This is such a cool character pack, and from the sounds of it, AMG will give him some wild rules. They mention he will buff up the Guardians of the Galaxy and bring some serious vengeance!

Here’s what they have to say about the model:

Players will embrace the Power Cosmic with the Cosmic Ghost Rider Character Pack. This stand-alone powerhouse is hell on the battlefield, clocking in with high mobility, diabolic character displacement, and good old-fashioned pistol play. Equipped with Team Tactic Cards that boost both himself and the Guardians of the Galaxy Affiliation, this star-struck menace is ready to unleash the Spirit of Vengeance!

Cosmic Ghost Rider Marvel Crisis Protocol Rules

Cosmic Ghost Rider definitely lives up to what you’d expect from a being wielding both the Power Cosmic and the powers of a Ghost Rider. This character is a monster that won’t soon be removed from the tabletop as a Threat 6 model with 16 total Stamina and some impressive defenses, with 4’s across the board (That’s 4 Physical, 4 Energy & 4 Mystic defense!). He starts the fight with 9 Stamina on his Healthy side and then comes down to a still respectable 7 Stamina on his Injured side.

With a move into the space age, we see a new staple attack for the Cosmic Ghost Rider. Not just relying on mere chains, he brings to bear his Hellfire Blasters. This attack is going to reach across either a starry expanse or a New York block with a massive Range 4. Although it has the downside of only generating a single power (don’t worry, we’ll see why this isn’t a big deal later), foes are sure to melt under this Strength 6 attack.

He has some pretty impressive base stats, with 16 Stamina, tons of immunities, flight, and decent defense. Then, with a strength 6 attack, he’s shaping up to be strong, but his abilities are a little insane.

However, maybe the wildest thing is if you roll a full house of dice on his Penace attack he changes all dice rolls to skulls! This is just crazy, and even though it may be rare when it happens, it will be quite the experience.

When you find Cosmic Ghost Rider up close and personal, gazing into your eyes, its not a look of love or longing he’s giving you. The Cosmic Ghost Rider has found that he can route the powers of a Herald of Galactus into the powers of a Ghost Rider, providing him with a Power Cosmic Penance Stare. This attack may cost him 6 power, but it’s going to absolutely hammer the opponent with a Strength 12 hit. Not only do the rules of this attack prevent the target character from gaining power, if Cosmic Ghost Rider rolls one of each type of die result (other than a blank) on his 12 dice, he’s going to modify every one of the target characters Block results to a Failure. There is no hiding your sins from this guy.

What is a Ghost Rider without their Hellcycle? This character showcases the power of a Riders vehicle via the Active superpower Interstellar Hellcycle. This is a variable cost superpower that you can spend between 1 and 5 power on, allowing Cosmic Ghost Rider to place himself within range X (equal to the power you spent!) of his current position. It may only be able to be used once per turn, but when this character comes roaring across the table with his medium movement and placing himself Range 5, no evil is safe from his gaze.

Then he can just fly around the board with his Hellcycle, can pull in characters, can make free attacks, change up dice rolls, and gets free power and tokens! Overall, a pretty wild character card and super fun.

Cosmic Ghost Rider Team Tactic Cards

We also saw his character card, which you can check out here. When with the Guardians, they can all become Big Dumb Heroes!

This not only sounds cool but will let them all add one die to both their attack and defense rolls. Then, you can just teleport to an objective token, score a VP, and even move again!

Pretty wild stuff when you consider he already has another teleport built into his kit. Last but not least, for Black Order, he can use other characters’ power to deal damage (to himself or the enemy). Even if you damage him, he gains power, so a cool way to use other characters’ power to buff him up and deal damage.
