"They just got Salaak!" Cyborg yells, "What say we give Kang a 3-fer?" he says to his new allies.

"Kang...your drive for expansion is legend. You claim mastery of time but that will not stop you against me," Nebula says blasting him. It bounces off of Kang's force field.

"Want to bet?" he says. He turns, "And you, girl, my force field easily keeps you out."

Batgirl gets up from her attempted attack, the force field having kept her down. "Tell me about it."

Wow, I really escaped that unscathed?

My event is a 3 for Redux. Deathstroke gets it, though it's mostly wasted.

He will simply Perplex up Red Hood's DV to 18

Red Hood to O11

Kang on Nebula, AV9 on DV17. Gets 7.

Nothing too exciting there.

Solovar on Superman, using one of his own tokens to make his AV11 on DV17. Gets 6. 2 more to Superman.

Xavier to Incap him, AV8 on DV15. Gets 8, a token and a push to Superman.

"Do not let up the pressure, Solovar," Xavier said. "As physically powerful as this Superman is, it seems he's met his match in our mental powers."

"Agreed," Solovar said. "Superman is from my world, and from what I know of him, I feared for our chances, but it seems every strength has its weakness."

I get 10, crazy 8s. Getting that a lot. Nebula and Dr. M swap. It doesn't help me in either case, only screws up my sitch.

Shazam's time to emerge from the pit. It's funny, both Shazam and Superman were real powerhouses back in the day but were both dud-ish ere. Shazam vs. Red Hood. Needs 8, rolls 7. Cyborg can reroll that: 8. RH makes it 6.

Reddy tks Nebula to P10.

Nebula on RH. Needs 8, rolls 5. For the love of Pete!

Cyborg can attack him via object in P11. This time Batgirl perplexes down RH's dv to 17, should have done so before. Needs 7, rolls 7. 3 to RH.

Ms. M hss to O11 attacking RH. Needs 6, rolls 7. Kang rerolls 6. He's out and Ms. M ends in O11 blocking d.r. That's a lot of work that Shazam should've been able to do on his own.

"You look like a nasty man!" Captain Marvel says, "The world will be a better place if I take you out of it for awhile!".

Red Hood dodges the blow with ease. "You're for real?".

"I was asking that myself but I can do what Captain Sunshine couldn't," Ms. Marvel says smacking him out.

Marvel looks to Marvel.

"You got a problem, kid?" Carol asks.

"Usually my derogatory nickname is Captain Whitebread," Marvel says.

"I'll keep that in mind."

I roll a 5 for Event, Amalgam. X-Men and Mystics is still a good combo. Probably won't use X-Men though.

Guessing Nebula's in P11. You have her and Shazam in P10, but Shazam's been there all along, so it's Nebula that must be off.

Cosmic Boy can come in for Red Hood. I need a TKer since Solovar is still off playing with Superman.

You don't mention the Lazarus Pit roll for Shazam, but since you didn't even attempt to Hypersonic, I'm guessing you didn't make it. So Red Hood did what he needed to do, which was to keep Shazam in place so that he couldn't run off to recover somewhere safe.

Sinestro will PSi-Blast Capt. Marvel. (I originally just wrote "Marvel". I guess I need to specify. AV11 on DV17 +1, since his LOF is cutting through hindering. Gets 5. Kang makes it 4. Crud.

Deathstroke on Capt. Marvel, same numbers. Gets 4. Cripes.

Cosmic Boy TKs Firestorm up to I8

Firestorm RCE on Shazam. AV10 on DV17. Gets the 7. Finally. 4 to Shazam after Toughness.

Got to clear in the duels.

"Captain Whitebread? I like that," Deathstroke said, as he and Sinestro tried to bring down Captain Marvel.

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me," Captain Marvel replied. "And actually, your sticks and stones aren't doing a whole lot of good either...off!"

"I guess I have better quality sticks," Firestorm said.

I'll take a turn here and then change the events for July. I roll 4; shrinkage. Been getting a lot of non-event events of late.

Manhattan wakes up from the pit. 4. Break? 1. Ugh. Manhattan on Kang. Needs 6, rolls 9. Kang rerolls 4. Wait, Cyborg can pc that from
P13: 12. Imperv is 3. 2 to Kang.

Ms. M on Kang. Needs 7, rolls 8. 1 to him.

Over in the duel Superman vs. Chuck. Needs 7, rolls 7. He's out.

"Once again, I'll hold him mentally...." Professor X says.

"You won't have the chance. Forgive me but I'm much more than you think I am. I've been going gentle with you so far," Superman says unleashing a heat blast on Xavier.

"Now, it's you and I, Solovar."

"I am ready," Solovar says.

So Kang's finally Pitted.

Manhattan failed his Pit roll. What about Shazam?

Shazam did make the pit roll. First try. And I suppose Firestorm's damage would have been different if I'd noticed. Anyway, he's pit-free but not Dr. M.

Sorry about presuming on Shazam. I figured if he were recovered, you'd have used his HSS.

Rolling for Impervious for Firestorm's attack would have been a 4, so Shazam should be at 3, not 4 then.

I roll a 4 for Shrinkage again, and your non-event becomes a very eventful event, as I lose Cosmic Boy, which is annoying, but you lose Cyborg, which doubtless hurts worse, before the borders spring back to the original.

Deathstroke Outwits Shazam's Invulnerable and tries to hit him. AV11 on DV15. Gets 8. 3 to him.

So, I suppose with Manhattan vulnerable, this may be the time to use that Worldbreaker I drafted. Fortitude, of course. And since I need to get him there, and I don't have Cosmic Boy anymore, I'll go to the Batman set for Halo, and do Endurance on her.

Halo TKs Worldbreaker to I15.

Worldbreaker on Manhattan. AV12 on DV18. Gets a 3. Oh, somehow I knew that was coming.

Loki on Manhattan, AV10 on DV18. Gets 6.

Firestorm pushes on Manhattan. AV10 on DV18 +1. Gets 5.

What an awful time for my dice to crap out.

Solovar on Superman, AV10 on DV14. Gets 7. Superman is KOd. That's something out of this turn, at least. Well that and the free KO on Cyborg. I'll take that too.

"Arrgh! Hulk will smash Blue Man!" the Hulk said, swinging his massive fist at Dr. Manhattan.

"No," Dr. Manhattan said, held up his palm and seemingly without effort, stopped the punch.

"That's...impressive," even Loki admitted, his eyebrows raised.

Ms. Marvel stared with her mouth agape. "Did he just...?" she finally said.

"I just defeated Superman!" Solovar said upon his return. He looked around, expecting more of an impression.

"Sorry. I think you just got upstaged," Halo told him.

Since hss isn't a given anymore I figured I might as well go with Red Hood, who's annoying enough.

I roll a 5, cutthroat.

Before I do that, some clean up. Manhattan rolls for laz pit: 5. He's good.

Replacing Cyborg is Nightwing.

Now to the cutthroat.

Loki phases to A14, he takes a token and a click.

Hulk turns off his indom and moves to ..wait he has to break away. 3. Never mind, it's still a push though.

Sinestro to A1.

Solovar turns off his indom too and lcs to A19.
