NAME = HIRED GUNS


SPECIES = HUMAN
UNIQUENESS = UNIQUE SQUAD (4)
CLASS = CRIMINALS
PERSONALITY = MERCILESS

SIZE/HEIGHT = MEDIUM 5

LIFE = 1

MOVE = 5
RANGE = 5

TRIGGER HAPPY
After revealing an Order Marker on any Crime Lord or Mastermind's Army Card you control, instead of attacking with that Crime Lord or Mastermind, you may attack with the Hired Guns.

DOUBLE ATTACK
When each member of the Hired Guns attacks, he may attack one additional time.

Spoiler Alert!

So that's why you didn't want that power for Madame HYDRA or was it Baron Von Strucker?

Wow, 8 attacks of 3 will be pretty wicked. Plant them next to Black Mask and that's 8 attacks of 4 or adjacent to Cap and get the attack boost along with defense boost. Get them to height and adjacent to BM or Cap and that's even sicker.

At least you'd have to have an OM on a Crime Lord or Mastermind, so it wouldn't get silly with bonding. Though these guys will be really nasty with Red Skull as he can maneuver both Heroes and these guys.

They'll also add some help for Lex.

In order for Red Skull to activate these guys, though, he needs to take a turn himself in order to have an attack phase to activate them instead of.
I like everything I see here except the personality. How about Greedy? They're getting paid, after all.

Yeah, I know. I just meant that if you have OM's on him, you can either take a turn with him and instead of attacking, attack with the Hired Guns or after revealing an OM, you can activate a different Unique Hero. Just a little bit more flexibility for him, that's all.


Or if we want to get fancy Avaricious

Still hoping we change the personality here - just reminding you so it's not lost in the shuffle.
