This week the guys talk about a bunch of games they played and Dylan's dire predictions for the Wonder Woman set.

On the Superman/Wonder Woman discussion, 15 WW-related characters would likely be 25 percent of the set. That's not bad, and certainly more in a given set than has even been devoted to WW. Assuming they don't remake Giganta and the two Cheetahs from S/LSH, that could be a lot of ground covered.

There's not much precedence in clix for how they do a set with split headliners. Mutations and Monsters is the only one I can think of, and certainly that one leaned heavy on the X-Men as opposed to the monsters. Somehow people were surprised by this back in the day.

If we use the Superman and the Legion of Superheroes analogy and apply it to the WW/SM set, there will be WAY more than 15 Wonder Woman related figs in this set. Though given what we've seen so far, I doubt that will hold.

How many points is the build for the faust team?

400 points
Golden Age (obviously)

Green is the only Battery I own.
I don't own the Power Plant or any of the YuGiOh stuff.

Hey, you used my team idea! That's cool! There were a lot of great teams in that thread. Glad to hear it did so well.

Instead of quitting while I'm ahead, I've attempted to make a CD085 Faust team that won't do terribly:

96 Felix Faust
150 Zoom
66 The Outsider
50 Rag Doll
24 Pandora’s Box with 3 sins (Envy and two others of your choice)
12 Society ATA x4
398

Secret Society of Supervillains theme. The main idea here is to give Faust Envy. For just about every old figure with stats that time has passed by, Envy is a dream. Borrow your opponent’s good attack values and boost your poor defense up to reasonable - at range, at least. Lust might be good to give this Rag Doll even more Plasticity and Combat Reflexes on top of his trait that punishes you forever for KOing him, for maximum obnoxiousness. Of course, Zoom is going to be doing most of the heavy lifting no matter what sin he’s using, if any. Unusually for a team without much range, I’d recommend the red starting line for the Box dial. It has chances for Phasing, Probability Control, Force Blast and Enhancement.

I only fit a little bit of wildcard Mystics abuse in there, I'm afraid. Wish I could have used the Supreme Intelligence, but great as he is, he doesn't do much to fix Faust's core problems.

D'oh! I don't have Pandora's Box or the Rock of Eternity. Sorry.

CD085 Felix Faust
8 JLTWS104 Greed
67 JLTW065 Greed
8 FIS104 Greithoth's Hammer
76 GOTG023 Yondu
1 ATA048 Guardians of the Galaxy (Silver Age)
59 JL52019 John Constantine
30 ASM023 Wong
2 WOLR100 Power Battery (Green Lantern Corps)
8 WOLR300 Green Lantern Ring
6 WOLR200.14 Sniper Rifle (Green)
8 WOLR200 Shield (Green)
6 WOLR200.06 Decoy (Green)
8 WOLR200.08 Scissors (Green)
6 WOLR200.12 Spotlight (Green)
10 WOLR200.05 Crossbow (Green)
399

It's a mystical theme team with mystics. Greed gives Faust some movement ability with the sidestep and esd to help is defense. And willpower from the battery. Should make him fairly playable.

The hammer gives greed running shot for his mind control and he can get the scissors to to damage.

The team gives you three attackers, some perplex and control over probability control. It lacks outwit unless the lantern gets enough range.

You can't Side Step before assigning your I.D. Card Power Action, it was shown that Summoning Back-Up through means of an I.D. Card happen before any other power that would/could normally happen at the start of your turn. This includes Poison, Leadership, Side Step, etc.

Interesting. Something I did not know.

Why can you not side step first? I'm just curious where it was shown. Nothing on the card says it has to be the first action given. You should be able to do any beginning of your turn actions in any order you choose.

Yes, Dylan...I'm totally an enabler. I've gotten more people into and further into this game than I can possibly count at this point. At the time I gave those out they were still fairly new, though. Hell, I gave away CRISIS figures within 6 months of them coming out.

Good convo, yeah the way I got several of my players in was giving them my doubles and triples. That and I always like playing with friends so it's nice. Sorry to see ya (or in podcast case hear ya) go boss, the show has come a long way with the both of y'all. Good luck
As for teams, here ya go
