Thanks a bunch! My venue only ordered 6 Cases! I pay for the prize support kits though... but if I knew they would up it from BatB I would have made sure we ordered 7 cases. Damn you WizKids for changing it!

I wouldn't really be upset. I just REALLY wanted to say LE Tire.

I'm really worried the ATAs that Wizkids give out for WoS will be feats and will need newer ATA (black top, price per figure, based on keywords) versions of them made.

I could see the Tire as a new street lamp, Attack plus Incap

I could see one of the Special Objects being Odin's spear. During Siege, Norman Osborn assigned his Thunderbolts to recover the artifact, and they ended up fighting the Mighty Avengers over it. It was one heckuva spear.

Hmm! I just realized that we have a distinct possibility of getting an Eric O'Grady Ant-Man in this set...maybe even a Grizzly (since he matches both the Dark Reign and Spider-Man criteria). Excitement!

A Spidey tracer would be fun - "Opposing figures can't use stealth within four squares of this object."

Cap's shield? Make it kinda like Mjolinr, roll to see if you can handle it, then gain various bonuses to combat values.

Spider Tracer

Cost: 15 pts, Continuous.

Give the character carrying this a power action to make a ranged combat attack that ignores hindering terrain targeting a single opposing character. If this attack is successful, it does no damage, but lines of fire to the target character cannot be blocked by anything except blocking terrain for the rest of the game. Remove Spider Tracer from the game after it is used.

Yipes, 15 points is a lot for a one-shot that eats an action and might not even work, and that requires super strength to use.

It would be awesome to see Cap's shield as a special object. Web Shooters could be fun too. I think any special object with a cost should be 5 or less. Especially since they require super strength and can be easily destroyed before they are even used.

I still think it's stupid that you need superstrength to pick up the 3d lanterns. I can see needing superstrength to pick up cars, hot dog stands, and Thor's hammer. But not lanterns.

I hemmed and hawed about it for a while. It is high, but on the other hand, if it works, there's nothing the former-stealther can do about it, he's visible forever.

I considered making it cheaper, but giving the target a way to remove the tracker (which would be comics accurate), but it seemed like way too much text.

In the end, I thought to myself that if it cost 10, there was no way I wouldn't use it on a team that was heavily ranged attack and lacked any other way to deal with stealth. At fifteen, it was more questionable to me, no longer a shoe-in. That seemed about right to me.

The point about super strength... I'll lay money down now that within three sets, we'll see objects that you can pick up without needing Super Strength. With the new importance to special objects, they're going to start finding the super-strength-to-carry is far too much of a limiting factor to the game designers. When it happens, I want someone to remember and come back here and rep me. : - )

A couple people have said this 7 case minimum for 2 prize kits was an increase, but it was not. This format is exactly the same as we saw for B&B. There were a couple incidents of people saying their store didn't get them or got them late, or were 1 short, but I would call them isolated. It seems they got it right last time. People (in general - don't get too picky on this) got enough. Prices weren't astronomical. I'm sure they saw this and said, "It is good."

Eric O'Grady would be pretty cool, but Grizzly would be awesome. I remember reading his original story back when I was a kid. His updated look in Agents of Atlas and Thunderbolts is pretty great. I'd love to see him make the cut.

I cannot wait for this set. I am mad that they pushed it back a month but hope it helps the set get better

One could also point out that making the full vehicle would require 4 LE tires, but the ratio they're distributed in means that there are the exact same number of tires as there are any other parts of the vehicle, making the LE tire one of the worst, but also most sought-after parts of the prize kit!
