I agree that for 50 points they are a good pick, but I wouldn't call them overpowered. If they were common then yes, they would be awesome.

These guys come out good in team and FFA games, where you sometimes get the time to clone.
In solo it's much harder to clone, if you clone and choose not to attack. It could be fatal for your army. Not to forget that the cloning might fail.

And yes 6 move and range, that's positive. But then again only 2 attack and 3 defence. That ain't much.

And I will fight, Yes I will fight

We tryed Marro against every other kind of guy they could break and run
for ever with 6 movent. We tested them many times they killed CHAROS(Big 210 point dragon) And cloned back to full force.
Should we be asking if these guys should at least cost 100. :shock:
Being unique means once they are thinned out a bit it's actually a bit of a risky even trying to clone with 1 or 2 alive without being on water, and then even if you do fail you're more than likely set up for an elevated attack. Also if you clone with 3 members left alive you're pretty much wasting the activation. Awesome unit however, though too bad their sculpts look a tad bad now compared to the new Marro in quality. Shows how far the game has grown.

Marros + Thanos ...and my own question.

My opponent absolutely loves them and picks them early in most drafts. We only have one set so its rare that I get them since we can't both have them given the situation. Personally I prefer the more expensive Krav Maga but the Marro Warriors are one of the game's best buys.

Someone asked about using them with Thanos, I did this the other night (I actually got them) I had them Marros, Thanos, Drake and Dead Eye. He had the Hulk, Venom, the Tarns and Elgrim. I'd report that the tactic worked well but as it happened we never got to find out. He was really testing his ground with Hulk (1st use) and was too aggressive against Drake so that he tied all his markers on Hulk and Thanos and Dead Eye basically took over the game. Thanos + height + attack glyph..mean ranged attack. Once Hulk fell and I took the building heights..never got the marros into the game.

But his use has brought us a question, we have been allowing Marro Warriors to clone while engaged, is this correct?

I don't believe there's anything against it on the card.

We had a question come up during today's tourney regarding water clone.


Can you water clone into an engagement?

Meaning can the newly cloned Marro be placed next to an opponents figure?

It seems perfectly legal to clone into an engagement. The only conditions for the new Marro is that it must be adjacent (to the Marro that is cloning) and on the same level.

Agreed. The card just says that the space needs to be adjacent and on the same level as the cloner.

Hmmm.... just went and re-read the card, and I'd have to agree with Heroic Monkey and Nadom it doesn't say you can't.

How did you guys resolve it?

We played it that way but Shades Fan and I were both wondering it as it happened.

Keep spawning Marro Warriors until Thanos can return from the dead. Tried it recently, but the MW became the principle target of the game. My other figure was Ne Gok Sa because he has great staying power for the point cost.

Let me know if anyone else has had any luck with this one.

I did, with crixus instead of NGS. It dominated!

I'd put a sig here, but I can't think of one. Greetings from my PSP!

Yeah, with 5 Attack and One Shield Defense, he's awesome in that army.

I always thought that the Marro were way underpriced, simply because, as a wise man once said:

"Kill all you want, we'll make more"

Also I would like to address that the Zombies have a similar ability (Zombies Rise Again), but still cost 10 points more. I find that weird.
