New Marvel Crisis Protocol Rules: Red Guardian
Red Guardian puts his mutant power to good use when he’s up close and personal. His basic Strike attack is charged by his energy field, hitting at Strength 5 and pushing his target a Short distance with each impact. For an even more devastating hit, he can channel his power through his shield with a Siberian Shield Slam, which hits a bit harder and transforms that push into a throw on targets of Size 3 or less. One slam, and he can send an opponent flying back into its allies, disrupting their formation and spreading chaos!
It would only make sense he has some powerful attacks and does plenty with his shield. Plus, being able to ignore LOS is pretty sweet.
Like the other famous shield-wielding national icon, Red Guardian can hurl his shield at range, bouncing the vibranium disk off a few skulls before it returns to his hand. Shield Throw is a Range 4 attack that ignores both LOS and Cover and has the Ricochet special rule to allow him to target a secondary character within Range 3 of his initial target.
Of course, Red Guardian likes to stand at the center of the Unbreakable Red Line of the Winter Guard. His two superpowers help him to fulfill this role. Combining his innate mutant powers and the suit of the Red Guardian, he can be a thorn in the side of your opponent’s offense.
He stays strong in the middle of the board, making him a great addition if you need some muscle. Plus, he will have even more power each time he’s damaged.
Ursa Major Rules
Using his oversized paws, Ursa Major can perform a Bear-Handed Slap as his basic attack, a Strength 5 rake of his claws with the Bleed Special condition. But if he wants to really leave a mark, he can pay 3 Power to perform a Bear-Armed Brawler attack. This Strength 7 attack allows him to throw a character of Size 4 or less and imposes the Stagger condition on his target. Big characters aren’t the only things Ursa Major will be tossing around, either! His Ursine Temper power lets the big, cuddly guy pick up and throw terrain features of Size 3 or less.
As you would expect, he has some seriously powerful attacks, and even his basic attack can cause a bleed. Then he can also throw and stagger characters, so plenty of projection from this guy.
The first way he compensates for his speed is the Charge power, which lets him make a move action followed by an attack action. He can come lumbering up on all fours before backhanding his target with a quick swipe. If done right after a normal advance, it lets him cross almost the same distance as a character with a Long movement range!
The second way he can close with the enemy is through his Aggressive innate power. Every time he suffers damage from an attack that targets him, this bear can advance Short toward the attacking character. Each injury has the potential to draw him in deeper toward the enemy line, where Ursa Major shines the brightest.
You have to be careful when attacking Ursa Major, as every time he suffers damage, he gets to make a move for free! Plus, for only two power, the charge is nice as well. Watch out for this character when he gets five power on him!
