Howdy one and all,
I hope you are doing well and that summer-mode is engaged or at least about to be. I had the chance a bit ago to get some Marvel characters on the table with a game against Mike and Duncan. As always these figures are alot of fun to get out, and the game proved to be extremely entertaining.
For my crew, I had Doc Oc (his laser attacks are the best), Deadpool (he looks great on the table), Domino (I haven’t given her a try yet), the Rhino (big rage machine and a lot of fun), and the Hulk (I hadn’t tried him out yet).
For the life of me, I can’t remember the name of Duncan’s figures…except for Malekith…super impressive figure and rage machine. And Mike had an X-Man inspired crew…I remember Colossus and Magneto and that’s about it. Anywho, Duncan had 4 figures in total, and Mike and I each had 5. I can’t remember the scenario specifics, but I do recall having to grab stone shards and holding portals…or some such.
Now the pics…and totally random commentary:
The crew getting ready to rock…Domino and the Hulk are going to push right initially. Deadpool, Rhino, and Doc are going to push left.
Overview of the table. Duncan is coming on mid table on the left; Mike is coming on near the topright portion of the pic, by the sea containers (orange and red). The objectives are red (for the shard) and blue (for the portals) tokens.
Domino moves fast and secures a piece of the stone, and holds one of the portals. The Hulk moves up, having her back…takes him a bit extra to get there (Dom was moving about 2 times as fast as the Hulk).
Mike’s crew starts making their way out of the Construction Yard and edging towards Domino and the Hulk.
On my left, I’m already starting to bump into Duncan’s crew…who I can’t remember, but Malekith and the big damned cat that he is riding is clear to see in the background. Deadpool has one of the shards…and Rhino is working hard to keep up.
Another overview shot…you can see how big the damned cat is…
Doc Oc is making his way to another portal…I think he is actually supporting Deadpool…and his laser attacks are a lot of fun…and if I remember correctly, they don’t take a lot of energy, but are a pretty good attack.
Deadpool runs in and secures the portal. You can see, the Winter Soldier is down for the count, cutdown by Doc’s laser attacks…there you go, I remembered another one of Duncan’s crew…Mr. Bucky Barnes.
The Rhino rushes in to go toe-to-toe with Malekith…and spoiler, doesn’t do well.
The Hulk rushes in to try to help…he does one of his leap attack/moves (I can’t remember which)…to help get there quicker. Domino is holding her own on the right.
There’s a pretty good furball going on between Deadpool, Doc, Hulk, Malekith, and Duncan’s other characters.
Malekith has some demon spin actions that let him move very quickly…so he changes facings and is now behind Deadpool taking him to task.
Colossus makes his way over as well, and gets into the Hulks personal space.
And Malekith is there to cause more trouble.
and Domino has been pretty content holding onto her shard and portal.
By the end of the game, Duncan and I are both down a couple of figures…Mike is in the lead with points for holding shards and portals. But there’s always time for a group shot.
