CHARGED SONIC CANNON SPECIAL ATTACK
Range Special. Attack 5 + Special.
Choose 3 spaces in a straight line from Klaw. All figures on the chosen spaces, and all figures other than Klaw within 1 space of the chosen spaces, are affected by this special attack. Roll 1 fewer attack die for each space Klaw moved this turn. Each figure rolls defense dice separately. Symbiotes roll 1 fewer defense die against this special attack.

SONIC DISRUPTION
After an enemy figure within 4 clear sight spaces of Klaw rolls defense against a normal attack from a figure you control, you may roll the 20-sided die, adding 2 to the roll if the enemy figure is a Symbiote and adding 2 to the roll if the attacking figure has the Ambitious or Brilliant personality. If you roll 10 or higher, subtract one skull, shield, or blank from the enemy figure's defense.

BODY OF SOUND
Once per round, when Klaw is attacked by an opponent's figure and at least 1 skull is rolled, you may ignore the attack. You may then either roll an unblockable attack die against a figure within 4 clear sight spaces of Klaw or remove 2 Wound Markers from this Army Card.

SUPER STRENGTH

Army Test
Map: Artic Redoubt (1 random glyph in the Fortress)
Units: Kalw (240), Captain America (Steve), Iron Man (Avengers), Spider-Ham and Zombie (1000)
VS Doctor Octopus (Sinister Six), Kraven, Electro, Sandman, Vulture and Mysterio (1000)

Spoiler Alert!

Normal Attack Damage: None

Special Attack: More effective than his normal so I got him in position and used this the whole time for 3 wounds on Sandman, 2 on Kraven, and 2 on Electro

Sonic Disruption: Triggered quite a few times in my games, succeeded 60% of times per my notes which is slightly above average. Most of them were pretty solid wins too so a bump of 1-2 to the roll would only have changed a couple of them.

Body of Sound: This power is pretty nasty, early game you get free unblockables, then you can convert it to life in the late game.

Kraven was hunting Klaw. Captain America was Zombie's master at the start.

Kraven and Sandman went after Klaw early, but between Klaw and Cap, Kraven fell quickly followed by Sandman. From there Iron Man was able to take out Electro, Vulture was able to finish off Cap, but Zombie picked up his own Amulet and went to town taking out Vulture in 2 turns. Mysterio was able to get the last wound onto Klaw to take him out, but it wasn't enough, Ock and Mysterio were taken out by Iron Man.

Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes): Zombie 1 wound, Iron Man 2 wounds, Spider-Ham unwounded.

Army Test
Map: Artic Redoubt (1 random glyph in the Fortress)
Units: Klaw (240), Scientist Supreme (Monica), A.I.M. Agents (x3), Red Skull (Hasbro) (800) VS Mister Incredible, Elastigirl (Helen Parr), Violet Parr, Dash Parr and Jack-Jack Parr (800)

Spoiler Alert!

Normal Attack Damage: Used it once as I was moving into position and landed a wound on Mister Incredible.

Special Attack: Again used this mostly, but Klaw fell quicker this game with Mister Incredible focusing him, only 2 wounds on Mister Incredible with this.

Sonic Disruption: Had a bit worse luck, only hit 45% of my rolls, but the sample size was smaller. The AIM getting a boost was nasty.

Body of Sound: Stopped a couple of big attacks from Mister Incredible, adding a wound to him, but it wasn't enough to stop the onslaught.

Elastigirl was on babysitting duty

Mister Incredible just went after Klaw, knowing he would be an annoyance, and took him out right at the start of round 3. Dash and Violet were on Agent duty and took most of them out before Violet fell to their attacks, leaving Dash to follow the next turn. Elastigirl and Jack-Jack took out Red Skull but the last 2 AIM and Monica were able to finish off the wounded Incredibles.

Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes): 2 AIM Agents remaining and Moninca with 1 wound.

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: He seems slightly juiced for his points right now, but plays fine, I think some light tweaks would have him on his way to being good.
