Beta Ray Bill & Ulik 2

 

Beta Ray Bill & Ulik 4

Joining him is Ulik, the strongest and fiercest of all Rock Trolls. Armed with knuckle dusters made from the same metal as Thor’s mighty hammer, Ulik won’t stop swinging until his foes are smashed to dust. Alongside the beautifully sculpted miniatures of these characters, this pack also includes three Team Tactic cards that unlock even more ways for players to use them in battle.

New Marvel Crisis Protocol Rules for Ulik

Ulik Marvel Crisis Rules

His basic attack employs one of Ulik’s signature weapons, a pair of brass-knuckle like Pounders that let him, well, pound on his opponents with added force. With Strength 6 and a Push special rule that can move characters of Size 4 or less, Ulik doesn’t have to pay any Power if he wants to dish out some solid physical strikes.

However, if you’ve got 5 Power burning a hole in your pocket, you can go all in with the true might of this Rock Troll. When Ulik unleashes his full fury he can Shatter Mountains, Shatter Bones, a Strength 9 Physical attack that inflicts the Staggered special condition on the target, and has the chance of causing Shatter, rattling his target so hard that it gives them an Activated token!

For a basic attack, it’s quite strong! Then, Shatter Mountains is extremely strong with Strength 9, which gives Stagger or can hit them so hard it can give an activated token. However, five power is a decent amount.

Ulik Marvel Crisis Rules 2

Both of his attacks are Range 2, but there are ways Ulik can dish out some punishment to foes who are further away. The first is the straightforward option: pick up something big and heavy and chuck it at ‘em with Bad Manners, an active superpower that lets Ulik throw Size 4 or smaller terrain. Or he can build up some momentum with a Short advance and fling himself into the air with the Crushing Leap superpower, landing within Range 2 of his position, after which he can deliver a Pounders attack.

Like many other characters in his weight class, Ulik has a couple of innate superpowers to represent his tremendous, superhuman strength and durability. The first is Trollish Temper, which like the Asgardians grants an extra Power during the Power Phase, and Trollhide, which lets him reduce the damage he suffers by 1 to a minimum of 1 point.

Then, he’ll be tough as Trollhide reduces damage, Trollish Temper gives him an additional power, and Crushing Leap is pretty awesome. So overall, he should be able to smash through big enemies! But at five threat it will be interesting to see if he will land in affiliation team builds. or go rogue and replace a staple like Juggernaut or Hulk Buster/ Hulk in other lists.
