Legendary®: X-Men Preview: Epic Masterminds

Legendary® is a game designed to fight the players. Central to this is the Mastermind mechanic. This is a character that can be a mere nuisance, or out to break the players. Legendary®: X-Men brings with it some of the X-Men’s most powerful adversaries.

As an extra-hard challenge, Legendary® X-Men introduces 6 new “Double-Sided Epic Masterminds.” Each has a normal side, or can be flipped over to use its extra-nasty Epic Mastermind side, using the same Mastermind Tactics.

Regular Onslaught and Dark Phoenix are already devastating. Their “Epic Mastermind” versions are insanely hard, with god-like powers!

Legendary® X-Men also adds a second, completely new card type to Legendary®: Horrors. These make the game harder in a variety of ways. All the Epic Masterminds explicitly say they add Horrors to the game.

Players who want to play in “hard mode” can also choose to add any number of Horrors (random or hand-picked) at the start of a game against any Mastermind. With 20 new Horror cards, how many can you beat at once?
