We call it the 'Other Age'.

::insert usual post debunking this myth here::

We already know the figures on top of HeroClix sculpts are characters.

Just because the USS Defiant is a character it doesnt make Iron Man into a ship.

Iron Man's armor is a vessel that conveys a person from one point to another, that sounds like a ship.


Maybe Spider-man would have been a better example?





WK has decreed, what WK will decree, we need to move on to a new subject.


The ship has sailed on this thread.

Iron Man would be a "boat" not a "ship" any person experienced with Maritime terminology will tell you there is a difference.

Well said Sir NbPerp,this is exactly how I see it as well.Star Trek Tactics is not Heroclix it is Heroclix compatible.

I know the technical difference between a boat and a ship, but the definition of a ship also includes: any vehicle or conveyance (Informal)

Link to definition, read the whole thing, it is a bit long

So Iron Man's Armor is a ship (and even a boat, as it can fit on another larger boat) as it conveys him hither and yon.


So to follow your example the Heroclix experts, Wizkids, is telling us that in their sandbox a 'ship' is a 'character'. How is that any different than any person experienced with Maritime terminology telling you that a "boat" not a "ship"?


The experts, Wizkids, have spoken.

Could we please get the Intrinsic Field Experiment 15 from Watchmen reclassified as this as well? If you pay points to play it, it should be legal and not "Cancelable".

You are not the first to ask. And like I told Suttkus, it might happen... but I wouldn't exactly hold my breath while we wait, either

Ok, can we just say that if there are non-ships and ships on the map then the whole Star Trek universe has been shrunk and dumped somewhere.And when it's just ships it's normal.
