Marvel Showdown (pc selection)

[Madmal]

Moderators: please move this to the Estructured Games section. Thanks

Well, i've been with this idea circling on my head a couple of rounds before i was killed on the OotS showdown, and now that i'm oficially on vacations, i'll try to put it into completion.

well, the main theme of this game is the competition between diverse heroes/villains from the comic books, with each player choosing a character and attempting to be the last man/woman standing over the rest.

Well, i'm still tuning the rules for this game; and posted this introduction mainly to see if there's anyone interested on this type of game.

If you are, i welcome suggestions for what characters to use in the test round. Marvel characters are prefered, but that doesn't mean i'll only use those, it's just that i'm more familiar to them due to the animated series and the movies.

Characters available:
