Marvel United: X-Men - Core Box Playthrough versus Mystique

[@raymondfox1188]

Hey Rich, a note about the henchmen health. They should have been higher based on number of heroes. You had 3 heroes, so their health should have been 4 or 5. Friendly tip, priority round 1 should be reducing the numbers of Thugs and Civilians to prevent round 2/3 overflow. And try to spread out actions completing threats more evenly to delay the villain acting every 2 cards. Appreciate the videos. Keep them coming. 😀

[@RichMidGaming]

thanks for the pointer on the thugs - I thought they were very easily taken out!

[@spacer357]

Hey Rich, I think on Magnetos first go it should have only been 3 actions instead of 4. The card converts all icons to wild so would have converted storms two punches to wild plus magentos wild in his card.

[@RichMidGaming]

yeah, I think I addressed this at the end of the video - I also forgot to draw a card for him a couple of times so it probably evened out!

[@vanessar8056]

The Senator addition is such a small but impactful thing to change the game, very cool.

[@SacramentOfCarnage]

Thanks for posting these playthoughs. Just got the core box and infinity stone expansion.

[@RichMidGaming]

Glad you’re enjoying them!

[@benfromtatooine]

This game is so dynamic! I love how each villain really makes the game feel a little different.

[@RichMidGaming]

It really is, can’t wait to get into the expansions

[@patrick-gz5er]

Just discovered your channel and really enjoying the play throughs. Question about old man Logans turn about 26min in. Could he have played his double wild to move into Mystiques space then use his tokens to push her? I believe that would have ended the game if I am not missing something?

[@RichMidGaming]

I’m honestly not sure - I’d have to go back and take a look, but more than likely I missed it

[@LaytforLife]

I really like that Mystique can be played as a hero or villain. I think the antihero aspect was really smart on their part.

[@alejandroquintero5484]

Super badasss

[@njh113]

Fun play-through! Mystique is definitely a tricky villain.

[@alexg3006]

Glad to see there are some trickier villains in this core set as opposed to the MU core set. Stronger villains give the game more longevity.

[@RichMidGaming]

100%, and the fact you can then scale up the difficulty makes it so much fun

[@Roden4Sooners]

Love CMON games, and I wish I had got into this game when the kickstarter was going, sadly it was too expensive at the time. There are so many now. I am still trying to complete my Arcadia Quest collection.

[@RichMidGaming]

Yeah, I never got into the first lot, but so glad I bought into this one

[@gordcarleigh9157]

The henchman have 3 health more than you gave them, which is pretty significant.

[@RichMidGaming]

Hhhmmmm - I’ll have to go back and take a look at that!

[@josephmurray642]

Its great to see Magneto used as a hero, the anti-heros are a great feature of the game!

[@RichMidGaming]

Yep! I love the fact you get to use some characters for both is super fun!

[@jagricojr30]

Hey Rich! My copy of this game is arriving today and I can't freakin' wait! You mentioned in the post game portion about things you missed in the game and I've got a question that may point out another one, Does the first player, Old Man Logan, not get to draw a card turn 1? He took a damage, left him with two cards, and on his turn you played, "Retired" without drawing. Is this a game mechanic or did you slip? Thanks for the playthrough! Cheers.

[@RichMidGaming]

He does - was a slip that cost me greatly I think!!

[@davidbrown2988]

It's so easy to forget to draw a card at the beginning of the turn. We always have to remind each other

[@reinaldogomezlarenas5872]

Mystique is so fun to play... and to lose. She is so tricky! Good game!

[@picklebuckeye]

You are making me regret not backing this…. 😛

[@daviblight]

so when you are told to draw another villain card, you are not meant to play it in the timeline?? i've been majorly struggling as i would end up playing bam after bam and overflow after overflow forever because i thought they activated!

[@RichMidGaming]

It depends - if it says ‘face down’ then no

[@daviblight]

@@RichMidGaming absolutely missed that. i lost to mystique like 5 times and thought i was the worst at this game and finally beat her first try after knowing the proper rule! video absolutely helped me figure that out, so big thanks for posting.

[@tristanwhitley]

Old Logan has interesting mechanics

[@RichMidGaming]

He really does - feels quite unique in the game (which is nice with so many characters)
