Marvel HeroClix: Galactic Guardians Preview-Namor
Howdy Clixers!
Today’s Marvel HeroClix: Galactic Guardians preview out of Wizkids/NECA takes us 20,000 leagues under the sea to Atlantis as we check out the tiny plastic version of Namor: The Submariner.

Namor launches into battle with the Flight Transporter ability and the Defenders team ability. He also sports his Defenders Undersea trait:
Characters possessing the Defenders keyword or team ability who begin an action adjacent to Namor can use the Swim ability for that action.
Power-wise, Namor kicks off play with six clicks (count them, six!) of Super Strength to make use of objects lying around the battlefield. Namor’s defense starts with three clicks of Invulnerability. To add to that lethal combination, Namor also has his Imperius Rex special power:
Namor can use Leadership. Opposing characters subtract 1 from their Leadership rolls.
At various intervals throughout the dial Imperius Rex alternates back and forth with Battle Fury.
About a third way into his dial, Namor drops Invulnerability for Toughness for the most of the rest of the dial. Then Namor’s dial ends with two clicks of Flurry and one click of Regeneration.
Weighing in at 120 points, Namor possesses the Atlantis, Avengers, Defenders, Illuminati, Invaders and Ruler keywords and will crush on any of those keyword teams.
That’s it for today’s preview. But keep an eye out later this week when we look at another piece from Marvel HeroClix: Avengers Movie.
Until then, keep on clixin’.
