Marvel Crisis Protocol: Building A (New) Battlefield Introduction With the changes around terrain throws, along with recent dev comments in podcast interviews and the November 2025 Rules Update mentioning more terrain and playing on denser tables, it's clear there's a need to update the guidance on how to build the best MCP board.   While Shick and Pagani have made comments about creating something official (which we will link here as soon as it's available), we wanted to get something out quickly so players can start getting a feel for these new types of table setups. The Table This table is not intended to be strict rules you must follow. Instead, these are guidelines that will, on average, lead you to a good play experience.   You may notice that the suggested minimum and maximum values for a table don’t match the minimum and maximum numbers when the chart is added up.

Introduction to KR Foam  So, if you haven't used KR Foam before, the short version is that it's far and away the best foam storage option on the market but with the most confusing web-store.

These two allow for the most flexibility in what trays you bring from their catalog, as the majority of their trays are half-width and th...

Handy Cheat Sheets

For Second Wind (the biggest MCP tournament in Chicago!), the Alfredo’s Size 3 Taco Truck podcast created some helpful cheat sheets as part of the swag bag that I wanted to share here with everyone who couldn’t make it. One side has all the crisis deployments translated to inches (very handy if you’re like me and still have a tape measure in your minis bag) and the other has some useful measurements and dice odds for on-the-fly calculations. They’re sized to be printed on a 4×6 card , so they can fit in whatever you’re using to store character cards. Hope you find them useful!
