Chapter 1 - Excalibur[]
Mission 1 - Artificial Sweetener[]
|
"Rogue and Gambit thought they were out for a quiet date. Dinner, a movie, that kind of thing. But S.H.I.E.L.D. is going to have to cut their dessert short, because there are Sentinels on the move." Heroes Required: Rogue and Gambit
The battle is actually pretty easy, if Gambit is at least at level 9: using Royal Flush will in fact remove the Sentinels' buffs and deal the useful Wide-Open and Fumbling, which will make Rogue more lethal. If not, Gambit should accumulate as many stacks of Kinetic Charge possible, and use Ace of Spades to lower their defense, allowing Rogue to deal more damage. Note: if you're using Rogue's Horseman of Famine alt, dialogues will be different. |
Mission 2 - Trans-Atlantic[]
|
"Sabretooth is in London. He's probably on Brotherhood business, but he's moving independently of the main Brotherhood and Hellfire Club forces. We've got Logan tracking him down..there ought to be fireworks pretty soon." Heroes Required: Wolverine
This battle is pretty easy, since Sabretooth's damage output is not very high and Wolverine's Healing Factor is more than enough to let him live. The best thing to do is to keep as many stacks of Bleeding as possible on Sabretooth, especially when he gains his Healing Factor. On the third wave things will be more difficult, but Wolverine's counter-attacks (more frequent if he's at low health) will probably defeat Sabretooth with ease. |
Mission 3 - Sword in the Stone[]
|
"Mystique has cut off her very own son, Nightcrawler, on a patrol while he was tracking Brotherhood activity. He could bamf his way out, but there comes a time in a man's life when he's got to face his demons. Even if one of them is his mother." Heroes Required: Nightcrawler |
Mission 4 - Vulture, MP[]
|
"Spider-Woman was keeping an eye on some of the Hellfire Club locations we've already pacified. Who did she run across rebuilding one of them into an A.I.M. lab? Why, M.O.D.O.K.. Jessica's never liked A.I.M.. She likes M.O.D.O.K. even less." Heroes Required: Spider-Woman
If you have Kuurth, it's best to use the scrapper form for obvious reasons. Kuurth is immune to Bio and Psychic attacks, so she can simply ignore half of the attacks M.O.D.O.K. and his minions use. This gives her the freedom to be more aggressive offensively. She can use Love Me on M.O.D.O.K., then let him fight his own minions while she prepares to smash him with her hammer. |
Mission 5 - God Save the Queen[]
|
"Hercules is a man--well, demigod--of simple tastes. He likes to eat, he likes to drink, he likes to test his strength. That means every so often, he starts looking for a fight. When he's feeling fighty and Thor is around, you get a truly epic struggle between demigod and Thunder God." Heroes Required: Hercules
|
Premium Mission: To Catch a Thief[]
|
"The U-Foes are protecting a base built into this location underneath Central Park. Cable and Deadpool were arguing about the best caliber of ammunition for a weapon that hasn't been invented yet, and happened to run across them. Dear Reader, guess what happened next?" Heroes Required: Cable and Deadpool Note: Cable should at least be at level 9 to have a chance to win this battle. It doesn't matter Deadpool's level. The battle begins with Ironclad as the first wave. Ironclad will use Punch twice on Deadpool. The enemy is considerably weak compared to his other appearances: despite having two stacks of Enraged, he can be defeated in under a few hits by either Cable or Deadpool. The next wave with the remaining U-Foes members starts with a twist, as Deadpool begins the round using Redesign Encounter. This turns him into the opposing side and replaces Vector in battle, but retaining Vector's turn order icon, his Tactician class, and Deadpool's Passive effects, along with gaining a new Heroic Battle-exclusive effect called Lover-boy in which he protects Cable and Vapor from all single target attacks. Unfortunately, Deadpool will attack Cable in each of his turns... and with the correct attack sequence, which will sure kill Cable in a few turns. This battle will then be a matter of time and strategy: if you kill Deadpool first you'll be open against X-Ray and Vapor attacks; if you kill them first, the Merc-With-A-Mouth will ravage you. Start giving yourself an extra turn with Temporal Shift, then use Askani Arts on Deadpool: switch then to Overdrive mode and attack him with Techno-Organic Rampage, which will be followed by Psionic Spikes (note that Vapor and X-Ray will "help" you killing Deadpool). On the second turn, switch to Control mode and attack the Merc with a double Plasma Rifle (thanks to the Askani Arts' Flanked effect), which will probably kill him: focus your attention then on the other two enemies, using Temporal Shift whenever possible, to easily win the fight. If you want, you could try using Telekinetic Slam to Stun the enemy party. |
