Message: <blockquote data-quote="megamania" data-source="post: 4578250" data-attributes="member: 9255">Okay-  Today I introduced Lee to Heroclix.  He used figures from the newest set.  I had suggested a 200pt team as an intro but he did a 300pt team.  So with a quickly modified team of 200 I was ready for combat.He used Plasm, Cosmic King, something Savage and another character I had never heard of that was decent (sorry- we had less than two hours to do this which meant i didn't take notes).I had the basic Rookie Fantastic Four from Clobberin' Time then added in haste paramedics, Con Artists and Black cat Expert.Game started slow as I was going over rules, possibilities and trying to learn the newest rules (I used to 1st ed and now at 4th there are several changes that are major).  3 of the 4 of his characters had Willpower so he crossed the field quickly.  I had Torch fly Thing to the nearest object as the others took to the building for better vantage points or hunkerdown with a 18 defence from Invisible Girl.Over the next few rounds I would always miss by 1 on my attacks (hate it when the dice decide a game) while he widdled at Black Cat and moved Plasm with his Quake next to the girls.  His damage was getting through to most of them which sucked.  Cosmic King killed Black Cat (and I promtly forgot to give the Thing some healing from her death TA of F Four).  Torch blasted him but drove him off the building with knock back placing him out of reach for Mr. Fantastic.  Eventually I do hunt down the King and kill him and another Con Artist his killed.  10 rounds and it is 5 minutes past when Lee needed to be going.Victory Points-Andy (me)- +85 (Cosmic King) + survivors (278)= 345Lee- 32+(Black Cat) 10+ (Con Artist) + survivors (215)= 257 Lee left thinking of new teams and happy with printed out new rules, TA and Power lists for his use and a turning ring.I am thinking how he plays different from the kids and I need to rethink my team construction.  He is much more aggressive than my kids are.So.... until the next game.....</blockquote>
