(Damage) Minion: Today is Not That Day: When a friendly character with both the Asgardian and Deity keywords is within 8 squares, Valkyrie has Support and can carry friendly characters with the Asgardian keyword
I read it as Valkyrie can carry an Asgardian, even if there isn't a Diety/Asgardian on the board, or within 8 squares. Correct?

You are absolutely correct (I was reading way too much into the "and").
Heroclix is a strategy game with comic book characters where you can shoot sheep guns and quip with Spider-man and Deadpool. It is played by some of the nicest, most giving people on the planet. That is why I play Heroclix.
I ran a 500-point team the other night - Ragnarok Surtur with seven Fire Demons. Rather than go for the full eight possible Fire Demons, I put feats Shellhead, Inside Information, and Armor Piercing on Surtur.I think the best word to sum up this team is RELENTLESS. With five possible actions, I was making 4-5 attacks every turn. Two opponents fell easily to this team, but Thor & Loki duo figure was murder on the team. The combo was knocking out two Fire Demons at a time, and my opponent was successful with her Shape Change roll the first three times Surtur got close enough to attack. My team eventually fell, though I should have won and likely would have if not for two things:
1. I did not make good use of my Inside Information feat. I had just acquired it the day before the tournament and forgot to use it most of the game.
2. Disbanded was in play, which helped Surtur avoid Mystics damage, but forced him to take a click of push damage several times. Ideally, when running a swarm team like this (or any swarm team) against a team with a small number of characters on it, you'd want to run the BFC Blood Curse from the BPRD set. Running this, your opponent would have a 50/50 chance of incurring damage every time they knock out one of your little figures.
I plan to run this team again, at some point, and I think I'll fare better the next time. My biggest fear would be facing a character with a (Nova Blast) Pulse Wave before I could close in on him.
