Bumped Episodes 12-16 have been added.
-
As a rough order of magnitude, how many comics do you think you've read while preparing and designing cards for this game?
-
Added Episodes 10 and 11 - I've been behind on the FFG forums sorry.
-
Added Episode 9, enjoy! The whole gang is back in town!

4 minutes ago, maniakmedic said:I did notice a couple of typos on the Joining the Crew card.
There should be a comma after defeated, and "villains discard pile" should be "villain's discard pile" in the Forced Interrupt section. Also, under the Forced Reaction section, there should be a comma after "phase".
Not trying to nit-pick, just saw them and thought I'd mention it.
Thanks! Always point these out I add them to my notebook to update in my best revision

For me it's Black Cat's forced response. I missed the trigger in my first like you said 200+ games. She's so good I'd always forget about her enter's play forced response. It can hurt or help you too!

I’ve worked on some challenge modes to be mixed in with standard or expert villains.

You can just put an environment card into play to begin the game. You can use challenge 1 with any of the current villains. And I’m making a challenge card for each other scenario (just mutagen formula still to figure out). They do as much as they can to provide a challenge while still mainly focusing on the cards in a villains deck. Rhino example attached.
its made to give the players interesting choices... is it worth it to get rid of that side scheme? Can we handle a charge?
maniakmedic and Lily Chen reacted to this -
Nope. So you won’t draw for spider senses etc. the condition completely circumvents the attack/scheme
sverigesson reacted to this -
I’ll look at other ways to do it. The point of the card is to keep players at the edge. If you get super high (spend too much time in either form) then the environment punishes you. This will hopefully force Green Goblin to flip more often.
-
Mutagen formula for sure. On BGG I’ve been working on some 1 card custom additions that increase each villains difficulty. Here is the one for Risky Business if you want to try it out. It keeps with his shallow kill theme and resource management (you need to manage when your team runs out of cards in deck).

Added Episode 8.5 getting back in touch with our team Canadian, Lester!
-
I'd rather they reboot Warhammer Conquest as a star wars game 😛
-
Not yet but if you are attending Gencon you can probably count on an FFG and community event or two 😛
-
I think the problem is they released an early wave, my store in the US still hasn't gotten it's second shipment but some others have started to get them (TC, etc). Hopefully they reach you overseas soon, I've seen Green Goblin at some chain stores (Target / Barnes and Noble). over here so that may be an options too.

I just ordered the burger token boxes. I plan to use them to store the heroes + nemesis sets, then I keep my aspect cards in a binder. I'm a binder person 😛

Ultron Expert vs Multi-player
in Marvel Champions: The Card Game
Posted
If you want some tips against expert Ultron look for some AOE style skills. Squirrel girl can ping all the drones for 1 (wiping the board).
Black Panthers energy daggers can do the same. Or be saved for the end GK long everything for 2.
Consider bringing tac team and getting 2-3 out before you flip Ultron so you can clear the drones each round and focus damage on Ultron.
Relentless Assault can also help manage droids and focus down Ultron.
