He is a Tigers fan.

That is going to be awesome. Heroes fighting heroes always makes for the best story lines.
2016 feels like a long ways off. Glad to see Rosario coming back, she was great in season 1.

[IAmBatman]

Cool stuff. I've always found Punisher to be at his best when part of another hero's storyline.

Now I want to see Shane pop up in Civil War, murder a costumed villain now working for Stark, then CA tells him his brand of help is not wanted and he is never seen again. It won't happen but it would be great.

Eh, it's still filming (at least, I haven't seen anything about production being done), they could slip that in I'd think.

[Yodaking]

Oh they could pull it off, I just don't think they will try. I read recently that the movie MCU people are not all that interested in the TV MCU stuff. Writing a new scene for the movie which features a cameo for a TV introduced character seems unlikely. Although if they did go through with it, they could use Absorbing Man or another villain first seen on AoS as the guy he kills, then they wouldn't need an origin/explanation as too who either of the characters are. It would just be one quick scene that ties all 3 aspects (Films/ABC shows/Netflix shows) of the MCU together.

[Arch-vile]

Jon Bernthal is the perfect Punisher. This is exciting!

[TrollBrute]

Yeah, Bernthal's going to be a good fit, I think. I'm curious to see whether Punisher will be a major character in Season 2, or if it will be just a few episodes.

and
Wasp, Ant-Man, Fire Ant Swarm x67

Versus

Opponents
Thor, Blob, SHIELD Agents x1
and
Vixen, US Agent, Superman

We are definitely taking advantage of the current lack of start zone limits and hope the insane number of ants will be overwhelming. Especially with a d20 ability that bypasses Superman, Thor, Blob, and USAgent's defensive abilities.

The match is tomorrow night. How do you think it will go?

This is most likely an autowin for team not-ants on 90% of maps once Yellowjacket and Wasp are down, a height of 1 doesn't really work in Heroscape.

The ants can still use swarm tunneling, right?

Which means bugger all if Supes and Thor stand back to back on 2 hexes of raised terrain (which the vast majority of maps have at least one instance of) and it becomes impossible for the Ants to engage them.

Right, I've not played them in a while.

It's pretty much up to Jan to carry her team there I'd think, she miiight be able to do it with smart enough play and the right map. Though it would be a lot better if she and Ant-Man were in separate armies.
