Awesome Clix: Roy Harper Jr.

While his stats may no look like much, you'd be hard pressed to find a better figure at the 39 point range. Seriously, take a hard look at that dial...

Awesome Clix is a HeroClix series that discusses Golden Age figures that are useful in Modern Age Games.

Awesome Clix: Roy Harper Jr.

Pow! Spider-Ham HeroClix Strategy GuideFor 39 points you have an excellent secondary attacker with a whopping [10] attack value and 2 ranged attacks! With touch of Running Shot, Stealth and natural [3] damage, Roy Harper Jr. is cheap to field and can get a quick hit in (or two). That's worth 39 points right there.

As a bonus, Roy Harper Jr also sports the Police Team Ability, making him extremely versatile and useful for any team that focuses on ranged combat.

Police Team Ability HeroClixPolice Team Ability: When a character using the Police team ability is adjacent to a friendly character making a ranged combat attack, modify the target’s defense value by -1 if the target is within line of fire of this character.

Seriously, how can such a simple dial be so cool? Congrats Roy Harper Jr, you're this week's Awesome Clix!

What kind of team would you put Roy Harper Jr. on?

This piece has 2 main strengths that would be easily exploitable. #1 is his top click and #2 is his PD team ability. Notice how PD says LINE OF FIRE and not RANGE. Stick ole Roy here with Hawkeye from Chaos War and you essentially have a 13 ATK Hawkeye that can use his stealth to partially protect the squishiness that is Roy. Keeping Roy top click is a little more tricky but a cheap piece with SUPPORT (cough Moira MacTaggert cough) and you can easily hit his low defense number. All in all, Roy delivers exactly what he promises, a glass cannon sidekick

Okay, I see a righty as a figure by why southpaw in the artwork?

Checkmate is his only named keyword so I would build around that. Given that he's golden age anyway that gives a chance to break out the B&TB checkmate knights for some Enhancement and a couple of Hypertime Veteran Agents for some long range smoke to keep Roy in cover.

Would use him with my green arrow to have a awesome duo in battle

One can never have too many archaic weapons in a her group.

Love those attack values. Strong to the end. Would be great to cover blind side for Green Arrow or Hawkeye.

I would use him with Steve rogers chase from Avengers Assemble and kill my opponent.

I'd use him with Avas Thor and aaou Hawkeye

Central City Captain, DEO agent, Owlman from Fast Forces, Jimmy Woo from S.H.I.E.L.D.. Roy jr. gets bonuses with the acquired Central city and Gotham Underworld keywords plus PC immunity and stealth. Bethany Cable wouldn't hurt either since she can give him the much needed defense.

I would use him with Green Arrow, sit back and let the arrows fly.

This would be awesome with any Police figure with a high Defend value. Does the AOU wave 2 Captain America (with Police TA) have Defend?
