Gargantua and I are diving right into another round of six 10000 point games, the objective: just play as many figures as we can. The chance to dust off old favorites and some more obscure characters that don't normally see much play time. Not to say you won't see Thor and Iron Man, Batman and Superman in the mix too. Typically the focus is on Marvel and DC, but any character that's been clixed is fair game, from Turtles to Trek, Undead to Yu-Gi-Oh. You never know who will show up.
We will start with three extras (ie feats, teams ups, ID cards, objects, tarots, whatever we like) and at every 1000 point mark, we will replace with a new batch. Each can only be used once per 10k.
What will eventually become the obligatory X-Men game, I'm starting with a Horsemen theme. However I am going to try very hard to limit myself and not monopolize 75% of the game with every X-Men ever made

"This is what they send against us? This? Half of them are nothing more than powerless humans with some weapons. For this the Horsemen ride?" Genesis demanded.
"This is but an opening gambit. As in chess, they are leading with their pawns," Apocalypse said.
Damn those Horsemen are a problem. The hard to hit part is only half of it, that's se is a problem.
Stupidly, I'll take a risk. That rarely works out. Widow makes Rhino's av 12. SG ups Rhino's av to 14. Bats to E5, makes his damage 5. Gordon tks him, as an action, and Police C free, to D9 and 10.
Rhino ports to J15. Grabs the ho and charges to N14 on Death. gets 8. I think your PC isn't around. SS is 3. Wow. That's 4 + 1 (boosted damage by Bats) + 2 (HO) that's 7.
He's sure to pay for it but Rhino just koed Death. No block, though.

I usually indicate which character have PC in my recap to make it easier for you. I didn't do that yet, but you were correct. No one who could have affected Rhino's attack.
Genesis, Tarn Leadership - 3,6. Tarn bring in Mother Rapture.
Death was my Outwitter. I could use another. I guess I will roll in Dark Beast now. Outwits Invincible on Rhino.
Genesis Charges to O14 on him. AV12 on DV18. Gets 6. Blades is 5.
Famine on him, AV11 on DV17. Gets 3. Genesis makes it 8. 4 more Penetrating KOs him.
Tarn Perplexes Mother Rapture's move to 9
Mother to N14 for the block
War RS to D10, double targets Police C and Batman - with her Night Vision Goggles. AV11 on DV16 and 18. Gets 7. That'll be good to hit Batman for 3.
She then teleports back to I14
War Perplexes her own DV +1 on top of her First Children bonus.
Rhino KOd and blocked. 3 to Batman.

"And, as in a chess match, each side exchanges a piece or two to test the other player's abilities," Apocalypse said.
"Your analogy is getting tired, husband," Genesis said, bringing her sword to bear on Rhino.
"Super strength, invulnerability," Dark Beast analyzed Rhino's powers, "how boring. I can't get anything interesting from him. Dispose of him."
Famine moved in to do just that.
"I suspect that if there is a grandmaster on their side controlling the moves, it is this Batman. Let's see how they do without him," War flew in blasting.
Wow, we're 300 points apart already. I need to spend 100 points to ko you. Not gonna happe
Kinda my fault for doing a fairly beefy starting team. Technically you shouldn't even have been able to KO Death, given the 200 point rule, but I think there should be an allowance for that, when we're all on out starting teams.

Croc has safeguard outwit for a turn.
You mean Safeguard PC, yes?

Forgot to point it out for Rhino but because Space Ghost used perplex on Croc, he has safeguard: PC until my next turn.
So we're on the same page, this doesn't mean that I can't use PC on my figures when I am attacking him. It just means I can't target him with PC, so anyone who might have tried to turn that hit on Famine into a miss, couldn't.
