Today we
are going to be looking at the newly previewed
Spiderman 2099 from Fantastic Forces
“How
can we make another Spiderman book? How? We
already have Amazing, Spectacular, just plain
Spiderman and he’s the guest hero in every comic
book ever made. WAIT! How about Spiderman in
Space?…hmmm…no. Spiderman as a clone…no, we tried
that people didn’t like it. How about Spiderman in
the future? BINGO!”
Spiderman 2099 was part of a pretty good series of
2099 books. Spiderman was not really part of that
goodness, but I did love Ravage and Punisher 2099.
Cost
and Abilities:
Unique 92
points. 8 clicks of life. 4 range/ double target.
Spiderman Ability
Movement:
10 with leap climb the entire dial.
Attack:
10 with blades/claws for the first half of the
dial. Incapacitate the other half.
Defense
17 with super senses most of the dial. Combat
Reflexes and Willpower through the rest.
Damage:
2 damage to start and to end. His last two clicks
have Outwit. MAN he would be better if he had that
on his first two clicks!
Sculpt:
Hands down the best Spiderman and maybe the best
sculpt of the entire set.
Team
Ability:
Nothing is better then wildcard. If you get an LE
invisible girl he is going to be a 19 with super
senses. Get an Alfred POG and he is a stealth
character. Get him a Jarvis with Thunderbolts card
and give him Mystics while you’re at it.
Feats:
Pounce. Not too bad here. Pounce and Blades claws
could be electric. If you go the Invisible Girl
route Pounce all you want! His defense will never
get worse.
Battle Field Condition
: I guess
Power Dampening Field is best for him as it is with
all blades claws. Figures. Keep an Ordinary Day on
hand to make sure nobody cancels your team ability.
How
to Beat Him:
Use a person with a very high absorbing damage and
hope he rolls poorly for blades claws. Mind Control
is not bad against him either.
How
to Play Him:
Build your wildcard team around him and maybe a
Jinx. He’s solid but not invincible. Always have a
medic he can run too.
Overview:
I like this Spiderman a lot. Not as much as the
veteran Ultimate Spiderman, but this one is one of
the better Unique figures in the set and definitely
can be played. All wild cards are a lot better due
to the Fantastic Four changing ability card. The
bottom line is (with Pounce) he can move for 10
clicks and make a blades/claws attack. He does take
a click, but he’s very likely to hit. He has a very
useful dial and is never really a non factor in the
game.
Overall Score:
3/5 300 Points
4/5 400 Points
4/5 500 Points
