Oh, okay. Looks like were starting to move them. Must have changed your mind.

Silver Surfer taxis the Beast. Surfer in L17 Beast in L18

Dr. Strange to O17

Silver Surfer @ L17
Beast L18
Dr. Strange @ O17

"Y'know Stephen," the Beast said, "that really gives me the willies."

"I'm sorry, Hank," Dr. Strange apologized. "It was necessary." With a word from the sorceror the all-seeing Eye of Agamotto dislodged itself from his forehead and returned to its resting place inside the amulet at his throat.

"What does your mystic eye show you, Strange?"

"They are inside, the vampire and Batman as well, plus two of Batman's allies - Nightwing and Robin."

"Robin?" Beast asked. "Isn't he only, like fourteen or fifteen? I'm not sure I like the idea of fighting children."

"You were not much older when you started at Xavier's School."

"True, and Bobby was younger than I was."

"Don't underestimate him for his youth." Strange said. "He was trained by the best."

"If we know they are in there," the Surfer asked, "should we not move in before they can establish themselves defensively?"

"Knowing what I've heard of Batman," the Beast said, hopping aboard Norrin Radd's surfboard as Strange's cloak of levitation lifted him into the air, "he's probably already prepared."

Batman to N10, stealthed. He'll outwit Surfer's running shot.

Vamps to J11 stealthed. He'll outwit Strange's rce.

N5 Robin (stealthed)
N10@ Batman
J11@ Vampire Batman
K5 Nightwing (stealthed)

HO K5, LO N5, N10

The Batmans split and like Robin and Nightwing, find a hiding spot to view their targets. They know it won't last but they take whatever advantage they can.

Recall, only your most expensive piece actually gets to use the TA, so Vampire Batman is stealthed. Regular Batman just has the normal hindering terrain bonus.

Beast will move to H13.

Beast @ H13
Dr. Strange O17

"My stars and garters," the Beast said, loping quickly through the lobby to the cover of the food court, "there are more bats in here than in the Mets dugout." He was through the doorway before either Batman could get a shot in at him.

My fault, I thought regular Batman had stealth but he does not. i guess I can't really go by memory

Vampire Batman will outwit Surfer's defense. Attacks him...Needs 9, rolls 2. Oh god, this will be a quick game.

Batman will attack Beast. Needs 7, rolls 6. Grrrr....He's outwit Strange's rce.

Robin to N13

N13@@ Robin
N10@@ Batman
J11@@ (1) Vampire Batman
K5 Nightwing (stealthed)

HO K5, LO N5, N10

"Not good at hiding are they Nightwing?" Robin asks.

"They probably don't need to. My guess is they're tough enough not to care what we try."

"Hmmm....that doesn't sound goo..." Robin starts to say before seeing the Surfer ready to attack Batman.

"Nooooooooooo!" yells Robin and he runs to get in the way of the attack....

Very selfless of Robin. He does block LoF from Strange, but not from the Surfer, sadly.

Beast Perplexes up Surfer's damage to 4.

Surfer attacks Batman. AV11 against DV16 +1 for hindering, needs a 6. Gets a 7 for 4 to Batman.

With his Outwit gone, Strange's RCE is back. Strange attacks Robin. AV10 on DV16, needs a 6. Gets a 9. 4 to Robin.

Silver Surfer @ L17
Beast H13
Dr. Strange @ O17

"Oh, child!" Strange says with regret at Robin leapt to intercept the blast meant for his mentor. "Forgive me, I did not mean..."

"Didn't mean what?" Robin asked. "To give me credit for being tougher than you expect."

Strange is impressed that Robin is still up, though he knws the bravado is only a show.

Surfer meanwhile picks off Batman as easily as flying through an asteroid belt.

Painful, painful game.

Vamp will outwit Surfer's running shot.

Nightwing to K10. Outwits Beasts charge.

N13 (4) Robin
N10 (4) Batman
J11(1) Vampire Batman (stealthed)
K10@ Nightwing

HO K5, LO N5, N10

Um, there's no way Nightwing in K10 can Outwit Beast in H13. There's distinctly a wall in the way. If you wanted him to Outwit Beast, you'd have to move him all the way to H14 or G14, and either way, you'd be basing Beast, so he wouldn't really need his charge.

What do you want to do?

Ah, I have Beast at H14, not H13.

Nightwing will outwit Strange's rce instead. Your move.

Beast will Perplex up his AV to 10 and Charge. Moves to J12 and attacks Vampire Batman. AV10 against DV16. Needs a 6. Gets a 3. Bah.

Silver Surfer will push to attack Nightwing. AV11 on DV16, needs a 5. HE gets a 3. And takes a point for the push.

Dr. Strange O17

The Beast leapt out from cover and came feet first at the vampire.
"Boo!" he said.
His joking was abruptly halted when the vampire moved with amazing swiftness, and his feet merely connected with the wall instead. He recovered adroitly, bouncing off the wall and regaining his feet just in front of the vampire.
"Hm, not bad," McCoy admitted.
The vampire said nothing, merely poised himself to attack.

The lobby was lit by a corruscating blast of energy from the Surfer at the newly emerged Nightwing. Nightwing was ready for it though and threw himself flat against the floor. When the blast stopped, the area behind Nightwing was a steaming wreck, but the hero himself was unharmed.

"My goodness, Surfer," the Beast said, "and they wonder why insurance rates are so high around here."
