Here’s what they have to say about the new set:
Players can shatter mountains and break storms in their games of Marvel: Crisis Protocol with the new characters introduced in this pack! After proving himself to none other than Odin in a duel with Thor, Beta Ray Bill was awarded his own magic hammer for his bravery. Now he travels the galaxy as the defender of all who seek his help, no matter which realm they hail from.
AMG Reveals New Marvel Crisis Protocol Rules for Beta Ray Bill!
Bill’s hammer Stormbreaker gives him a solid Strength 5 physical attack with the ability to Stun his targets, but when he uses it to Summon the Storm he can unleash a torrent of energy in the form of a Strength 6 energy attack that is the bane of anyone who flies: against a flying character, the storm batters them and lets Bill reroll 2 dice in the attack roll, even failures! That’s great for Beta Ray Bill, because it lets him fish for wilds to trigger the Shock special rule.
To have a normal attack at Strength 5 that also stuns is pretty awesome. Then, Summon the Storm is even stronger, and if the character can fly, he will get to reroll two dice and give them the Shock special condition!
The Godhunter energy attack starts out with a base Strength of 5, but Bill adds dice equal to the target character’s size and the strike has the potential to hurl its target, throwing them Medium after the attack.
Bill has been known to boast about his strength, claiming it was great enough to crush moons barehanded. That may or may not be the case, but he is phenomenally strong. The Immeasurable Strength active superpower lets him throw terrain of Size 4 or less up to a Medium distance. Much of his strength and durability is thanks to the potency of his Korbinite Cybernetics. In addition to granting him strength, it is also represented by a reactive superpower allowing him to reduce damage he suffers by 1 for the cost of a single Power. He should pretty much always have the Power to do it thanks to Blessed by the Allfather, an innate superpower that grants him additional Power during the Power Phase as if he were Asgardian himself.
Godhunter is a really cool ability; the bigger the enemy, the stronger Bill becomes, and you can even hurl them (regardless of size)! Next, he can throw most terrain, reduce damage, advance after taking damage, gain additional power each turn, fly, and have immunity to bleed, incinerate, and poison!
Overall, he has a lot going for him and should be great at taking out big characters!
