"A Museum" Doom smiles coldly under his iron mask. "How very fitting that Doom and Richards should face each other. This place will be a fitting monument over the inherent inferiority of Richards and the self-evident superiority of Doom!"

Looking nerveously up form his notes the Scientist Supreme clears his throat and speaks to his new Master. "Lord Doom, once again I must urge you to reconsider this cause of action. We have not yet successfully harnessed the sample of the Power Cosmic that we manage to reverse-engineer from our meeting with the Silver Surfer so why not simply postpone this encounter until we can have it ready for you?"

"SILENCE lackey!" Doom roars. "Doom's will must not be questioned, and Doom's just revenge must NOT be delayed. Richards will be ground into the dust under my iron heel today, and he must know that it was Doom, and only Doom alone who orchestrated his fall. Today the acursed Richards, and all who would stand beside him, will DIE!"

Latveria: Turn 1

free) "our foes have arrived" Doom muses. "This will be a day long remembered by history!" Doom uses Lord of Latveria to attempt to outwit Black Panther's Stealth. Roll is: 5 and stealth is gone!

"Your attempts to hide from Doom are woefully inadequate!" Doom uses his universal remote to take control of the Museum's lighting system and by his command several bright spotlights turn on and convene on Black Panther's exact location!

1) "Tactical deployment plans downloaded, executing as ordered!" The Doombot reports, picking up the Scientist Supreme, flying to to C3 and placing the Scientist in D4

free) Doom diverts power to his gauntlet blasters, ensuring they are fully charged. Doom perplexes his own damage up to 4

2) "And now, King of Wakanda, you shall see the folly of invoking Doom's ire!" Doom makes a running shot to E4, gunning for the Panther! 11 (+1 from Hydra) atk. vs 15 (+1 from terrain) def. Needs a 4. Roll is: (4,2) for a 6 and a hit! Black Panther takes 4! 1 SA for Doom.

Caught like a deer in headlights, The Panther is unable to avoid Doom's computer-controlled barrage and nearly blasted into oblivion where he stands! Only the vibranium-weave of his costume allows him to absorb enough of the concussive force to remain on his legs, for now...

The Processing Hub stands back and awaits further orders.

Doom believes himself to be quite safe from retaliation (as Spidey and She-thing are the only ones capable of harming him) so there will be no need for Mastermind or Protected instructions for now

Latveria: Turn 2

free) "Come Richards, and face your final destiny!" Doom shouts. Doom rolls for Lord of Latveria to Outwit She-Thing's Super Strength. Roll is: 6 and it's gone. The Object drops under her feet.

Doom smiles as a light flashes green, signaling that his Power Compressor is now fully charged. With a flick of an internal switch, the cosmic radiation granting Sharon Ventura her massive strength bleeds away in the blink of an eye!

free) Doom then extends his personal force-field slightly, granting the Scientist Supreme some additional protection. Doom perplexes Scientist Supreme's defense up to 15

Doom stands back, content with how things have progressed so far. Everyone clears.

If struck by a critical hit from Lockjaw, Doom will use Protected.

Just giving this a friendly bumb to keep in on the front page

Sorry, yeah, I've just been a) busy and b) contemplating this extremely sticky game. I don't want to rush into a disastrous move.

Turn 3, Player 1:

1) Reed pushes to move to B-11. "What have you done with Ben, Victor? If you've harmed him, know that no power on this Earth will keep you safe, diplomatic immunity or no." He warned sternly. 1 push click to Reed.

2) Johnny grabs his sister and blazes to C-11, dropping her in B-12. "Let's just get him, guys!"

3) Spidey leap/climbs to E-9. "Geez, Torch, slow down, wouldja? Where's the fire? Oh, wait, right." Peter chuckled nervously to himself, trying not to think about fighting THE Dr Doom.

Latveria: Turn 3

free) "Your threats are futile Reed, with or without your brutish friend you still stand no chance against Doom!" Doom activates his targeting systems, perplexing his attack up to 12

1) "Moving to support position" The Processing Hub jets to D2

free) "I have you now!" Doom smiles as his targeting computers lock on to Johnny and starts mapping out his predicted evasive flight pattern. Doom outwits Johnny's Energy Shield with Lord of Latveria. No roll needed as he has a clear LOF

free) "Targeting software online, data-feed enabled!" The Doombot reports. Doombot copies Hydra.

2) "Now watch the suffering your own arrogance has brought down upon your family!" Doom maneuvers into position and unloads an explosive barrage of energy from his gauntlet blasters! Doom picks up the Scientist and makes a Running Shot Energy Explosion to D4, placing the Scientist in E4. He targets Johnny and Reed. 12 (+2 from Hydra) atk. vs 18 (+1 from terrain) def. Needs a 5 for both. Roll is: (4,4) for an 8 and Reed, Johnny and Sue are all hit twice!

As per the FF rules, knockback starts with the character farthest from the attacker, which would be Sue. Sue takes 2 from the double splash, is knocked back to A13 and then into the edge of the map for 1 more for a total of 3 damage. Reed takes 1 after toughness and is knocked back to B12 and finally Johnny takes 2, is knocked back to D12 and then into the wall between D12 and E13 for 1 more for a total of 3 damage! 1 SA to Doom!

The thunderous blast unleashed by Doom's gauntlets smash straight through Sue's protective forcefield, which was undoubtedly weakened by the presence of the Power Compressor, to detonate with brutal force, hurling Marvel's First Family through the air like ragdolls

Reed's pliable body allows him to absorb much of the shockwave and land relatively safe on his feet but Johnny and Sue are not so lucky as they both smash into the museum walls with sickening *thud*!

"Such is the power of Doom, Richards!" Doom laughs coldly over the carnage. "Submit now, and mayhab your family may yet live to see another day!"

free) Doom interfaces with the Doombot and the Hub to focus the Power Compressor on Johnny's location, snuffing out his flame. Doom and the Doombot both copy Superman Enemy, giving Outwit to Doom which he uses to Outwit Johnny's Energy Explosion. I suppose technically that could be considered a DFD for Doom, but it seems a bit too far-fetched so I won't give him any

free) The Doombot and the Hub adds their computing power to the mix, suppressing the last remaining power in Johnny. Doombot gains Outwit from the Hub and uses it to Outwit Johnny's Carry ability.

If struck by a critical hit from Lockjaw, Doom will Mastermind it to his Doombot rather than use Protected. Anything less and he will let his invulnerability handle it.

Well, I daresay that went rather well
It was some nice positioning though! I spent at least half an hour looking at every possible angle to see if there was any decent way for me to outwit both Defend AND the FF TA before I took the shot but in the end it worked out just fine this way.

Sorry for the delays, I've just been trying to give this game the attention it needs instead of squeezing it in when I can't think properly. And now, when I'm sitting down for this one, the map tool isn't working for me. From when it was, though, Johnny's knockback looked kinda wonky to me. I refreshed myself on the specifics of knockback in the FF rulebook and I /think/ it's technically legal (if nonsensical). I don't want to make a big deal about it, especially since I think it's probably correct, but while I'm unable to take my turn would you double-check yourself and see if you come to the same conclusion again? I guess this sounds like an odd request since I'm not disputing you, just asking if you'll give it a second look on your own.
