Marvel Avengers, 1889 [Full]

[Karl Green]

Yeah, sorry bout that. Still kinda shaky at this. But with an attack roll of 28 I assume I shall be doing more than 1 damage, eh?

Totally, when I update the Round you will see that you hit well over +10 Shark Killer's defense, but just want to make sure you know and all

Hey Karl! (everyone)

Any chance I can get into the game?
As a side note - I got to play in this first bit of "issue 1" that Karl ran in real life and of course set the scenes with my own 2-3 game run to create the idea.

It's truly awesome to imagine - the only sucky thing (for Karl and I) is that we can't find 2-3 more people physically here in Seattle to PLAY this game on Table Top.


Anyway - if there's space, I'd love to play. If not, no worries... I could come in before or after this opening scene if that's an option.

The characters I'd be interested in making to play would be:

- Iron Man
- Carol Danvers (Ms. Marvel)
- Thor
- Machine Man
- Ant Man (Giant Man, Yellowjacket)

OR
perhaps even better, since you already have 8 PCs, - rather than being a "field agent" I could play support as scientist and potential Avenger:

- Hank Pym


Everyone loves to hate Pym, and it'd be fun to play.

anyway - let me know.
thanks

Karl,

You should make a deal with Kev that he should GM a M&M game here too.

Like a Second Stringer Marvel Villains Game?? HINT HINT

~H4H (who was in Kev's villains game in first edition M&M)

Hehe, yes AND Kevin also ran an Averagers game where I was playing Catpain America.... all was VERY cool

Anyway, the group is pretty darn big, and I worry about big groups as it only takes one or two people to stop posting to throw a monkey wrench into things BUT I always totally enjoy your posts SOOOO totally 100% you can add someone.

Now you might not be in the big battle at the beginning AND you already know the plot but I trust you to not play with the knowledge as it were.

Maybe you can play Captain Britania for the first part and we will come up with a reason why you did not come with the group to the place they are now

 

[Karl Green]

OK, just waiting for Jemal to post for Wolverine... I may make rolls for him if no post by the end of the day or so

 

[Karl Green]

hehe Thanks man... ok Surprise Round posting a coming...

 

[Karl Green]

Wolverine does NOT have evasion, and I'm going to use a HP to reroll my 13 Tougness.
28 + 10(HeroPoint)=38.

Just a quick note, when you spend a Hero Point to re-roll, you only get he +10 if you rolled a 10 or below, so that you always get at least a 11-20 on your re-roll. As Wolverine rolled an 18, he does not get the +10, but a 28 is still high enough

Karl- I don't think Master Plan affects all rolls, only some subset of them.

Hulk, presumably Thor, Widow, Wolverine will get Inspire bonuses for actions next round. Ronin may want to delay 3 init counts to get Inspire bonus to his atck next round instead of a round later. Inspire is +5 to atck, saves, skill checks: consider power attck and using feints or the like to rake adv of skill bonus.

Also, people may want to have "attack a stunned opponent if there is one" as a contingent tactic. Not enough time to really roll saves, thanks to everyone who is rolling them for me.

I re-read Master Plan (M&M 2nd ed, pg. 62) and it is to “all skill rolls and attack rolls”. I did mix it up and give it to Shark Killer for his Toughness save BUT he rolled so high anyway it does not matter BUT I will edit. \

Yes Captain Britania’s Inspire will help Wolverine, Justice, Black Widow, the Hulk in Round 1 and Ronin in Round 2 (as he acts before you). Depending on when Scarlet Witch and Thor go, they maybe helped on that round or the next round

Toughness: 14 http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1190656

(well...that was fun. Sometimes I kind of prefer hit points. :\ )

Will: 13 http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1190676

(Anyone else ever think Invisible Castle tilts low? ...oh well)

Simultaneously hit by both the physical and spiritual attacks, the Spider-Woman cries out as she's blasted back against the desk! For a moment it looks like she's out...nothing human could have withstood that attack. She slumps against the desk, breathing hard, as the room dims and spins around her...

(Staggered and stunned.)

You do still have Hero Points BUT yes it does seem at times that Invisible Castle is all over the place…

I can't use another Hero Point. Those results came from the Surprise Round, and I already rerolled one of my Reflex saves in the Surprise Round.

I guess I could spend one to come unstunned in Round 1.

But that's getting mighty expensive...and I suspect my attack roll would be pretty laughable at this point. -4 now, I think...for wounds and Despair. And frankly, since my init sucks, most of the baddies get another round to whomp on her if they like. So I'll wait and see how she is after that before I make up my mind.

If I live, I might have to get autofire on my attack. Maybe another AP...I dunno.

...or regeneration. Or something. I figured with PL maxed defense and toughness, it wouldn't be such an issue...obviously I was sadly mistaken.

Well, one BIG thing to remember, as I said in my very first post here when I talked about the game... comic logic applies... in MANY stories the badguys beat up the heroes at first... and then the heroes come back, making revenge sweet as it were

You will get a couple more HP this encounter also, just as an FYI... I don't want to discurage people to much... it is going to be a rough fight

 

[Shayuri]

Oh, I know. It's just...blargh! Taken down in the darn surprise round. How humiliating.

 

[Redclaw]

That's the way those villains work. They know they couldn't beat the Avengers in a fair fight, so they have to catch us unawares.
Don't worry, Justice will be served, and they will pay for their lack of scruples.

Someone is playing Thor... hmm of the others I would be interested in just about any you might make... but Iron Man and Ant Man would be hella kewl, and I do really like Machine Man also!!!
