What do you mean by 2 separate lines? So Pawn, to Knight, to named figure? Like so:

Black Pawn -> Black Knight -> Pawn 502 - Madame Marie
White Pawn -> White Knight

Like that?

Oooooh OMACs.....

does someone have the updated list so I can see What I have to choose from at sloppy 16ths .....

alright guess I'll be taking Checkmate then. Really wanted Mags with the New Mutants, so I'll be taking Checkmate then. Should be interesting.

Oh good, so Deadpool is back on the table Stepp?

Someone drop a line to discombob so he knows he's basically the next to be needing to decide? (Tanis and Kontrol are ahead of him but already have an idea of things).

I've been following the thread. Having a hard time deciding as most of my picks are long gone. Just gonna have to see what is available when it gets to me. I'm sure I will come up with something.

was thinking of Asgard, but with Thor gone, I lose one of the big hitters. (though I suppose they all qualify) toying with a lineup of

Volstagg
Fandral
Hogun
Sif
Baldur
Heimdall
Odin
Asgardian Warrior
Valkyrie

I think Craig can vouch the team has punch. Don't forget there's also the Valkyrie generics to take your 10th spot too. Arguably you could also go for Loki or Enchantress or even Skurge.

Heck, I'm still of the theory that Throg should be "duplicateable" as the current Throg and not just Thor as the Thunder Frog (you just can't upgrade him to another figure).

Well, Thor's not gone yet.

And since we're doing a snake-style draft you would be able to grab Thor first.

That being said, the team you just described was one I was looking to play in another league.

I can vouch for their abilities even without Thor. Just a dang fun team to play. Once you get in close to your opponent...you usually win.

I am intrigued by this challenge. Mainly because I really want all 4 of the U-Foes and all of the Wrecking Crew. I would absolutely play them each 3 times if we have 8 games.

Then I could also get Graviton, who I have never used and looks scary fun.

That's exactly what I mean-except Madame Marie is White's V.

Because Generics are a slot, right? Thus you are buying the white slot and the BBlack slot, yes?

I...wrecked house in a close combat only scenerio with the Wrecking Crew. I love telling everyone (and zxyba can vouch) about how "You been Dozed!" hoping people would throw pogs for them to squash, because you know, their Masters at being Evil.

Oh yeah, the wrecking crew can be nasty, with all their damage reducing and their ability to sit there and pound you all day. A lot of people underestimate the effect they can have.
