Barry is actually on a different elevation than Cloak so he can't use steal energy.........do you still want to attack knowing that?

However, those two squares are still adjacent because of the ladder, so he can use it. At least, that's my understanding. I'll check in the rules forum.

After a brief search of the FAQ and the Rules Forum, it appears you were correct. I didn't even realise that it costs a movement point to go up a ladder. Silly rules. I'll just change my last action then...(darn it, Steal Energy is so hard to be able to use)

1) Moon Knight attacks Scorpion. AV of 8 vs DV of 12. Needs a 4. Rolls an 8 (5+3). Scorpion takes a click and is KOed. The HO drops to J12.

2) Elektra runs and dives to H13.

3) Cloak will move to S6.

Story post:

"Just give me a few more moments..." Moon Knight replied over his comm. Surely things had to start turning their way soon, he thought. He looked across to where Elektra was still nimbly avoiding the Scorpions attacks. She couldn't put a dent in his armour, but at least she was keeping him occupied.

Suddenly Scorpion looked up at him and sneered. Ignoring Elektra, he used his tail to yank away the tank of petrol that she was dancing around and marched towards him menacingly. Moon Knight knew he had just one chance. He pulled out one of his toxic crescent darts, and just as Scorpion lifted the tank up to squash him with, he shoved it into a small gap in the stomach plating. Scorpion's eyes rolled back in his head and he passed out.

"Nice job!" Elektra said, and then had to cartwheel away from a volley of energy blasts which just narrowly missed her. She found some cover behind a nearby fuel pump. "So, now whats the plan?"

Meanwhile MODOK had gone in search of the one designated Cloak. That one had intrigued him earlier, and was now cowering behind a building. Cloak's energy had been almost depleted. He was shivering from the cold when MODOK appeared above him with his stooge Barry.

Cloak glanced upwards. He teleported around the giant head, but his hunger kept him close by, hoping to steal some of the weaker man's life essence.

Well it's possible I'm wrong but I think the only time two different elevations are considered adjacent is the top of stairs and the next stair down. Not the ladder........but you're already checking so we'll know for sure. Which is always better.

**edit: we never stop learning.... **

Another question. Since Spider-man's a guest star in this issue, will he be able to play next issue at full health? The way that RB always treated guest stars in the past is that they don't carry over their wounds at all (like when my Knights made their guest appearance in X-men).

Yes, Spidey will be at full health if he were to be in your next squad.

Barry(6) takes a shot at Cloak(13 w SS), roll.........3,2 for 5. Miss. Oh, but the SS roll was going to be a 5.

And with that, this turn will mark the end of my moves for this game.....I won't be pushing Barry to KO himself(he doesn't get paid enough for that :P ). So take your turn 14 and 15 to finish up. I'll PM you the info you'll need to write start writing the end post.

Thanks for the game.

1) Cloak will push to attack Barry. AV of 7 vs DV of 11. Needs a 4. Rolls a 10 (5+5). Barry takes a click and is KOed. Cloak takes a click for pushing, but earns a click for Steal Energy, so stays the same. Oh, and he earns 3 IAP.

2) Black Widow will attack Decker. AV of 6 vs DV of 11. Needs a 5. Rolls a 6 (4+2). Hit for one click.

3) Moon Knight will attack Flap. AV of 8 vs DV of 14. Needs a 6. Rolls an 11 (5+6). Flap takes 2 clicks. Moon Knight doesn't take any damage for the push thanks to Willpower. He earns 2 IAP.

The rest clear.
