Welcome back to our second preview of our upcoming Legendary® Expansion Annihilation!
This expansion has one more returning keyword, Conqueror. Conqueror appeared in Legendary®: Marvel Studios Phase 1 and Legendary®: Heroes of Asgard. It represents how some heroes become stronger when their preferred battlegrounds have been conquered.
Conqueror
- Some Heroes say things like “Bridge Conqueror 2.” This means “This gets +2
while any Villain is on the Bridge.” - This Hero gets the bonus while there is a Villain on the Bridge.
- Different Heroes have different Conqueror abilities, with different bonus numbers and referring to different city spaces.
- Some cards also have abilities like “Rooftops Conqueror 4”, which likewise means “You get +4 if any Villain is on the Rooftops.”
The Annihilation Wave is a fast-moving invasion force. While pushing forward, they feed on the resources of new territory, becoming more powerful. This is represented by the new “Momentum” keyword.
Momentum
- Some Villains say things like “Momentum 3.” This means “This Villain gets +3 if it entered another city space this turn.”
- This works on the turn the Villain enters the city. It also works on any other turn when it is pushed into another city space by another Villain, or by a special ability moving or swapping it to another space.
- The Mastermind Annihilus has the variant “Mass Momentum 2.” This means he gets +2 for each Villain currently in the city that entered a new city space this turn.
- For both Momentum and Mass Momentum, it doesn’t matter how many different city spaces a Villain entered during a turn. It only matters if it entered any new city spaces at all.
Legendary®: Annihilation is now available on the Upper Deck Store.
