Just bumping for comments on the bolded. I've played Mastermind dozens of times and not seen it as problematic, so I want to make sure I'm playing the right types of tests here.

C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: C3G Requests for Reevaluation

That doesn't really answer who to take him against.

C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: C3G Requests for Reevaluation

Oh. Well, my general policy is just pick typical stuff and don't counterdraft. I mean, we know that a Mastermind Pod will lose to Cable and Dark Phoenix but that doesn't prove much. Generic bonding armies are my usual go-to.

What are the typical 1000 point armies in the competitive scene nowadays?

We haven't played standard 1000-point armies in a while. We mix it up a lot.

Re: C3G Requests for Reevaluation

Well met!

Speaking of mixing it up, the Gang's next game has each player fielding a 750 point Delta+ army, 200 or less of which is a single super villain that may be assigned any General, Species, Class, or Personality that the player wishes. Baron Zemo could be an Utgar Orc Champion, and bond with the Blade or Heavy Gruts, for example.

Conan with Heavy Grut bonding would be an insane amount of melee offense.

I've started using the Wrecking Crew (for 800 points) in a lot of testing too. Throw in a 200 point ally like Conan, Black Panther, or Kraven when playing at 1000, any one of those 3 makes for a solid clean up unit after the Wrecking Crew have done their job.

Isn't the Wrecking Crew pretty swingy? I have played them a few times and I've had games where they pretty much Wreck everything when you get hot on the roll but there are other games where they were pretty weak. I doesn't seem like you can use that as a reliable costing point and it would seem to make more sense to use a non swingy (or even d20 reliant teams) that are consistently worth their points. It may just be my inconsistent luck with the D20. I know things tend to work out for the averages long term but my luck is either all good or all bad each game. I mean I did just get an entire Dr. Doom/Doombot army essentially rendered useless in one round when Doom whiffed on defense and then I rolled a 4 for Doombots.

Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those.
