Aww, yeah, MCP! One of the three games I'm stoked to play as soon as I can see humans other than my wife again!

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:Is Ghost Rider any good in-game? He's one of favorite characters and I want to build around him Oh yeah. If he can hang around the amjor scrum in the game, he punishes opponents not paying attention to him, and Penance Stare is a baller attack. Make sure to take a 2 pointer character with you like Okoye or Toad, so they can hang out at an out-of-the-way objective and be used for the Deal With the Devil Tactics Card.

Genuinely on of my favorite minis games right now. These leaks have been fun, an we still get more later! I wonder how much that Size 5 Apartment building is going to cost.

Padical posted:I bought this game for my 11 year old niece (and so I could collect and paint some X-Men). This will be her first time trying a miniatures game and painting, so hopefully she likes one of these things! Are there any good tutorial missions for this game, especially cooperative ones like the one official ultron co-op mission? I would recommend pre-determining the Crises, and avoid the Ultimate Encounters. The UEs, like Ultron's, are pretty brutal even under normal conditions. They are less co-op experiences IMO, and more akin to boss raids. Feel free to try them out, though! I haven't played a UE since last summer when a small group decided to virtually try Thanos' UE.

Dawgstar posted:Oddly specific assembly question, but is Okoye hard to put together? I see her turn up in stuff all the time thanks to being 2 cost. She has that "two wrists connect to the arms" bit you see where people hold pole weapons like that, but otherwise she's fine. SHURI, on the other hand

Dawgstar posted:Dare I ask? So, the bottom of the panther gauntlets are a separate bit, and the tail of her head braid is its own bit. On top of that, she's doing that dodgy-one foot down pose, so there's that. She is, IMO, the hardest model in the range.

CaptCommy posted:Gamora is definitely one of the worst characters in the game, almost like objectively so. But the cool thing about MCP is the power band is remarkably narrow, so even bad characters can still put in good work. Definitely an adjustment from a lot of other minis games, but bad means something quite different here in MCP That's a weird way to spell "Bullseye."

Len posted:I got a core set for $50 yesterday, it's been sitting on the shelf at the LGS since it came out so my question is are the rules inside still the most up to date? In fact, the rules that come in the box aren't technically the complete rules. It's a "Learn to Play" guide that, while it covers *most* of the rules, the online PDF at AMG's website is the complete reference material. https://www.atomicmassgames.com/rules

Len posted:Does it update frequently or could I rebel against my bosses by printing it out in full color on the company printer? The new stat cards aren't fully released, but I'd be confident that they'll last for a while. The rulebook, well...I'd be less confident in. Depending on your definition of "frequently," I'd say printing is OK (as I think, *think* they'll likely make huge, impactful updates maybe 2x a year at most going forward) I'd say printing in black and white might be a better call if you need them printed.

DLC Inc posted:https://www.atomicmassgames.com/transmissions/introducing-grunts "Sam spam" is about as swarmy as it can get, and that's typically around 7 models. Bumping it to 8 doesn't "feel" too bad, assuming that if I take 2 "parent" models, I only get to deploy 1 "Grunt".

DLC Inc posted:Personally I found the glue I normally use for models (Tamiya Extra Thin) is not hardy enough to stick MCP models to bases. No clue why but they kept snapping off so now I use Gorilla Glue for attaching them to bases and it's perfect. Way better, especially with finicky, weirdass bases like Magneto, Storm, and other doofus models that are attached to weird poo poo. This is precisely what I do as well.

long-rear end nips Diane posted:I think they're just normal models, they went into it a bit during the stream. They're their own affiliation that also includes Cassandra Nova, they're about Dormammu sized, and you can have two of the more generic one on your roster. I will be that dumbass where my roster is the three Sentienels, Nimrod, Cassandra, and Trask. The rest is a smoke screen.

long-rear end nips Diane posted:All I know is that there better be some amazing team tactics cards in there if they want me to start playing Cassandra Nova I know Cassie gets a lot of flak, but she is worth her 5 threat. Being someone with an R4 attack who can't be shot back unless you're in R3 means she can position herself in places where she's safe from retaliation.

Shrecknet posted:About to start a tournament with Big D, because I love fun but hate winning. I poured an 18 die Helios into Mal last night, and did 7 net damage. Like a lot of other factors in MCP, the dice are pretty swingy, and I believe affect a lot of people's opinions on pieces and the game overall. Dormammu is tons of fun, though!

Kaza42 posted:7 net damage is actually about average for 18 dice vs Mal. Very slightly below average by my calculations, but with that many dice the spread is pretty wide Oh, I wasn't upset, past I got really close to dazing him, nd thought it a shame I hadn't. The number one thing I try to impart to people trying to understand the game better is that the dice more variability than they think. This isn't Warmachine, where the math is relatively solved. Personally, I think the swingy-ness of the dice help keep the chill vibe of the game there.

This is an Asmodee thing, and FFG minis games had periods where items were tough to find between printings. It's rumored that the plastic manufacturers they use also have Target as a customer, so I'm guessing their bandwidth might be competitive at times. It's sad but a rule I made for myself about anything I cared about from Asmodee: If you want it, get it within the first 5 weeks of release, or don't see it for a year. It's gotten better over the years, but poo poo like this just happens. Star Wars Armada was having some supply issues as well until recently.

Shrecknet posted:how the gently caress do you do flames? Flames work opposite the way you usually paint, with the brightest colors towards the source of the fire, and darker as you move out. However, Human torch typically is shown has having a red body, so take a red body, with yellow flames, mixing orange and then red as you move away from the body (and a bit of black if you want it to look extra charred.)

John Romero posted:I wonder if they’re gonna chill on releases for a minute to let shatterpoint breathe. or champions, not sure how closely asmodee manages them in relation to FFGs stuff I doubt Champions competes with them for release times, but Shatterpoint might. I wouldn't expect too much of a reprieve, though. People shouted "dead game" when models had a delay during shipping crises during the pandemic, and that was like 1-2 months of delays.
