Ever since I saw him in the Visionary's deck I had wanted to face off against him more than anything. Now I have had the chance and it is one of the funnest villians to date. It really showcases how truly strong he is. Meaning while he is a hero there is a good chance he is holding back so he doesn't hurt anyone too badly. He can take a whole team in the matter of a few turns even though his HP isn't too different that anyone elses. I really can't wait to see all his artwork as well. The world it has become is going to look intense.
I don't think so: The Assistant was a contest entry. If I'm remembering correctly, the info about three characters dying was way before the contest started.
I think the comment about three heroes dieing were three in the main story. Felecia dies in a alternate story, so her death doesn't count. So I think we are still with only one hero death which would be Legacy. Unless I misread it and they did say three heroes overall.
Maybe Unity? Bunker?
But they die in the Freedom Six timeline, right? So they die as a result of Felicia dying, not really splitting timelines.
Ronway might have a point, though.
Oddly, it looks like Iron Legacy isn't a nemesis of himself (his hero icon isn't on his villain card). I guess he's cool with himself trying to stop himself from killing all those evildoers.
It's certainly understandable to not want to attack yourself as much. And this goes double for Young Legacy. If he had that nemesis symbol, that'd make him her nemesis too. He wouldn't like that.
Where he comes from, there aren't any more Legacy's. I'd find it strange if he did have his own nemesis icon!
If you are playing the good Legacies versus the evil Legacy and Iron Legacy kills Young Legacy I think his head implodes.
I was just curious since they introduced a group of six, I was wondering if the designers expected a 6 v 1 situtation stretching the limit. For all we know the box could say 3-6 players for this expansion.
Side note:
Is there a way for someone to catch up on the lore of this universe. Just recently discovered the game and would love to read more.
I think all the lore on characters and stuff is accessible via the "Multiverse" link at the top of the page. There are also brief bios of all the heroes and villains in the manuals.
Also, checkout the resources under Spiff's site.

A lot of the lore is also discovered by the flavor text and art on the cards themselves. There is so much hidden within all the cards that a lot of speculation are based on them.
Yeah, there's an insane amount of events that happen in this multiverse. It's mostly been kept secret (anything outside cards and bios) with a few bits here and there, but there's still a lot to be learned. I hope one day that we know the full story.
On the other hand, it's fun speculating with everyone. A lot of good ideas come up around here. So I do like the mystery as well--deducing things is great, and the info we have to fill in for ourselves because we don't know the truth is always cool.
Thanks all.
Yea I read them, but I am confused by how people are talking about the 3 deaths and all.
So I was just wondering if I was missing something else.
Oh about that... That is lost in the forums somewhere. Real shame though, it'd be nice to read into that again, nmuch like a previous topic about Fright Train.
Yeah, that's the problem we've got around here: we've got all those bits of information, but their sources are lost among all the topics and posts.
I hear tell that some people are working on a wiki! Although it is by no means an official project, it sounds to me like a great way to keep track of official info (as well as the periodic off-hand comment from Christopher that reveals exactly as much as he intends :) )
That's right! Let's not forget about that! I'd certainly love to pitch in on writing down info for them. I've always wanted to do something to help the community here, and since I haven't yet produced that Rook City Renegade movie I wrote (still got the script!), I'd love to help with the wiki.
Wait, so, the periodic off-hand comments from Christopher that reveal exactly as much as he intends will now be archived in a wiki for all to see when they please?
