Yea, wasn't really liking it when I first got the mail for it...with only 333 points and GSX only it is hard :-/

Unless someone PM's me and wants details I won't give anything away. They took some liberties, but overall it was an enjoyable movie with the exception of three hardcore nerds sitting behind us that felt it was their obligation to give commentary. Thankfully I've got balls to tell someone when they are being rude and to shut the hell up in a theater.

You don't suppose the person who came up with it is ignorant enough of the rules to think that an ATA is applied to an entire team for just the single point cost of the card, do you?

I only ask because I noticed that if one puts together a team of every Hellion in GSX it's 330 pts, and the ATA is 3, and if a person didn't understand that it's per member, he might think that was a 6-character, 333 pt team. (Of course, the cost of that team with the ATA would be 348 pts.)

No, he just likes to choose random numbers for the point total needed

But I guess that's my team, minus the ATA...even though I am pretty sure most people will probably bring it

Build
82 GX022 Cannonball
47 GX021 Tarot
35 GX014 Roulette
47 GX013 Empath
38 GX012 Cypher
81 GX011 Emma Frost
330

Alternately, here's a possible X-Factor team:

44 GX001 Madrox
44 GX001 Madrox
110 GX008 Cyclops
94 GX027 Siryn
35 GX026 Leech

327

Only 6 points shy of the build.

The main flaw is the lack of really effective close combat attackers.

Yeah, it's a varied and interesting enough team that I'm sure you'll be seeing it.

No need for spoilers here.

There's also:

Purifiers
57 GX019 William Stryker
133 GX042 Predator X
25 GX002 Purifier
25 GX002 Purifier
25 GX002 Purifier
25 GX002 Purifier
25 GX002 Purifier
315

Somewhat limited all around, but it fits the build and you've very likely to find yourself up against X-Men and/or Brotherhood pieces, so Stryker's Trait will come in handy. Choosing the right opposing piece for Predator X will be very important.

or, the Hellfire Club:

37 GX004 Hellfire Club Guard
81 GX011 Emma Frost
53 GX020 Harry Leland
65 GX043 Trevor Fitzroy
86 GX048 Storm
322

With such a restrictive set of conditions it's probably worth forgetting about keywords/theme and looking for the optimum mix & match, but this is as far as I go.

Good luck, and have fun!

Oh! If you have the Crimson Gem of Cytorrak (5 pts) that could fit into several of these teams, giving you the possibility of super-charging someone.

I know the big spoilers but im seeing it tomorrow.

Someone I work with can't help himself when he has net access, and is always spoiling things for himself. Fortunately, he knows how to keep quiet about it.

Yeah unfortunately people I know aren't so quiet. Wont stop me from seeing it.

Dang, I leave for one day and you guys go and kill the old thread just cuz the pee corner was getting stale and now we are already 178 posts into a new thread. Just can't keep up with you guys.

On good news, I got my FCBD figure a day early!

I'm out of town at the moment, but checking in briefly. Tonight, I went to see Chris Hardwick (@nerdist) at the Varsity Theater in Minneapolis. Chris hosts the Nerdist podcast, and is the host of Web Soup on G4TV. He's also a big Doctor Who fan.
I met up with a friend of mine that I haven't see for 26 years, and we headed down to the U of M campus on the bus. As we got off the bus, I checked Twitter to see if Chris had tweeted anything of interest. Lo and behold, he mentioned a burrito restaurant he was eating in. My friend and I walked over to see if he was still there. He was. So we got to chat with him for a while, take some pictures, then he walked back to the theater with us. His comedy show was hilarious, and much of his humour was directed at nerd and geek culture. One of the best evenings I've had. When I'm home, I'll post a couple of pictures and one video.

Thanks for listening to me ramble.

Pretty sure I don't have that many Purifiers, also only super rare from GSX that I have is Phoenix.
