Knight Models February Releases - Riddler Crew, Green Lantern and More

After a well deserved break in January, Knight Models have started the year with a set of fantastic releases for February.

DC Universe Miniature Game Releases

Green Lantern and Sinestro are two highly anticipated models. We are getting closer to being able to run the original Justice League with the addition of Green Lantern. All we need now is a Martian Manhunter model.

Both characters look to be very powerful and are the first options for either a Green Lantern Corps or Sinestro Corps team.

Batman Miniature Game Releases

Another highly anticipated release, the classic Riddler Crew is a nice alternative to the The Riddler and Bot Army, if you prefer a more classic look for your Riddler crew.

The first sidekick for the Riddler crew, Quelle is a perfect companion to the classic look of the new Riddler Crew.

Another less known Batman villain and a one time member of the Suicide Squad, let's hope the Electrocutioner is more of a challenge to Batman than their encounter in Arkham Origins.

Emperor Penguin is much more menacing alternative to either the original Penguin Leader or the Gotham TV Show Penguin Leader.

A cheaper way of expanding your Harley Quinn Crew.

New Knight Models Batman + Marvel Releases

It's that time of the month again folks, Knight Models have posted up their new Batman and Marvel releases.
I know I have said they are getting better each time, but this month they have really stepped it up and cranked out some stunning minis.

Rocket Raccoon, core member of the Guardians of the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Although the Marvel models don't have rules yet, I'm glad he's out now for when the game happens.
Plus the model looks awesome.

Jason Todd a.k.a Red Hood. The second Robin turned bad then good(ish) again.
Red Hood is a 88 Rep $500 Free Agent for a Batman crew. Armed with Dual Handguns, the Takedown ability and the Arkham Knight themed Teamwork, he's a great addition.

Azreal, crusader for the Church of St.Dumas and potential replacement for Batman.
At 77 Rep and $150, Azreal adds a lot of Blood Damage as a Free Agent for Batman. His Sword of Sin is Sharp, has Crit Fire and even rolls two Crit dice and uses BOTH results.

Harley Quinn gets some help in the form of a Henchman pack. 38 Rep and $250 together they ar a good boost to her crew and the addition of an RPG will cause issues to the bigger foes.

Hugo Strange, creator of Arkham City leads his patients into the battle. Able to control and boost Henchmen with Mental Disorder Traits, Hugo is a bargain at only 44 Rep. He can be taken as a Free Agent with the Riddler, League of Shadows, Black Mask and Organised Crime.
The Arkham Inmates cost 67 Rep for the Free and can be taken by any Villain crew, They are better alongside Hugo though.

Previewed here recently, the Riddler appears with a whole Bot army.
The key points of this new crew are three different types of Bot that can be taken up to three times each and the fact they don't use normal objectives. Each model can lay down Clues during their activation and the VP per turn is worked out by the amount on the table. The opponent can remove them though!

Batman and Law Forces get a new Objective in the form of the Bat Signal.
This can be marked as On or Off by manipulating it and gives VP at the end of the round depending on the setting. It also has room to add an LED if you really want it to work.

Finally are some Riddler and Red Hood markers. Used for Willpower, Action Counters, Ammo or whatever you like.

What do you think of this new batch of releases?
Will you be picking any of them up?

I'm off to place a sizeable order!

Batman Rulebook Reveals - Corrupt Cops, Riddler and Red Hood

Over in the Arkham City Limits Facebook Group a copy of the new Batman Rulebook has appeared!

There has been some nice little hidden extras in there as well.

First up, the stat card for the Red Hood Joker exclusive model. The same rules as Arkham City Joker but a nice alternate card.

Next up is a new Trait, Corrupt. Looks like we will be getting some corrupt GCPD cops soon!

Could it be Com Loeb?

The final one for now (until more are found) is the one I'm the most excited about. The equipment list for a RIDDLER CREW! Yay! Can't wait to see what they do with this one.

Don't forget, we have a  big Knight Models giveaway going on at the moment. 5 blisters for 5 winners at 500K hits. You can find it >HERE<.

If I don't reply to any comments straight away, it's because I'm waiting by the door for my books to arrive!

Batman Minis Game - The Riddler ?

This has been posted up on the Mistycball Blog. The Riddler!
The original post is in Spanish so I have reposted below via Google translate.

Edward Nigma, E. Edward Nigma or Nashton according to different sources ... is a character with a reputation cost 69.

Its high Intellect give Mastermind rule and Lord Of Break heads (which allows you to automatically resolve Enigmas goals and the opponent does not let you re-roll failed those goals).

Its high Ego and hate towards Batman, with his intelligence gives it an intellectual struggle with his enemies, using the rules Confusion, Disorder and Liante.

His fighting prowess is low, but has its own manufacturing staff if someone reaches a critical It shocks him.

It is a control character and very annoying for the opponent.

What do you think of this enigma?
