  Why should you play the affiliation? Asgard has a lot of cool usually high threat models with high damage potential and, most importantly, a tonne of throws which is the best thing in this game. For both fun and winning games.  Thor is also just a fan favourite character (for good reason) and you can play: Thor, Lady Thor, Horse Robot Thor, Thor's Step Brother, Thor's former lover(s), Thor's Sister and so on. A lot of them fan favourites themselves.  How to start the affiliation? While   there is an affiliation pack I would probably not start with that but with the newer four character pack that includes Jane Foster, Thor, Hero of Midgard, Lady Sif and Loki, Prince of Lies. It includes two leaders in Jane and Loki 2, a very good affiliated 4 threat and your very own (possibly slightly overtuned) Kaiju in Thor 2. Next you'll probably want to get Beta Ray Bill and Ulik (unaffiliated). Ulik will probably not make your Asgard roster as it's already loaded with affilia...

Why should you play the affiliation? Despite her rather bad D+ show She-Hulk is a cool character and the original (and much funnier) 4th wall breaker. And here she is the main star supported by a bunch of awesome strong women that will punch out anyone who dares stand in their way (in theory).  On the table A-Force are often focused around a bodyguard puzzle you create for your opponent.    How to start the affiliation   Owning either core set is a good thing here. The first purchase specifically for A-Force has to be She-Hulk herself as she's your only available leader. Next up I'd recommend the Wakanda affiliation pack. It comes with Okoye who is basically an every game model here, Shuri as an interesting affiliated 3 threat and useful splashes Killmonger and Black Panther. The dual with Wakanda is also easily done. From here on out you have a lot of choices:  Gwenpool and Squirrel Girl is a pack with two affiliated models. Every pack after those will come wit...

Across the Bifrost Nexus A collection of content for Marvel Cri Welcome back to SG Protocol, where we continue our roster building series with the topic of according for the meta today. What even is the “meta”. Luckily it doesn’t have anything to do with Mark Zuckerberg 😉 What we call the meta is basically the sum of players and rosters you encounter. Be that at your local store / club, a particular event or TTS. So metas can differ based on where you play. Thanos might be very popular and often played in your area while you don’t encounter him once in a TTS event for example. Predicting the meta is especially difficult because basically all events only lock the lists a couple of hours before they start or not at all like in the main TTS league. That said there are three things you can always try to include in your roster unless your game plan would be actively hindered by them. Safe grabs What is meant by safe grab is having a character that can move to the center line of the table, ...
