This is a team I am hoping to play soon. I occassionally played an Alpha Flight team w/Logan (or was it Patch?)...swapping him out for Inspiring Command (and Armor Piercing) for Vindicator will probably make that team a lot tougher.

Inspiring Command almost seems tailor-made for the HSS-hit-and-run teams!

Sorry, I didn't necessarily mean "Superboy." I really meant "Connor Kent" but said "Superboy." Connor has an 8 range.

great article. I remember being excited by the possiblities when the card was announced, but i didn't get around to playing it until i was putting together a team to make use of my (then) new TonyStark LE. I had about 5-600 pts (dont exactly remember) and i decided to go with the second avengers line up (Iron Man, Cap, Hawkeye (all time fav char), Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver) After selecting my players, i went about filling in with feats and said "hey i can finally get a chance to use inspiring commander!" i played it with E cap who spent his time on the b!tch seat of hawkeye's Jetbike

and yes OMG it was great. I was playing at a venue other than my usual and ran into someone in the first round playing a LAMP team he'd pulled off the internet and didn't know how to use. needless to say the willpower came in very very handy

I've since tinkered with using the feat some, but i haven't found a better use than that E cap (mostly with the ever cool V FF Hawkeye) so it was with great pleasure that i saw he was not only on the list but at the top of it as well....

I once did a 300 point game, no one over 50 points. E Cap from the old set was definitely an effective commander in that match. I had E Cap, E Starter Wasp, LE Ant-man, R Hellcat (which can now be replaced with Mocking bird if I so choose), R Black Panther, E Moon Knight, V Scarlet Witch and Thunderbolt to Defenders.

I still like LE Wilson Fisk.
He gets the most out of Low-point SS figs.

Plus I like talking like the Kingpin.

I'd also like to add that Vet Queen Bee isn't really too bad for Inspiring Command. If you like The Society, then she's one of your best bets. Throw a little Armor Piercing on her, and you're good. And she can carry somebody around to give willpower to or to use as Mastermind fodder.

I havnt though about using him with that, I'll have to try a arachnos team sometime soon

Something else to consider about Vet Queen Bee (who qualifies for Inspiring Command from both Mastermind and Leadership) is that she is more pricey than the Injustic League Giant (Giganta)...still needs square-to-square adjacency for MM and IC tho'...but IIRC the only members of the Injustice League more costly are the Brainiac 13s.
