Thor Roll) 4,5=9, mine.
Leadership) 6, got it

1-3) GR attacks Loreli, Abbey attacks Loreli, Fantomex attacks Loreli. If any of the three attacks hit, she's out. 9v12, 7v12, 9v12. Rolls are: 1,1=2, critical miss for GR... 2,1=3, miss for Abbey... 2,6=8, hit for Fantomex. Loreli is down, game over.

... I saw those first two rolls and damn near had a heart attack before I saw the third...

Well, you knew sooner or later that your rolls would have to go cold, 2 out of 3 isn't bad.

Great game. Although I knew from the start that I'd have a difficult time, the map choice was in your favor (a lot of hindering and half the map was an office complex, so my ranged pieces had a lot going against them).

I can't wait to start a new game.

To be fair, I had alot of range on my team, too... and of my close-combat pieces, you killed one of them with the other one of them.

In retrospect, Endurance on Rock is only useful in the short-term since I can't keep pushing him, and Punisher is fragile if he gets next to someone... but the team card simply makes this team. Maybe put Swingline on Abbey instead of Punisher to keep her mobile for outwitting... hrm. We'll see.

Good game, you did really well given the dice were against you... one more turn with Thor in there and it could've been a much different story.

Still, you had Outwit and Stealth in there, so my range wasn't that helpful because I couldn't target anyone without getting Outwitted. I'd recommend keeping Punisher on the range, Stealth, RCE and Willpower can be deadly at range. When you moved GR and carried Punisher, I would have placed him one click further away from Ulik and Loki. Punisher would have still be able to shoot at Loki, and Ulik would have trouble hitting GR. At the same time Punisher would have still been covered by hindering terrain so Loki wouldn't have been able to shoot him.

Yeah; in hindsight, not the best move. Should've been Shang I moved up there instead of Punisher. Oh, well. I used that Ghost Rider mainly because I own one and never got a chance to use it in a game; it definately impressed me. Now I'll always debate with myself on if I want to use that one or the most expensive, grounded transporter version.
