SetsNo doubt about it, HeroClix is a rule laden game that can be complex when approached with little attention. The payoff, however, is a great experience [re]creating comic based battles with a myriad of characters that would sometimes prove hard to see on the pages of an actual comic.
Where else can we get Batman and Judge Dredd to lay the smack down on those upstart kids from the Runaways while being helped by Incredible and the Comedian? And think, pretty soon, Chun Li and M. Bison of Street Fighter fame can be fielded to help which ever side they want.
Well, lots of fans loving this game has driven the creation of great sets of resources for the game. From the fantastic community for Clix fans HCRealms, to third party game enhancements from Gale Force 9 and Grid Reality, fan interest in the game makes other folks think of some great ways to improve the game-playing experience.
Today, I'd like to look at a few of the resources available on the Android Market that may help enhance your game. If you like what you read, there is a scannable barcode that will take you right to that App in the Android Market when scanned
The first thing you will notice at the Android Market is that a search for 'heroclix' turns up only a handful of Apps. All but one are by fan/developer (and funny man) Adam Komar. Adam has been a fairly active member of the HeroClix community at HCRealms.
The most prominent of these Apps that Adam has developed is the HeroClix Team Builder. This app lets you search the entire inventory of HeroClix figures, Feats and Bystanders to build any team for any need. The teams and database of figures, including stats for each click of the dial, store to your SD card.
Using this app you can plan ahead for your next game anywhere. As a mobile interface with limited screen to use, it is not as convenient as the Unit Section on HCRealms, but as far as mobile planning, this is tops. Plus you have the option of downloading the entire database to your SD card, so you don't even have to have a network connection to use the App, just plug in what you want to work with and go. Oh yeah, it also calculates theme team bonuses.
I feel as if I am just glossing over this, because frankly, I cannot say enough good things about this App. Every click, every FEAT, right there on your mobile device for you to peruse anytime you want. WIN WIN WIN!
This is a pay app. But for $2.00 you get a go-anywhere clix library that is constantly updated with the new sets and can search for just about any parameter you can think of. (For the record, this is the only App I have ever paid for and I don't regret it one bit!)
Another clix utility that Adam has built is the Crosshairs for HeroClix line of sight tool. This tool giives you a 14 x 14 square grid that you can plot two end points on. It draws a line between the two endpoints and you can examine the straight line between them. this is a very simple tool. While it lacks the ability to zoom, it gives you a clear view of the LOS. From there you can refer to the map you are on and if you see that the line crosses any terrain on the map you can make the appropriate ruling.

But let's not over state what this tool is. It is just a replacement for a straight edge, albiet a very precise one that is free of any accidental misplacement, it cannot tell you what the effects of terrain are. For that you still have to refer to the rule book.
Adam's last game-play App is a simple 2d6 auto roller called Bonethrower for HeroClix. Not much to say, it rolls 2d6 by tapping the screen. No option to roll 1d6, so if you use it for a shape change, super senses, etc. roll you'll have to declare left or right before tapping. Also the screen is pretty sensitive, a double tap rolls twice and the dice are a bit small given the size of most Android device screens.

A newer app is HeroClix Rules from Norwegian developer Kyrre Havik Eriksen. This is impressive as well as simple. All it is, is the PAC in a scrollable single power per screen presentation. Very fast to find each power.
Just tap the Ability and the associated color and the text from the PAC is displayed. Tap 'More' and you get a list of all of the Team Abilities and other character Abilities in a similar display. It currently is using the wording from the latest PAC and has ALL Team abilities from Infinity Challenge to Watchmen. A big help when it comes to describing the other game Abilities such as carry, Capture and Multi-Attack, verbatim from the rules book, but without all that pesky flipping pages.
This was a paid app but quickly went free, I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't have (or want to carry) the PAC to each game they go to.
Update: The Developer even plans to include ATAs in a near future update. Making this an even better resource.
A note about using these apps in a game. You should always tell your opponent (and the Judge) that you are planning on using them. Just like with any other set of dice, if your opponent says 'no', then switch to some real ones. And if ever there is a discrepancy between what is displayed on the App and what is in the paper Rules Book (including the Player's Guide) then the paper wins!
One should also note that having HeroClix Team Builder open during a game Bonethrower Dice Setscan get you disqualified. There is a no 'cheat sheets' rule for organized play. Having it open means you can see the entire dial of your opponent or your own team, that is a big time NO! So remember what Uncle Ben says folks, 'with great [App] Power, comers great [App] responsibility.'
One last App to talk about is also from Adam Komar. The HeroClix Dial Generator can make any dial you want into bbcode, suitable for sharing with your friends on HCRealms. You can use it for your own creations, to report new figs or just to talk about figures when the bbcode is not yet unavailable.
It works great for what it does. but I'll tell you the same this I said when I left a review for it in the market, 'Works well but be careful of hitting the back button when you have spent 15 minutes of dial making :)'



Easiest way to lose at craps is by shaking the dice and throwing it down the craps table

You've seen this in movies/tv a million times.
The guy asks the pretty girl next to him to kiss the dice.
Bonethrower dice sets game Then for some reason he shakes the dice real good - making sure the dice are purely random.
Then with a loud holler, wails the dice across the craps table - going all over the place.
If ever there was a way to just donate money to the casino - this is it.

Why is randomly shaking dice so bad? Why will you never win at craps in the long term?

To put it simply? You're ensuring that the natural probability of the dice will occur.

Bonethrower Dice Sets Game


(Huh? That's 'simply'?)
Let me explain...

Casinos have paid lots of money to genius mathematicians to assure casinos always win

No matter how you play craps, the 7 is always beneficial to the casino and detrimental to the player.
Why?
Because the number 7 will come up more than any other number when the dice are rolled randomly.Sets
So, if you play the Pass Line, then 7 only helps you during the Come Out Roll.
Dice After the point is made - the 7 has more chances to come up than the point (or any other number).
And if you play the Don't Pass (DP/Darkside), then the 7 has more chances to kill your bet during the Come Out.
(Check out the Dice Rolling Probability chart on this website for a more in-depth explanation.
Add to this the fact that the casinos take a chunk of your winnings - and you have no hope of winning at craps
by shaking the dice as if you were playing Maracas, or something.
Yes, they take a chunk - it's how they make sure they always win.
For example, you're supposed to win $10 when you bet $5 on a 4 or 10.
But if you're Placing the number, you only get paid $9. They keep the $1.
You're probably thinking '$1? Who cares?'. Well the more you play, the more the casino eats away at your money.
When you lose, the casino takes the whole thing. When they win, they keep a portion. No way to beat that, right?

The only way to beat craps is to know the 'Loop Hole' - enter Dice Control

Well, you can't exactly control the dice. I like how the Dice Coach refers to it - Dice Influence.
The 'Loop Hole' is the fact that the casino makes money from craps as long as the dice are perfectly random.
This is how their mathematicians made their calculations.
But what they didn't take into consideration is the possibility that if even one face of the dice never comes up -
the game of craps can be beat.
And how is this accomplished? The magical word is consistency.

Dice Consistency 101 - a few tips for beginners

That's the term I use with my students.
I believe it more accurately describes the goal than either Dice Control or Dice Influence
Here's a few tips you can use to start seeing a little difference in your dice rolling:
  • Learn Dice Setting and choose one set to start with
    A good beginner set is the Hard Ways. This is a good set for visual feedback
  • Keep the dice square on the table, parallel to, and facing the backwall
  • Before tossing the dice, visually choose a spot a few inches from the backwall to land your dice on.
    From now on, you'll do everything you can to hit that spot as often as you can
  • Gently toss the dice, as if trying to 'swish' a basketball through a hoop.
    • When you're hand is 3/4 through the toss, spring open your hand - letting go of the dice
    • Make sure the dice are level in the air - not twisting around in weird directions
    • Spinning backward or forward is fine. Try to keep the dice looking as if they were glued together in the air
  • Observe how the dice land, react to the backwall, and how much they keep rolling after touching the backwall.
    I say touching the backwall, because you don't want to slam the dice into those pyramids.
  • Take a mental note of what the dice show when they come to a stop.
    If you're noticing that the dice are now rolling a certain combination more often - you're on your way
Keep in mind that if you roll a 6 twice in a row - it means little if one combination was 4+2 and the second one was 5+1. Just keep adjusting your throw to make sure the dice land softly on target, lightly touch the backwall,

and comes to a complete stop as quickly as possible (no bouncing around all over the craps table).

A quick check to see if you're still random

An easy way to tell if you're still random is if you're throwing all kinds of 7's.
For example, if you keep shooting a 6+1, but no 5+2's - this is good.
You may have limited the 5+2 from showing up together.
When you set your hardway set, move the 6 to either the 5 or 2 spot.

Keep setting your dice this way, and see if it helps.
If not, then readjust.
Repeat this process till you limit the kinds of 7's you see.
If you can accomplish this - you're on your way to a few longer rolls, which equates to more possible wins!
