Mikeinmke is right as far as I am aware, Hulk would have to stop-n'-punch before he could pick up the HO.

Mike and Gargan are correct, you can't yank an object in your final square of movement.

As long as they have enough charge movement, flyers can usually pull of that trick of grabbing an object from under someone to hit them with, as they don't have to stop when they become based, but grounded bricks usually can't.

It's the Defenders' turn, i believe?...

Oh sorry, it is too. I'll post asap.

The Hulk's felt pain like he never had before- not physical pain, but deeper than that. It was as if his very soul was splintering, shattering into disparate pieces. He cried aloud and finally spotted the source of his discomort- the tiny Ant-man, wielding the Soul Gem.

"Tiny Bug hurts Hulk. Hulk will squash bug!" Hulk slammed a fist down onto Ant-Man. Pym's eye's went wide and he shrunk down so tiny that he jsut barely evaded the great green fist. "Ha. Tiny bug is gone. Hulk squashed."

Defenders Turn 8


1) Hulk vs Ant-Man. AV of 8 vs DV of 18. Needs a 10. Rolls an 8 (2+6). Miss. He takes a push click.

Free) Strange will Outwit Starfox's special Perplex.

The other two clear.

"I remember you from Skrullos, when we aided in your escape from the Skrulls." Adam said as he attempted to penetrate Vision's defenses. "It is a shame that we have been forced to meet again under such confrontational circumstances.

While Spider-Man was still in the fight, he had taken quite a beating, especially at the hands of Gamora. While Ant-Man had tried to heal him, it wasn't enough to keep him back in the game, especially compared to Peter Quill, who was still fully in the fight.

Gamora wasn't sure what was happening, but there was something causing Hulk problems. She charged forwards, watching and noticing that there was something alive. moving away from where a pile of broken floor pieces sat. Odds were it was whoever Hulk had been trying to smash.

"HIYyyy!" She screamed as she leapt of the stairs. She swung her sword around as she came down on top of the still-miniatureized Hank Pym, stabbing her blade into the ground right where he had landed. Ant-Man was more than on top of the situation, easily leaping aside and avoiding getting sliced into bite-sized pieces.

"You're mine, little guy." Gamora said, her sinister smirk never dying as she pulled her blade out of the ground. She tried to stomp her heel down on Ant-Man and crush him like the bug that had given him his name sake. But once again he easily moved out of the way.

I must apologize: Being unfamiliar with the event dial here and the multiple special rules and powers in play here, i erred. I have been inquiring how the Soul Gem might work against multiple adjacent opposing figures and learned that I made a mistake.

Back in my turn 4c, Ant-Man should not have damaged Hulk at all with the 'super-Poison' because Hulk had Invulnerability, and the Soul Gem-Poison should have dealt Hulk 2 damage -- not 3. (Of course, then I wouldn't have used the Poison option of the Soul Gem...)

How should we proceed?

wow.. almost an entire week...

I was thinking that Gargan would have provided a ruling of some kind. Aside from Hulk not taking that damage and Ant-Man not using Poison if you'd known how it worked, is there any other impact on the game that would have come from you knowing the way the Soul Gem poison works and/or what you would have done differently as a result?

Sorry, I figured you guys were just going to work it out amongst yourselves.

The ruling that has been in place for years at my venue is if any other dice were rolled since the mistake was made, you just play on. Dice can't be un-rolled, and even if an attack or breakaway may not have been directly influenced by the mistake, you can never really know if the player would have made the same decisions that they did with the mistake in place.

So in this case it would be too late to un-do the damage to Hulk. Just accept it and move on, and play the Soul Gem's damage correctly in the future.

Okely Dokely, lets get this back on track,

Defenders Turn 9

1) Dr Strange will phase to F15, grabbing the Mind Gem on his way.

Free) Doc Strange will Outwit the Vision's Impervious.

2) Valkyrie will attack Vision. AV of 8 vs DV of 14. Needs a 6. Rolls is a 10 (5+5). Hit fo 3 damage, plus knockback into the blocking for an extra one. I'll split the TAP with Doc for the Assist, so that is 3 each.

You mean the Mind Gem, right?

Oh yeah that's it. I will edit it to clarify. Don't worry, Doc isn't stealing Adam's gem.

I was worried more about you stealing Ant-Man's gem, actually.

(Well, stealing it illegally, that is.)
