Spiderman Miniature Game

 

Yeah, that's right. Marvel has made their way to the tabletop at last with introduction of the Spiderman Minature Game (SMG?). Base rules use the BMG rule set, but with some slight changes, as shown here, along with increased reputation limits to account for more powerful characters.

Currently, there are only a few models out. Of course, Spiderman, as seen above. But also Superior Spiderman (i.e. Doc Oct in Peter Parker's body?). Combined with the Green Goblin they make up the leaders for their respective factions. But Daredevil and the Punisher also make an appearance as a sidekick and free agent respectively. On the Goblin's side, he has the Goblin Knight as a sidekick along with a host of goblin minions.

What does this mean for the game? Well, for starters, the classic DC vs Marvel face off is evident. But this could also mean more powerful superheroes on either side of the game. I doubt we'll see unstoppable juggernaughts like Superman, Shazaam, Hulk, or....the Juggernaught, but we may see some other superpowered heroes/villians like Wolverine or Hawkgirl, and we should definitely see Marvel's non-powered heroes like Black Widow and Hawkeye.
