Marvel: Crisis Protocol Card Update May 2025

Atomic Mass Games released some updated content this week for their superhero miniature game, Marvel Crisis Protocol. These updates are to character cards, tactics cards, and their FAQ & Errata document, all of which you can view and download on their Rules page for free here. While there aren’t any Asgard-shattering changes, there are a few nice quality of life balances implemented to help clarify timing and interactions within each game phase. Many of these figures will be appearing in the new Affiliation Packs set to release over the next year, which gives players the opportunity to pick up four or five figures in a themed pack (Avengers, Cabal, X-Men, Midnight Sons, etc.). Some of the pieces are hard to find currently because they’re out-of-print, so these new packs are meant to get new players in and experienced players back in.

You can read their official transmission for a more in-depth view, but here are some of the highlights from their post:

• Agent Venom
  • Project Rebirth 2.0 now causes the character to make a Shake action.
• Carnage
  • Healthy side Stamina up to 8 from 7. Paint the Town Red updated.
