''Marvel Crisis Protocol'' is a miniatures game set in the Marvel universe. A normal game always has two Crises: Secure (Stand on an objective) and Extraction (Carry an objective). In addition to featuring iconic heroes and villains, there is a large emphasis on terrain: Scenery affects traversal and can be used for cover or thrown. Characters like Spider-Man are almost completely unimpeded by scenery, but Hulk can throw damn near anything, including dump trucks, which is always great for a laugh. Despite the aforementioned emphasis on terrain, vertical distance is not measured for attacks, meaning [[Wat|a character on the ground can punch a character on the roof of an adjacent building]].

Another interesting facet is unrestricted roster building. There is nothing stopping you from having sworn enemies on the same team, like Captain America and Red Skull. The reasoning is thematic: Comics are subject to strange team-ups all the time. There are no factional restrictions, but there '''are''' affiliations which can provide bonuses if at least half your team shares an affiliation like Avengers or Cabal. Some characters have multiple factions they can belong to, like Black Panther, who has Avengers and Wakanda. Some characters have Leadership abilities that are activated when you fulfill an affiliation, and some Tactic Cards can only be used on characters that belong to specific affiliations, like Odin's Blessing with Asgardian characters.

== Is This Game For Me? ==

=== Pros ===
-Very high quality miniatures that do justice to the characters.
-Each character feels unique and true to the source material.
-Team building is simple. You'll usually have about 4 or 5 characters on the field with the only additional prepwork being Tactics Cards.
-Terrain is fun as hell to throw around.

=== Cons ===
-The pricing is on par with [[Games Workshop]]. Because every single expansion has unique characters, they can't exactly count on repeat purchases.
-Assembly is a pain in the ass.
-Static poses. No room to get creative there without a knife and the willingness to take a risk on your expensive model.
