Just when I'm prepared to concede, you issue me a challenge. Well, my best shot at that is Ambush Bug. I could almost go for Superman himself, but Kara prevents me. Batman RS to M5, targets the Bug, AV10 on DV15. Rolls 2. Hourman makes it 7. (Hour of Power roll is a 4) Bug (finally) misses his SS roll with a 1. 3 to him.

Batman now can Outwit his SS.

Hourman on the Bug, AV7 on DV12. Gets 7. There you go. Take your replacement.

"Forget the others. Superman's the key!" Batman ordered. "Bring him down and the rest don't matter." He loaded a piece of kryptonite into a Batarang and threw it at the Man of Steel.

"Hey!" Ambush Bug said popping into the way. "Nobody messes with my man Supes! And who says I don't..." he was interrupted by the batarang clocking him on the head.

Superman caught the fainting Ambush Bug. "Incredible. He...he saved me."

"S...Super...man," Ambush Bug gasped.

"What is it, friend?" Superman asked.

"Tell my ma,,,"

"Yes...?"

"Tell her...She puts too much pepper in her meatloaf." And then he went limp.

Ambush Bug was pretty close to my mvp here.

Ok, you're close to quitting, let's see if I can make that happen and draft a throwaway I guess.

Superman vs. Hourman. Needs 7, gets 7. Hourman uses Hour of Power and rolls 3. Dr. Fate adds his two cents: 2. Seriously?

Supergirl on Hourman. Needs 6, rolls 7. He's out.

Donna Troy in next. Force field. She replaces Bug. She charges to L5 facing Batman. Needs 7, gets 4.

Fate phases to L5, outwits Batman's special outwit power with BOD.

Up to you if you want to go on.

"Sorry Batman, it's over," Donna Troy says charging him.

He blocks her. "Not even close, Donna, but then that wasn't your best. Obviously you're distracting me. Why?" He looks around. "Hourman! Look out!".

"Too late," says Superman as his cousin takes Hourman out, "Care to surrender, old friend?".

Well I can't give up now. Superman's so close...

Firehawk on Supes, AV7 on DV17. Gets 9. Ooo, so close!

Cyborg on Rex. Needs 7 + 1, gets 4. Dr. Fate makes it 9. He's out.

Adam to N14 targeting Firehawk. Needs 6, rolls 8. He's out.

That leaves Batman. He could told off for a few turns until Steel de-pits or give in.

"Let me make it easier for you, Bruce," Superman says nodding to his allies.

Cyborg hits Metamorpho with an electrical charge. "Sorry Rex."

"That's ok, I can take it," he replies. Then slumps over.

"Sure ya can," Vic adds.

Mystic bands bind Firehawk who reverts to human form. "Hey, no fair!" she says.

"Yes," Fate says, "It isn't fair to send an inexperienced girl-child to war."

"I'm liking these odds," Bulleteer says noting that only Batman remains.

"So Bruce," Superman says, "Back to this surrenduring idea."

Maybe I'm crazy, but let's continue. Bruce to break, Gets 5. RS to N7, attacks Superman, AV10 on DV17, gets 10. Fate (whom you have in the same spot as Donna, by the way) makes it a 6.

Steel (FFSM-Lazarus Pit) J13 (2-in Pit)
Batman (FFBM) @ N7 (1) (Stealth)

"You should know better than that, Clark. I don't surrender," Batman said.

"For the sake of the friendship we shared, I had to extend that olive branch," Superman said.

Not crazy...it's totally in character NOT to surrender as Batman.

Superman ups his av to 11 and attacks Bats. Needs 6, rolls 7. 2 to him after toughness.

Supergirl on Bats. Needs 5, rolls 4. Fate can't help.

John pulls out Bulleteer and sends her to N8.

Bulleteer on Bats. Needs 7, rolls 4. Fate helps and makes it 3.

Donna charges to M6 attacking Bruce. Needs 6, gets 8. 3 more to him.

Cyborg on Bats (unfortunately for you I have the Superman anti-stealth ta and Cyborg's anti-stealth trait on my side) needs 5 to ko him, gets 6.

Steel emerges from the pit next turn....he can always continue.

Since Steel doesn't emerge until the beginning of my turn, as soon as Batman's down, I have no figures and game ends. Probably would be conceding it anyway at this point. I might have left it for the Lazarus Pit roll to decide. If he failed it I would definitely have thrown in the towel.

How did we get from this being a game where I was "dominating" to one where I was barely able to get your last replacement in?

I wondered the same about the Civil War game....
