It's the 4th of July, so let's celebrate Independence Day with the Quintessential Iron Patriot!

The Quintessential series takes just one character and discusses the ideal HeroClix dial for it.

The Quintessential Iron Patriot comes into variables, the veteran 157 point version and the lower 117 version. All versions come with Flight, Indomitable, Invulnerability, Running Shot, and Sidestep. While he only has 5 clicks of life with the 117 point version, he starts off with Penetrating/Psychic Blast and Running Shot, letting him shoot-and-scoot. Two starting clicks of Outwit can let him deal damage to even the Hulk

If you're willing to splurge an extra 40 points, you get a far different kind of Quintessential Iron Patriot with 2 extra clicks of life. With an increased defense and damage, the Quintessential Iron Patriot now has Energy Explosion with Precision Strike and can use both Leadership and Perplex.

So which one is better? Well, they're both pretty good, and it will just depend on what kind of team you're looking to make. The 157 point version should be good in both 300 and 400 point games.
