If those PL5s were heroic characters, then the hero wouldn't be able to:- Use Takedown attack more than once per round- Take 10 on an attack- Automatically knock out anyone he hit, since the opponents would have to be whittled down, just like the heroI still think that the hero in question would take down 12 PL5 opponents, but it'd be a much closer fight, and by no means guaranteed.(And yes, when the opponents use saves beyond Toughness for their attacks, the fight gets a lot more dangerous. Give three of those 12 PL5s a Nausea-inducing weapon (Fortitude), another three a Stun-blast (Will), another three concussion grenades (Area, Reflex), and leave the last three with assault rifles but give them Autofire (adds damage based on margin of success on the hit), and our hero has even odds at best, even if all those attacks are limited to DC 15 on the save (or DC20 for the Toughness save).)</blockquote>
