Crimson Dynamo & Darkstar: $39.99
These should be a fun addition to the game with some cool rules. We expect to see some more character and team tactics cards soon, so hopefully, we’ll know what they can do before the pre-order finishes up on 8/31/2022.
Here’s what they have to say about the new pack:
Dimitri Bukharin is the fifth man to bear the title of Crimson Dynamo and the current leader of the Winter Guard. Following the failure of his predecessor Yuri Petrovich, Bukharin was given the suit of power armor and code name to fight at the behest of his superiors.
Laynia Petrovna is Darkstar, a former member of a super team assembled to reclaim the elusive Black Widow. Darkstar defected to the United States where she has fought as part of the Black Widow’s elite strike force. Born with the power to access the energy of the Darkforce dimension, she can wield in numerous ways.
Crimson Dynamo Marvel Crisis Protocol Rules & Card Revealed!
As a leader of the Winter Guard, Crimson Dynamo brings a mixture of hard-hitting attacks and support tactics to the battlefield. While he isn’t the quickest armored warrior, his sturdy defenses and affordable, hard-hitting attacks make up for his lack of maneuverability.
Long-ranged strikes are critical to Crimson Dynamo’s attacks. His armor can produce a potent Electrical Blast that crackles out with a Beam 4 range to hit at Strength 5. The electricity coursing through his target’s bodies also has the potential to Shock them, making their attacks less effective.
With range 4, strength 5, and the shock ability is pretty sweet. When you combine this with his armor to reduce damage and reroll the enemy’s attack dice, he should also be quite tough.
Crimson Dynamo can unleash a barrage of rocket fire that seeks out his foes if his targets cower in the distance or huddle behind cover. Homing Rockets have a Range of 5, ignore LOS and cover, and chip damage on nearby targets thanks to the Explosive special rule. Best of all, he can keep up a steady stream of these rockets thanks to their low Power cost of 2!
But Bukharin isn’t just lightning bolts and rocket bombardments. He is the leader of the new Winter Guard, and his Unbreakable Red Line Leadership ability demonstrates why. This leadership allows allied characters to remove a special condition at the start of their activations and enables them to dig in while they secure objectives, gaining a chance not to be pushed away from their vital work.
Removing special conditions is quite strong, then being able to secure objectives better is also awesome. Plus, with his Overcharge Capacitors, he can gain the perfect amount of power to shoot his rockets!
This could be a good little way to get off the attack when your opponent thinks he can’t.
