Is the BFC Armor Wars or Rushed Assault? It's got the name of one and the description of the other.

Edit: I see you sneakily edited it in order to make me look like a raving lunatic. Well Played, Turtle. Well Played.

I hope you don't mind, but I numbered your figures so they'd be easier to keep track of on the map.

Also, the cars, trucks, trailer, etc. are hindering terrain, right?

Good luck to you too.

Marauders: Turn 1

free) "Vertigo, cover our approach!" Scalphunter barks. Vertigo's powers blanket the area, dizzying and confusing the Defenders. Vertigo perplexes Blockbuster's movement up to 9

1) "Blockbuster, clear the way and get ready to smash heads!" "Ya don't have to tell me that twice Scalp'" the massive mutant rumbles as he strides to Q1 (movement perplexed), picking up the LO in P1

2) "Good job, I'm right behind you!" Scalphunter darts to O4.

free) "This should take care of one-eye" Scalphunter grins as he tosses a tear gas grenade towards Cyclops. The grenade detonates at his feet, choking and blinding Scott, preventing him from focusing his optic blasts. Scalphunter outwits Cyclops RCE (LOF chart confirms it).

3) "Follow me Creed, and try to control yourself, you'll get plenty of chances to shed blood later" Scalphunter commands, Sabretooth answers with an angry snarl as he runs to O2

2) "Good job, I'm right behind you!" Scalphunter darts to O5.

Scalphunter can make it to O-4. He'd have to stop because he's crossed two diagonally adjacent squares of hindering terrain (the LO at O-3 and the car at N-4). Alternatively, he can end at P-3 or M-1 through 3 or N 1 through 3.

Let me know where you want Scalphunter to end his move.

10/13/2006, 16:29

Sorry about that, I have him at O4 on my map, which is where he was supposed to go (and outwit Cyke's RCE from). So Scalp's in O4

"This is no traffic accident! We must remain alert, for my vast mental powers sense the presence of those who staged this ambush nearby," intones Moondragon.

"I could have told you that without any 'vast mental powers'," retorts the Black Cat.

"Silence, Earthwoman! I am the most accomplished telepath of Titan! I will not be mocked by a tawdry cat burglar!" says Moondragon.

"'Tawdry cat burglar?' Well, you can forget about getting a Christmas gift from me this year. Real shame too. I had a nice wig picked out for you, baldy," says Black Cat.

Everybody clears.

free) Vertigo keeps up the low-level blanket effect of confusion to keep the Defenders off their toes. Vertigo perplexes Riptides speed up to 11

1) "Oh man, I am going to ENJOY this!" Riptide cackles madly as he spins to P1 (speed perplexed)

2) "Don't think you boys get to hog all the fun yourself" Vertigo runs to Q3 to catch up.

free) Scalphunter laughs as he tosses another gas grenade at Cyclops, envolping the mutant in clouds of noxious smoke. Scalphunter outwits Cyke's RCE again.

"Dammit, we're too exposed on this overpass! Moondragon, grab Hepzibah; Namor, you take Black Cat; Ororo, you get me, and prepare to move out!" orders Cyclops.

"Flee if you will, mutant, but the avenging Son of Atlantis does not run from his enemies!" vows the Sub-Mariner.

"You idiot, we walked into an ambush. They knew we were coming and set us up. If we don't move, they'll pick us off. Better to regroup and counterattack," says Cyclops.

"The Prince of Atlantis is no coward! Let them face the power of Namor if they dare!" declares the Sub-Mariner.

"Scott's plan is a sound one. Does the Prince of Atlantis believe the Queen of Wakanda is a coward as well?" asks Storm.

"Feh. Your plan had better work, mutant," mutters the Sub-Mariner.

"The next time Hank and Bobby ask for a couple of X-Men guest stars to help save the Defenders' book from getting cancelled again, they can talk to Logan," grumbles Cyclops.

"Logan was their first choice, Scott," answers Storm.

"What?!"

"He's completely booked this month," explains Storm. "New Avengers, New X-Men, Astonishing X-Men, Adjectiveless X-Men, New and Improved X-Men, Minty Fresh X-Men, Civil War, Civil War: Frontline, Civil War: Between the Lines, Civil War: Walk the Line, Civil War: Sign on the Dotted Line, Ultimate Squirrel Girl, and Ultimate Howard the Duck."

1) Storm flies to R-14, carrying Cyclops to Q-13.

2) Moondragon flies to Q-14, carrying Hepzibah to R-15.

1) "Big talk, Creed." A familiar ruby beam of light streaks from Cyclops' eyes to Sabretooth. 9AV - 2 (for BFC) v. 15DV. Roll=5,3. Hit for 3 damage less 1 for toughness. Sabretooth takes 2 damage total. Cyclops gets 1 SA.

2) "I've met hundreds of alien races, but surely, your precise combination of stupidity, ugliness, and oafishness must be unique in the galaxy." Hepzibah moves to Q-9.

3) "Black Cat, find Scalphunter and keep an eye on him," orders Cyclops.

"Who died and made you king, One-Eye?"

"Why is everything like pulling teeth with you people? I've fought the Marauders before. I know how they fight. Scalphunter's up to something, I'm sure of it. So go find out what it is."

"All right, all right, I'll go," answers the Black Cat as she executes a flawless vault onto the overpass. "You know, I never understood what Jean Grey and Emma Frost saw in you." Black Cat leap/climbs to L-13.

Marauders: Turn 4

1) "Lucky shot Summers" Creed growls as he retreats back to the overpass to lick his wounds. Creed runs to P2 and takes one from the push.

free) "Oh look, a kitty, can I keep her Scalp'?" Vertigo laughs, "Better check if she's housebroken first". Vertigo giggles as she amps up her power. Vertigo perplexes her own atk. up to 10.

2) "Time to see if this little kitty can land on her legs!" Vertigo lets rip with her powers, assailing Hebzibah's sensitive senses on all fronts. Vertigo incaps Hebzibah. 10 atk. vs 14 def. Needs a 4. Roll is: (5,4) 9 for the hit. Super-senses roll is: 4. Hepzibah is hit, gets one token and takes 1 from the push. 1 SA for Vertigo

With a shrill scream Hepzibah falls to the ground and curls up in a ball as her entire world is turned inside out. The only thing left in the world that seems solid for the moment is the huge shadow of the man-mountain towering over her with murder in his eyes while Vertigo's laughter fills her ears.

3) "Ahahaha I'm gonna get myself a new fur coat tonight" Riptide cackles madly as he spins to R9

free) "Black Cat eh? Guess you were the unlucky one who drew the *human shield* lot huh? Tough break kitty-cat, you're about to find out at that all the bad luck in the world won't keep Scalphunter from trimming your lives down to size" Scalphunter lunges forward with the speed of a striking snake, grasping Felicia's leg, throwing her to the ground with practiced ease. Smiling cruelly, he drives a boot into Felicia's back, pinning her to the ground. "Let's see you slip out of this one then".
Scalphunter outwits Black Cat's leap/climb

Defenders Turn 5

1) "Ororo, I want to see exactly what we're up against here." Storm flies to X-10, carrying Cyclops to X-9.

2) "Namor, Moondragon, take out Vertigo," orders Cyclops.

"This is intolerable! No man may order the Avenging Son of Atlantis about as a mere lackey!"

"You can argue with me, or you can hit someone--which was what you wanted just a minute ago. And you'd better do it soon, because Hepzibah needs the help!"

"We will have words after the Avenging Son of Atlantis wins this battle, mutant."

Moondragon concentrates, using her telekinetic powers to boost Namor's flight speed.

Moondragon TKs Sub-Mariner to U-5.

3) "Imperius Rex!" Namor charges Vertigo, moving to Q-2. 10AV v. 14DV. Roll=3,1. Super Senses roll=4. Hit for 6 damage (4 base damage plus HO). Vertigo is KO'd. Sub-Mariner gets 1 SA and 1 KO. The HO Sub-Mariner was carrying is gone. Moondragon gets 1 AST for TKing Sub-Mariner into position.

Vertigo has barely enough time to let loose a short, shrill scream as Namor swats her with a car door. Unable to dodge the blow, she slumps to the ground, unconscious.

"As deserving of that blow as she was," says Moondragon, "surely, that was overdoing it a litte, wasn't it?"

"Bah. Force is the only thing villains such as these surfacer scum understand," responds Namor.

"Yeah, is that why you've stopped invading New York?" asks the Black Cat over the mental link established by Moondragon. "Because the Fantastic Four kicked your Speedo-wearing butt?"

"Silence, surface woman! The Prince of Atlantis will not abide your taunts!"

"Hey, until the Prince of Atlantis pays me back for the Manolo Blahniks ruined by the flooding he caused the last time he invaded New York, he can kiss my ---"

Cyclops, Black Cat, and Hepzibah clear.

Marauders Turn 5

1) "I ain't got time for you, yet, so get out of my way" Scalphunter snarls as he tries to barge aside the cat. Scalphunter tries to break for a running shot. Roll is: 4 and a success (Thank you lady luck!). Tossing the cat aside, Scalphunter runs to the edge of the overpass at P8. With practiced ease he fires an SMG over his shoulder towards the Cat, while pouring fire directly down on Hepzibah as well. Scalphunter makes a running shot to P9, gunning for the Cats. 11 atk. vs 15 and 14 def. Needs a 4 for everyone, a 3 for Hepzibah. Roll is: (5,1) a 6 for the hit. Super-senses roll is: (6) Hepzibah dodges. Black Cat takes 3, 1 SA for Scalphunter.

Recovering at the last second, Hepzibah rolls to the side as Scalphunter's burst of fire strikes the ground she was standing on a second ago. Black Cat, however, is not so lucky as several bullets strike home, wounding her severly.

2) "Nice moves kitty-cat" Riptide giggles, " Now let's see you do it again!" Riptide pushes to flurry Hepzibah. 7 atk. vs 14 def. Needs a 7. Roll is: (3,3) a 6 and a miss. Second attack, roll is: (6,2) 8 and a hit. Super-senses roll is: 6 Hepzibah dodges again! Riptide takes one from the push.

3) "My turn to play with the kitty!" Blockbuster roars as he swings wildly for Hepzibah with a truck tire. 8 atk. vs 14 def. Needs a 6. Roll is: (1,1) critical miss! (AAARGGGHHH!) Blockbuster smacks himself in the face with his tire... Blockbuster takes 1 from the critical miss, is injured and the LO is destroyed.

free) Scalphunter cries a little inside as he throws yet another gas grenade at Cyclops, keeping the X-man too busy choking and gagging to do much else. Scalphunter outwits Cyclops RCE.

Creed rests.

Well, thank goodness for supersenses is all I can say. I don't think it's over, though. Scalphunter with Protected is still a real menace.

Also, I assume that Scalphunter is at P8, but there is an inconsistency. It's not going to affect anything that I do this turn, but just let me know where Scalphunter is.

Defenders Turn 7

1) "A little help here, guys?" says Black Cat. In response to Black Cat's request, the skies darken. A bolt of lightning streaks from the skies, striking Scalphunter. Only the insulation provided by his armor saves Scalphunter from the worst of the lightning bolt.

Storm attacks Scalphunter with RCE. 8AV v. 17DV. Roll=6,3. Hit (and a very lucky one at that). Scalphunter would take 3 damage less 1 for toughness, but uses Protected to avoid damage. Scalphunter gets 1 token. Storm gets 1 SA.

2) "Namor, Moondragon, form on me."

"The Prince of Atlantis grows weary of your insolent tone, mutant."

"As do I. You presume too much to order Titan's high priestess about as a common servant."

"What is it with you people? Logan isn't even this much trouble. Look, we can argue later, but right now, Black Cat needs our help."

Namor flies to W-9, picking up the HO at V-10.

3) Moondragon flies to W-10.

Cyclops, Black Cat, and Hepzibah clear.

Marauders Turn 7

1) Clutching his bleeding face, Riptide spits with fury "I'm gonna flay for you that!" Riptide swings at Hepzibah (prepare for another critical miss...). 6 atk. vs 14 def, needs an 8. Roll is: (2,2) a 4 and a miss (well, it was close...).

2) "Don't know how you did that kitty-cat, but I'm ya gonna be real sorry real soon!" Blockbuster swings out at Hepzibah with brutal force. 8 atk. vs 14 def. Needs a 6. Roll is: (3,5) an 8 for the hit. Super-senses roll is: 2 (I don't believe this, who are you, and what have you done with my dice-roller!!!). Hepzibah takes 3 and is KO'ed. 1 SA and 1 KO for Blockbuster.

Nimbly dodging under Riptide's latest hail of lethal projectiles, Hepzibah's evasion takes her directly into the path of Blockbuster. The lumbering giant doesn't waste this oppertunity, as his devastating sucker-punch connects with enough force to bring down a redwood. Standing triumphant over his miniscule oppenents battered body, Blockbuster laughs cruelly "Come on Fishboy! 'Fraid to go one-on-one with the man who broke Thor's arm?"

3) Completely lost in his savage blood fury, Creed rushes towards Black Cat, heedless of all danger. Sabretooth pushes to run to N7.

free) Scalphunter curses Storm's lucky shot all the way to hell and back, as he snatches another grenade from his seemingly limitless supply, once again enveloping Cyclops in peasoup-thick fog. Scalphunter outwits Cyke's RCE.

free) Creed growls in pain from the kick as his healing factor starts to kick in. Sabretooth uses Auto-regeneration. Roll is: 5, Creed heals 3 clicks. As he licks his own blood from his lips he growls menacingly "Not good enough kitten!"

1) Scalphunter tries to barge the Cat aside again. Scalphunter tries to break, roll is: 1 (####!) but she deftly side-steps and blocks his path.

1) As Scalphunter fires his flare gun, the Black Cat grins. "Heh. You're about to get a taste of those 'vast mental powers' Baldy's always bragging about."

Though temporarily blinded, Moondragon reaches out with her telepathic powers and forces a surge of raw mental energy into Scalphunter's twisted mind.

Moondragon attacks Scalphunter. 10AV v. 17DV. Roll=6,6. Hit for 2 damage, plus 1 for the critical hit, less 1 for toughness. Scalphunter takes 2 damage total and is injured. No knockback because Black Cat is right behind him. Moondragon gets 1 SA.

2) Scalphunter screams in pain, but gets no reprieve as another bolt of lightning strikes him.

Storm attacks Scalphunter with RCE. 8AV v. 16DV. Roll=6,5. Hit for 3 damage less 1 for toughness. Scalphunter takes 2 damage total. Storm gets 1 SA.

3) "Great work, Moondragon and Ororo! Scalphunter's on the ropes!"

Cyclops attacks Scalphunter with RCE. 9AV v. 15DV. Roll=3,5. Hit for 3 damage less 1 for toughness. Scalphunter takes 2 damage total. Cyclops gets 1 SA.

Black Cat screams in pain as Creed's talons dig into savagely into her back, falling unconcious to the ground with a whimper. Sabretooth licks her blood of his claws and roars in triumph!

2) "Riptide, distract the Fishboy while I get in position" Blockbuster rumbles "What? Me? How?" Is all Riptide can stutter before Blockbuster hoists him up, hurling him directly at Namor. "Like so!" He booms. Riptide runs to V8

3) "Better make ya next shot count Cyke, 'cause I've gots no problems hitting a guy with glasses!" Blockbuster roars as he lumbers to W5

The first character to make an attack targeting an opposing figure during a game gets –2 to its attack value until the attack resolves.

If Namor would like to round this up by injuring Riptide as well, here's his chance :)

Yeah, I've gotten some ridiculously lucky rolls this game. And believe me, I am just as surprised as you are. I really should have bought some lottery tickets or gone to Vegas instead :)

Defenders Turn 10

1) "All right, good work everybody," says Cyclops. "We've turned the tables on their ambush. We did it by working together as a team. And we're going to win this battle by working together as a team. Now, this is what I want everybody to do. Namor, you ..."

"Imperius Rex!" Ignoring Cyclops' orders, the Sub-Mariner brushes aside Riptide and flies straight for Blockbuster, ramming the massive supervillain at full speed.

Namor breaks away. Roll=4. Success.

Namor charges, moving to W-6, and attacks Blockbuster. 10AV v. 17DV. Roll=6,1. Hit for 4 damage, plus 2 for the HO, less 1 for Toughness. Blockbuster takes 5 damage total and is KO'd. Namor gets 1 SA and 1 KO, and the HO he was holding is destroyed.

Everybody else clears.

I never thought the day would come when I'd feel bad about rolling a critical hit, but if it's any consolation, I am sorry about the crit hit I rolled this round. I was just hoping for enough to finish off Scalphunter, not what I actually rolled.

Defenders Turn 11

1) "All right, Scalphunter, this is for all those Morlocks you and your band of psychopaths killed." Cyclops fires a beam of ruby light from his eyes, striking Scalphunter in the face.

Cyclops attacks Scalphunter with RCE. 9AV v. 14DV. Roll=6,6. (I actually cringed when I saw this roll--I really did not want that to happen.) Scalphunter takes 4 damage less 1 for Toughness, which is more than enough to KO him. Cyclops gets 1 SA and 1 KO.

2) Moondragon fires a telekinetic bolt at Riptide. 10AV v. 14DV + 2 for ESD. Roll=4,6. Hit for 2 damage. Moondragon gets 1 SA.

3) "You will not escape justice, Marauder." Storm moves to V-9.

Sub-Mariner clears.

Marauders Turn 11

1) Battered and bruised, Riptide still tries vainly to build up enough speed to punch through Storm's guarding wind. Riptide strikes Storm. 4 atk. vs 14 def. Needs a 10 (come on critical miss!). Roll is: (6,5) 11 and a hit (What just happened?). Storm takes 1, 1 SA for Riptide.

With a suprising speed, Riptide accelerates, hurling a swarm of spikes and stars at the Windrider, a vicious, barbed spike actually punching through the wind-wall, lodging itself deep in Ororo's shoulder. Storm cries out in pain and shock, amazed that Riptide could still land a hit (but not as amazed as I am...)

2) Sabretooth stalks along the Overpass to N13, hoping to find some civilians still stuck in their cars.

Might as well try a few last Hail Mary's...

Marauders Turn 12

1) "You're getting careless Storm, big mistake!" Riptide howls as he speeds up again, encouraged by his earlier success. Riptide pushes to swing at Storm again. 4 atk. vs 14 def. Needs a 10. Roll is: (4,3) 7 and a miss. Riptide takes 1 from the push.

This time, however, Storm is ready for him and easily deflects the hail of lethal projectiles with a gust of hurricane-force wind

2) "Ya're fishfood gubby!" Sabretooth snarls as he leaps for the scion of Atlantis, claws extended. Sabretooth slashes for Namor, 7 atk. vs 16 def. Needs a 9. Roll is: (5,2) 7 and a miss (no suprise there). Sabretooth takes 1 from the push.

Namor easily catches the savage mutant by the throat in mid-air, holding him at bay at arms length...

Good game. I know full well that I won that game not because of any brilliant strategy of mine, but simply because I made my rolls. Also, you had a few really bad breaks, most notably that turn where Hepzibah made her Super Senses rolls and when Blockbuster crit missed. I have no idea why the dice roller decided to favor me, although with one exception, I'm happy it did.

I am sorry about the second crit hit on Scalphunter though and hope he won't sit out the rest of the season.
