Thanos, Corvus Glaive, Proxima Midnight, Black Dwarf, Super Giant, and Ebony Maw; the Black Order.

We recently played the newest incarnations of these clicks and one thing stood out...they suck.

They are over costed compared to other clicks out there and have no synergy as a theme team.

Therefore I set out to create a 300 point Black Order Fast Forces that really represents the overwhelming power of the Black Order. Thanos becomes the lynch pin for this team and as the team itself is KO'd Thanos' reign on the map will start to weaken. The clicks are designed to be played together with most not being able to hold their own without Thanos or outside a Black Order theme team. There are definitely some interesting takes on play mechanics as well to help accurately represent all six of them.

Enjoy!!

Thanos only has 1 range? that has to be a mistake.

i agree that The Black Order we have to date kinda suck and don't play well together. though i have played them to some effectiveness/fun. that was like a couple months to a year ago though so i doubt they hold up in today's game with some of the newer stuff.

while i like the idea of synergy and team friendly point values, i'd like to see multiple starting lines with more clix of life in addition to the budget versions. let them be 600 at highest point values and 300 at lowest. Thanos at least should have 300/200/100 point starting lines similar to Doom (and maybe a trait that lets him immediately turn to the next starting line similar to Mangog to represent getting all the gems somehow.)
