Very true, but using that argument could backfire. Does it make sense for Captain America to hurt Superman? Should Wolverine be able to do that kind of damage to Superman, Hulk, Thor, you name it? You can't argue comic accuracy, but you can argue game balance. If these guys had above a 2 damage, then there could be issues with game balance in a swarm team.

Yes, both Wolverine and Captain America should be able to damage, even slightly, Superman, Spider-Man, etc...

In both instances, you're talking about enhanced humans (or enhanced mutant in Wolverine's case) with extraordinary skill, precision, and weapons.

The men from Easy, while formidable in their own right, utilize weapons that are from 60-70 years ago. There is a significant difference here.

I am quite pleased with the design behind the men from Easy, and feel that they are appropriately balanced in regards to the larger Clix universe.

Awesome.

No one's complaining about the Combat Reflexes, so I guess it's okay, but I would've figured on Energy Shield/Deflection instead. I picture them dug in and having a firefight, or trying to find a weak spot in a tank, rather than getting into close combat.

Spider-Man is a completely different story. But really, you're reaching if you're telling me Captain America is going to hurt Superman. Wolverine's claws wouldn't scratch him. At least translating "comic damage" into the game, I don't think Wolverine would do 4 damage (after reducers) if you're looking for true comic accuracy. Maybe 1 damage that he shrugs off and recoups from if they get a really really good hit in.

We are heading dangerously into the territory of Nerd-oneupmanship here.

You say one thing, I say another.

Regardless, notice while I say they could damage these folk, I never said they should win.

I'm no DC fan and I have no intention of buying any DC 75th except for what is required for sealed play.

But I have much want for both of these figs and lots and lots of the generics!

There's an easy fix to it. In golden age, just add in contact with oracle or armor piercing.

Done.

Think they look good. Knowing my luck, I'll pull just Sgt. Rock and no easy company soldiers.

OK, I should settle down but it's the day after Veteran's Day and Wizkids gives us a repainted Easy Company figure as Sgt. Rock! Are you kidding! C'MON!

They are amazing.
Though I would have liked them to have a special power that was called "Grenades!" and it would normally do energy explosion. However, to show the effect of throwing a grenade under a tank, that if someone has impervious/invuln they get to do 3 damage (without the EE)

Just wait, maybe we can get an Easy Company Medic too! They are worth taking up 3 slots in DC 75th, right?


...maybe?



...probably not.

That was a horrible pun. Rep for you.

Captain Metropolis I would like you to meet your new NCO Seargeant Rock. Your enhancement will be appreciated.

Checkmate Black Knights please meet your new squad mates Easy Company. Willpower looks good on you.

Yay!!!

I'm really looking forward to playing Rock and Easy Company. I like the repaint on Sgt. Rock. It looks great. One benefit of having re-painted pieces is the Easy Company Soldiers look just as bad-### as their commander.

I ordered my case last night. I hope I get a bunch of these.

And great keywords on both!

Combine the grunts with some Thunderers of Qward for great synergy. Damn, I guess the price of ToQ might go up now.

Ummmmm...these guys are awesome for any soldier-themed team. Since their minion powers are based on a common DC AND MARVEL keyword instead of a specific figure, they bring great versatility to a soldier team and are amazingly good for their points. What team doesn’t want leadership, shared 17 defense and free willpower? Awesome. Sculpts? Meh.
