Set Wars:

[flyingicarus]

With the 10 Heroclix anniversary coming up in 2012, we're doing a set retrospective taking us from Infinity Challenge all the way to, well whatever set is out by the time we get to that.

The idea is simple. We each get a set, round 1 is in chronological order, I get the first set; Gargantua the second and they face off. Next game has Gargantua getting the next set in line vs. my getting the one after and so on. We each get 1000 points in characters. Each character can have one feat and that feat can only be used once per set.

Once all of the winning sets are determined we'll have a round two. Round two will likely involve some tweaking, and probably no longer go chronologically. Additionally older figures may get a cost modification if going up against a newer one. This will probably be something like a 25% cost reduction or something like that.

Game 1: Infinity Challenge soundly defeated Hypertime
Game 2: Clobberin' Time finally beat Xplosion
Game 3: Cosmic Justice edged out Critical Mass for the win.
Game 4: Ultimates leashed Unleashed with ease.
Game 5: Mutant Mayhem were finally toppled by Legacy
Game 6: Fantastic Forces vs Icons, here and now!

"Sigh. Have you another set of 'champions' for me, Grandmaster?" the Lord of Time asks feigning disinterest.

"I do."

"I suppose you may tell me. I could use the nap."

"Earth's mightiest hero, Superman, should keep you awake."

"Powerful. And old news. Next?".

"Batman, detective extraordinaire. In many ways even more of a force to be reckoned with."

"A beast indeed but against a powerhouse he has little effect."

"Wonder Woman is a dynamo."

"And as predictable as the other two. No doubt powerful but such a known quantity is counterable."

"Sisters Blackfire and Starfire with their ranged destruction are next. The manic skill of the Joker. Flash, the fastest being alive."

"Who else?".

"The bloodthirsty Cheetah. Raven's soul-numbing mysticism. Ummmm....Man-Bat."

"You always know how to make me laugh."

"I'll begin with the unparalleled genius of Mister Fantastic," the Lord of Time said.

"I'll grant his intelligence is respected throughout the cosmos, for a human. Nothing compared to ours of course."

"Of course. The similarly brilliant though dangerously unstable Green Goblin."

"Oh, a madman. Yes, that's frightening. And he's hardly on RIchard's level."

The Lord of Time ignored him and went on. The Sub-Mariner and the Juggernaut, powerhouses without peer."

"I think you'll find more than a peer in my Superman."

"We shall see about that. Mistress of the sound construct Songbird. Plucked from the future, Wolverine and a new Spider-Man. Archer extraordinaire, Hawkeye..."

"Ooh, medieval weapory. You'll be threatening me with sticks and f lint axes next."

"Lockjaw, the canine Inhuman to whom space and distance mean nothing. And the double magical threat of the Scarlet Witch and Earth's Sorceror Supreme, Doctor Strange."

"They at least could make this...interesting. Not that they concern me, but interesting, yes..."

First move - cripes, it's virtually impossible to play it completely safe with Superman out there. He can get to someone 18 squares away from your starting area, ignoring Stealth, and Starfire is pretty darn close to that.

Hawkeye to C19/B20, with Reed to B19

Namor to G20, grabs the HO in I21

Norman taxis Juggernaut. Norm to H20, G21 for Cain.

"Uh-uh. No way. I am not working with him," the Spider-Man from the future said, pointing at the Green Goblin. "I've heard stories about him."

"It's true, I've had periods of insanity, but I'm fine now. The meds they have me on work wonders," the Green Goblin said.

"I don't blame Spidey for being skeptical. Osborn's always been cuckoo for Coco Puffs. And he is in the Goblin costume. That's always a bad sign," Hawkeye said.

"He seems sane enough to me now," the Sub-Mariner said.

"VIllains can reform," Songbird said. "Juggernaut and I are prime examples of that."

"Fine. We work with him," Wolverine said. "But I'm keepin' a close eye on you, and one false move, just one, and I'm giving you a new nostril, get me?" He asked popping one claw precariously near the Goblin's face.

"Of course," Osborn grinned.

[flyingicarus]

I've decided that for these games I'm only posting a story post between GM & LOT. It just seems that we're not focusing on story so much here.

Raven to D6.

Alright, Superman's the only one that can do anything this turn. HSS to H14, attacks Spidey. Needs 5, gets 4. Raven makes it 5. SS is 1. 5 to Spidey. Supes ends in I13.

Blackfire to C6.

Starfire to K7, carting Cheetah to K6.

[Gargantua]

I figured an intial story for the characters, certainly not for every turn. But we don't even have to do that.

I figured someone was going to get hit by Superman, and at least if I had some say in who it was...Spider-Man's a pity, sure but better than one of my big guns.

I suppose some pushing is in order if I'm going to get Superman while I've got the chance.

Spidey to G12

Lockjaw taxis Wanda. Lockjaw to I/J17, Wanda to H17

Songbird TKs Marko to E15. That's a push.

Marko grabs the LO from D15, Charges to H13 to hit Superman, AV12 on DV18. Gets 8. Spidey's blocking Raven's LOF. Impervious is 6. Of course it it.

Reed to D21, Perplexes Wolveirne's move to 9.

Wolverine Charges to H14 to attack Supes, AV12 on DV18. Gets 6. Blades is 4. Impervious is 5.

Well, he is Superman, I suppose he should be that hard to hurt.

One more shot at him. Osborne, RS to I16, attacks Supes, AV11 on DV18. Gets 2. Wanda says no. Wanda says 8. Superman's Impervious says 1. 2 to him at last.

[flyingicarus]

They were misses but I should point out Cain and Wolvie were attacknig Supes from elevated terrain. Cain, at least. has 0 range.

[Gargantua]

That's not elevated, it's hindering. Elevated's red.

[flyingicarus]

Oh. Right.

Not much to do this turn. Thought of moving Flash but none of the available choices are worth the risk.

[Gargantua]

Reed Perplexes Namor's Move to 11. That lets him Charge 6 squares to I14 to attack Supes with his HO. AV11 on DV16. Gets 8. Impervious is 1. 4 to Superman.

Hawkeye RS to G21/F22, uses his Trick Shot to attack Superman, AV11 on DV15. Gets 10. 1 to Superman and it is Doubles, so he is also KB to I12

So. That kind of neuters Superman. He's still got major damage dealing potential, but with the 8AV he's on now, getting that damage to stick is going to be tough.

Spider-Man pushes, Pounces to B7 to attack Blackfire, AV7 +1 on DV15. Gets 8. 2 to her after Toughness. 2 to Spider-Man too for Pouncign and pushing.

He Outwits Blackfire's Running Shot

You've got this one in the bag. Between my guys lack of mobility and my timid reaction to your team the IK gang are really lost. You might as well reveal your Collateral Damage team so we can be ready. This will only last a few turns.

Gotta push Superman. He's not likely to survive another turn. Needs 8 to hit Juggy, his best chance, rolls 10. 2 to Juggy, 1 to Supes.

Joker to G5, outwits Lockjaw's phasing.

Man-Bat to H11.

[Gargantua]

I, of all people, shouldn't have forgotten about the Joker's Outwit. I hang my head in shame.

On the other hand, Norman didn't move last turn, so he takes a token for using his Protected, but no damage. Even if he had, with his Willpower, he could still have not taken the push damage.

And speaking of Wonder Woman, you have her and Batman in J14 and K14. On the map they're in K and L14. BUt what I don't know is whether Batman's is correct in K and Wonder Woman should be in L, or whether they should both be shifted over with Bats in L and Diana in K. I expect that which is where will probably have a huge bearing on my turn.

[flyingicarus]

WW in L14, Bats K14.

[Gargantua]

I thought that might be the case, but it would have made a huge difference had it been the other way around. I see Batman Outwitted Norman's WIllpower, which I missed before. Still, he hadn't gone the previous turn so he just takes a token for using that Protected.

Wolverine Charges to J15 to attack Batman. AV11 on DV17. Gets 7. Blades roll is 3. I'll keep that. 3 to Batman and he's off his Outwit.

Norman gets his Willpower back. Attacks Wonder Woman, AV11 on DV17. Gets 4.

Songbird TKs Strange to E15.

Strange takes the Ultaimtes TA from Wanda and attacks Joker, AV11 on DV17. Gets 2. Wanda can help him. Rerolls 11. 3 to the Joker, as he's got no one to Mastermind to.

Lockjaw to N14/N15, taxiing Cain to M14

Strange switches back to the FFTA. Reed Perplexes Strange's DV to 17

So WW can attack Wolvie and put him smack on regen or Norman and give him outwit. Some choice. Wolvie. Needs 4, rolls 6. Ss is 5.

Flash moves 8 to N11 attacks Subby. Needs 4, rolls 12. Wanda makes it 8. 1 to him and he's still around....

Oh and thanks for the barrier, as if I don't have enough problems this game. :)

Um dude, that was your own Barrier from Raven.

Songbird TKs Strange to M20

Strange Outwits Wonder Woman's Imperv.

Norman on Wonder WOman, AV11 on DV17. Gets 5. Geez.

Reed Perplexes Strange's Damage to 4.

Strange on WW, AV11 on DV17. Gets 7. Faced with taking 4 or using her Protected and pushing for 1, I'm assuming you'll choose the latter. Took way longer to force her to use that Protected that I would have liked.

Wolverine on Batman. AV11 on DV15. Gets 10. Raven can help, makes it 7. Blades is a 5. No more Bats for you.

Lockjaw on Cheetah, AV8 on DV15. Gets 7. Only 1 to her, but it is an important 1 as it knocks her off Blades and thus Vampirism.

Wolverine Auto-Regens with a 6. You didn't need that. Well hopefully should wrap this one up that much sooner.

Flash isn't your biggest threat, but he's the closest. And I should deal with that 19DV

Wolverine Charges to I16, attacks Flash AV12 on DV19. Gets 7. Raven makes it a 10. Blades is 6. Oh Wolvie! This really is the best version of Wolverine.

Wanda on Flash, AV8 on DV14. ROlls 12 but SS is another 6.

Songbird TKs Strange to E15

Strange on Starfire, AV11 on DV16 +1. Gets 9. 3 to her after Toughness.

Lockjaw to E/F14, swinging by for an attack on the Joker en route. AV 7-2 on DV15. Gets 4. No dice.

Up to you if you want to go on, but this turn de-fanged the rest of your threats, really.
