Hello,
I've been putting in job resumes all day so sorry for the lateness. The figure to look at for today is Gizmo. Gizmo is by far a figure that will be awesome in the new meta.
First up we have TINY TINKERER: Gizmo can use the Flight ability. Give
Gizmo a power action and place a light object from outside the game in
an adjacent square.This ability is awesome because you can fuel your super strength characters damage and also give cover to your stealth figures. Think of this the feat rip it up on a non-super strength character.
The second thing we need to look at is INSANE ENGINEER: Give Gizmo a free action and remove an
adjacent standard object from the game. If that object was a light
object, choose a standard attack power; if that object was a heavy
object, choose a standard damage power. Friendly characters within 4
squares can use the chosen power this turn. This power will be great for characters that have 3 targets and no psychic blast or energy explosion. You can also remove heavies so that your whole force can get prob, perplex, or outwit for a turn. Most importantly your whole team within 4 squares can use support. The attack power element will be the biggest strength since you will be able to give figures powers like tk.
Gizmo over all is sturdy starting with toughness and ok stats. I would say you have to look at him a deus ex machina sort of figure for your games. I would also say tracking how you are going to move on the battlefield is essential.
Hope you had a good break. I will have a new show up soon.
Check you later,
Edward Shelton aka Darklogos
Umm until they change him he can make kryptonite and lanterns which are light objects
ReplyDeleteSuper nice job noticing that...I just assumed it was standard, but it does not say that just light object....then the fun begin
DeleteThank you EDWARD....I was playing at my shop yesterday and someone got a Gizmo and was upset, and I had to explain just how awesome he really is.
ReplyDeleteHis card doesn't limit bringing in special light objects, true, but it does limit his power acquiring to standard objects. So he can't use a kryptonite to gain an attack power (though he could let FF Wasp or a similar fig stand on it for stealth, etc.).
ReplyDeleteThis guy paired with Cyborg Supes is crazy good. I have a 400 point match-up next weekend and am going to try C-Supes with gauntlet, Gizmo, Alfred, FF Switch , and FF Wasp.
Yeah, when HULK came out I would run cyborg supes with HULK MAARINER....He makes his objects as a free action....LEGIT
