played against this guy last week when we thought he was immune to penetrating damage, still beat him in 500pts with a wonky xman team, even though it takes away 1 action taking a double power action pretty much negates any benefit you would have gotten from that .Even at 400 points you still have 3 actions to 1 every turn. also saves and or in-cap are really bad for this guy. as soon as this guy gets off his super white defense clix he gets squashed by a bug just like most things without saves and if you didn't take a full gauntlet outwit is just as good

In what world are the remaining 7 clicks past his first four considered bad to the point where he gets squashed like a bug? He's still obscenely powerful and can ruin quite a few characters very easily.
for sickness i can se teaming this character up with the Atom from teh Blacknest Night set to keep him on those SP Impervious clixs, add a few perplexers to perplex up attack and he could potentially put the hurt on Galactus
Sooo...does anyone else see what im seeing in this beast? Basically with his unbreakable armor that can't be countered or ignored this guy is technically immune to penetrating psychic blast and pulsewave. Also because of his movement special and oddly designed close combat dial....am I alone in thinking this guy can take on sentry/void? Think about it, even with sentroid in stealth because of Sharon carter, "the ship and I are one" can still grant brainiac a close combat action consisting of exploit weakness straight into sentroid face. With earthman in the corner sentroid wont be breaking away anytime soon. Sure ventry will follow up with a barrage of multi attacks.....but brainiac is one of the few that can actually take it! With his "ill show you impervious" he can take any retaliation ventry/sentroid can cheaply throw at him. And after brainiac rest from that double power action...he can proceed to pound sentroid into a mortal, Normal game piece.....I dont know....maybe im overlooking something, but it just seems as though sentroid may beable to dish it out...but brainiac can most assuredly take it.
I just wish he had outwit on that dial....I finally pulled off the promotion mechanic (which is easier than people think by the way) and I went from a brainiac that outwits and has 5 damage to a starting at the blue line, close quarters brawler without a single outwit. I still ruled the map however. Even at his 175 point mark...this figure is a beast. Nearly broken with the single most efficient version of impervious in the game!

You can deal 12 penetrating damage to brainiac and he still only takes 1. By that standard....I would say he IS immune to penetrating. Besides...with repulser shield feat on him...he gets to still roll for his impervious.
Hilarious that you refer to Sentroid as cheap when you're using a team with Brainiac and Earth Man together. One on one, I think Sentroid destroys Brainiac. He can quite easily stay out of range. It would just be a matter of having the patience to only hit Brainiac for one each turn (until the super-imperv is gone). That said, Brainiac is insanely good. I played against one that had the gauntlet with Soul Gem attached - nigh unbeatable I'd say.
When will we get a Carrion, Shriek and Demogoblin so I can run a true Maximum Carnage team?

Ummm.....no. you can stay out of the range of braniac who has 12 running shot or charge with a double power action? Lol...no indeed not. Earthman prevents sentroid from breaking away with hypersonic. Charge brain at TWELVE and tie up sentroid with 5 exploit. That leaves 5 weak remaining clicks....sentroid is done. I would love to use this on you........ :) Now THAT would be 'hilarious'.
Cheap? Can either brainiac or earthman use Multiattack? No? Hmmm....is brainiac 50 points higher than a sentroid who CAN use Multiattack? Yes? Hmmmm.... it just seems to me that sentroid is UNDERCOSTED for what he does, and if you beat him with characters that cost MORE than him and can't do what he does....then your not being cheap....your being a true gamer.

YOU'RE! Sheesh!
Leech can lock up Sentroid's multi-attack for a mere 35 points
I've played a game against him, since the he was left on his opening clix, I had a Red hulk, and Ant-man, he happened to be in hindering terrain, and he had an action token on him, so I move ant-man, and Red Hulk next to him, and my Red Hulk which was damage alittle bit, move next to him with a heavy object, so he decide to clear because he knew I could only do one damage to him, it was my turn, I outwit his Mastermind, and he took poison damage, but I then told him that he would take 4 damage, because poison isn't an attack, and he was shock, and end up to his blue starting line, I was more shock that it worked out.
@BestCaptainEver not sure what you are talking about. He would have only taken 1 damage. Poison deals 1 Damage, not 4. As soon as he clicked to click #2, he now has Impervious, which cannot be countered or ignored, so he stays there. You don't click him 4 clicks for 1 click of Poison Damage.
Trade to Canada. We're friendly, and we love Beavers..........

Well, your could be -if not are- correct about the taking one character poison at a time, since its was a fun, noncompetitive game, but I outwitted his Mastermind, so he didn't Mastermind is to this guy, since red hulk, or ant-man deal 2 damage for poison, under correct situations, he would take atleast 2, because his defense doesn't kick in until he stop taking damage, or until he gets his Impervious back, so his Stop Power wouldn't active because it not an attack, so, it just a way to do atleast 2 clix of damage before you have to deal with "I'll show you Impervious". From a game I played with my friend.
BTW: I'm not talking about normal poison, I'm talking about like Red Hulk "Hotter and Hotter" and Ant-man "Ant-Swarm" Special Power.
Would the 350 pt version of this guy get to keep his defense power if he was hit by Atrocitus(dc 75th version) while he was on his special defense power? Im thinking it would be the same thing as if Blackadam from the superman set was hit by him while on that power, but im not sure if it would be the same for this guy. Thoughts?
