inappropriate for Steve.

Actually from what I know No he didnt at least not intentionally He used his shield to knock them out and that was pretty much it.
This in contrast to Batman whose gun aversion was a retcon as he used to kill a lot in the 40s (of course I guess now that was the dead E2 Bats anyway)
