Now I see why you were so eager for a duel. And yes, if the Prof is off the map, his Outwit or any other powers go with him.

Archangel doesn't want to tango with Nova. Can he break? Gets 4. RS to H13, has a go at the Hulk, AV11 on DV19. Gets 4. Well that's no help.

Jamie to Incap the Hulk? AV10 on DV19. Gets 11. Go figure. Token to the Hulk. No damage, but it slows him down. Would have preferred it with Warren, but I'll take what I can get.

Bishop break? A 6. Moves to K9

Iceman Leaps to H13, taking Madrox to I12. He'll use his SP to leave a square of hindering in I12 and I13

Morph Perplexes his DV to 17

Duel. - first it's fine to place an object (light? heavy? Choice?), initiator's choice of where. Doesn't have to be between, but should be equidistant from both contenders. The Prof's at quite a disadvantage here. His Super Senses will make all the difference. Do I push him, or let you decide whether to push Cap or not? I guess I push. First I Outwit Cap's Toughness. AV10 on DV18. Gets 10. Thank you, Charles. 2 to Cap. The Prof gets Perplex. He'll up his DV to 17

"We've got to slow the Hulk down," Madrox said, swarming him with multiples of himself.

"Uh, Jamie, what happens if the Hulk kills or maims some of those dupes."

"I feel like crap in the morning," Jamie admitted.
------------------------
"Your shield will not help you against a purely mental attack," Charles said, stunning Captain America with his psychic power.

"Touche, Charles. But it will take more than a headache to stop me."

"I can do far more to you," Xavier said.

"You can, yes," Captain America admitted. "But I know you, and I'm betting you won't."

Justice tks Beast to H8. Beast outwits Kitty's ss and attacks. Needs 8, rolls 12. Sweet mercy! 4 to Kitty and kb to C8. Justice's endurance roll is 6.

Widow on Lockheed. Needs 8 for the ko, gets 7. And that triggers another duel. Amadeus could reroll but I'd rather the duel. She'll take on Archangel in a moment.

Shulky vs Madrox C. Kos him easily with a 5, what she needed.

Hulk to break? 3. He attacks Jamie. Needs 6, rolls 8. 4 to Jamie and no one eligible for him to mm to.

Should we have a limit to duels going on at once? Say 4? Just asking aloud.

I won't push Cap so no movement is his battle against Xavier.

In the Archangel/Widow battle I roll a 6, so Natasha starts in the center at E3 and Warren is four squares away at G6. I placed an LO in E5, equidistant to them both.

She attacks Warren by rs to E5. Needs 9, (am I putting myself in tough spots with characters you have ss and esd), rolls 8. Close but not enough. Am wondering if I'm picking the wrong battles but this seemed like a good match.

http://www.ianparmenter.com/hcutils2...f1p2=x485y-289

She-Hulk smacks one of the Madrox off the roof. "That's one less annoyance but they seem to spread like rabbits. Hey....anyone see where the Widow went?"

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

"What kind of trick is this, Natasha?" Archangel asks, "I know you're hiding here."

She unleashes a widow's bite but his metallic wings deflect them easily. "I'm not the kid you knew in the Champions, Widow."

"We'll see about that," she replies, still hiding in the dark.

Can I add the Shulky ups her dv by 1.

Also Black Widow is stealthed.

You forgot to reference Cap/Xavier's map last turn, which may not be needed anyway but here it is....

I admit that I am more of a collector than an actual player but really enjoy following along some of the 'Play By Post' battles from time to time. I am curious, however, about the following:

I thought that when rolling to break away on a result of 3 or less your character fails to break away and can’t move or attack. You must then resolve the action immediately, including assigning that character (Hulk) any action tokens for that action. I am sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but I am really trying to learn the game and want to ensure that I fully understand this portion of the rules. Thanks!

You're absolutely right on this, overseeker. That's the actual ruling for break away. However we have a house rule that allows an attack if the break away fails. Make sense?

Yes. Thanks for the clarification!

Hulk couldn't have moved last turn. Jamie Incapped him, so he'd need to clear. He could only have attacked Madrox A anyway. Jamie's on the next level of elevated.

And since there are 4 Fight Maps, 4 duels is probably good.

Kitty back to H10

Lockheed on Beast. AV9 +1 on DV17 +2. Gets 8. Almost good enough.

Iceman pushes to E15, KOing himself.

I guess I need a Juggernaut to deal with the Hulk. Classic match-up there. Juggernaut picks up the LO from D15 and Charges to I14 to try to hit HUlk, AV11 on DV19. Gets 9. Booyah. Hulk still gets an Impervious roll though. And of course it's a 5. Maaan, this game is just going to be full of suckage. Can't hit the Hulk, you steal all my good characters into Duels. It's not starting well for me at least. Oh well, plenty of time yet to turn this around.

Morph Perplexes his Damage to 3. Charges to G6, attacks Cho. AV9 on DV15. Gets 9. Cho makes it 7. Aaaand there's another 7. But we've already got two duels going on, and I'm not sure who'd be a decent matchup for Morph. Beast or Nova or Justice.If I could take the Hulk, just to get him off the map for a while, I would, but the point differential is too great. You know what, I'll pass on the dueal and do the 3 to Amadeus.

So, Prof vs Cap, Prof has to clear.

"Well if it ain't my old sparring partner, the Hulk. This is gonna be fun." The Juggernaut grabbed a boulder and brought it down on the Hulk's head with enough force to pulverize it. The Hulk was in much better shape.

"Hulk will smach you, Juggernaut! Hulk will smash you all!"

"Ah, I'm just getting warmed up," the Juggernaut said.

"I don't think I can hurt the Hulk, but with Captain America and the Black Widow gone, I'm betting your the brains of this operation," Morph told Amadeus, coming through the trees to hit him.

"Even with them around, I'm still the brains," Cho said. "Though I'll concede their experience."

Don't forget to add Juggernaut to your point totals.

As for Hulk, he had no tokens last turn so Jamie couldn't incap him, just gave him a token. So last turn when Hulk attacked Jamie (who is the figure in I12 on elevated terrain but the sort of stairway to that terrain), it was valid. This turn Hulk has to clear. And believe me, I'd rather him be able to fight this round!

Beast has to roll for traitor tokens. 9. He passes but if he uses outwit he takes a token which would be a push. Grrrrr.

Nova charges to J14 attacking Juggs. Needs 6, rolls 10. Imperv is 6, of course.

Shulky ups Hulk's dv to 20.

In Cap vs. Prof X Cap will attack the Prof. Needs 6, probably 7 since you'd up his dv no doubt, rolls 4. Yeesh, what a disaster this one is for me.

In Widow vs Angel the Widow has to pass. Keep in mind the Widow is stealthed, Angel has to get in close to get to her.

Overall, despite some advantages that was one crappy turn.

"Gotcha Juggernaut," Nova says jumping him as he grabs his helmet. Juggernaut easily slams him into the wall.

Juggernaut laughs, "....Kids."

Madroxi corrected, I think.

BIshop on She-Hulk, AV9 on DV17. Gets 6.

Jamie tries to Regenerate. ROlls 6. Nice. heals back up to full.

Juggernaut. Do I push? I need a 9. That's a tough roll and no way to make that easier. If I don't Hulk will attack him and then I have to take a chance with my Impervious roll. No. I'm not feeling it. I'll pass and hope for the best.

"You can't hide from me, Natasha," the Angel said. "I saw you."

"Then come and get me, Warren," she said.
