Freedom Phalanx: Turn 13

1) "Hang in there Manticore, on my way!" Positron shouts, jetting to L17

free) As Tom swoops in close, Manticore instantly fires an arrow directly into his onboard battle-computer, disabling it, at least for the moment. Manticore outwits Tom's PC

Everyone else clears and Jane will PC anything she might see

Squadron Supreme: Turn 14A

1) Amphibian perplex Up Tom' attack.
-This is it, Arrow boy- Say Tom attacking Manticore.
10 to 14. Tom get 1,6: 7. Lady Jane PC and Tom attack again! 2,2: 4! for the KO. with 2 clicks+1 for knock back damage.

-This was not easy- Say the Small scientist watching his great adversary of this battle unconscious on the floor...

1 AST for Amphibian. 1 SA and 1 KO for Tom Thumb.

2) -The Battle is not over yet!- Say Amphibian watching Positron getting ready to attack his friends, Amphibian JUMPS over Positron at K16.

This is a PUSH for Amphibian.

All figures with Defenders share their defense. Tom will PC anything he might see.

Squadron Supreme: Turn 15A

The Battle approach to an exciting end were EVERYTHING can happen!

1) -Amphibian risky his life for Us, Skymax-
-It's time for us to do the SAME, Tom-

Skymax will try to break away: 4! He do it and there Lady Jane can't see him!

Skymax carry Tom to protect Amphibian! (Skymax is now in I14 and Tom in J15) they all end togetter, BACK TO BACK, holding the line, each one protecting each other as the Squadron Supreme, against the Freedom Phalanx!

(as Defender and combat reflexes Amphibian will have 17+2 defense in close)

2) Tom wil perplex DOWN Statesman attack. (his attack will be 7 now).

Amphibian copy the Defenders ability. All figures with Defenders share their defense. Tom will PC anything he might see.

Also Amphibian will have the change to go away if is knock back. Just ask me first please.

The Map is all right.

You realise, of course, that you're actually better off *loosing* the pre-season game as you get more points that way and nothing is at stake than winning, so it really would have been smarter to stand your ground and go for the STATS

Freedom Phalanx: Turn 15

1) Lady Jane opens fire with both barrels on Amphibian. 8 atk. vs 17 (borrowed from Tom, +1 from terrain) def. Needs a 10. Roll is: (3,3) for a 6 and a miss (No DFD for Tom as that would have missed anyway). She'll PC her own attack and try that again. Second roll is: (6,4) for a 10 and a hit! Stealth, and Statesman, blocks LOF to Tom so the hit stands. Amphibian takes 2 and looses perplex, returning Statesman's attack to normal. 1 SA and 1 from the push for Lady Jane.

A hail of gunfire suddenly heralds Lady Jane's personal appearance in the end game of the fight, several high powered slugs punching through even Amphibian's hardened skin!

2) Taking advantage of the sudden distraction, Statesman unleashes a flurry of blows against his agile opponent. Statesman flurries Amphibian. First attack, 8 atk. vs 17 (borrowed from Tom, +2 from Combat Reflexes) def. Needs an 11. Roll is: (3,3) for a 6 and a miss (and again, no DFD as that would have missed on its own) and the HO is destroyed. Second attack, still needs an 11. Roll is: (5,2) for a 7 and a miss! 1 DFD for Tom as that would have pasted Amphibian otherwise. Statesman takes 1 from the push.

3) Positron takes a swing at Amphibian. 9 atk. vs 17 (borrowed from Tom, +2 from deflection) def. Needs a 10. Roll is: (2,1) for a 3 and a total miss which certainly isn't going to give Tom any stats either.

And that's all she wrote for this one. Thanks for a great game Carlos and even more thanks for the 10 points, I *really* needed those for my drafting plans come mid-season!

Hahaha! yea! I thought about "loosing" in some point but still not sure how the things work. It is 5 points for Me then?

What counts as Victory points? the figs we KO or what we KO and we have left?

Because I begin with 395 and you 400 and I KO 165 and you 160. It this a tie?

(and what happen when there is actually a tie??)

Thanks for the AWESOME game! You have a fantastic team! so hard to do ANYTHING with so many teams that you copy in the right time.

Any advice is welcome (and I really thought I should had push Amphibian early. )

Fantastic Game!

Yep, you get 5 points for the win which are added to your recruitment point total. And believe me it's not like I was "playing to loose" either, I'm just not terribly upset about it since, in order to pick up the figure I want for the mid-season I need at least two losses, I'm glad to have one of them here where it doesn't count. Especially in a great game where we both racked up some great STATS too!

And we go only by KO points, you get what you KO'ed, and nothing else.

And yes, pushing Amphibian to perplex earlier would probably have been more helpful, but with the number of assists he scored this game it should be fairly easy to upgrade him with a feat like Contingency Plan which should make keeping him on his first click a lot more interesting.

You played a great game Carlos and I'll be looking forward to following your team in the regular season. Congratulations, and good luck!

Good luck to you Melkhor! thanks for all the answers and I was just lucky, your team is very awesome!

Forgot about that I want those rare moments of victory I can take for morale even when the game means nothing lol

Lol, it happens. It is not usual for me to win games (and this was just for luck) so I'm still surprise in any case.

Oh and I must say I loved your post in 15A
"The Battle approach to an exciting end were EVERYTHING can happen!"
Reminded me so much of the Muchariffic Mafia games

Hahaha, I MISS the Mafia Games too!

I enjoyed very much each ones of the Melkhor posts and that make me do better story posts!
