A Different kind of Justice League
Posted 12/05/2010 at 00:53 by xanosaucy
Today I decided to break away from playing an Underdog Team and play the established Justice League of America. With so many options you can't really go wrong unless you do it on purpose I suppose. I decided to play the founding members but as their more experienced versions.
JL Superman-This was a tough one, I almost played the Icons Exp Supes but decided to go all Modern Age. Since the oSinestro Corps had little Outwit I went for it.
BatB Wonder Woman-AA Wonder Woman is my go to gal but since we were playing 1000 points I settled with her. Her steady AV's will prove useful.
AA Batman-My first choice was OotS Bats because whenver I play WW & Bats I try to keep Batman at a lower point value. I couldn't this time because then I'd be short 50 some points so Lampost Bats will have to be a team player.
BD Martian Manhunter-Oreo King is my go to Martian but I have yet to use this incarnation and it looks good. So the lower point value wins again.
BD Aquaman-This guy is a beast no doubt about it. Used him once but bad rolls kept him down. Now was the chance for redemption.
BN Green Lantern-I prefer Hal from Crisis but that Hal is more of a team player, I needed a ranged beast and this one gets it done.
Cr Flash-Can't wait to get my hands on the new Barry Allen till then this one will do. I always try to push this one to get to his 3rd click of Willpower and HSS with 3 damage...beastly.
Going up against the Sinestro Corps I had to watch for the TK tricks we were playing on the Icons starter map outdoors so I used that to my advantage and circled the left flank using the buildings to block their LoF. The game ended as quickly as it began. Prime went in and missed! Even with a Perplexed attack he was stranded with Yellow Lantern giving him 18 Defend. Sinestro from a distance smacked the King of the Sea with Penetrating Blast.
Everyone focus fired on Prime first Bats with Outwit for 3, then Martian with PsyBlast, then Superman with HSS. Barry pushed to keep Prime's HSS Outwitted.
Arkillo charged in with a Perplexed 11 AV to rip Superman a new one for 3 damage with EW and then Prime for 2 more after Invulnerability leaving him on his White Defensive Power. My opponent hesitated attacking him knowing he would put him on his 19 D if he attacked him. So he cleared the rest.
I did 1 move that bought me at least 5 or 6 turns, Wonder Woman flew in and tied up both Sinestro and Scarecrow preventing Sinestro from Pen Blasting my crew. Aquaman moved, attacked and ko'd a weakened Manunter. Tying up Amon Sur as well. I had to keep them tied up as they can be deadly at a distance.
As expected my opponent went after Wonder Woman with a Perplexed Sinestro and Scarecrow. Arkillo smacked Superman into his 19 DV click.
My turn Manhunter Psy Blasted and ko'd Prime and Flash moved to harrass Lyssa Drak. Bats lept to another Rooftop to Outwit Sinestro Perplex to help keep Wonder woman alive a little longer. WW pushed and ko'd Scarecrow in 1 hit! Critical hit plus CCE! Hal reached deep and smaked Amon Sur and the other Manhunter good thanks to the Martian's PC. Arkillo and Siestro were the only threats now but since I had so many I knew it was over.
I ended up losing Aquaman, WW and Superman in the process but they served their roles very well. Aquaman got his redemption knocking out Lyssa on his way out as well. I know the picture below is Wally but dying Barry looks bad on camera.
