I have NML this weekend (think it is for Poison Ivy so month 4 map) and having wanted to use NW/BG duo since BM release, figured this was the best time for it. Bogged down a little between a few teams.

BUILD
400 Point Silver Age
DC Only
No Resource Dials, Feats, BFCs, ATAs.

Local Competitive Level
Semi competitive scene, with 1 or 2 who tend to use tentpoles or "OP" figures each week (very thankful DC only means don't have to worry about SentryVoid or AvengersPrime lol), rest using favorites or fun teams. No Cruisers.

COLLECTION
Sadly my collection is limited, CUR and missing Voodoo and 053a for supers, and only own speeding bullets Chase from Batman and a few pieces from SoG (no notable Gotham City keyword people except for Sergeant). Have played Birds of Prey a lot recently, so trying not to use any of them (especially Barda).


TEAM ONE
176 - Nightwing and Batgirl
95 - Bruce Wayne (Prime)
100 - Batman (001)
19 - GCPD Motorcycle (Autopilot)

Gotham City theme team comes to 390 points. Bike carries Batman and NW/BG, taking them out of melee back to Bruce for healing if needed. Batman brings perples/outwit and acts as another attacker. Bruce is of course there for the inevitable Batman and stealth teams.

TEAM TWO
176 - Nightwing and Batgirl
95 - Bruce Wayne (Prime)
60 - Bruce Wayne
45 - Arkham Asylum Guard B
19 - GCPD Motorcycle (Autopilot)

Slight variation of team one totaling 395, trades secondary attacker for 2 support pieces that try to turn BrucePrime into the secondary attacker with TA. Wish GCPD Sergeant was 1 point less, so could put him over the Guard for leadership on BrucePrime.

TEAM THREE
176 - Nightwing and Batgirl
143 - Batman (Speeding Bullets)
60 - Bruce Wayne
19 - GCPD Motorcycle (Autopilot)

Another Gotham City theme team, totalling 398. Trades the Outwits for a stronger attacker and hopefully long lasting piece.


I'm leaning more towards team 2. Would love to win the Ivy but mainly want to make sure NightwingBatgirl perform well and I have fun with them. Any advice, especially from someone who has played the duo and knows faults/downfalls is greatly appreciated.

Personally I find that speeding bullets goes down too fast, and since hush Wayne ignores stealth you don't need the ta from him. I like team 2 but I'd drop 60pt Bruce for gcpd seargant. I assume he's there to ae into batman. Personally I'd run
176 nw/bg
95 hush Wayne
72 nightwing
50 batcycle
393pts
I love the nw/bg duo but it needs proper support cause they will definitely be easy targets with tons of move and attack and outwits. You have nightwing pilot the cycle to get the pilot abilitys. Plus you turn him into a 2nd attacker with 10 clicks of life. Keep Bruce back so he can support and ranged attack, plus he can be a fall back attacker if the duo, cycle, and nightwing go down. I've had much success using the batcycles with nw/bg.
