With Grapplegun and Ammo which weighs in at rep 348 $2000. But i'm tempted to drop mr. Freeze and include the three remaining penguin henchmen.<br /><br />Cool I can knock up another loot counter then as Penguins loot counter rule.Simon Quinton https://www.blogger.com/profile/18001946192905517180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3239850240632449202.post-58191713020338928702015-06-17T17:32:51.716+01:002015-06-17T17:32:51.716+01:00Welcome to the cult of the bat...er game. Yes I me...Welcome to the cult of the bat...er game. Yes I meant game.<br /><br />The victory point system in the game does take some getting used to. I don't play any other games that have anything similar. In some ways, it feels a little odd that you're not always concentrating on killing your opponents in a comic-related game. On the other hand it makes the game far more tactical.<br /><br />We played small in the beginning, starting at 150 and now up to 250. I think we are going to stick in that range for the near term. The first few games we ignored the scenarios and objectives just to get a handle on the movement and combat mechanics.<br /><br />Since you already have an experienced player to learn from I'm sure you'll get up to speed way faster than we did. Have fun!Obsidian3Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03987358994076703659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3239850240632449202.post-7673136831196056402015-06-17T17:10:41.510+01:002015-06-17T17:10:41.510+01:00Good to hear that you enjoyed it.

Just one thing, the tournament rules don't insist on official objectives, only the miniatures, so yours are fine...and cool. :)<br /><br />Is it too early to ask what you're going to add? Henchmen or Free Agents?Kieronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826758937461068243noreply@blogger.com
