Blog #2: Clixing on a budget!!!!

Hey guys, you know the drill, wanna be a baller?  Shotcaller?  But for under $10 dollars?

I got your back... quick style, HERE WE GO!

A little heroclix action this month, table top lifestyle for sure.

So this time, it's not quite the traditional format, instead I found a built a team from ebay of 300 pts of Heroclix awesomeness SHIELD keyword, this team would be a good team for all kinds of level of players.  From beginners to Advanced, tons of probability control so you get lots of chances to make your attacks and to defend yourself, also a way to slow down the enemy and turn off the mystics team ability all for under $15.00!

Meet your S.H.I.E.L.D. team...

Deathlok #35 (Nick Fury: Agents of Shield Set)

75 pts,

He starts out with Running Shot and stealth and a probability control for good measure so you're going to get two chances for that alpha strike.  He becomes your brawler in the middle of your dial with close combat expert and the fun part is that with all the probability control I put on this team, you can get greedy and put both in damage, swinging for some meaty hits.  Plus as a weird bonus he has traited mind control, so get crazy every once in a while, be unpredictable and have your up close brawler do something unexpected.

Quake #19 (Nick Fury: Agent of SHIELD set)

85 pts

Here's your other lead attacker, she is the highest point value so her leadership roles early on can untoken anyone on the team, also her range paired with precision strike and perplex on the later parts of the dial as well as an enhancement from a friend I haven't gotten to yet means her and Deathlok can pair nicely and bring the noise.

Jimmy Woo 8b (Nick Fury: Agents of SHIELD)

60 pts

Supporting your team and helping tilt the battle in your favor, is Jimmy Woo!  Have him hang a little back and use his probability control to make sure your heavy hitters nail their first attacks.  Also his trait of canceling out willpower and mystics team abilities means you can bring up one of the cheaper support pieces and pair it with Deathlok or Quake to get rid of someone causing you troubles.

Skye #23 (Nick Fury: Agents of SHIELD Set)

45 pts

So I did something different here, having these next two pieces work together in tandem, use their trait regarding line of sight and probability control to work in tandem with their willpower and the next guys perplex to turn Skye into some offense if need be.

Fitz 21 (Nick Fury: Agents of SHIELD set)

35 pts

So here's what makes Fitz useful, the hoverbots thing, Fitz can be in up to 5 places at once, so this guy has options also, Fitz and Skye work together for a free probability control.

So under $15 and this team does some great combos and team work and they all have the SHIELD team ability which lets a shooter get a +1 to their range for each adjacent friendly SHIELD character next to them.  For a power action they get a +1 to the damage as well.

Anyway good luck and happy Clixing.
