Ugh Locust horde. I have a horrible track record against anything with "Grenade" anywhere near the card...

Inti 1+3+5=9
Tiebreaker 4+3+5=12

If you win the map roll remember we have to play on either Helm's Deep or Helm's Dike map, it'll just be your choice which one.

I did say I was upping the difficulty. If Fantomex can keep being a boss like he was last game, I think you'll be fine.

Init roll...2 + 6 = 8, +7 = 15

I'll choose Helm's Deep, and you can go first.

Super Senses: 3 and the Preist goes down.

Aurora Clears, X-23 will TTPC any attack she can see that is successful on Fantomex, but no other TTPC. Thanks!

and its here that I noticed you have TTPC but no Instructions, So usually that means "Don't use it" over in the leagues, but do you want to use TTPC on Wolverine or Sabretooth's attacks? Theres a line of fire for both attacks, but no line of fire to Fantomex for the opening shot. My turn doesn't change if you chose to use it and they miss, just go ahead and reroll the attacks and adjust health as necessary. Just a side note, Super Senses can't be rerolled, only my attack rolls.

General Raam tries to access the power of the Uru Forge...JUST makes it with a 3. He reaches into the burning cauldron and pulls out Dr. Octopus's arms. He'll try to pick up the arms after he clears.

Skorge swings the staff at Sabertooth, 10 on 19...it's a 10. Sabertooth rolls for Super Senses...it's a 1. Rolling for Blades...it's a 3. Sabertooth takes 3. Skorge takes 1 for pushing.

Moe hightails it to G9 with Phase/Teleport, choosing to knock E.V.A. back 1 square. She hits the blocking terrain and takes 1, getting destroyed in the process.

Everyone else clears.

TTPC will used by Larry for attacks dealt to Skorge. Moe will use TTPC if RAAM gets attacked.
