(i believe your set-up had Yellowjacket and Shocker as not adjacent; it's no big deal, but then we should put Whirlwind in either W13 or W15 to make your move with YJ carrying Shocker possible... )

WCAvengers turn 1b

"Hey," said Hawkeye, "these guys look kinda familiar."

"Yes," said Ant-Man, "they should. We've faced the giant-sized one already under the Avengers mansion a few months back. The others are also known criminals. I created this training program from our regular databases, nothing unusual, really -- but these simulants should still pose a challenge."

"Let's get moving, team," said Wonder Man. "The program's obviously been started already. I'll see what I can do about the big guy."

=========================================

- ('free' TA move) Wonder Man grabs the Heavy Object in C10 and Hawkeye and jets to G8, placing Hawkeye in H8.
- ('free' TA move) Scarlet Witch moves to I14 (Stealthed).
- ('free' TA move) Ant-Man moves to H12.
- Mockingbird moves to H13.
- Moon Knight moves to I16.

Ack! You're right sorry about that...we'll put Whirlwind in W13.

"Wow, Hank really turned up the aggressive-meter on these robots," said Hawkeye. He had readied his bow but now found his movement cramped by a tiny flying simulant. Behind it, another simulant was taking aim with some sort of electrical-shock capabilities.

"Don't worry, Clint," said Wonder Man with a grunt as he hefted a motorcycle, "I should, hmph, be able to..." With a rush to one side, Wonder Man evaded the tiny flying unit and swung the motorcycle like a bat, striking the second simulant solidly, sending it flying across the rooftop and to the ground below.

"Glad you're on our side, Wondy," said Hawkeye to Wonder Man, who had to pause to catch his breath. Hawkeye then delivered a damaging slap to the flying nuisance nearby.

=======================
- Wonder Man attempts to break away > roll: 4. Wonder Man uses Charge, moves to I7 and attacks Shocker > AV10 vs DV16 > roll: 5+5=10 HIT. Shocker takes 4 + 2 (Heavy Object) - 1 (Toughness) = 5 damage and is KOd (even before he falls off the roof... ) Wonder Man takes 1 pushing damage. HO destroyed.
- Hawkeye attacks Yellowjacket > AV9 vs DV13 > roll: 4+2=6 HIT. Yellowjacket takes 2 damage.

( well, that was a lucky start; i seem to have such horrible luck with break away rolls (Iron Man failed three in a row in my most recent issue... ) I have to look up the new rules on the Masters of Evil TA!... )

oops, Scarlet Witch shouldn't have a token and she'll use her PC on the first successful MoEvil attack she can see.

Turn 3A

Sorry for no story posts..but then again, we're just simulants.

1. Mr. Hyde moves to I13

2. Goliath will to H5 (giant's ignore elevated and hindering terrain for movement, just checked it right now)

( don't worry about the story; i don't usually write this much for training matches, either )

- Mockingbird attacks Mr Hyde using CCE > AV8 vs DV15 > roll: 1+1=2 (eeek!) re-roll thanks to Wanda: 6+4=10 (that's more like it!) Mr Hyde takes 2 damage after Toughness.
- Ant-Man attacks Mr Hyde using Incapacitate > AV8 vs DV13 > roll: 4+2=6 HIT. Mr Hyde gets a second action token and takes 1 pushing damage.
(decisions, decisions... hmmm...)
_ Hawkeye pushes and attacks Yellowjacket > AV9 vs DV16 > roll: 5+1=6 MISS. Hawkeye takes 1 pushing damage. (darn)

Ooh..that's a bad miss for Hawkeye..although I think Mr. Hyde's will soon be useless...

Turn 4A

1. Mr. Hyde will use his MoE TA and push to attack on Wanda. AV 9 vs DV 15. Roll is 1, 5. That's barely a hit. I'm gonna assume you'd want me to reroll that. Reroll is 2, 4. That's barely a hit again and Wanda takes 4 clicks. Mr. Hyde takes another click.

2. Goliath will push to attack Wondy. AV 9 vs DV 16. Roll is 3, 6. Imperv roll is a 1. Wondy takes 4 clicks after imperv. Goliath takes a click.

3. Whirlwind moves to G7.

As Wanda took a vicious hit from one of the muscular but clumsy simulants, Mockingbird turned to Ant-Man, saying, "Do you Avengers always practice this recklessly?! She could be seriously hurt here!"

Hank's eyes were wide, hidden behind his helmet, but he said the predictable: "We have to practice in earnest; our lives are on the line out there almost every day."

Meanwhile, Moon Knight tried to draw the attention of the other robots with a flanking maneuver. Maybe he could get them to leave Wanda alone for a second.



- Wonder Man attempts to break away > roll: 5 (whew, i might still have a slim chance) Wonder Man grabs Hawkeye and the Light Object in J8 and moves to H15, placing Hawkeye in G16.
- Scarlet Witch attempts to break away > roll: 3. (ouch; i really have the worst luck with break away rolls, have i mentioned that already? )
- Moon Knight moves to L14.

Hey I think you breaking away with Wonder Man was big...Wanda not so much but Wonder Man was an important breakaway which you made.

Turn 5A

1. Yellowjacket will pick up Whirlwind and fly to J12, placing Whirlwind in I12.

2. Mr. Hyde will push again and attack Mockingbird before he bites the big one. AV 8 vs DV 18. Roll is 4, 6. Yeah totally didn't expect that. Mockbird takes 2 clicks and Hyde takes 1.
