"I'm through with hanging back. He can't do that to us!" Superboy said, zapping Sunspot with his heat vision.

"Woo! Nice shot, Superboy!" Terra said.

"Terra," Nightwing asked. "How do we know you can trust you?"

"You can trust her. She's with me!" a young man said.

"And who are you?"

"Me?" Rickard said. "I'm the President of the United States!"

Bumblebee gave him the once over. "Well, we certainly could do worse."

I'm a bit surprised that so little happened to me. Sunspot going, no surprise, but nothing else.

I used just about everyone last turn so this will be a quiet turn.

Mastermind takes up pc.

Jubilee. She ports to I15 ee on Rickard. Needs 8, rolls 8 ( 2 4s). 2 to him. EE for Bumblee is 3, 2 to her.

Jubes has an sp:

THE SUNGLASSES AREN'T JUST FASHION, DUDE: Energy Explosion. When Jubilee uses it and hits, modify all hit characters' attack and defense -1 until your next turn.

Psylocke to mc the Prez. Needs 7, rolls 9.

He'll try to off Bumblebee. CCEs his av to 11. Needs 6, rolls 12. SS is ....6, of course.

Xavier, via Psylocke, outwits the Prez cce.

Storm boosts her dv.

Rickard and Bumblebee look to their feet. A small ball rolls towards them.

"What is this?" Rickard asks.

"You're not so bright, are ya?" Jubilee asks as her explosive goes off.

Bumblebee zips back to I5

Dove uses Titans on her. Rolls 2, takes 1 Damage herself.

Prez teleports H14, tries to attack Jubilee. AV10 on DV17. Gets 6.

Terra TK Superboy to L10

Superboy RS to M11, carrying Nightwing to M12, attacks Jubilee, AV10 on DV17 +2. Gets 5.

Nightwing Outwits Jubilee's ESD

Blue Beetle Sides to K9 on her, AV10 on just DV17 now. Gets 4. Dove makes it 5.

Kang teleports to M10 on Jubilee. Perplexes his Damage to 4, attacks Jubes. AV12 on DV17. Gets 7. First decent roll of the turn, and it's on an attack where one of those 5s would have been just fine.

"That was a dirty trick," Prez said, taking a wing at Jubilee.

"You're a politician. I thought it was all about dirty tricks for you guys," Jubilee said dodging.

"Not me! I'm different!" Prez defended himself.

"Sure you are," Jubilee said, ducking shots from Superboy and Blue Beetle.

"Sigh. Must I do everything?" Kang asked, hitting Jubilee at last.

Jubes breaks to port? 5. Goes to K11.

Xavier outwits Dove's pc via Jubes.

Jubes ee on Dove and Superboy, sadly. Rolls 11. Oh that's such a nice way for her to go out. Or maybe not. Her damage isn't enough to hurt Superboy or Kang. But despite not damaging Superboy, doesn't ee hit Nightwing for 2? Onto Dove who has ss: 3. 2 to Dove. Bumblebee rolls for ss: 6. She's safe.

MM picks pc.

Sooo....Dove takes 2. I may have also hit Nightwing for 2.

Storm on Prez. Needs 7, rolls 5. MM pcs it to 8. KOs him.

Mastermind tries to mc Kang. Needs 8, rolls 7. Darn the low dv on this version.

Via Psylocke, the Prof tries to mc him. Needs 7, rolls 11. Kang to break? 5.

He boosts his damage to 4 and attacks Superboy as he rs to N7. Needs 7, rolls 3.

I can't seem to get ahead in this game. I think a lot of that is due to Kang, frankly. I know he's stoppable but it seems a waste using any energy on him. And yet...

For fun, Dee Dee replaces Jubilee. I'm tired of giving death sentences to the X-family. Dee Dee is pretty cool. I'll mix it up a bit and if I pay a price, so be it.

1st moves to K11 needing 7 to ding Kang, rolls 11. A token/click to him.

Jean tks Colossus to K14.

He charges to L12, snagging the Ho from underneath Nightwing and slugging Superboy. Needs 6, rolls 7. 4 to him.

Magma barriers over the Prez.

Storm makes her dv + 1.

I'll give Peter the soul gem.

"That was just rude..." Jubilee says and in a Herculean effort chases her foes and lets off a series of explosives deadlier than ever before. The attack simply wears her out.

"Aw, poor sweetums," says Deidre to her sister.

"Gotta feel for the little lamb, dontcha?" says Delia. Then both look to Kang and together zap him with their zippy blasters.

"These girls are going to prove interesting," Colossus says as he slugs Superboy, "Not that you will be around long enough to learn that."

So Dove is down, Prez is down, and yes Nightwing takes 2. Superboy takes 4 and Kang takes an Unavoidable for the push. Phew.

So straight from one theme into another. GOTGM2 Rocket replaces Dove, and AI Drax in the starting area. Rocket gets the Guardians of the Galaxy ATA. His powers can't be countered.

To start Kang Perplexes Colossus' DV to 16

Nightwing CCE on him, AV9 on DV16 +1. Gets 11. Nice start. 2 to Colossus after Invincible.

Drax teleports to K12 uses the Power Gem for +1/+1 Attack/Damage. AV10 +1 on DV17 +1. Gets 8. Rats should have put it all to Damage. Oh well, still 2 more to him.

Rocket uses EE. Targets Delia? SC is 6. Deidre? 5. Damn

"For all your armor, you've got to have vulnerable spots, and I've been trained to find them," Nightwing said, striking repeatedly at Colossus. Sure enough some of the hits did seem to cause the X-Man some distress.

"A man of metal? I can bend metal. I can dent metal. Even crush it sometimes," Drax said, punching Colossus.

"What do you think, Dee-Dee? Should we help him?" Dee-Dee asked.

"I don't know, Dee-Dee. I think I'm more concerned with dodging the shots from that raccoon's big gun."

"Good call," her twin agreed. Both did an acrobatic flip in opposite directions, almost as if rehearsed.

"I am NOT a raccoon!" Rocket growled at them.

Well, I've used most everyone last turn so this should be a pretty quiet one.

Mastermind elects to choose pc. Shock, right?.

Colossus cces his av to 10. I'd love to target Drax but I want a surer thing. He goes for Superboy. Needs 6, rolls 8. Should've picked Drax. That kos him. Piotr heals 1.

Storm on Drax. Makes her damage 4. Needs 8, rolls 8. Dings him for 2.

Deidre on Drax, to incap. I really had hoped she could snag Kang again but it is what it is. Needs 8 -1 for being next to her sister, rolls 6. 9 for MM. Drax gets a token.

Peter to port? 3. That might be the end for him, sadly.

Psylocke will call on the Venom ID card. FFSFOSM guy. Jean free tks him to the porter.

Venom ports to M11 blocking Superboy. He charges to O7 attacking Kang. Needs 6, rolls 5. Well, that was a waste.

Xavier outwits Nightwing's indom via Colossus.

"I should address you, Drax, but your friend first, I think," Colossus says as he easily strikes down Superboy.

"Perfect," says Drax, "That's one less person competing with me to destroy you."

Kang Perplexes Colossus DV -1, cancelling the Soul Gem bonus.

Blue Beetle takes PB, shoots Colossus, AV10 on DV17. Gets 7. That's going to be the predicted KO.

GOTG01 Gamora teleports to L12 to block Colossus. Attacks Delia, SC is 3. AV10 on DV17, gets 7. MM Makes it 5.

Kang Break to Sidestep? Gets 2.

Bumblebee Sides to H7, tries for Delia, RCE, AV10 on DV17. SC is 2. 11 to hit. SS is 3. 3 to Delia.

"Superboy could be kind of full of himself sometimes, but he was still our buddy," Blue Beetle said, his scarab calculating what it needed to take down Colossus.

"Excuse me, Drax. Mind if I cut in?" Gamora said, lunging for one of the Dee Dees. Dee Dee dodged, but Gamora drew her attention so that Bumblebee could shoot her.

"You have knives. Of course you can cut in. That is what knives do," Drax said.

I'll miss Colossus, always liked the guy. But he's been around awhile.

Psylocke tries to mc Drax and Gamora. An 8 is needed, rolls 8. Cool.

Gamora on Drax. Makes cces her av to 11. Needs 7, rolls 2. Hmmmm....1 to Gamora.

MM to mc Gamora. Needs 8, rolls 6. PCs it to 8. Got her. Also gives him another thrall victim.

Gamora on Drax with cce. Needs 7, rolls 8. Imperv is 1. 2 to him. And now he's manageable.

Xavier tries to finish off Drax via Psylocke, outwitting his sc. Needs 7, rolls 8. He's out.

Deidre will empower Dee Dee's damage to 2. She also gets + 1 to her av since they're adjacent. Needs 8, rolls 4.

Amara does her barrier thing.

I still need a replacement for Colossus. I'll take the Toad, same version I always use.

Storm boosts her dv.

"X-Men, bleck," the Toad squirms, "My worst enemies and I have to stand beside them."

"As I have done this long time, Toad," Mastermind says, "Deal with it."

"Yeah, well I'm no happier allying with you, Wyngarde," he groans.

"Ah," says Professor X, "I thought things were getting too quiet."
