It makes having multiple ranged attacks a nice feature.  You can do the real damage to your primary target, but if you miss him/her you can still use the attack to hit secondary targets.

Thanks to that TWG "invent a superhero" contest I won a video game, which I finally picked up from Spriggan and returned to Media Play, where I exchanged it for $40 of clix (thanks TWG!)  I got a veteran Ultimates Hawkeye who starts with RCE, 3 base damage, and an attack of 11.  And 3 ranged attacks.  And the Ultimates team ability.  I'm itching to try him out.

Holy crap. I really wanted a Hawkeye, but I just got the Rookie, who's actually a SHIELD member instead of an Ultimates guy. I got a chance to try out my Veteran Punisher against Mustard the other day, though, and he's pretty sweet.

Does Mustard live in Logan also, or do you guys make lots of trips?

(And I was wrong - I have the veteran Hawkeye.)

So I went to Games people play tonight for some clix action and unbenoced to me it was a booster draft.  Even though it was an Ultimates draft they let me by DC.  So my team was V Scarecrow, E Green Lantren (hal Jordan) and U Eclipso.  There was only one other person there, but I kicked his butt.  Doc Oc and Ghost Rider are no match for GL.

I won a LE Peter Parker!  Yea me!
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

Thank Goodness! They've finally announced another DC set, and while we have to wait for February I'm still quite pleased--it sounds like it's going to be a good set, especially with more Kingdom Come figures (come to me, armored KC Green Lantern!).

Yeah, Ultimates wasn't all that I had hoped. Mutant Mayhem should be good, though, if only for the feats and battlegrounds.
