The C3G Book of Thanos

Thanks for the rule clarification. It felt like I was missing something and doing something wrong. The answer is usually in some obvious place (like on the card), but I don't always see it so asking the experts is the route I often take.

I think Thanos with the gauntlet is formidable if he is with others in an army and can use "Spurned by Death". The ability to use the X om to take an additional turn is huge and if you do it to finish off someone you can then take even another turn with that destroyed character. Since you often know exactly where your opponent's om's are you can try to focus on that and get them to waste some turns. Although I didn't use it, the ability to transport anywhere on the map could be huge as well, in order to escape or reach an advantageous position. Any high powered hero with high life and/or defense who uses the infinity gauntlet with all infinity stones is bound to be a pretty brutal foe.

How much points would you consider Thanos for if you wanted to play a match where he starts with the Gauntlet and all the Gems? Just a general estimate.

[Arkham]

I'd say ~850 is reasonable.

Yeah it's really tricky since if you are doing him against the world he won't get a chance to use Spurned by Death which accounts for a lot of his points but then the Guantlet...I've wondered...and asked...the same question.

Here a page back is one example of someone actually running it...

This is why someone needs to design Mistress Death, Nebula, the Blood Brothers, the Black Order, and Terraxia. Not to mention the Thanos Stone Golems. So he can always use Spurned by Death.

You know you can start an LD as a retired Hero Spidey.

While we are updating this for the start of round stuff I think we should make this change. Also switched the removal of wounds and placing cause I think that just reads better.

Looks good.
