Some cool stuff there. The +1 Ammo for a Sidekick is nice (mostly for Red Hood or Gordon, shame it's not available to Free Agents as Huntress would love it!), and being able to hand out MkII Bat Armour is decent if you find yourself with some funding left over (as I often do, going Hero heavy). In fact, the options for Sidekicks, Leaders and FAs to have a few ways to spend leftover Rep and funding is a good move, means that you can use up those resources when you're playing an all-character crew that ends up a few Rep/$ off.

For example:

Old rules: 297/S200
Batman (Origins) 144/$0
Nightwing 85/$0
Tim Drake (AC) 68/$200

New rules: 300/$900
Batman (Origins) + Upgraded Batsuit + Hidden Magazine 144/$400
Nightwing+Mentor 88/$200
Tim Drake (AC) + EMP 68/$300

Rounds things out nicely, and hands out a couple of nice boosts. Also, Holy Endurance 10 Batman, Batman!

Starfire has now been spotted...

Pics of a model, or just the name in a team list?

Starfire's model is in the book and spoiled on the fan Facebook page.

Titans have 18 models available, though the list I have seen is VERY blurry. But, it looks like it includes at least these as-yet-unreleased models:
Bushido, Starfire, Superboy, Supergirl, Tempest and Wonder Girl.
Certainly there are other unreleased models in that list, but I can't make out all the names, and I'm not familiar enough with the Titans to guess at them.

Though, it does seem like Beast Boy is not on the list.

EDIT never mind, just found them via ToaTS.

Starfire:

Secret Six list seems to be:

Catman, Bane, Black Alice, Cheshire, Daedshot, Harley Quinn, King Shark, Mad Hatter, Parademon, Ragdoll, Scandal Savage, and Stryx.

I'm still trying to parse out the 21 members of Suicide Squad. I think I only have four missing.

a little bigger than 21

Yes, but the list of models from the new expansion has a list of 21. Most of them not yet released models from KM.

Damn, that Secret Six crew might get me into this game. Loved the original run from Gale Simone.

Black Alice?

Chechire?

Sounds like were getting more Wonderland Gang support

Does anyone know what the cold rule does?

I wouldn't know...living in the U.s. means we get KM stuff...eventually...but not now. I am still waiting on my pre-order from a U.S. Brick and Mortar.

Looks like Tales removed their post with all the spoilers.
classic KM move...why create hype...

...and a little research seems to show the release has been "delayed" and will hit sometime in the next week or two...
I think KM is trying to be the worst communicator in the industry.

The first release for next month.



Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for any news from Wayland for the Flarrow book.

Pretty nice model, not one I'm after straight away but quite cool nonetheless, and one step closer to a Deathstroke crew.

Did anyone manage to compile a list of Suicide Squad characters before the pics went AWOL?

New promos



Meh.

I should clarify - I like that they're not must haves, but wanted a Real Bullock (BTAS)!

Yeah, a proper Bullock would be awesome.

Any word yet on places other than direct from Knight Models getting their Flarrow books in? I'm getting a little antsy.

The SHIELD and Hydra stuff is never going to see the light of day, is it? :(

Seems Marvel kinda fell off the face of the earth. I can understand it was a lot of releases all at once, but it would be uplifting to see some news or rumors on whats coming soon for it

To be perfectly honest, Knight pretty much made sure the Spidey game was dead on arrival. The inability to get hold of it outside their own site (and thus forcing you to pay international shipping), the inflated prices and a frankly poor selection of initial minis (in both quality and variety).

The Marvel Universe game is definitely going to get a following, it got a big initial release, a few more last month in a release wave that was very heavy on the DC stuff with the Flarrow book, and I expect at least a couple more blisters for it this month.

I can't decide whether I'd rather have Knight Models get the 3 initial Marvel factions all up to 50 points, or whether I'd rather they release more factions at the 36 point mark.

The game is at a pretty weird state this month, with Avengers at 50 (if you buy the X-Men starter), Guardians at 47 (what are you going to do with 3 points? Howard the Duck?) and X-Men lagging behind at 43.

I say get some villains out! I find the game plays fine at 30-40, it's not like some games where you absolutely need to have a minimum amount of stuff to get a good game (I've actually had good fun pooling the X-men and Avengers sets and playing Winner Stays On 1v1s, you lose, you pick a new hero from the pool and keep a running total of wins for each player, game ends when you've both used all the heroes, or a set number of rounds have been played).

While I fully support a 3 point Howard The Duck, I'd rather see a couple of bad guy sets. Ronan, Nebula, The Other and the cyborg miniboss guy from GotG as a Guardians villain set, Magneto, Witch, Quicksilver and Mystique in a Brotherhood of Mutants set, Red Skull, Zola, Crossbones and Winter Soldier for Hydra... Those would also add some heroes as well, as the Twins and Winter Soldier (maybe even Nebula) would be multi faction minis.

Yeah, I'd like a Magneto to be neutral myself (been reading the comics through Marvel Unlimited recently and he literally has been a good guy as often as he's been a baddy from the ones I've read).

Anyone remember their teaser schedule? I was kinda hoping there'd be one today.

It was during the 80's when they really got into him being a Survivor, and went into his past of being a NAZI hunter and how he lost both his families. That and they established Xavier as his best friend in the world, so while they are arch enemies, they are still the closest friend each other has in the world

Woo hoo got my Arrow book today- what questions were still outstanding?

Are there any rules for specific vehicles other than the Batmobile?

How exactly do the Team rules work, is it just a straight pick from the list or are there limits/restrictions?

There are no rules for specific vehicles in the book.
Portions of the already spoilered Batmobile card are shown, and the sample pics are of the Batmobile & swat van.

The team rules are pretty much pick from the list.
Normal rep & $ apply, though free agent/sidekick limits don't.
General henchmen are not available unless they are on the list themselves (Sinister Six's Parademon perhaps? I didn't recognize any Henchman on the lists)

And the teams themselves have special rules as well- Suicide Squad starts exploding if they fall behind on VP

Awww man, I need to know more about the Secret Six rules.
I want to know their roster as well, as there have more than Six of them over time.

Cool, thanks!

Secret 6: Catman, AO Bane, Black Alice, Chesire, Deadshot, Harley, King Shark, Mad Hatter, Parademon, Ragdoll, Scandal Savage & Strix.
They have a few special strategies, give vps if villains take them out, and gain teamwork 2/All if 6 or less in the crew.

And I worked out that Teen Titans lets you do Team Robin at just under 300 points

Who's on the full Titans list?

Nightwing, Aqualad, Batgirl, Bunker, Cyborg, Damian, Hawk, Dove, Kid Flash, Raven, Jason Todd, Ravager, Tim Drake, Roy Harper, Starfire, Superboy (!) Supergirl(!) Solstice & Wondergirl

Also as written Team membership is a trait, so they can add more members to the teams down the road (Miss Martian perhaps if Netflix picks it up?)
