Marvel: Crisis Protocol is a tabletop hobby miniatures game set in the Marvel Universe. Players assemble, paint, and collect an ever expanding line of highly detailed plastic miniatures representing iconic Marvel characters. Players choose characters from their collections to form their own Marvel inspired dream team and then pit their chosen forces against each other on an interactive tabletop where the very terrain itself can be thrown, crashed into, and destroyed during the super powered showdown!

I recommend Deadpool and Bob because they come with a taco truck which is size 3 terrain and there are many tacos to put on each of your bases

[@RichMidGaming]

Extremely valid point!

[@shaunkrogulski9619]

You are correct there is a spider foes affiliation pack coming. I believe they announced with the decision to retire the original core box and have an avengers affiliation box instead. I think the doctor voodoo and hood pack is a good addition gives you another avenger, who was nerfed but is still really good and another cabal member who is rather under rated especially if you get baron strucker

[@RichMidGaming]

It’s a fair call! They were close to making my list but as I only went with 5, Daredevil just pipped them!

[@direden]

I don't think you mentioned that Agent Venom is also SHIELD affiliated. So, Buying the Agent Venom/Spider-Woman pack and the Luke Cage/Iron Fist pack not only gives you a solid Avengers roster it also gives you a solid SHIELD roster. Since the new core box contains 5 SHIELD affiliated characters. Especially if you grab Nick Fury too. (Even though Luke and Iron Fist aren't SHIELD affiliated they provide the much needed 3 threat splash for SHIELD.)

[@RichMidGaming]

That’s a really good point around Agent Venom - it completely slipped my mind!

[@direden]

If you’re interested in both Avengers and Cabal... Brother Voodoo & Hood Wolverine & Sabertooth Black Panther & Killmonger Beast & Mystique

[@MatthewGoddard1]

Just picked up the box set and came across your videos. Thanks so much, I'm a subscriber now. Social Blade says 6k now so maybe I was the one? :) Congratz and thanks again.

NOTE: Think it was a tongue slip but lizard is not CrimSyn; only a SpiderFoe. Kraven, however, is both.

[@RichMidGaming]

Yep - got them the wrong way round! Well spotted

[@danielponicke]

Id recommend buying Falcon Cap & War Machine I feel like it boost so many lists with viable splash characters or in affiliation. Secondly I’d probably go Scarlet Witch & Quick Silver. Next I’d go with some of Rich’s choices. I think there are boxes out there where you can just say that it I’m done but with the amount coming out in the next few years maybe just grab the heroes or villains you love in all media.

[@tecjohnson]

FYI you said Lizard is part of criminal syndicate. I think you meant Kraven

[@anthoniestrada3252]

Been playing foes a lot recently and I’ve loved what lizard has done for me once he closes in to that sweet sweet range 3. I’ve had success playing him near Mysterio and/or a rhino

[@SacramentOfCarnage]

Great videos Rich. Hulk has to be in there as a recommendation. He's an amazing splash character and adds some punch to your lists.

[@John-Val056]

Great video, I have the original Core set. Do I need the new edition Core Box? Or can I make do with the original Core box set?

[@loselot6044]

The OG core box is still completely valid, the new one just has updated tools and tokens (they just look cooler but work the same as the OG core box), and new versions of the OG core box characters. (The characters from the OG core box are their own versions)

[@MrNameUnknown]

Great video! I am curious if you have any advice on expanding the original core box? I have that and recently started playing it as is but am interested in expanding the rosters from that. Thank you!

[@RichMidGaming]

It really depends on what you are looking to play, do you have any ideas around affiliations that you like?

[@MrNameUnknown]

I have been looking at a few different options, first thought was best way to expand the Avengers/Hydra/Cabal theme of the OG core box but I have also looked at Spider foes and Crime Syndicate and Wakanda as possible affiliations to expand to. Any help is much appreciated!!

[@davefogle7747]

great video as always
