Just like the base game, this scenario is designed for 1 to 4 players. Team coordination will be crucial to overcome the threat of The Wrecking Crew!

A game of The Wrecking Crew usually takes between 45 and 90 minutes, depending on the number of players and the group's experience. Get ready for intense combat!
Is this expansion too complex for someone new to Marvel Champions?
