The Book of Scarlet Spiders
The Book of Scarlet Spiders C3G MARVEL WAVE 27 YOUNG MARVELS Comic PDF Mini PDF The figure used for this unit is a Heroclix figure from the Avengers Assemble set. Its model number and name are #005 / Scarlet Spider. _________________________________________________________________ Character Bio - The Scarlet Spiders were created when the promising young hero known as MVP was tragically killed during a training exercise run by the Initiative, the government organization created to train young heroes after the passing of the Superhuman Registration Act. In an attempt to save face, the Initiative created a clone of MVP to take his place and keep the death a secret. They created three extra clones besides; these other three clones were equipped with versions of Tony Stark's Iron Spider armor and acted as elite black ops agents for the Initiative, going by the codename Scarlet Spiders. Like their predecessor, two of the three Scarlet Spiders were killed in action. The last surviving Scarlet Spider left the Initiative and his current whereabouts are unknown. _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

Re: The Book of Scarlet Spiders (Design Phase)
NAME = SCARLET SPIDERS
SECRET IDENTITY = SPECIES = CLONE UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE SQUAD (3) CLASS = AGENTS PERSONALITY = TRICKY SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5 LIFE = 1 MOVE = 6 RANGE = 4 ATTACK = 3 DEFENSE = 4 POINTS = 150 SWING LINE 4 Instead of his normal move, a Scarlet Spider may move up to 4 spaces with Swing Line. When moving with Swing Line, Scarlet Spider has the Flying special power, but may not move up or down more than 40 levels in a single swing, and will not take any leaving engagement attacks. IRON SPIDERS When a Scarlet Spider defends against a non-adjacent attack, one shield will block all damage. When a Scarlet Spider defends against an adjacent attack, add one automatic shield to whatever is rolled. Whenever a Scarlet Spider defends against an attack and receives no damage, that Scarlet Spider may immediately use his Swing Line special power.

Re: The Book of Scarlet Spiders (Design Phase)
Okay, so everything's fairly straightforward here - I toyed with the idea of giving these guys more of a hook, but I like them simple, and I think they'll play well. They should be fun for Fury team-ups, since they finally give him another C3G Agent squad to buddy up with, and Swing Line will get them into Spider-Family/Spider-Verse synergy that I hope to get rolling at some point.
(I had kinda de-prioritized these guys, but I figured it couldn't hurt to kick another unit into that Marvel Legacy booster) |

Re: The Book of Scarlet Spiders (Design Phase)
No distinction between normal or SA for the defense powers?

Re: The Book of Scarlet Spiders (Design Phase)
I like it! Simple, solid, and adds to some synergy webs.

Re: The Book of Scarlet Spiders (Design Phase)
I like it as-is for the squad but if Iron Spider(s) is re-used on a Unique Hero then it may need some special attack restrictions.
Cool design. |

Re: The Book of Scarlet Spiders (Design Phase)
I thought about Iron Spiders not working against SAs, but as squad figures, they're fairly squishy anyway and I didn't think they needed the extra vulnerability. My intent is for Iron Spiders to be a signature power for them, not a re-use power; Spidey in the Iron Spider armor has spider-sense and would want a slightly different approach to a defense power anyway.

Re: The Book of Scarlet Spiders (Design Phase)
Nick Fury interaction is interesting, but not stronger than SHIELD Agents anyway. No concerns here.
