my venue is doing a 500pts modern age tournie anyone got any suggestions for a team that can win ? please no gaunt or sentroid i wanna win without cheese


p.s. if you wanna take it into account when building there will be sentroids running round with gaunt brainiac too

you're probably not gonna be beating a sentroid + gauntlet team without cheese. Your best shot is gonna be an unspoken team, but that's still cheese

i was thinking along those lines just wanted to see if som1 could come up with something i could actually win with ;p. may just go for causing them as much trouble as possible without running cheese

I don't think you need "Cheese" against Ventry. I played against him with a Metropolis team fronted by Cyborg Superman. I made sure there were plenty of objects to eat and used my lower point figures to tie up Ventry. Keeping him hidden behind stealth characters also helps alot.

This is a team I've been meaning to bust out for a little while now:

D10A Nightwing 94
M10A Spider-Man (Chase) 99
M10A Wolverine (Chase) 96
IH Black Bolt (Skrull) 133
GG Xavin 75 + Runaways 3
= 500, Skrulls (thanks to NW's trait).

They can all use Skrulls, Batman Ally, X-Men and copy Runaways (really helps AV). TK + Perplex and PW isn't bad by any stretch, and thanks to Wolvie, if BB gets hurt you can heal him. The other three help Tie-up and harass your opponent's support while BB wails on his big gun.
