Gargantua and I are continuing over teams thru history, this time with a twist.

Game 1 takes the Avengers vs. Masters of Evil. Both teams must follow their chronological order to get to 2500. If the player passes on a member they can't be used.

Game 2 uses the same team concepts but instead of the known members we are playing replacements; characters who have some similarity to the original.

My teams:

Avengers:

Thor AvX 200
Iron Man IM3 001 150
Scarlet Witch CWFF 75
Hank Pym 75
Wasp CWFF 50
Quicksilver WTX 87
Hawkeye CW 98
Captain America CATWS 101 100-840

Replacements:

Balder 130
Cyborg TT25 143
Nico Minoru 84
Giganta FFLOD 100
Shrinking Violet SLOSH07 75
Northstar WTX13 75
Green Arrow AN 80
Captain Britain WTX 110-799

Inish is 2 for game 1; 5 for 2.

"The Masters of Evil, man, don't they ever learn?" Hawkeye asks.

"Apparently they have much in common with you, archer," Quicksilver notes.

"Thor, who do you want Wonder Man or Executioner?" Iron Man asks.

"Both. The rest of you can take the others," Thor replies.

"I bet you can take them both with one hand, handsome," the Wasp says.

"Ahem," Hank Pym says, "Remember which blond hero is yours, Janet."

"As if I could forget you, sweetie!".

"Wanda, I'm going to need your hex power to throw them off," Captain America says.

"They're yours, Cap. But can even the power of the Avengers beat this team of the Masters of Evil?" the Scarlet Witch asks.

Two questions: We still doing the Crazy 8s effect switching between teams?

And shouldn't we just have whoever picks map and goes first in one game, the other person picks map in the second?

I roll 7 for game 1, so that gives me inish there, and if you're with me you get to choose map for game 2. Shall we try Blackgate Prison? http://www.ianparmenter.com/hcutils2...prefs=ababcdae

There are special rules for the bridges (under the Map Rules link), but they'd work pretty well as you'd expect. Characters on the lower level can ignore the bridge when moving or drawing line of fire to another character on the lower level.

150 CA054 Baron Zemo
95 CW020 Black Knight
86 IIM034 Melter
80 SN063 Radioactive Man
141 HA011 Enchantress
89 AW066 Executioner
118 CW028 Wonder Man
41 IC096 Whirlwind
800

For my replacements

Build
133 OR091 Vandal Savage
106 IIM035 Dreadknight
90 DOFP006 Pyro
105 JL52010 Firestorm
50 JL52016R Enchantress
125 TDW009 Algrim
86 WXM036 Smasher
143 TT046 Red Tornado
838

I would ignore the Earthquake optional rules though, unless you really want to.

"The Avengers are here," the Enchantress said.

"Excellent," Vandal Savage smiled. There was no humor at all in it. "They're walking right into our trap. Are my Masters of Evil ready?"

"Algrim is always ready," the Dark Elf said.

"As am I," the Dreadknight agreed.

"My winds will pound them into submission," Red Tornado said.

"They have no chance against my transmutation power," Firestorm the Nuclear Man said.

"What are we waiting for? Let's slag 'em," Pyro was juggling fireballs.

Only Smasher was quiet, the bravado the other Masters of Evil were showing was absent in him.

Sure, we can do crazy 8s like planned. Or maybe we don't even need to.
What do you think?

Are we really sticking with 2500 on this one? I'm thinking if for no other reason just to have the most potential fun with the replacements that we'd want to go higher than that. We could do 3000 easy and I'm thinking even 3500 might not be a stretch.

"Don't get me wrong, Baron," Melter said. "Not that I don't appreciate you breaking us out of prison, but did you have to bring the Avengers with you?"

"Fool! Why else do you think I freed you if not to defeat the Avengers?"

"Still, a few minutes to plan might have been nice," Whirlwind said.

"You? Plan? Please," Enchantress said. "You would need a brain for that. Leave the planning to Zemo."

"You accept the commands of a mortal, Amora?" Executioner asked.

"The Baron has proven his leadership ability," Black Knight said. "There is wisdom in following him."

"You're quiet, Wonder Man. Having second thoughts?" Zemo asked him.

"No, no. Of course not. The Avengers will fall today," Wonder Man said. But it seemed his heart wasn't really in it.

I can do move than 2500 easily, I do like the whole Replacements thing...already planning ahead.

"Avengers Assemble!" Shrinking Violet calls out.

"You need a megaphone, shorty," Giganta says, "We can barely hear you."

"Would that we could say the same about you," Northstar says wrenching his ears.

"What do we do, Cap?" Cyborg asks.

"Stay put," Captain Britain ponders, "Let's see what we're dealing with."

Nico Minoru creates a magic portal to see their foes. "Here they are," she says.

"They are worthy of the Avengers power," Balder says.

"Worthy of the tip of my arrow at least, Baldy," Green Arrow says patting his pal on the back.

I moved my MOE first, you should make the first move with your replacement Avengers
