I think Jimmy, Perry, and Lois should have been in to give Superman bonuses for defending them.

The reason every Superman is a mess of powers that doesn't feel like Superman is because they don't have his personality. He needs regular people to protect (And some incentive for you to want to play him like that). They should be his biggest weakness and his biggest strength.

I would have flat out LOVED to see Entropy Aegis as a piece in this set **sad face**

Fun article to read. Good job!

I am slightly unhappy with all the legion of superheroes figures. One guy I was hoping would make the set is Paragon. He has the ability to steal and multiply the powers of any organic being for a limited amount of time. His dial could have been epic. He was pretty much about to beat the crap out of Superman and he likely would have.

Imagine his dial being X clicks long or something. Say "as a free action" that if he has no action tokens to choose a character on the map within X squares and copy their dial with their unmodified values and he possesses all the same powers (maybe even traits). Then, once per turn, choose 2 of those values to modify +2. If the character he is copying tries to attack him, their attack value is -1.

I just see some cool abilities show up and then sometimes characters come out who can remove items from the field. I've seen it before...thanks. Time to push the limits.

Outstanding article. Loved it. But you shut your pie hole about dropping the LSH out of this set or you and I are gonna be moving some furniture around in this room!

There's also Starboy/Starman and Superman/Superman Robot, which altogether bump that 3 up to a 7.

Who is the woman in the Superman blue costume in the picture?.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who wants a new Maxima

Great article - lots of fun.

Extra Superman chase - WL supes.

Oreo bases superior. H-bases inferior.

Nice job, Rep fired!

I really appreciate the LSH figures, but I think I can comment on this:

In my experience, WK designs too many LSH dials with not enough raw damage, especially for the point cost. 70+ points for dials full of 2 damage (and many case of zero range) just do not make for a team that is competitive by itself. The best part of the LSH starter was that the dials in that set didn't have this problem!

Once you start factoring in that they lack deployment synergy (almost 100% fliers that cannot carry each other), you are left with small forces mostly with dials that require a huge amount of finesse and slow play that simply are not as appealing as other options.

Wow, I'm surprised by how many people that rubbed the wrong way. I thought it was fun and novel, not uninspired. I really enjoyed seeing it.

I truely didn't want to be that guy, but I just noticed the superman chase post in there.
You said 7 chase figures but I believe its 8.

Superman set 4 Chase
Arkham set 2 Chase
Brave & The Bold 1 Chase (Black Lantern)
DC75 Set 1 Chase (White Lantern)

Good thread by the way!!
