"I hate these stupid missions." thought Sea-King. "Right now I could be...no...should be on the throne of Atlantis, feasting and enjoying the games." He could almost see the faces of the loyal subject who had been selected to receive the great honor of dying for their king's entertainment.
"Contact." called out Seer, her voice like an icy stiletto piercing Sea-King's brain. "Four bio-signatures twenty two meters due north."
"I hate her most of all." thought the Tyrant of Atlantis as he was lifted off the ground.
Without a word, the winged figures grabbed their companions and shot into the air, flying swiftly northward.

Seer was tracking the movements of the bio-signatures she had detected, but her mind was on her companions.
"Fools!" she thought. "Ridiculous, arrogant fools! So smug, so secure in their so-called power. They don't know what true power is. The power of information!"
For a moment, her thoughts turned inward. She once again tried to reach back, to find some memory from the time before the accident that had robbed her of the use of her legs.
"Nothing." she thought bitterly. "I can access any information system in the world, but my own memories are denied me.
And for an instant, unnoticed by her teammates, her cold, emotionless facade cracked. She felt the sting of a tear forming in the corner of her eye.
The instant passed and she was Seer once more. And she vowed to herself to never feel helpless again.

"Shayera, Sea-King, get over to the next island. I need eyes on the two who disappeared into the rubble." ordered King Condor.

As Queen Condor picked up Sea-King and shot across the water, she thought: "So strong, so commanding! I chose well when I seduced King Condor. Never again will I be enslaved, forced to be a "companion". Or prostitute, as they are know in less polite circles. The Emperor of Thanagar had no compassion for orphans, especially female orphans. But that will change when our exile ends. When we return to Thanagar, the Emperor will fall, King Condor will rule, and I shall be Queen. None will ever dare mock me again."

"Calculator is trying to hack our communications." said Seer matter-of-factly.
"Can you keep him out?" asked King Condor.
"Of course. We may experience some static, but I can rewrite encryptions faster than he can break them."

"This guy moves faster than a sailfish!" exclaimed Sea-King as Deathstroke narrowly dodged his punch.
"It's Deathstroke!" cried Queen Condor into her headset microphone. "We're falling back."
Carrying Sea-King once more, she rocketed behind a collapsed building on yet another island.

King Condor smiled grimly. "This is what I was born to do." he thought. "To lead my soldiers into battle and crush our enemies underfoot, dispensing death at my whim. I was the greatest general Thanagar had ever know, until that fool of an emperor let his fear and jealousy overcome him. He exiled me to this backward planet, thinking I'd die at the hands of these barbarians. He'll soon learn his folly. After I've helped the Crime Syndicate subdue this planet, I will lead them to Thanagar, and the emperor will die painfully. There will be many casualties, but a great general knows that all his troops are expendable. Even you, dear Shayera."

"I-I don't know," stammered Queen Condor. "He was hiding behind Deathstroke and I couldn't get a look at him."
"That is...disappointing," said King Condor sternly. After a short pause, he added, "Stand down and be ready to move. On my orders only."

Turn 6B was rewritten because of a mistake.

Nice shot!

If I understand ENERGY EXPLOSION correctly, Red Hood would also be subject to the attack, and would take damage and knock back as well.

Also, if I understand knock back correctly, all three characters would be knocked back diagonally, so King Condor would be knocked back to D11, Seer to C11, and Red Hood to D12.

Let me know what you think. If I'm right, and you want to change your turn, feel free. I await a ruling.

Crap... I've been playing EE wrong for about 9 years now......... :/ wow.. If I had realized that I would have just done the regular attack targeting Condor instead. But yes, knock back will be in a diagnal I looked at the map wrong on my phone, but Red Hood and Condor will ignore the knockback due to having Charge on the click in which they took damage. I didn't outwit charge until afterward.

So basically, I posted all of this early this morning while I was still half asleep; from my phone where I couldn't read stuff well or see the map well, and because of it I basically screwed everything up lol If you concur I would like to make the following changes to my turn.

1.) Red Hood still charges and misses his attack.
2.) Deathstroke, instead of the EE, makes a standard ranged attack onto condor hits with the 8 for two damage, but doesn't knockback due to Condor having Charge.
3.) Deathstroke will then outwit Condor's charge at the end of the turn, and everyone is still in their same squares they started in (except for Red Hood who charged to attack.)

Is this acceptable, or would you like to continue along with the EE? In that case this would happen:

1.) Red Hood charges and misses Oracle.
2.) EE from Deathstroke hits everyone, but only knocks back Oracle due to the other two having charge.
3.) Deathstroke then outwits Condor's charge, and Oracle is in C11.

It's up to you since I messed everything up lol

Here's my revised turn and re-written story to reflect it Sorry about all this, it's been a long day. A five hour bus ride at 7am to two baseball games, and then another 5 hour bus ride home has taken its toll on my cognitive functions lol

Story:
"Guys, seriously, chill. I've got this, you can go back to squatting in your bush or something old man."
"Old man?! I've been fighting and killing these fools since you were in diapers!"
"Yeah, exactly... Oh, and if you could throw a shot or two over my shoulder to cover this move that'd be cool, thanks." and with that Jason rolled from cover and past the reaching arms of King Condor toward... Barbara?
"What the Hell, Barb?! You were dead! I saw you get shot in the back!" But she just smirked back at him in response. He didn't have time to think about it now, he rushed forward with a reverse kick aimed at the chair's nearest wheel, but his kick connected with a force field a foot short. The jarring impact sent him off balance for a second and he fell back.
"Jason, what did you say? Who is Barb?"
"Barbara Gordon, the Owlgirl Jokester shot and paralyzed by accident. Apparently she's here with the Syndicate," Lex said into his comm. "Wilson, he's going to need some cover."
"Got it. I don't know why I help the kid... but he's got spirit. I'll give him that atleast." Wilson pulled out a mini grenade launcher from a pouch at his waist and attached it to his gun. Taking aim at King Condor he fired.
Jason felt a heat wave roll over him as the grenade exploded directly into King Condor's chest. When the smoke and fire cleared Jason could see King condor still standing; his wings had been scorched a bit, and his avian helmet was a bit blackened, but if looks could kill the one aimed at Jason right then would have done it. He crouched into a more appropriate battle stance and squared up to the Avian Tyrant.
"Hey Wilson, the kid kind of reminds me of you at that age." Lex spoke into a private channel between himself and the Mercenary. All he got in response was a grunt and "Hmph.." He chuckled to himself at the gruff Merc. He knew the older man had a soft spot for his new protege', even though he would never admit it himself.
"Jason, I've traced the Seer's signal. It is coming from around your location. I'm guessing that it is this Barbara, I need you to take her out so that I can scramble their comms and shut down any tech they have here."
"I'll do what I can, I've got Big Bird in my way at the moment though."
Wilson popped in, "Then pluck the bird, and take out the girl. We need to get out of here before reinforcements arrive."
