DC Collateral Damage
« on: October 08, 2005, 04:22:42 PM »
Next DC set is set, and it's got Kyle Rayner and the Click Brick LE is Krypto.  They're also adding new cards that are unique objects with new rules.

Azrael could be a cool one. I wasn't really into Fantastic Forces, and Icons held little appeal for me, but both of these new sets look great.

Icons was a 50/50 set for me, I really didn't think any of the the titans needed to be redone except for Beast Boy nor did Cyborg deserve an Unique that's almost the same as the REV that's still legal.  Don't think we needed another Cheetah either or a RA's Unique.

Basically all the figs that were unplayable, ie Scarecrow, or had retired was worth getting a new figure that wasn't just a repeat of Hypertimes.  If they were in the last 2 sets they really shouldn't have been made unless there was something wrong with the figure.

Aside from Luthor the only figures I wanted from this set were the Jokers, Scarecrow, Bizzaro and the new Beast Boy and Robin. So maybe I should have just bought them off ebay, but then again we wouldn't be getting all those free card sets if I had done that.  Also I happen to really like Terra, man is she an underrated figure, a 60 point tactical nuke since you can use the TT TA to make sure she's on that sweet spot click with PW and 4 damage then you can TK her out into the middle of a group of enemies and use Nova Blast.  It's sad to see figures get torn apart by players becasue it's not another U Thor or generic power/build combo that 20 other figures have.

With Collateral Damage I'm quite happy that only 3 figures are going to be repeats and the rest are going to be new.  Now if they'd only get rid of Bystanders, at least they're adding back in Generics and hopefully one will be a medic.

Some pics from an advertisement.

I have to say that Ragman sculpt is pretty cool (even if I have no idea who the character is).  Also notice how Kyle has no sword or shield like he does on WK site which has started the rumor that he'll have 3 different sculpts.

WK posted the first feat and it's pretty dang cool

Choose a character.

Characters with the same team symbol as the character and a lower point value than the character are not dealt pushing damage when a second token is placed upon them if they are adjacent to the character at the beginning or the end of an action.

Nice. Now there's finally an excuse for having Leadership on all those high point characters who can't get any other use out of it.

Awesome, the IL ata is up:

----------------------
Prerequisite: Injustice League Team Ability

All friendly characters with the Injustice League team symbol have the following team ability instead of the Injustice League team ability:

When a character attempts to Outwit a power possessed by a member of this team, roll one six-sided die. On a result of 1-3, Outwit cannot be used by that character on this team member that turn.
---------------------

Also they posted an Awesome REV set, a monkey (can't remember the name) and the brain, where each of the REV figs are a different sculpt.  WK is really starting to step up with doing new things.
