100 to 1 Royal Rumble!

Round 1 - Battle 4 (Pre-Fight)

The first 100 Heroclix pieces made that are 100pts each are going to battle it out to see which one stands alone. In Round 1, each battle will feature 20 pieces fighting to survive to make it to the finals.

The 100 to 1 Royal Rumble!

Inspired by Crow (who was inspired by tipplej), I have decided to play out battles and present the results as a game for you to play! (This is something I've done before, and you can see for yourself here).

I am taking the first one hundred 100pt figures produced by WK -- starting with the original Sentinel up to the Convention Exclusive Dr. Fate (or CW Baron Zemo and Jinku depending on how you interpret the release timing) -- and I will conduct a series of battles that will lead to 20 pieces in the Final Battle Royale.

When figures act, they do so based on some criteria I picked up from Crow:
1. Avoid imminent KO/extreme harm
2. Fight greatest threat directly
3. Get KOs

Each battle the final 2 figures will get to move on to the Finals. Also, each battle, players can vote for one eliminated figure to continue on to the Finals. Lastly, the top 5 figures eliminated that still racked up the most KOs will advance. There are 5 Battles of 20 figures each, which should lead to a Final with the 10 survivors, 5 popular vote getters, and 5 top KO getters.

Each battle the players (that's you!) can choose your personal favorites to survive the battle. As they all share the same point cost, they will all be worth 100 game points. If they survive you get those points. Each battle, will also involve some opportunity for bonus points, so even if your heroes fall, there's still hope.

Later each week with the help of Jerry_Damage we will have an update to the Standings posted and then reveal the next line-up and layout of the battle to follow.

Did I mention prizes? I've done that before, too... so it could happen again!

Battle 4 - The Cast and The Map

Since All Characters are 100pts, they will be listed in Alpha Order and all characters are worth 100 game points when chosen correctly.

Turn Order and Placement is all Randomized.
Turn Order remains my secret though!

And here are their starting positions (as best as I can map them):
B= Blocking Terrain
h= Hindering
L= Light Object
H= Heavy Object

Now, you pick two figures to survive. Your picks are worth 100pts each, and here's a chance for more...

Each week will have a Wager offer where you can risk up to 200pts on a specific situation I choose. Your points cannot go negative, but by placing a wager and missing, you could wipe out the points you'd gain from choosing the survivors correctly. Yes, you can wager points you don't even have to try and get into the game in a big way!

The Week 3 Wager:
Ride The Waves

Okay, out of the 20 figures, how many are going to take at least one damage from a Pulse Wave attack?

Wager up to 200pts on your guess!

And here's a picture of the map before things get going:


Please post your picks and your wager in this thread before the write-up is posted next Tuesday. And please do so in an easy to read format like this:

Picks:
character 1
character 2
wager guess and wager point amount (or say 'no wager')


Thanks for playing and check back next Tuesday for the results!

Right here will be where I post the scores and the winner of the fan vote to make it to the finals...

And the fan votes at the time of this post going up are:

Name------------Votes
Gladiator----------22
Mouth of Sauron---11
Sinestro-----------10
Dr. Fate------------7
Super-Skrull--------5
Baron Zemo--------4

And with tremendous support Gladiator moves to the finals!

New folks and folks not seeing the results? It's still FAR from over!

Points from a single round could still vault someone into the lead!

FF Quasar
Young Superman

(tempted for Thunderstrike but.....nah!)



12 for Pulsewave. Dang you. Betting 35.


Edited on Monday morning for re-adjustment of Pulse Wave guess.

The Thing
Young Superman

No Wager for me.

Supergirl
Kilowog

8 figs get smacked with Pulse Wave - 10pt's

Quasar
Young Superman
20 pts on 12 hit by pulsewave

going for the thing and the first avenger

50 points on 8 being hit by a pulse wave

Young Superman
Quasar

Wager - 9 of them. I'll bet 50.

Pick 1: Young Superman
Pick 2: The Thing
Wager 50 points on 7 figures being hit

Bishop and the Thing

And a wager on 5 people getting pulse waved. I'll put 27 points on it.

My stalwart scorekeeper has been burdened by actual work, but as soon as I get updated scores I will update the scoreboard.

Fear not!

Supergirl and Thing.
I wanted to say Kilowog, but he starts way too close to Supergirl.

supergirl
young superman


0 figures take damage. the figure doing the pulse wave will crit miss. wager 75
