[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5594162, member: 19675"] Re: this In either case, it's going to be detail dependent. What level are the characters in question? Are they equipped in a general sense and just encounter each other, or is one on an active hunt for the other? Is it just a canned fight, or is it something that happens in the full context of the game world? Is the rogue going to be played to its fullest potential or not? Re: Supes v Bats: Actually, its kind of the flipside of Rogue vs Mage. Supes has a wide variety of powers and very few weaknesses. Whether or not Bats always has kryptonite, kryptonite isn't a panacea vs kryptonians. After all, its radiation has a limited range, and many of Supes' offensive powers operate just fine outside of it. Second, while Bats is fast, Kal-El is capable of relativistic speeds. Were Clark Kent interviewing Bruce for an op-ed piece in the Daily Planet, Supes could flash fry him with his heat vision before his merely human reflexes registered the removal of the glasses to do so. Hell, that movement might not even register on the security cameras. Or he could take a big old breath before entering, and go from talking with it to more than gale-force pressures in under a second. Heck, Batman & his Batmobile could disappear in a flash of light, and heat, struck by a freak accidental meteor strike- in reality, a slab of stone Superman launched from orbit. Supes doesn't think like that, no. But other Kryptonians do: Zod, Faora...and who knows what its like on the mean streets of Kandor? And then there's the little matter of Daxamites. They look as much like humans as Kryptonians do, and have nearly identical powers...but are not vulnerable to kyrptonite at all. Their weakness is lead. Without prior knowledge that the foe he faces is a Daxamite, Batman would not only be surprised, he'd probably be unprepared...and dead shortly afterwards. But just like the rogue, if he knows his foe, he WILL be prepared, and he will stand a decent chance of defeating his opponent. [/QUOTE]
