"Looks like the space lady's in trouble, but those two Rogues are being a pain in the neck too," Jakeem said, undecided.

"Why choose? I can tie 'em all up!" his Thunderbolt said.

"Then do it, my friend. Do it!" Thunderbolt did just that, looping bands of energy around all three villains.

"Well, I don't normally like to hit people when they're defenseless. Somehow that just seems wrong," Vigilante said. "But I doubt you two would be worried about that, so I'll make an exception in your case." A couple of trick shots from his six-shooters put bith of the Rogues down.

"Okay, Cat-lady, I've had enough of your poison claw things," Nocturne said. With a swift kick to the gut followed by a punch to the jaw, Nocturne took down Cheshire.

"Huh," Johnny Quick said disapprovingly, "and I thought Cheshire was supposed to be good."

Two replacements? Is it me or is this game going more quickly (and more brutally) than usual?.

First things first. Titania uses that great MOE ta to attack Vigilante. Needs 7, rolls 4.

Unus tks Psimon to M5.

Psimon tries to m/c Jakeem. Needs 6, rolls 3. Johnny rerolls 6 (token to Mary), Jakeem rerolls 7. He's m/ced. Jakeem to J5.

Next comes in Arcade with thwart. He'll outwit Jakeem's protected. He'll mastermind to Unus.

Major Force comes next, he'll rs to L4 and attack Jakeem. Needs 7, rolls 3. Aw, man. A whole lotta work for nothin'.

Adaptoid on Jakeem. Needs 8, rolls 11. 2 to him.

"Come here, little boy, don't be afraid. Psimon is very accommodating," Psimon says mentally coercing Jakeem Thunder. "Oh, and bring your thunderbolt along."

"Jakeem...where are you going?" Beta Ray Bill asks.

Jakeem doesn't reply, he simply moves forward.

"What do we do now?" Arcade asks, "We could take him out but that genie is killer!".

Major Force blasts the boy full power. "He's too dangerous to keep around."

"So much for a discussion of equals, huh?" Arcade adds.

Before Major Force can respond they look on to see Jakeem uninjured.

"The kid ain't even bruised. That looked like it was enough power to light up New York City," Unus says.

"And then some," Major Force says.

"I made you see what you wanted to in your head. Arcade is correct, we need to discuss this first. The boy and his pet genie may be of use to us yet."

Thud. Jakeem falls back into the wall, a repulsor ray pounding him.

"There is nothing to talk over, Psimon. I cannot even adapt his powers, he is simply too powerful. He therefore must be contained," the Super-Adaptoid says.

Oh yeah, Arcade masterminds to Unus.

Couple minor things - Arcade can't start in J3. I2 or K2 would be acceptable and still enable him to see Jakeem.

Psimon should have a click of damage from mind controlling Jakeem.

Titania's adjacent to Lilandra, not Vigilante, so her attack would have to go to her. No change. Still would have missed.

Finally Arcade can't MM to Unus, as Unus costs more. Once you reposition him, he could MM to Johnny Quick from either of those other spaces, but I'm not sure whether you want to.

Clarify on Arcade's position and whether he's Masterminding, and then I'll go.

Ok, corrected. Quick is the preferred choice to mm for Arcade.

Jakeem Perplexes Bill's AV to 11

Cosmic Boy uses Contingency Plan and boosts Bill's Damage to 5.

Bill targets Super Adaptoid. Shape Change is 4. RS to Q14, AV11 on DV17 +1. Gets 8. Adaptoid takes 3. Now that his special powers are kicking in, you're going to have to specify which if any powers you're stealing.

"Jakeem's in trouble!" Cosmic Boy shouted.

"Fear not," Beta Ray Bill said. "I will protect him." He threw his hammer at the Super-Adaptoid, who was preparing to attack Jakeem again. It dealt the android a solid hit.

"Uh oh," Jakeem said. "Not that I'm not grateful, but I'm not sure that was such a good idea."

In the Super-Adaptoid's hand, it held a hammer just like Bill's.

Bill can't target Adaptoid, he's all stealthy using camouflage next to the wall. Want to give Bill something else to do?

Instead Bill RS to M13, targets Psimon. AV11 on DV16, gets 8. With his damage boosted to 5, that KOs Psimon.

Before I write off Psimon whom I misued a bit placing him in such a spot of danger, he gets a shape change roll on Bill's attack. 3. Sadly it works and he's out.

Enter Ultrahumanite at K2.

Arcade outwits Jakeem's toughness. Johnny to J4 attacks Jakeem. Needs 9, gets 7. Rerolls 9. 3 to Jakeem, he ends at J1. I guess Ultrahumanite gets the token.

Ultrahumanite outwits Jakeem's pc.

"I'm in trouble here, big trouble," Jakeem says.

"Very true."

"Ultrahumanite!".

"True again. It seems boy, that your trouble just got worse."

"We'll see about that," Jakeem says. His thunderbolt hits the Ultrahumanite with lightning in several different ways.

"Stop! stop!" Jakeem yells.

"Master! What happened?" the thunderbolt asks.

"I did. It seems that my mental powers can even control a genie. Think of all the fun we could have together."

"Think of all the fun I'll have," the thunderbolt replies, "When I zap you with 1000 volts of lightning."

The Ultrahumanite merely yawns, "You'll have the same results. For a bolt of lightning, you're not very quick, are you?".

This time Jakeem will use his Protected.

Nocturne attacks Unus, AV9 on DV18. Gets 10. Super Senses is 4. She's got Psychic Blast, so Impervious doesn't enter into it. Unus takes 1.

Kid Flash to J3

Lilandra tries to breakaway. Gets 1.

Vigilante grabs Lilandra, rides to H14/H15, dropping off Lilandra in I13. He'll use his transporter move & attack to take a parting shot at Mary. AV9 -2 on DV13. Gets 7. She takes 2.

Nocturne hit Unus with an energy blast.

"Ow! Hey! That actually hurt," Unus complained. "How did you do that?"

"I'm not sure, but now that I know I can, you can bet I'll do it again," Nocturne said.

"C'mon Majesty," Vigilante said, grabbing Lilandra by the waist and pulling her back on his bike just as Titania lunged for her. "Let's get youback to someplace safer."

"You're not going anywhere," Typhoid Mary said, running at him with her sword drawn.

"I hate to argue, but my six-shooter says otherwise," Vigilante shot the dword out of her hand as he peeled out.

Jakeem is at J5, your recap still shows him at J13.

Titania to G13.

Major Force on Jakeem. Ultrahumanite outwits his toughness first. Needs 8, rolls 9. 3 to Jakeem.

Unus on Kid Flash (as if you gave me any choice). Needs 7, rolls 11. He's out.

Arcade attacks Nocturne. Needs 7, rolls 4. He outwits her psychic blast.

Super-Adaptoid on Jakeem. Needs 6, rolls 6. Jakeem rerolls 8. 2 more to the kid.

Mary to K5.
