Reed was walking towards the elevator when alarms started blaring.

Johnny looked up from where he was standing next to the Fantasticar, watching Crystal and She Hulk shoot the breeze. "That doesn't sound like the smoke alarm."

"No," Reed said as he stretched to a nearby panel, "that is most definitely the intruder alarm."

"Intruders?" She Hulk instantly tensed, "In the Baxter Building?"

"I'm afraid so, we have what looks like the X-men on the entry level," Reed replied

"The X-men?" Crystal was stunned. "Why would they attack us."

"The computer shows they're actually Skrulls . . . wait, I have more on the roof of the building. Scanning . . . DOOM!"

The force with which Reed uttered the last one was astonishing. An explosion sounded above and the lights on the elevator's panel behind Reed winked out.

"He's looking to cut our mobility, that was the one elevator that only we could take," Reed observed to no one in particular.

"What are we gonna do?" She Hulk asked.

"We'll have to assume Sue and Ben can handle the Skrulls for now and hopefully meet up with us soon, but we need to handle Doom and his lackeys."

"Johnny, go around the large elevator and target the ceiling where I indicate." Reed stretched and smashed in a section of the roof. "Hit that spot as hard as you can!"

"Flame on!" Johnny decided to go around the back way to avoid burning Reed and shot as hard as he could into the damaged ceiling. The ceiling smoked slightly and did nothing.

"It's okay Johnny, it's their move now." Reed turned as She Hulk ran to the wall around the corner.

"We just need to make them regret it." was her comment passing by.

Choonhui set the turns as follows:

Mon: Skrull/Doom
Tues: FF
Wed: break
Thurs: Skrull/Doom
Fri: FF
Sat & Sun : No Posts

Since the days got messed up this week as we were starting up, do you want the Skrull/Doom team to just wait until Monday to post? This way we can get back on track with what was suppossed to be set up.

What do you guys think?

That's fine by me. Due to time differences my moves might run into early morning Tues/Fri but still before the FF giving you plenty of time.

By the way Boymullet....your mail box is full.

Is that for e-mail or pm? Either way I just cleared them. Thanks for the reminder.

Can Super Skrull move the elevator he is currently in this turn without a move action? Could he move the elevator to the second floor this turn and get out the next turn?

If this is the way elevators work, then I will have elevator actions to follow my posting. Just adjusting the floors they are all on.

I am currently writing my post.

Actions

1)Pyro moves to I6. (Boards the elevator with the Fuzzy Elf.)


Locations

Super Skrull F7
Nightcrawler J5
Logan E5
Scarlet Witch E7
Pyro @ I6


The Story

He could hear the band playing and see the faces of the pretty women who all wanted to be near him. They all wanted to play the mating ritual with him. They all wanted to bear him a warrior son to bring pride to their families. In his mind he was fighting them all off.

“For the love of . . . Elf! Get back here and get your partner! Super Skrull finds out and we are eating him on the way home as the victory meal!” The Skrull who was Logan was as short tempered and mean spirited as the mutant he had copied. The bonding process worked on many levels. This assured the Skrull Empire that not only would they duplicate the powers but the fighting ability that went with it.

“What are you talking of Logan? Eat him?” Nightcrawler asked.

“We were supposed to have Cyclops as part of this team too. Remember that tough roast we had last night as we made final preparations for this mission?”

“Ja!” Nightcrawler looked puzzled and then recognition washed over his face and his countenance changed. “Do you mean we ate him?”

“JA! Now get your BE-HINDS in gear Elf!” Logan snorted.

BAMF!

The stench woke Pyro from his dream. “Ve have a mission to accomplish here. Don’t hurt yourself patting your own back until it is over. You do not want to end up like Cyclops!”

BAMF! Nightcrawler was back in the elevator.

Pyro ignited his flamethrowers to get ready for action. He saw Logan pull a cigar as he ran by, “Light, mate?”

A huge ball of fire filed the elevator singeing all the excess hair from Logan’s body. Humiliated but, unharmed.

“Get in the flamin’ elevator you flamin’ yahoo!” Logan was livid.

As Pyro turned a corner and headed for the elevator with Nightcrawler he yelled over his shoulder, “It is improper to use the same adjective to describe both your insult and your insultee. You angry little man!” The elevator doors closed behind him. “Let’s get going mate.”

“Now that you are here the party is ready to start?” Nightcrawler asked.

“Frickin’ JA! Mate. Frickin’ Ja!” Pyro smiled at his own cleverness. Nightcrawler just sighed and turned and depressed the button as planned. Then, they were off.

Can Super Skrull move the elevator he is currently in this turn without a move action?
Answer is yes.

Could he move the elevator to the second floor this turn and get out the next turn?

Answer is yes.
He can even exit the elevator with running shot.

Using the elevator does not cost any action. The elevator the one moving.....not the clix.

Think of the elevator as a taxi service up and down the stairs.

All Skrull Elevators move to the 5th floor.

ACTIONS

Taskmaster and Doom perplex up Taskmaster's damage to 4. (Free)
Scientist uses his Hydra TA to boost TM's attack to 13. (Free)
Taskmaster attacks hole in F9. (Action 1)
AV13 vs DV18, need a 5. Rolled 5+5=10. Hole in 6th floor F9.
Steve's elevator to 5th floor. (Free)
Everyone else pass.

THE STORY

Doom now knowing that the FF are below him decide that he best take action.

"Blast a hole through the floor Taskmaster! I'm not taking a d*mn elevator! They're deathtraps you know, " commands the ever surprising Dr Doom.

Taskmaster does as Doom says but not before having the Scientist Supreme point out the obvious by letting him know where the floor is.

By this time Steve what busy making his decision on which one of the nicely coloured elevator buttons to press. A short 'eeny meeny miny mo' later and he was sent to the 5th floor. Not the best choice.

The Story

Thing >>> I agree with Doom the elevators are death traps.
Sue >>> What U cannot be thinking what I think U are thinking ?
Thing >>> Precisely the elevators are DeathTrap.
Nova >>> It is a pity Reed designed the elevators to be so tough….DV 18, a weaker elevator would be better. Easier to destroy.
Sue >>> How can U even consider destroying the elevator.

The thing Charges the large elevator. Pulls the elevator cable and bring the entire elevator crashing down. (Note: AV 10 DV 18 Irony Dice roll 6,2=8, copy of the result sent to Skrull Team)

The elevator crashes to the ground floor together with the occupants.
Each occupant takes 2 damage Pyro & NightCrawler.
(Note: As the attack is on the elevator , no super sense roll. Same logic as Energy Explosion.)

(Looks like the occupants need to take another elevator , or take a slow climb up the elevator shaft…..unless they have flying. )


**** Mr. Fantastic Team…. At least U don’t have to worry about Nightcrawler and Pyro for a while. ****

Will post locations later tonight.

I'm not so sure I agree with this move. This is making the Thing's attack very powerful. He took out 6 squares with one attack.

This might work against the elevator Logan is in but I still wouldn't agree to the falling damage. It was not spelled out in how the elevators work. It might make sense that they no longer work but, two damage? And two damage without a Super Senses roll? That would be like saying two damage without using Invulnerability. It's what Nightcrawler has to reduce damage to him.

I think if the attack was against Logan's elevato I wouldn't have this much of a problem or if the Thing was not taking out 6 squares with one punch, I wouldn't have a problem. This just seems to be a huge effect for his action from two floors below.

"I think if the attack was against Logan's elevato I wouldn't have this much of a problem or if the Thing was not taking out 6 squares with one punch, I wouldn't have a problem. This just seems to be a huge effect for his action from two floors below."

Good point ...U are right taking out 6 squares is a bit much with one hit.

*** Rule Clarification ***
[\color=red]U can only take out one square of the elevator with a hit. In a situtation where there is another unoccupied square available. in the elevator. The clix can make a super sense roll. Otherwise the clix has to take falling Damage.

Fantastic Four Move....In this case I will apply my damage to Logan's Elevator. Logan takes 2-1 toughness = 1 damage and is back at first floor.

Still not happy but I do believe it is fair.

I'm only unhappy because Logan took a click. But, these things will happen in a game.

I did part of my turn at during lunch earlier?..So did not have my maps, etc?.I was so excited and could not wait to go home to finish the move.

A1) Thing Charges move to E 4, Elevator Roll 8, hit?..Elevator destroyed.

A2) Sue pushers move into Elevator Shaft intending to climb it.

A 3) Nova running shot to D 4, shoot at Logan AV 9 DV 15 + 1 hindering Roll 4 missed.
