Welcome back everyone! For this edition, I have a new scenario based on Resident Evil since the new movie just hit theaters!
When last we saw our heroes, they were prepping for the last stand. Well.... it didn't work.
"You take the four on the left?"
I didn't allow the Bystanders/Single Click figures since they don't have a "final click". I suppose you could do it... I guess Vehicles could have been used, vehicles are prevalent in the movies. Maybe make it so that they don't come back. I don't think they'd have been used any way! Just a way to change up what players play. Overall, nothing at my venue is outright banned. Some weeks you can use Resources or Vehicles, some you can't. Keeps it fresh.

Resident Evil
600 points
Modern Age
No Bystanders/single click figures (even if they are generated by a figure)
No Vehicles
No Resources
No figure over 80 points
KO'ed figures remain on the board (scored normally) on their last click, becoming a "Bio Weapon". Bio Weapon figures are considered friendly to whoever is the active player. Bio Weapons possess BCF, Giant Reach 2 and Battle Fury, in addition to any other possessed powers. Characters KO'ed by a Bio Weapon resurrect with +1 stats and Exploit Weakness in addition to BCF, Giant Reach and Battle Fury
I only had two players for this one...light week. Seemed like they had fun though.
"I just got my nails done. You like them?"
I would definitely tweak this should I run it again. First I would stipulate that a Bio Weapon cannot be given any actions the same turn it was created. It was probably a corner case, but if you can KO a figure, and that figure can KO a figure, the chain can grow to a team getting wiped out pretty quick. Or, the next round, everyone remembers what happened last time and it's 40-50 minutes of positioning and trying not to KO anything until the last moment...
Another one I'm looking at doing I'm calling "SHIELD Team 6". Since SHIELD has 6 divisions (SHIELD, SWORD, ARMOR, STAKE, WAND and STRIKE). Granted STRIKE is mostly just SHIELD in England... but five teams just doesn't have the same ring to it. There is also SPEAR and SHAPE, but those might be harder to build around. I think it would be fun to see what groups players would assign. Say 500 points? Donatello could work in ARMOR... Mona Lisa maybe in SWORD? What would you put on what team?
That's it for today everyone. We'll see you in two weeks! Get out there and Cause a Scene-ario!

A.R.M.O.R. (Altered-Reality Monitoring and Operational Response) is a sister agency to S.H.I.E.L.D. that monitors alternate reality incursions into Earth-616.
S.T.R.I.K.E. (Special Tactical Response for International Key Emergencies) was a British agency, unrelated to but run along similar lines to S.H.I.E.L.D
S.T.A.K.E. is a S.H.I.E.L.D. subsidiary that specializes in dealing with supernatural occurrences
S.W.O.R.D. (Sentient World Observation and Response Department), works with S.H.I.E.L.D. but specializes in extraterrestrial threats.
W.A.N.D. stands for Wizardry, Alchemy and Necromancy Department, and is a division of S.H.I.E.L.D that specializes in matters relating to magic.

The stat bonus is what I think would be hard to keep track of. Otherwise, I really like the idea of something where characters stay on the board and can be played by both sides. It makes the usual gambit of a character that's godly on their last click a little harder.

Yeah it definitely got wild. Makes you leery of KO'ing figures.
Me, I would have brought some Bizarro type dials to go Ape Poopy all over!
