free) Scirocco's Ritual triggers, dealing 1 damage to Ghost which KO's him! 1 KO for Scirocco.
Without warning, a thunderous bolt of otherworldly lightning suddenly snakes down from what was, until moments ago, a clear sky striking the bushes Ghost was concealing himself in with ground-shaking force. As the dust clears, revealing a thoroughly unconscious Ghost, Scirocco allows himself a dry smirk "Indeed, no more touching"
1) Aeon regains phasing/teleport with Ghost KO'ed and takes full advantage of that, teleporting to M3/N4.
"C'mon... c'mon...c'mon! WORK you piece of junk!" Aeon hammers madly on his malfunctioning teleporter as Juggernaut strides closer and closer. "AH-HA! So long slowpoke!" Aeon cackles maniacally as he finally gets the temperamental equipment working again, vanishing in a flash of cerulean sparks!

1) "Wow... now THAT was stupid" Aeon remarks to no-one in particular, watching Shocker turn Mako's watery hiding place into an enormous whirlpool with a focused burst of compressed air. "Better get a good view for when the fish goes crazy!" Aeon giggles to himself as he overloads his teleporter again. Aeon uses Move and Attack, moving to G6/G7, attacking Shocker from behind. 10 atk. vs 17 def. Needs a 7. Roll is: (2,6) for an 8 and a hit! Shocker takes 1 after toughness. Aeon finishes his movement G5/G6. 1 SA for Aeon who takes 1 from the push.
There's a brief burst of chronal energy as Aeon vanishes from his safe perch atop the cliff, appearing behind the Shocker for just long enough to sucker-punch him in the back of his quilted head before vanishing again.... only to reappear 5 feet away as his teleporter overheats and gives out. "Oh come ON! AGAIN?"
2) Mako slashes at Crossbones, using blades. 9 atk. vs 17 def. Needs an 8. Roll is: (1,4) for a 5 and a miss! Aeon will fix that with some time-line meddling. Second roll is: (6,2) for an 8 and a hit! Blades roll is: 3... and I'm not going to be greedy so I'll keep that. Crossbones takes 2 after toughness. 1 SA for Mako and 1 AST for Aeon.
There are no words from Mako this time, just a primal, atavistic roar setting ancestral flight-reflexes dating back to the dawn of mankind screaming in everyone who hears it as he emerges from the whirlpool in a flurry of fangs and claws, the very picture of the primordial predator! Despite all of this, Brock Rumlow proves what stuff he's made of as he's more than ready to dodge the frenzied attack... or would have been, if he hadn't suddenly found himself caught in a pocket of slow time, courtesy of Dr. Aeon's infernal technology! As a result, Mako slams into Crossbones, overbearing him down to the soaked ground as he buries his serrated rows of teeth deep in his shoulder!
3) "Good, they show spirit and a will to fight. Let this end with honour" Scirocco moves to H11 for a good vantage point of the chaos unfurling beneath him.
4) An icy chill suddenly creeps up Shocker's spine as the Widow appears directly behind him in a silent flash of dead-light, close enough to whisper softly in his ear "You appear well insulated, mortal. Do you think your quaint quilt will keep the chill of the grave at bay?" Widow teleports to I8
Kalinda and Aeon will both PC any successful attacks they might see

Yikes, those were some awful rolls for you to get at a climactic time
Arachnos: Turn 11
1) "Very well, you shall have your fight!" Scirocco ducks under a brutal swing from Juggernaut that would have crushed him into paste and replies in kind with a point-blank blast of bio-arcane lightning! Scirocco incapacitates Juggernaut. 10 atk. vs 17 def. Needs a 7. Roll is: (2,1) for a 3 and a total miss! Aeon will try to make himself useful again and PC that. Second roll is: (5,2) for a 7 and exactly a hit! Juggernaut already has two tokens, so he'll take a click of penetrating damage instead. Mu Lightning Roll doesn't matter since it can't hurt Cain. 1 SA for Scirocco and no pushing damage thanks to Willpower. 1 AST for Aeon.
The blast of sorcerous lightning strikes home, thanks to some "timely" assistance on Aeon's part, enveloping the Juggernaut in a crackling cage of crimson lightning, sapping away at both his strength and his will. "Yield, brute. This is not a fight you can hope to win"
free) Kalinda moves to H12, using her TA
2) "Hm... some other time then" Widow smiles at the retreating Shocker, vanishing in her customary flash of dead-light, only to reappear next to Diabolique. Widow teleports to F16. She takes 1 from the push.
3) "Oh, I see" Diabolique cackles "Need a sisterly hand, do you?" Diabolique uses Covenant of the Furies to Support Widow. 10 atk. vs 17 def. Needs a 7. Roll is: (6,2) for an 8 and a hit! Widow heals a click and removes a token thanks to Invigorate. 1 SA to Diabolique.
free) Covenant of the Furies activates, letting Widow Charge to I12, attacking Juggernaut! 9 atk. vs 17 def. Needs an 8. Roll is: (4,2) for a 6 and a miss. Kalinda will try to PC that. Second roll is: (5,3) for an 8 and a hit! Juggernaut takes 1 due to Armour Piercing. 1 SA to Widow and 1 AST to Kalinda and Diabolique both.
Charged to the brim with the unholy energy of the Furies, Widow's ectoplasmic manifestation crackles and seethes with barely contained power. With a hideous scream of fury and rage she launches herself directly at the momentarily caged Juggernaut, clawing and scratching at his eyes while howling like a banshee, her incorporeal fingers passing straight through the armour of Cyttorak to scratch and rip at his soul!
Mako and Aeon both clear. Kalinda will *only* PC a critical hit by Brock

free) Widow poisons Juggernaut for a click and the KO thanks to Armour Piercing. 1 KO to Widow.
Suddenly pausing her hysterical onslaught, Widow seems to regain her usual, icy-calm demeanour as quickly as she lost it, instead leaning in to plant a single, ethereal kiss on Juggernaut's lips. "Goodnight, sweet prince" She whispers coldly, watching with a frigid smile as the Juggernaut topples over like a redwood, shaking the entire plateau as he falls!
1) "Ah! There we are, working again!" Aeon exclaims triumphantly as his teleporter powers up yet again. Aeon uses Move and Attack, moving to E9/F8, punching Shocker. 9 atk. vs 16 def. Needs a 7. Roll is: (2,1) for a 3 and a miss! He'll try to PC that himself. Second roll is: (1,3) for a 4 and still a miss! He'll end his movement in E15/E16.
2) "Pathetic, clearly you are in need of some... motivation!" Diabolique frowns as Aeon appears before her. Diabolique supports Aeon with Covenant of the Furies. 10 atk. vs 15 def. Needs a 5. Roll is: (5,3) for an 8 and a hit! Aeon heals 1. 1 SA and 1 from the push for Diabolique.
free) Filled once again with the murderous rage of the Furies, Aeon forgoes his teleporter entirely to charge directly at Crossbones! Aeon Charges to E12/E13, attacking Crossbones. 10 atk. vs 15 (+2 from CR) def. Needs a 7. Roll is: (1,2) for a 3 and a total miss. Kalinda takes pity on the not-so-good doctor and tries to help out. Second roll is: (2,3) for a 5 and another miss! (Heh, 3, 4, 3 and 5! Way to put in an effort there Doc!)
Clearly, a state of mindless, murderous rage doesn't do anything at all for Dr. Aeon's fighting skills as he's utterly unable to even get close to hitting Brock with any of his wild swings.
3) Paying absolutely no heed to Aeon's buffoonery, Mako shakes off the hard punch Brock landed on his nose and goes right back to the biting and clawing! Mako slashes at Crossbones with blades. 9 atk. vs 15 (+2 from CR) def. Needs an 8. Roll is: (4,3) for a 7 and just barely a miss!
4) "It would seem the only way to get something done, is for us to do it" Ghost Widow sighs as she puts a dainty hand on Scirocco's shoulder, teleporting them both into the fray. Widow teleports to G10, placing Scirocco in H9. She takes 1 from the push.
Kalinda clears and will only PC a critical hit. The same goes for Aeon should he be knocked back onto PC and see another attack during your turn.

Erm... Crossbones was at (4/6) at the start of your turn. Arachnos feedback from Mako + pushing damage would put him at (6/6) and still on the map... with Shocker trying to stand on his head?

free) Widow poisons Crossbones for 1 and the KO. 1 KO for Widow.
Again, Widow's dainty, porcelain-pale and ethereal hand reaches out, this time to brush Crossbone's cheek through his mask, with the same startling effect as before, the hardened mercenary collapsing on the ground like a pole-axed ox!
1) "I'm not going to let a guy dressed like a sofa make ME look like a fool!" Aeon fumes as he launches another teleportation attack against Shocker. Aeon uses Move and Attack to attack Shocker from E11/E12. 10 atk. vs 16 def. Needs a 6. Roll is: (3,1) for a 4 and a miss! Kalinda tries to help out the seemingly chronically inept doctor! Second roll is: (6,1) for a 7 and a hit! Shocker takes 1 after toughness. 1 SA to Aeon who'll end his move in F7/G8 where he takes 1 from the push. 1 AST to Kalinda
2) "Trust me, with that, you need no assistance" Scirocco remarks as he directs some of his magical energy towards cooling down Aeon's perpetually overheating gear. Scirocco Supports Aeon. 10 atk. vs 15 def. Needs a 5. Roll is: (4,4) for an 8 and a hit! Aeon heals 1. 1 SA to Scirocco.
Everyone else clears and Kalinda will only PC a critical hit by Shocker.

1) Shocker vs. Mako, 10 vs. 14, pushing
Roll is 3,3 = 6, Hits for 2 and the KO. Shocker takes 2 (push/mystics) and KOs himself to end the game.
Yeah, too much healing, free actions, free damage and phasing for me to deal with in this one. And it took me way too much effort just to polish off a few 50-pt figs.
Thanks for the game, Melk.

Thanks for a good and well-played game Glen, you put up a brave fight, I hope my team wasn't too "un-fun" to go up against?
I only really brought Scirocco to the fight because I figured I'd need him to deal with Slate, but since he sat this one out, he just sorta turned into a back-up healer instead. Because I clearly didn't bring enough of that as it was!

It was a bit much at times. The healing factor made it so that it almost wasn't worth attacking anyone if I wasn't going to be able to KO them in the same turn. Otherwise, I felt like I was fully in the game through turn 10. Or at least I like to convince myself of that.
