Okay, let's wrap this up

New Warriors: Turn 10

1) "I can feel her pain from here" Dagger whispers softly. "Quick, Marvel Boy, get me to her. "After what you just did to me, no problem!" Vance smiles, gently picking up Dagger with his TK, moving her across the rubble to Black Cat's hiding place. Marvel Boy TK's Dagger to O15 and takes 1 from the push.

2) "Let my light soothe your agony" Dagger intones softly, laying her glowing hands on Black Cat's terrible burns. Dagger supports Black Cat. 6 atk. vs 11 def. Needs a 5. Roll is: (1,4) for a 5 and barely a hit. Support roll is: 5. Black Cat heals 3.

The warming light envelops Felicia completely, and to her own amazement, her wounds heals before her eyes.

3) "You just dont get it, do you. Even if I stood still I'm sure you'd still manage to miss me. In fact, your only chance of beating me is if your B.O takes me down before I get too bored playing with you!" Peter quips, leaping, ducking and dodging over and under everything Kurg throws at him. "Just take a hint, why don't you, and STAY DOWN! Spidey tries to capture Kurg again, 9 atk. vs 11 (+4 from capture) def. Needs a 3 to KO and a 6 to Capture. Roll is: (4,3) for a 7 and the capture!

Driven by the spectacular proportional strength of a spider, Peters fists connects cleanly with Kurg's head yet again, sending him crashing back to the ground with a shattered jaw. Before the nearly unconcious brute can even try to regain his bearings (and his footing), Spidey empties to full web-cartridges over his prone form, tying him up in a virtual cocoon of harder-than-steel webbing.

"THAT should hold you! Now where did I put my camera..." Spider-Man grins, looking out over Times Square at a job well done, and the first (but hopefully not the last) victory of the New Warriors!

Thanks for helping me out with the villaining Vance, it was a good fight to the very end! I'll try to do all the post-match calculations shortly, but Id appreciate if you could look my numbers over to make sure I got it right, this being my first time and all

Also, do I get to make "end of arc" rolls and upgrades after an Annual, or doesn't that count?
And finally, when I play a training match after the Annual, what size of team do I use?

New Warriors: Team Tracking

IXP:
Night Thrasher: 5/4 = 1 IXP
Marvel Boy: 8/4 = 2 IXP
Dagger: 8/4 = 2 IXP
Spider-Man: 9/4 = 2 IXP
Nova: 10/4 = 3 IXP

TAP:
40 + (250/4) + ((50/5) x2) = 123 TAP

TXP:
123/4 = 31 TXP

Does that look correct to you?

Oh, and if I can upgrade after the annual, would I be right in assuming that since the Tandy Bowen LE is only 55 points, I can upgrade my R Dagger to LE Tandy Bowen for her two IXP and 2 of my TXP?

New Warriors Team Tracking, total stats INCLUDING training:

IXP:
Night Thrasher: 3 IXP
Nova: 5 IXP
Marvel Boy: 3 IXP
Dagger: 2 IXP
Cloak: -
Spider-Man: 5 IXP
Black Cat: -

TXP:
49

Nice looking team Melk. Reminds me of my old Marvel Knights team, but with better mobility (I didn't have any fliers or TK, but buttloads of stealth).

I never managed to get Black Cat upgraded to a useful version. Good luck with that.

As for Spidey, I cannot believe you chose to start him over! It was hard work getting him to his good versions, and I was stuck using what felt like an under-powered Peter Parker for a long time.

Cloak and Dagger and absolutely awesome though, in any version. Good pick up.

So far I haven't had much luck with Felicia either...

As for Peter, he's only on my team for one reason, to advance his story to a point where he can be cloned so the Scarlet Spider can make his appearance in the RPSC and I can add him to my ranks. For that purpose, I don't mind using a cheap, teen-age Spider-Man for a while

Hey just going through this for the team tracking thread. Can you try to summarise a little more clearly? Try looking at one of Lightshear's summaries for a template.

Oh and don't forget your IAP and TAP! You just rounded them down!

R Night Trasher 37 pts. 1-IXP, 1-IAP
R Nova 56 pts. 3-IXP, 0-IAP
R Marvel Boy 53 pts. 2-IXP, 0-IAP
R Cloak 47 pts. 0-IXP, 0-IAP
LE Dagger (Tandy Bowen) 55 pts. 0-IXP, 1-IAP
R Spider-Man (Ultimates) 31 pts. 2-IXP, 1-IAP
R Black Cat 16 pts. 0-IXP, 0-IAP

Team 30-TXP, 3-IAP

Not sure about the training how that fits in. I will get back on that.

Sorry about that, I was under the impression that I was supposed to round them up or down to the nearest number and not keep the leftover points around. If that's not the case then I'll look over it again and add the remaining points posthaste
