Take aways from the 2026 Timelines Document

In the wides of the Web the 2026 timelines Document has been spotted and while I don't have a lot of interest in the format itself seeing as I'll absolutely never have a chance to play it (the intended way) myself there's still some conclusions to draw from it:

Affiliations for new characters:

Blue Marvel: Mighty Avengers (not listed in Defenders, though we have one precedent of a character having had different Affiliations in timelines in Killmonger 2)

Spectrum: Mighty Avengers

Moondragon: Avengers, Defenders, Guardians of the Galaxy

Quasar: Guardians of the Galaxy

Adam Warlock: Guardians of the Galaxy

Valkyrie & Elendil: Asgard

The Warriors Three: Asgard

Rescue: A-Force, Avengers, SHIELD

Iron Monger: Criminal Syndicate, Cabal

Iron Lad: Unaffiliated (he'll be Young Avengers when they come out at the end of the year or whenever that's actually going to be)

Kang, the Conquerer: Cabal (leadership)

New TTC and who I think they'll belong to:

Corporate Espionage - Iron Monger

Cosmic Awareness - Adam Warlock

Danger Management - Rescue

Data Backup - Rescue or Iron Monger?

Deeds Worthy of Song - The Warriors Three

Guns Blazin’ - Guardians of the Galaxy ?

Power Couple - Quasar and Moondragon Team Up

Ride of the Valkyries - Valkyrie and Elendil

The Best Defense - Adam Warlock (leadership)?

The Douglas Family - Drax and Moondragon Team Up

The Magus - Adam Warlock

Trust No One But Yourself - Kang

Will be interesting to see if I'm right about the cards but even if I am not there's definitely a bunch of them and I'm excited to see what they'll do.

That's it for today.

Cheers from Germany 🍻

Affiliation Overview: Spider-Foes (2026 update)

Why should you play the affiliation Are you a somewhat of a scientist yourself? Do you like crushing arachnids? Do you love making overly complicated plans and see them ruined by a teenager? Spider-Foes are a super fun faction, which boosts the best looking line of miniatures in the game and a very fun and unique play style with tricks and traps. How to start the affiliation As long as it's available you absolutely start with the Spider-Foes Starter set. It's the so gle best deal in MCP and probably all of tabletop wargaming. The only characters you're missing out of the affiliation after that are: Kingpin (available in the Criminal Syndicate Affiliation pack, which is a good additional pick up after the starter set) Doctor Octopus (available in the Spider-Foes Affiliation Pack or Rivals Panel) Doc Ock, Sinister Scientist (available in the Earth Mightiest Core Set, a good additional pick up if you need terrain) Venom (currently de f...

Ministravaganza 25 reactions

Wow Ministravaganza 25 did a lot in just 35 mins of MCP this year. Let's dive right in and see if my predictions were even close to correct: 1. Roadmap We're immediately starting out with a banger here. Everything on Iron Lads card is just very good. His builder has a "for every wild" trigger with slow and stun which are both great, his Gainer can push, his Spender can automatically reroll any number of dice, he can remove a damage or special condition for a single power, has a size 2 terrain throw and can reroll attackers dice (just for himself but still). He's an extremely well rounded 3 threat. A. The first ever 3 threat on a 65mm base! And oh my what a 3 threat that is. A good builder that can choose to be physical or energy is followed by a great spender that has a throw and an extract steal (not just drop but actually stealing) trigger, as well has a place, rerolls and damage reduction. He is confirmed to be a member of the Criminal Syndicate and will ...

The August Update part 1

I don't think we'll need an intro for these 😅 here are my takes on part 1 of the character updates: Abomination : injured side art update only Adam Warlock : Injured side art update only Agent Venom : Already a favorite character to play of mine the increase to above average 7/7 makes him an excellent piece in all of his (many) affiliated homes. A Amazing Spider-Man : ASM has already been very hard to take off the board and 7/7 makes him nigh invincible. His problem has always been list lackluster damage output and he's got no news there. B Ancient One : 7/6 might make her more interesting now but she struggles with competition in the 4 threat slot where Defenders have a giant pool of options. She could have a comeback in Convocation maybe. B- Angel : Angel already had the markings of a great objective runner and with respectable 6/6 now he is far better at fulfilling that role. B+ Angela :...
