Like Crisis before it, Secret Invasion only had two
chase figures as well, and unlike the Supermen,
these weren't such definitive and highly competitive
versions of the characters. But neither are they
chopped liver...or are they? Let's look.
SUSAN RICHARDS

120 points
Team: Skrulls
Keywords: Fantastic Four, Skrulls, Spy
Range: 6 x 2
DIAL & CARD:
http://www.continuumedia.com/clix_cave/tb2/Unit.cfm?UnitID=si099&UnitVersion=1&KeyDisplay=1
STRENGTHS:
OMG. Dr. Strange might have his Trick Shot-plus
trait, but he can't see through walls or blocking or
elevated terrain. SHE CAN. Other characters' Ranged
Combat Expert gives them +2 damage against a single
character. Skrull Sue can split hers between her 2
targets. AND she gets Outwit...all courtesy of her
"To The Negative Zone" Special Power in the damage
slot. Her 6 range is a bit shortish, but Running
Shot helps and Telekinesis fills out her support
role. She also sports Invulnerability and Barrier. A
few clicks in, she becomes "Invisible" like her
starter set incarnation (unable to be seen beyond 6
squares) and remains offensively dangerous with
Psychic Blast, Willpower and Shape Change (on top of
Skrull TA) the rest of her dial.
WEAKNESSES:
Her range is a bit too short and her AV too low to
be worth playing at her hefty cost if not for her
terrain-ignoring shots. She also can't see through
characters, and the power doesn't work with Outwit
at all.
CARDS TO CONSIDER:
OUTSMART is a cheap way to defend her powers on her
fighting clicks.
IN SUM:
Her real strength is that she completely changes the
way your opponent has to play. Use that to your
advantage. 3.5 of 5.
