I think that there are two characters who should be on your Horsemen list that you passed over: Mr. Sinister and Omega Red. Both of them are X-adjacent, though I am pretty sure that they're mutants themselves; both of them are lacking in affiliations, and this Horsemen affiliation would help that; and both of them have status effects that the Horsemen want (Omega Red's gameplan also keys nicely off of what Apocalypse can do). At the very least, I would expect Omega Red to be a Pestilence option.
That's damn cool. I can't wait to paint him. Also, it makes me wanna grab a few custom miniatures to paint as horsemen. Super excited! After seeing Gladiator, Exodus, and the other mutant champs, my want list has shrunk. I REALLY hope they do a few Age of Apocalypse characters.
In the X-Men: Evolution cartoon the Horsemen were the following: Professor X - Death, Magneto - War, Storm - Famine, & Mystique - Pestilence. Magneto and Storm were also Horsemen in the movies (along with Archangel and Psylocke). Mister Sinister should also be considered. He hasn't been a horsemen, but his origin is tied to Apocalypse, and the two work together a lot. He's even shown in one of Apocalypse's tactics cards.
@@timothymaroney4497 thank you! This is exactly the kind of information I was looking for. I totally forgot Mister Sinister! Would he be a horsemen or just an ally?
@@SyndicateGamingNerds Mister Sinister was a Horseman in Ultimate Xmen and in Age of Apocalypse (two alternate timelines). I don't know which horseman though. They said he was the first horseman in ultimate.
I really like how this leadership works. I think there are still things that need to be clarified, but overall it is a very clever leadership. I am curious which characters will be eligible to be horseman.
@@SyndicateGamingNerds The main clarification for the leadership is when apocalypse is removed the master of the horseman card is removed, but are the horseman cards also removed at that time? I am assuming not, but since they are part of the leadership it isn't clear if they stick around or not. A question I have for the affiliation as a whole are all of the affiliated models eligible to be horseman (I assume yes)? Can you take them and not give them the corresponding horseman card, again I am assuming yes, but we will have to wait to see.

*Stares at his Logan figure intently* You'd better be on that horsemen list boy!!
@@CapAdGroup 😂🤣😂 he’s got decent odds!

AMG is pretty adamant that TTC art is not spoilers for the game, but Stilt-Man is on the Custom Upgrades card so I choose to believe you're right haha
@@SyndicateGamingNerds the idea of having non-horsemen allies that are affiliated is intriguing, but wouldn't really do anything right?

I think his affiliation will be less prone to splashing than any other, because there is so much synergy with having more horsemen on the table.
@@Bobby-ee8mk for sure! The only one I can see is Mr Sinister for the potential tactics card
