His dial's not up on the units section yet, but does anyone have any ideas as to how to best use Captain America, Principled?
His barrier plot ability that allows him to place 8 squares as a free action is certainly good, but he can only use it once before he has to add more plot points.
And, the only way he can add plot points is from another friendly character being given a costed action to use force blast, incapacitate or smoke cloud, so it seems unlikely to ever have avery big stash of plot points that you'd be able to use the barrier that many times.
His dial on the whole is okay, though I wish he had running shot instead of sidestep.
Been kicking around the idea of using him specificly for his plus 1. There are several good smoke cloud figures who do damage with there smoke clouds. Also a lock down team using 2 jw black lightning, unseen and this cap could possibly get things done.
I like the idea of the Thor set Loki's (002) with this cap. For 75 points you get 3 targets who are tough to kill (super senses/shape change) with incap and phasing teleport. Seems a great start to a lockdown team. Maybe peace machine too? He has a good force blast and fits the theme

That’s exactly what I was thinking! There are a lot of good clix with incapacitate, but finding the characters who deal damage with smoke cloud is a little trickier, here’s who I found so far
I'm toying with a couple of 300pt teams to use him on:
Avengers
INCAPtain America
AI044 Wasp - Outwit/super perplex
AI034 Iron Patriot - 2 tgt incap
TMT022 Jane Foster - support (chance to Thor)
TMT023 Eric Masterson - perplex/ enhancement (chance to Thor)
ADW005/023 Wasp - Leadership/2 tgt incap
Cosmic
INCAPtain America
AI031a Terminator - 3 tgt incap/enhancement
AI031b Terminator - leadership/token removal
AIG003 Kree Sentry - outwit/incap all enemies w/in 3/line of sight
Enchanted Crowbar for the last 10pts maybe?

This is incorrect. You give him FREE to activate the ability and add +1 plot point. Whether or not a friendly removes a token is irrelevant. You have to activate it once in the turn and no matter how many tokens are removed from friendlies that turn, he only gets +1 plot point.
Here's the ability:

(+1) EVEN IN THE FACE OF GENOCIDE, WE CAN'T BECOME MURDERERS: FREE: When a friendly character uses Force Blast, Incapacitate, or Smoke Cloud during a costed action this turn, after resolutions remove an action token from them.
