Greetings HeroClix fans!<\/p>\n

Welcome back to our previews Marvel HeroClix: Avengers\/Defenders War<\/a>.\u00a0 We hope these articles and sneak peeks have your palms sweaty in anticipation and ready to tear open booster packs at your upcoming Pre-Release<\/a> and Release Day Events.\u00a0 Today, we take you through the mean streets of New York City to visit the heroes that make it their business, some very literally, to keep criminal scum out of their neighborhoods with the Marvel Knights Fast Forces Pack<\/strong>.\u00a0 Let\u2019s take a taxi to Hell\u2019s Kitchen for some legal advice from Daredevil<\/strong> and his part-time allies\/ part-time adversaries, Elektra<\/strong> and the Punisher<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<\/div>

Blinded in his youth in an accident with radioactive waste chemicals, Matt Murdock\u2019s other senses became superhumanly keen.\u00a0 With a law degree and master level martial arts training, Daredevil<\/strong> has the desire to avenge his father\u2019s death and the means to protect his hometown from crime.\u00a0 At 75 points, Ol\u2019 Hornhead in the red jumpsuit is ready to dish out justice with his trait, Protector Of Hell\u2019s Kitchen. <\/em>This trait lets him use Stealth<\/em> and heal a click of damage whenever a friendly character within range of equal or lesser points is targeted with an attack.\u00a0 Whether in a courtroom or an alleyway, Daredevil<\/strong> can Charge <\/em>into the fray with Improved Movement: Ignore Elevated and Hindering Terrain and Character Bases<\/em>.\u00a0 While he has a range value of 4 and his dial is bookended with Outwit<\/em>, base to base is where Daredevil<\/strong> excels.\u00a0 With a strong starting defense value of 18 with Super Senses<\/em> that gets even tougher to hit with Combat Reflexes <\/em>after he has earned a few cuts and scrapes, Murdock is one fighter that won\u2019t get knocked down easily.\u00a0 Close Combat Expert <\/em>and Flurry <\/em>will help him serve vigilante justice and keep the scum out of the Kitchen.\u00a0 Giving the Devil his due, Daredevil<\/strong> has the Marvel Knights<\/em> and Martial Artist <\/em>keywords.\u00a0 He will need all of that and more to keep up with his ex-girlfriend, the ninja assassin,\u00a0Elektra<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Sporting additional keywords including Heroes For Hire<\/em>, The Hand<\/em>, and Assassin<\/em> in addition to Marvel Knights<\/em> and Martial Artist<\/em>, Elektra<\/strong> fills the role of close combat powerhouse very nicely at 75 points.\u00a0 Like all the figures in the Marvel Knights Fast Forces Pack<\/strong>, she has a trait that lets her heal a click after actions resolve in just the right circumstances.\u00a0 Deadly Assassin For Hire<\/em> lets Elektra<\/strong> heal a click of damage when an opposing character is KO\u2019d in addition to giving her Stealth<\/em>.\u00a0 Beyond the obvious healing advantage, this can be a very useful trait because of her dial arrangement, which allows her to switch tactics every other click. On even click numbers, she has Flurry<\/em>, Blades\/Claws\/Fangs<\/em>, and Super Senses<\/em>; on odd number clicks, she has Charge<\/em>, Combat Reflexes<\/em>, and Exploit Weakness<\/em>.\u00a0 She puts all that training to work with Indomitable<\/em>, Improved Movement: Ignore Elevated and Hindering Terrain<\/em>, and consistently reliable combat values.\u00a0 Elektra<\/strong> can shred through an opposing character\u2019s dial with Flurry<\/em> and Blades\/Claws\/Fangs<\/em>, KO them, and heal a click onto Charge <\/em>to hit her next mark.\u00a0 Speaking of hitting marks, the Punisher<\/strong> has the mob in his sights and a bullet (or a rocket shell) with their name on it.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"Marvel<\/a><\/span><\/div>

At 75 points, with the Heroes For Hire<\/em>, Marvel Knights<\/em>, and Soldier<\/em> keywords, and a 6 range value with three potential targets, Punisher<\/strong> is the dedicated ranged attacker of the team.\u00a0 With a full dial of Energy Explosion<\/em> and a damage value of 3, Punisher<\/strong> should have no trouble triggering his trait.\u00a0 Delivering Punishment<\/em> lets him heal a click of damage whenever he damages one or more opposing characters with an attack.\u00a0 He starts the fireworks early with Running Shot<\/em> and Willpower<\/em>, keeps them going steady for the whole show with Sidestep<\/em> and Toughness<\/em> mid dial, and goes back to Willpower <\/em>for the crescendo.<\/p>\n
