"Professor, let us help you," the Stephord Cuckoos say telepathically, "Together our minds can do much. Including help you heal." The girls stimulate Charles' brain so that he feels as if his injuries are healing.

Meanwhile the Collector phases a top the overpass and accesses his foes. "How grand you all are...why to add you to my collection would be a dream."

"Buddy, all you'll be collecting is your own bones off the floor once I'm done with you," Bane says.

"Pity but to be expected," the Collector says unleashing a beam that nearly incapacitates many of his foes.

"He's crazy up there," Nova says, "He'll be slaughtered."

"Maybe," the Son of Satan replies, "But he's buying us time, let's make the most of it."

What's the point of a character with a 19DV when you keep rolling 10s to hit? Anyhow, first Bizarro has PC. Makes Collector's 10 a 6. Collector's got the Reality Gem. Gets 7. That'll hit Bane, but no one else, so he takes all 3.

And the Cuckoos. Swell. I knew not finishing off Xavier would come back to bite me.

Lastly, sticking the double base on the Collector for you.

Loki's back and the Pit roll is 5. Suh-weet. He moves to G15 for now.

I get a 9, My Team's Better. Morg's Power Cosmic seems the east choice.

Genis-Vell is my freebie. He'll RS to I11 and shoot at the Collector. AV11 on DV18. Shape Change first. It's a 6. The rest is a wash.

Otherwise, I clear.

"You Elders think you're so hot," Genis-Vell said, strafing the Collector with his energy blasts.

"Yes, we do," the Collector laughed, as the Kree youth's blasts had no effect. "We are 'so hot' to use your vernacular."

I roll 5, amalgym again. No reason not to use Mystics and X-Men.

Mindee exchanges a click w/Prof. Gets 6, no damage.

Nova charges to L8. Needs 7, rolls 12.Bizarro makes it 12 again. Wow. With Nova's sp he gets + 1 to damage. 3 to Morg.

Nothing else I can do in the main game.

Once again, Nightcrawler wil run up to Grundy and bash. Naturally instead of helping to finish this endless battle with a hit, he gets a 2. 1 to Kurt and he runs away.

"Alright, once more with feeling," Nightcrawler says bamphing in front of Solomon Grundy. Grundy pulls out his fist and knocks him to the ground.

Nightcrawler rubs his jaw, "I get it. No one likes a repeat."

So tempting when I have time for only one game to go straight to a World's Mightiest, but this one's been waiting the longest.

And I for the second time in a row, get My Team's Better.

Mr. Immortal pops back in. Gets an Auto-Regen roll. A 4, so he heals 2. Being still on Regen he can take his action to roll again. Gets 3, he's up 1 more.

Not too keen on attacking with everyone on Mystics, but event gives me a freebie. Let's use Genis again, but try something different.

Solovar TKs him first, to M10.

He will now RS to Q8 and Pulse Wave. Token from Solovar makes his AV 12. And he rolls a 2. Oh Genis.

Genis-Vell appeared in the midst of the enemy and exploded.

"Well, that was a little odd," Daimon said.

"Yes, it is lucky no one was hurt," Red Tornado said.

"Except him," Esme pointed out.

And if I have to pick only one Power Cosmic guy to keep the TA it will be Stardust.

My event is 7, duel. Been awhile since I've had that one, seems fresh. I'll snag Loki into a duel with Collector. I don't expect Collector to get lucky again but I hope he can take Loki off of those pesky early clicks. At least he'll keep him bust for a turn or two.

Reddy tks Daimon to P6.

Daimon vs. Bane. He outwits his toughness. Needs 6, rolls 10. 2 to him.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Nightcrawler passes in his duel.

In Loki vs. Collector I roll 4 for distance, or 2. Needs 9, rolls 11. And here goes the dueling pcers: Loki makes it 5, Collector rerolls 4.

"Tempted as I am to leave you to your fates, Collector, am I here," Daimon Hellstrom says transporting to the rooftop and setting Bane ablaze with hellfire. "Collector?".

"Loki, you are among the most unique of specimens. You so intrigue me," the Collector says.

"Aye? How intriqued wilt thou be once I have served your made thee eat thine own tongue?".

I get a 2 for Redux. I'll give Stardust "the treatment".

RS for her to P9, double targets Phoebe and Esme with EE. AV10 on dv15 and 15+1. Rolls 3. I know Bizarro has PC, but that doesn't mean I have to always miss my first attack so he can use it. Makes it 8. Phoebs make it 9. Esme makes it 10. Salaak makes it 6. Means I miss him at least. Xavier's SS is 4. Let's make it 2 to Esme and 1 to Phoebe. And 2 each to Xavier, Mindee.

Morg Charges to O5, attacks Daimon. AV10 on DV16. Gets 10. 2 to him after Toughness, 1 to Morg.

Solovar makes Bane's AV11 with 2 tokens.

Bane Flurries on Nova, AV11 on dv18. Gets 7 for 1 after Toughness. Second attack is 5, which hits, but he can no longer get through Invulnerable.

Bizarro on Nova, AV11 on DV17. Gets 3.

Solovar leaps down to F5

http://www.ianparmenter.com/hcutils2...28y-91&y2=x7y9

In Duel, Loki on Collector. Shape Change is 1. AV11 on DV18. Gets 6. Uses his PC, 6 again.

"Psychics, psychics everywhere," Stadust chanted, "but you cannot read my mind." The Herald strafed Xavier and the Cuckoos with blasts of Power Cosmic, sending them scattering.

"And you can die too," Morg said, attacking Daimon, who indeed barely survived the swing of his axe.

"Do not worry, my friend. We have not forgotten you," Bane told Nova and he and Bizarro double-teamed the hero.

Wow, now that was a good turn.

My turn to roll My Team's Better.

The girls sacrifice themselves to heal Charles. They roll 3, 6 and 2 for the X-ta.

In comes Shuma-Gorath for my freebie. Salaak tks him to P7. Shuma on Stardust. Needs 7, rolls 8. Rerolls for Bizarro: 4. Rerolls for himself and gets 9. SS is 3, so 5 to Stardust. Also has flurry: needs 5, rolls 3. Oh well, can't complain.

Daimon pushes against Morg. A 5 will ko him, gets 7. Both are out.

Barry Allen with swingline is in for Daimon. He'll hss to J12 attacking Bizarro. Needs 6, rolls 10. Nice....Bizarro's out and Barry ends in O5 blocking d.r. of Morg.

Nova charges to G5, attacking Solovar. Needs 7, rolls 10. SS is 6.

Xavier needs 7 to mc Stardust. Needs 7, rolls 4. Mindee makes that 8. Stardust hss to H8 attacking Solovar. Needs 7 + 1, rolls 7.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nightcrawler will do the hit and run on Grundy. Needs 5, rolls 8. 1 to Grundy.

Collector needs 9 to hit Loki, rolls 7. Rerolls 4.

At super-speed the Flash proves his worth by hitting several targets.

"Fast much?" Nova jokes.

"Problem with that?" Flash asks.

"I'm used to being the fastest, that's all."

Talk about having good turns. Granted Morg and Bizarro were ripe for KOing, but 5 to Stardust too?

I roll a 4 for Shrinkage. No one's affected and the map snaps back to full size.

I have Dr. Doom and Kang in my list. Bring them in now, and Pit them, to make a duo attack on Nova. AV12 on DV17. Gets 6 for 3 to him after Invulnerable. Second attack on DV16. Gets 8. 3 more to him after Toughness and a KO.

Harvey Dent from DKR next, with Book of Destiny. Moves to G5, blocks Nova's replacement.

Stardust takes tokens from Solovar to up its AV and movement each by 1. HSS to P12, targets Mindee, AV11 on DV15 +1. Gets 7. Mindee makes it 6. Salaak makes it 7. Stardust to O13 to finish.
