So with the points store closing this week, I jumped on and spent my last 1000 points on a single copy of Super-Town. Inspiration struck but now i've hit a wall. How do I win the game? Here's the list:
4 x Serifan
4 x Sarge Steel
4 x Ahmed Samsarra
4 x Scientist Supreme
1 x Adrian Chase
1 x Valentina Vostok
4 x Talia Daughter of Madness
1 x Annihilation Protocol
2 x Huntress
1 x Hunter Zolomon
1 x Lightray
1 x Sasha Bourdeaux
1 x Deathstroke the Terminator
1 x Super-Town
2 x Rook Control
2 x Brother Eye
4 x Brother I Satellite
4 x Checkmate Safe-House
1 x Dr. Fate's Tower
2 x The Science Spire
1 x New Genesis
1 x The Source
2 x Slaughter Swamp
1 x Cloak of Nabu
4 x Enemy of my Enemy
4 x Astro Force
59 cards Total
The strategy is turn 2 Serifan/Sarge, turn 3 Ahmed, turn 4 hidden 4 drop (I'm still not sold on Scientist, any ideas?) Rook Serifan if I dropped him on 2 Ahmed gets Super-Town for a counter in recovery, turn 5 Talia drops Serifan if I missed on 2 or Sarge if I didn't. Thats as far as the combo goes. The rest of the curve, including the hidden 4, I'm not so sure on. I now i need enough Checkmate to reliably drop Ahmed but other than that I'm stumped.
Should I keep Hunter and use New Genesis for the double attack? If so should I up him to two? And what about Astro Force? I love it but it may prevent me from using my seven drops power. Should I use Mr. Mxyzptlk to keep my hand up or is OMAC plus Brother Eye enough? Which seven should I use? Lightray seems good and will be very useful off initiative, but do I need Sasha for Ahmeds reveal? And how do i cap my curve? The best I could come up with is The Spectre but how reliably could I get him stunned?
Anyway my head is starting to hurt so I thought I'd throw it out to the realms for help. Help me please :)

You should run the Spectre-lock that Ryan Lockard developed for the Checkmate PC Indy: turn 7 Aquaman (the 15/16 leader), during combat return Spectre and Join Us or Die, turn 8 Spectre + Join Us. Of course, you need a Society guy to search up the Join Us, but maybe there's something to that?
I'd prefer a visible 4-drop; Highfather is a good size and on-team, no? It might be a pipe dream, but if you can get Baron Strucker reinforced on 6 and search up uh... Geraci Family Estate or some nonsense? You could have an invulnerable reinforced 13/12 who recovers once a turn. Hunter Zolomon + New Genesis is pretty sexy though.
Finally, I'd run some Mr Mxys for sure. Oh, and Serifan is awesome. He's been called the Gay Cowboy around here for years.
I love the Join Us or Die! idea, it works well with Hunter also so maybe throw two or three copies of it and STTG for the Astro Forces. Lose Sasha, Deathstroke and a Satellite for the Mxy's and Aquaman?
However the four needs to be recruited hidden so I can Rook Control Serifan away into the hidden area on four or five. If I take evens, I can attack on four to minimize damage and once I Rook Serifan the four will be visible. Unfortunately Society has no hidden fours so the only spot open is six, Deathstroke perhaps?
