The Durlan figher changed tactics, firing tasers at the Man of Steel, but the new weapon system was untested, and failed to function!

"I'd better fall back for now," Yao Fei thought. "We'll regroup at Headquarters."

11B) Great Ten

1) IMID goes for the gold and tries to incap Superman! 7 vs 17. Roll of 3 is a miss!

The Man of Steel unleashed another blast of vision, and this time, the Immortal Man in Darkness was not so lucky. The living fighter jet's airframe barely held together, and he was forced to retreat from the battle.

Checkmate Turn 12

1. Superman pushes to use HSS to attack IMiD. 11AV v. 15DV. Roll=1,3. Barely hits for 5 damage, less 1 for Toughness, for 4 total. IMiD is KO'd. Superman uses HSS to continue moving, first flying to pick up the LO at L-12 and then flying to K-17. Superman gets 1 SA and 1 KO and takes 1 click.

Obviously, I have to clear for Turn 13, so go ahead and take 2 turns.

Yao Fei tried one last ditch effort, a brain rattling whistle. But Superman merely plugged his ears to dampen his super-hearing and felt the effects as only a gentle buffeting.

1) APP Psy-Blasts Superman. 8 vs 16. Roll of (2,3) 5 misses! No push due to WP.

At Max's command, Superman again fired blasts of heat vision, narrowly missing the Celestial Archer and the Accomplished Perfect Physician.

"Damn you, Clark!" screamed Max in frustration. "I will break your will!"

Hey, Da-Craig-O. I think this beats Uniquist's rule of 'missing 7's or under 3 times' rule . I'm pretty sure this is Supes' 3rd three or four this game

Both of us have been rolling pretty miserably for this game.

Supes' dice are the only thing keeping me going this game. So far, he's rolled a 6, a 7, and everything else has been a 3 or a 4.

"I've seen the footage of Superman! Something's wrong here. He's a lot quicker than this. Let's press our advantage, see if we can't run him off."

"You don't have to ask me twice!" Celestial Archer fired a charged arrow at Superman, and the attack was enough to make the Man of Steel pause for a moment and realize that it had actually hurt.

14B) Great Ten

1) APP L/Cs to L14

2) Celestial Archer RCE on Supes! 10 vs 16. Roll of (6,1) 7 hits, and Supes' Impervious roll is a 1. 2 clicks to Supes, an SA to the Celestial Archer.

Good game. Sorry about the injury.

**********

Superman strafed the overpass with blasts of heat vision. The civilians had abandoned their vehicles when the battle erupted, but it was not the case that the cars' fuel tanks were empty. It was only a matter of time before the Man of Steel's heat vision ignited one tank.

The explosion was enormous, creating a cloud of fire and smoke. The shock wave knocked both the Celestial Archer and the Accomplished Perfect Physician off their feet. The latter hit the pavement hard, losing consciousness.

The Celestial Archer rose slowly to his feet. He longed to strike back, but his teammate required immediate medical attention. There was no choice, really. He pulled the Physician to safety, watching the Man of Steel fly away, in response to Max Lord's orders.

**********

Checkmate Turn 15

1. Superman pushes to attack Celestial Archer and APP. 9AV v. 16DV/16DV+1 (hindering). Roll=6,6. :speechles (Sorry about the injury) Hits both. APP is hit for 1 damage, increased to 2 by the crit hit, and is KO'd. Celestial Archer is hit for 3 damage, increased to 4 by the crit hit. He's also knocked back to P-1, where he takes another click for hitting the edge of the map. Supes gets 1 SA and 1 KO and takes 1 click.

The knockback should put Celestial Archer out of range of Superman, and I don't think he has RS or any other power that would let him get into range to make an attack, so unless I'm missing something, that's game.

Again, I'm sorry about the injury. I'm not sure how it works when there's a crit hit and 2 targets, but I believe that only one of the targets is actually injured; I think a random roll by one of the Commissioners determines which one is injured.

No biggie on the injury! I've been plotting for next round already and won't need both. I'll shoot TVK a message about randomizing who's hurt, and roll with it. Besides, Supes had a good roll coming.

Cause I'm way super on top of things, App is the injured party, roll is in you inbox.

Hooray! (As macabre as that is...) If somebody's gotta be hurt, I'm glad it's the guy who's a minimum 61 point investment for a 1 damage output. Leaves my firepower options looking much better in the next round.

Yeah, I figured you felt that way
