What Is Skirmish?
Skirmish is a new format where all characters begin near the center of the map in randomized starting positions and are able to get right into the action! Construct a team and battle it out against friends head-to-head or in a multi-player free-for-all.
How To Play?
Players construct teams as they normally would for other formats, but starting forces are placed randomly instead of in predetermined starting areas. Players share a turn that is cut up into “rounds” where each player can perform one action.
How to Win?
Like most HeroClix games, you can win by knocking out all opposing figures. In Skirmish, you can also win by dealing clix of damage. The number of clix varies depending on how many opponents there are, but once it is reached, the game ends.
What’s Different?
Aside to each game starting differently, there are a few key differences to go over:
- All formats have a 3-character minimum
- Maximum Point Value for any character is 150 points
- In 3-4 player games there is a 5-character maximum
- There is a Rule of the First Round that limit certain actions that can be taken at that time
- There is a Banned and Restricted Figure List
