apparently you didn't read any of his powers. his def ability is a stop click and he heals every round when hes out doors and highest elevation. so if they cant hurt him for more then a few clicks of damage every turn, it wont matter how many clixs he is. this guy is boss. i wish his power couldn't be ignored also. pulse wave tears this guy apart.

I did read the powers and understand that he would "NORMALLY" only take 1 click per attack if hit. I still however think that it is too easy to get around that power and take major chunks of life away. For a figure that costs over 300 points you just have to have more clicks of life no matter what other gimmicks you have going.

Im perfectly fine with 7 clixs, but doesn't feel like superman, to me this guy has too many weakness, 1. Indoor terrain. 2. Outdoor terrain with lack of elevation. 3. Almost any character with penetrating damage a lot of characters have penetrating damage with 3 or more damage, if not just perplex. 4. Outwit. 5. Spidey Hulk to remove the elevation. Here is how this character would be great. Start off on a 19 defense regular impervious. Than fellow up with the special defense powers, ether have it worded the same but he cant be targeted by penetrating damage and outwit by characters under 100 points? (or 150 ) Than i would be way more than fine playing him, i dont need a 8th clix, just that, and id be happy. His 325 points, his too much of a risk.

The defense power states that it can't be countered. Period. By anyone or anything. It is also a stop click so Penetrating blast and Exploit weakness won't be getting through. His biggest problem is Pulse Wave and unavoidable damage.

Highest elevated terrain could be 'one.' If there is no elevated terrain, all squares are "the highest." Nothing says it has to be red terrain. Indoor map will ruin him, so does pulse wave. Penetrating damage is stunted pretty well. If three 3 damage psychic blasts hit him, he takes 3 damage compared to 9 damage other characters would take. He would lose that awesome power at that point but have 4 clicks left. Not many figs have 4 clicks left after 9 damage. So really, the only issues are indoor maps and pulse wave.

I should of said more, i mean, if he takes 3 penetrating damage, than he takes the 1, stops, than takes another 1 cause of his ability, so if i damage him with a 3 damage character with say PB, than superman only avoids 1 damage. It wouldnt be hard to take this guy down with low pointed characters, and thats where my problem is, just doesnt feel like superman.

Oh I'm not arguing with you, 7 clicks is too short for a 325 point brick. I don't care what gimmicks he has.

I don't see how he would to 2 damage if hit with Penetrating damage. He would only take 1 damage and that's buy his effect. He would Ignore the Penetrating Damage.
I played a my friend n he used a nul and another cheap figure that had prob. Let me tell u at the end of the game superman started and ended on his first clix.

No, he ignores penetrating damage. A character with EW and carrying an ultra-heavy object with a natural 6 damage could hit him (scary scenario), and he would take 0 from the hit. He would then be dealt 1 unavoidable damage as he ignored more than 3. I think you confused 'ignores' with 'reduces'.
As for short dial, it appears that way, but it's deceptively long. Disregarding pulse wave, I believe it would take a minimum of 4 hits for 15 damage to kill him:
3+ to get to click 2
3+ to get to click 3
5+ to blast through invulnerability to click 6
4+ to reach KO
And that's assuming he never makes an impervious roll or gets to use his trait. That's a lot of damage to deal any figure. As a comparison, with outwit or exploit weakness, a 400pt Iron Man/Iron Patriot figure is easily killed with 2 hits, and that's 11 clicks.

I know the deferent n he would only take 1 damage. It's write in the wording.CHANGE THE WORLD: If this click is revealed as a result of taking damage from an attack, stop turning the dial. Superman can use Impervious; when he does and the result is 6, you may remove an action token from him. Superman ignores penetrating damage; when he ignores 3 or more damage this way, deal him 1 unavoidable damage. This power can't be countered.please explain how superman would take more than one?
You are correct: he would only take one from any normal attack. The only way he'd take more damage is with a power -pulse wave, for example - that ignored game effects. Hence why I said he would need to take a minimum of four hits for a minimum 15 damage to kill him.

There is so much support to us and so much Resources to use. You would play him in 400 to 600 point games Such a beast. Put the gauntlet on him with steel energy being use idk what to say but monster. Jus to tick ppl off Put Lara Lor-Van in the mix.
