where be this marquee that ye speak of? I didnt think it was untill next week. either way I dont think ill be throwing my hat into the ring this time since I got a brick of sinister and I dont needs no more.
Arrrrr!
To that I'll say this: Perhaps I never played one yet at all??????
Although I agree on the other which is: If I bought a brick I probably wouldn't be buying another 3 for a sealed. This set is/was lackluster at best. I have another 3 to buy before I can get the coveted Venom coupon.
And here's a strange/cool thing. I've bought all my boosters separate and switched around from other bricks and these are my doubles out of 9.
R Madrox (and it's still a Madrox)
R Shield
E Hydra
E Mockingbird
E,V Jack O Lantern (which I traded both for a R Kraven)
So yeah....not so bad when you switch it up this time around.
I only got 3 Us but I dont remember how many V rares (not enough)
I got 4 r daredevils ...
I ended up basically buying all thie figs I wanted, I just hope I can find someone with a spare wolvie since hes the last fig I want from the set which I dont have
I don't want to play a game of chess where dumb luck or money decides whether or not I get to use a rook... Collectibility is a necessary evil of Heroclix, not a boon.
Ok Vegas Players, the tournament for 7/13 is the every popular Expansion Wars. You will need to construct 500pt teams using figures all from 1 expansion. This is unrestricted, so any set goes. BFCs, Feats, and Pogs are allowed, however you can only use them from the expansion you chose. For instance Ultimates can't use any cardboard, but Mutant Mayhem can only use cardboard from that set.
All Special Objects: Indoor/Outdoor 3D, Danger Room 3D, and CD/SIN Special Tokens are playable no matter what expansion you are using.
For this tournament, all house bans are lifted. That means T-Bolts, Fan4, and Superman are legal.
Captain's Picks - Top 3 Expansions:
1. Clobberin' Time
2. Ultimates
3. Legacy

Superman, fresh off the heels of his ban being lifted at Las Vegas venues has been accused of assault by several anonymous heroclix. The only one brave enough to come forward was #### Grayson, former protege of Batman. He is currently in a local hospital's Intensive Care Unit. The Newsdesk has the exclusive statement. They have been edited for content for our younger and more sensitive viewers. It is a direct quote as follows:
I was just swinging around on patrol in the Bronx and I saw Superman, and he was lookin' kinda down, so I figured I'd flag him down. I'm like, "hey Stallion!" Then all I could see was his eyes glowing bright red and he came at me fast as hell like a stray pit bull or something! I tried to Outwit him, but it was like he was on some Fortitude $#@# or somethin'! I even ran to hindering terrain, but he was Unstoppable! He just kept coming!"
This statement has set off a maelstorm in the superhero community. Adam Warlock, a Superman supporter and avid vocal leader of the "Bikini Stallion" heroclix lifestyle stated "These allegations are obviously false. I've known Clark Kent for quite some time, and he is the most gentle man I've ever known. This is just a sign at how jealous and vindictive the Bat Family can be. Can you really trust a guy who hides from everyone and spies on his "friends" with his "Brother Eye?"
Batman was reached for comment at a undisclosed location and had a grim yet brief response.
"Clark, I know you can hear me. What you did to Grayson was unforgiveable. The kid gloves are off, and the Kryptonite Gloves are on!!"
What are you gonna do against me now that your range is cut in half, punk?"
Our Special Correspondent was told abruptly to leave soon thereafter.
This concludes the Nevada Heroclix Newsdesk's Special Report. We now return to your regularly scheduled postings.
so who is playing in the marqueem, I Know we ALL want a lot more Sinister boosters man I didnt even think they where still makeing mage knight stuff.......whats that its an HC set? thats blatent copyright infringment.
There are some striking similarites as the MK set had sucky distribtion and most of the figs pretty much stank hmm well we'll just have to wait and see what happens when the Mech warriior and Pirates Sinister set comes out...

Expansion Wars Tournament:
The dust has settled and the results are in. The expansion that won our little Secret War was.....Fantastic Forces!!!
That's right aikijo took them all the way to the top going through the power and cheese of every other expansion. But why was this seemingly overpowering expansion not on the Captain's Top 3 List?!? Did I underestimate this expansion? Is aikijo that much of a better player? Or did the other players seriously tank! Back to the minors for everyone! The final results were like this:
1. aikijo - Fantastic Forces
2. Tange Freelove - Clobberin' Time
3. Sheild001 - Legacy
4. Bad6423 - Ultimates
5. E-Sleazy - Armor Wars
Tournament for 7/27:
This is the next constructed tournament for everyone. I'll be in Phoenix so Bad6423 has agreed to run this one. Boy are you guys in trouble. 400pt unrestricted, with none of your Captain's annoying house rules. That's right the gloves are off and anything goes. BFCs, Power Gaming, Tbolts, Fan4, and No Highlander Rule! Discuss strategy and have fun.
Dumbo06:
A big HC Realms welcome to Dumbo06 to the Team Vegas thread. For those who don't know this is Nick, Jeff's son. The one and only Rookie who won Fellowship and WWLA with his Screw Fellowship hat on. What a gamer!
Sleazy & Bad:
Eric, you have waaaay to much time on your hands at work. Do you even do any work? Maybe if you stop spending so much time on the realms, you can close some of those deals you are always talking about! And I'm not talking about loans, I'm talking about that secretary at you place. I go to pick him up one day, and all I see is woman and him. Less geekdom, more effort into chicks at Ellis Island.
And look what you posting has done. Mike is now boycotting the thread. You know he is "senistive' when it comes to this subject. Mike we accept you for who you really are. Please come back, we all miss you.
This week is the Sinister Marquee at the Majors Venue. I know some players won't be playing because they don't want to buy any more Sinister and some are plain broke. Come by anyway and get some pick-up games in. I'm thinking 300pt & 400pt theme teams. For those who will be doing this, flush out the details in the thread.
The Marquee at the Minor Venue:
A total of three players were brave enough to purchase 3 boosters of the red-headed step-child set of HeroClix. They were each rewarded with a Unique and 2 Rares. In the end your Captain was victorious over QuinnsClaw (Ben) and "New Jeff" (until he gets a handle).
Captain's Team:
Electro - V
Valkyrie - V
March-1 - R
Captain Marvel - R
Hydra Officer - V
Lockheed (300pts)
On the Bench:
Blackbolt
Spider-Man - V
Fixer - R
Daredevil - R
Hydroman - R
Swordsman - Rx2
Sgt. Tork - Pog
Camoflauge - Feat
Notice how the chase Unique of the set (pictured on the packaging even) and the chase base set fig of the set didn't make my sealed team! Shouldn't the chase/boss figs of the set be automatic's if you pulled them in sealed?!? What is wrong with this picture?
Here are highlights of the other two players pulls. Jeff got a V-Bullseye and Stilt Man Unique. Ben got a R and E-Bullseye and Charcoal Unique.

.
ahh but the chase non was on your team, V electro is the best non rare/unique of the set.
if BB started with his invul he would be a sure pick (assumeing the same or lower point cost)
stilt man should have won the whole thing if jeff used him, as the opponent would die from laughing.
It should also be noted that the only unique on my team was off the board for every game of the expansion war.
for this week we might have a 90's flash back to everyones favorite show Lois and Clark
I also need a list of inhumans made in heroclix so far (and figs that would fit on an inhumans theme team)
as for next week, can someone loan me a nanobots ( assumeing someone isnt useing it). Flash isnt any good without out lol....J/k I havesomething else in mind for nanobots If I can get ahold of one.
Ok just one thing, and Ill be postin the same question in the rules forum,
if radiation leak is the BFC, does support get a minus 5? since leak is - 3 and new support is -2?

Guys, I just wanna say that the level of play has increased dramatically over the last few weeks. It was hard enough winning an LE before. What are you guys on, steroids or something? JK
On a serious note, I am loving this. The creativity and punch that you guys are all putting on the map is awesome, and every dice roll now is pivotal. It looks like those Sinister LEs are up for grabs now. When I was running tourneys in Columbus I could only hope for such competition at a venue. It's getting to a point where I can't even joke around no more. You guys have owned me the last couple weeks, but just like any great supervillain, I am not dead, I just got written out of the story for a couple issues. PEACE!
Radiation Leak & Support:
No, you just get a -3 to the role. Radiation Leak states "...instead of floowing the rules for those abilities...", so you ignore the Support Text from the PAC, and use the text from the BFC.
Inhumans:
Blackbolt, Crystal, Medusa, Lockjaw. Could fudge Quicksilver because he is married to Crystal (how?), and Johnny because he f*&^ed Crystal.
Sinister:
The best non rare/unique(s) of the set are the SHIELD and Hydra figs. Electro is tits sealed with the triple shot. Odds are he will hit at least one fig and not waste an attack. Plus ESD is boss on any fig with all the low AVs.
Loan you a Nanobots!!! HAHAHA! Silly Boy. $5 online. Go and buy it today!
V Hive Trooper x2
V Katana
V Mockingbird (Alpha Flight)
V Karma
V Moonstar (Double Time)
R Fire
Lian Harper Pog of Doom!
and.......
V Psylocke (AW) w/Stunning Blow and Protected
Got me a GeneGrafted Brain with that team of.....
B!tches that kill you dead!
Took down a V Darkseid and Kalibak team by myself and then polished off a dented Shield team to win the battle royale/w cheese!
Talked w/ Lucky about this but Vet Psylocke w/StunningBlow ROCKS!!!!!!
Truly evil. I'll use her again!
Maybe you punk azzes can come up with some truly better things to play than ....KC (put comic character here) or Vet Stupes huh????
I'm going to come up there and whip you all one of these days.....SOON!
