The rogues lined up to bring the pain to Hal Jordan and his green lantern recruits. Dr. Alchemy and Captain boomerang brought the pain for a swift surgical strike to take down hal in the face of his recruits. unfortunately the aim of his boomerangs was untrue and Hal moved citizen V over to use his martial arts prowess on captain boomerang in one deft move he hit him fast hard, and moved him out into the water so his allies could get a better shot at him. Abra Kadabra moved in and used his magical powers to take some shots at Hal and his various friends, hurting the blackhawk, but hal was able to maneuver his way around the battle field and eliminate the rogues fast enought that only citizen V was lost

PaxZrake Vs. Kersimus

The titans fought valiantly against this terible new god and his minions, Aqualad showing the world his power by being a nemesis to the new god, while Nitghtwing proved shifty for the whole battle. However the power of Darksied was too much for the young heroes, and he won the day as his minions kept the heroes occupied until he could use his power against them.

Round 2

PaxZRake Vs. Entropy

The Green Lantern Corps has long wanted to remove the scourge to the universe that is Darksied, so this time Hal Jordan, the corps best, met him on the dawn of man battlefield with his recruits. Hal moved his troops into position and Darkseid countermoved, and Hal energy xploded the formation instantly reducing the number and effectiveness of darkseid's minions. But this left hal open to cunterattack, and darksied made it count, however with the strength of the power ring hal survived and moved his troops into position to counter attack. Attack after attack was missed by hal's troops and eventually darkseid stood in the face of the assault removing the troops one by one from the battlefield.

Kersimus Vs. Hero_Guy

This time the rogues sought to bring their unique brand of evil to the teen titans.

Round 3

PaxZRake Vs. Hero_Guy

Darksied to the rogues, evil vs. evil, and evil always wins

Entropy vs. Kersimus

Aqualad moved into his friendly river and waited for an opportunity to bring the pain from the depths, but Hal once again brouhgt citizen v into the battle, he attacked aqualad and maneuvered him out of the water. Nightwing then outsiders citizen V soe speedy could hit his face with a giant boxing glove arrow. Hal then moved in and started to pick off the teen titans, but nightwing remained hidden in the shadows stricking when appropriate. in the end it came down to a battle of the Dark Night's former sidekick vs. Lantern 2814, and in the end the power ring won this battle

This four way was fierce, as the combatants swiftly became engaged as the worlds around them shifted. right away black adam cautiosly moved through camelot preparing to make a powerful entrance onto the battlfield, while the rogues laid back in the shadows plotting their next move and the dinosaur rumbled to the forefront of the action. the freedom fighters moved up in preparation of meeting the threats freedom faced on this day head on.

Devil dinosaur pounced on black adam, as he, black hand and uncle sam focused their attention on the dire villain, but it was to no avail, he broke free of their clutches taking down the dinosaur in two swift shots along the way. making the mistake of leaving blackhand and uncle sam for later

meanwhile the rest of the freedom fighters moved into position taking shots at Black Hand, but he proved too wiley, letting his associates take the brunt of the attack all the while he was preparing battle plans from the shadows. Black hand moved into position for a damaging shot on black adam, then moving out of the way, while star sapphire started taking apart Uncle Sam, all the while Rat is getting taken apart by lead and tin, until phantom lady came to save the day

in the end the fury of black adam would leak all over the battlefield as star sapphire, trickster and black hand all fell under his vengeful hand, before he was finally taken down by the untouched freedom fighters who went on to end the battle decisively

3-18-2008 Royal rumble at Pandemonium

Tonight was a 300 point 50% floor game at pandemonium books and games. this evening participants were...

Skull_One_Leader
Herald Theme Team
R Uncle Sam 140 + Contingency Plan 12
R Harbinger 50
SR Silver Savage 96

Entropy
Gotham City theme team
C Batman 75 + Thwart 15
C Robin 79 + Flashbang 5 + Knockdown 5
U Nightwing 79 + Takedown 6
LE Alfred 34

Since it was just the 3 of us (Skull_one_leader was the judge) we decided to play a 4 way battle Royal the Qunitessence and the Wildcard batman ally, rendered the Gotham city players as mostly observers, while the spectre and the Royal Flush gang very quickly went after Uncle sam and the heralds. Sam got his shots in, but didn't really hit and the savage was hurt too much too soon. while the spectre took his vengeance upon the heralds, the gotham gang and the royal flush gang danced a very cautious dance triyng to find a posiion of strength.

After the heralds were eliminated, and Tim drake had joined his father, it became evident that the two gangs would have to work together, romping around the dawn of man looking for the sould of lois lane, the spectre was forced to drop Dr. Midnite by a separation field generator, which let batman and alfred under their own power and the forced suggestion of king and queen to finish him off. Meanwhile the spectre was busy gulting himself into three critical misses, allowing nightwing and Jack and ten an opportunity to knock him down. eventually the spectre moved off, intent on reoving lois lane's soul from the board, this allowed nightwing to heroically push and end the threat of the ancient ghost.

unfortunately the effort required to take out the spectre was too much for the gotham gang, and they were easy pickings for king queen jack and ten.

Hero_guy for the win, damn him!

V Raven 81

Tonight's Event was a giant four way map, on the site of the Attack of Starro, the ever so happy harbor. The monsters and the JSA started opposite of each other and stuck between the teen titans. The Titans from the past moved forward with abandon, Hawk dove and speedy immediately going for the monsters while Kid flash and wondergirl went right for the untransformed Billy Batson all the while robin waited in the shadows coordinating the team. This strategy showed the folly of youth, as Kid flash was unable to touch Captain marvel, who then pasted the hiding robin and slowly began picking off titans with his partner while fighting for positioning with the Hulk. while this was going on the more seasoned titans slowly started to pick away at those tricky tricky monsters, while biding their time to handle the rest of the board. the strategy worked as they were able to remove Basil from the board and red arrow took apart speedy from range. Meanwhile Shazam was opportunistic hitting the Hulk for 8, and letting Sandman finish him off. the remaining titans and a beaten down clayface worked hard to nail the JSA, but while there was some dancing around the harbor, and while sandman took a few knocks in the end the JSA won the fight with barely a scratch

Hero_guy for the win, and the fallback, Martin with the fellowship prize.

U Deathstroke 157 + Nanobots 10



Round 1

Entropy Vs. PaxZRake

In This climactic battle the titans fought Deathstroke and the HIVE while the Judas contract event dial was in play. The betrayal hurt both teams early on as batgirl, ever so thematically started taking it to her compatriots, meanwhile deathstroke unexpectedly started beating his HIVE trooper companions out of frustration. eventually the lack of a taxi hurt deathstroke more then batgirl's momentary relapse as the titans were able to pick off the hive troopers and stay away from deathstroke, eventually coming out with the win as the titans worked together.

Hero_guy Vs. Kersimus

The metal men vs. the outsiders, a battle of the fringes of the superhero community. In this battle Iron's reliability and strength turned out to be the pillar on which the mental men stood. In this battle of stealth and guile, vs strength and durability, backup plan vs. backup plan the Metal men rose to the occasion, showing that even batman and the outsiders can't stave off too much metal in their water.

Round 2

Hero Guy Vs. PaxZRake

This time the titans moved on from their natural nemesis to take on the metal men. It was a back and forth battle, with the titans focusing their energies on removing some of the more vulnerable metals, and the more rugged metal men removing their opponents as quickly as possible. in the end the titans won however, as time ran out on gold and iron as they tried to remove the pesky titans

Kersimus Vs. Entropy

A battle of the outsiders vs. Deathstroke, this fight took place almost exclusively in the shadows as Deathstroke and the HIVE slinked their way into position. Meanwhile Batman and Nightwing slowly moved the outsiders into position as they formulated a plan, Deatstroke moved his forces into position, and The outsiders struck first, but it was to no avail, while his Cannon fodder went down deathstroke methodically took out his opponents one at a time. But batman never fails against the same opponent twice...

Round 3

Kersimus Vs. PaxZRake

It was a battle that crossed time and space as the Robin led Teen titans fought batman's outsiders and his future self, Nightwing. This back and forth battle which came down to nightwing vs. the titans was a demonstration that sometimes the good old days really are better.

Hero_guy Vs. Entropy

Deathstrokes final obstacle to world domination was the Metal Men, right out of the gate the metal men brought the heat to the HIVE attacking whenever possible and forcing them to attack at times they didn't want to . But Deathstroke hit the nail right on the head at exactly the right time knocking out Iron in two quick powerful hits, and finishing Gold lead and tin off with a small cadre of HIVE.

PaxZrake walked away with the fallback win, and Kersimus with the fellowship

Crisis 300 constructed Friday!

Tonights tournament was 300 constructed at Magic Dragon comics in Arlington the attendees and their teams were

Entropy
Justice League international
Un Blue Beetle 65
C Batman 75
E Ice 50
V Fire 50
R Booster Gold 46

Hero_Guy
SR Spectre 234 + Protected 8
C Mercury 25 + Vault 3

C Supernova 122
C Wondergirl 60

Tyroman
C Aqualad 40
C Aqualad 40
C Aqualad 40
C Wondergirl 60
R Tempest 116

seeing as it was just the three of us, Entropy, Hero_guy and April and the judge Tyroman, we decided to play a 4 way tonight, much to the chagrin of the spectre since it turned him into a giant target. The game was played on the dawn of man map and what a struggle it was.

Tyroman's team with the aqualads and tempest creating water terrain was a terror, no one could draw line of sight to them and most of them were unoutwittable. Batman and the booster beetle combo made the JLI a force to be reckoned with with dual outwit and perplex, unfortunately only beetle seemed able to hit anyone as they were quickly faced with the wrath of the iron giant. The spectre opened with some cautious moves, maneuvering behind the giant rock at the dawn of man to avoid incessant pot shots, but this prevented him from destroying the Shield disruptor which came back to haunt him, when aqualad picked it up, moved into the bushes and allowed batman to outwit his superstrength bringing it within 4 squares of the spectre, tempest then incapped the spectre and allowed batman to nail him for 3 damage pushing him past his 19 and his damage reducers evening the field. April split her forces using wonder girl and supernova to go after spectres team, and dazzler and the iron giant to fend off the JLI and while dazzler went down hard the iron giant was too much of a challenge.

Tempest was mostly left alone due to his mystics TA no one wanted to handle the retributive damage, and in the end it cost us all, as hero_guys team went down hard except for the spectre taking only a wonder girl and booster gold with him. batman got hit hard by wonder girl, and without booster the JLI lost their outwit, allowing them to be slowly picked off by aqualads and the iron giant leaving only batman against the world.

In the end after failing several breakaway rolls, aqualad finally nailed the spectre with a light object and critical hit finishing him off, and tempest had too many clicks left for the remaining fighters to take out, batman went first, then the iron giant went down.

by victory points, tyroman won due to the spectre KO, but since he was the judge entropy eaked out the win to go home with the fall back card.

another awesome night of clicks!

Round 1

Hero_Guy Vs. April
The titans came into this round ready to take on mammoth and supernova in this match but Nightwing's valiant leaership proved costly as he went down hard while leading the charge, but he did enough on the way down to seal the victory for the titans.

Skull_one_Leader Vs. PaxZrake
In this match it was brains vs. Raw power, and this time brains gave in to brawn. Ion being immune to outwit, proved the undoing of robin, flash and psimon. Green arrow and kamandi went down, but the power of ion reigned supreme.

Entropy Vs. Thrumblefunk
Mordru the dark lord brought his wrath to the battlfield to face the collection of villains and heroes assembled to challenge him. This group spent the battle using every means at their disposal to incapacitate mordru so as not to incur his dark wrath. they fought valiantly to then end locking down mordru throughout the battle, but in the end mordru smite his foes.

Round 2

April Vs. PaxZrake
Once again the power of ion prevails as only kamandi falls to the might of mammoth supernova and wondergirl.

Thrumble Funk Vs. Skull_One _Leader

This time the match up was power vs. intelligence on a more even scale, and it was a back and forth fight, with the villains taking out the flash, but his sacrifice was not in vain as psimon and robin pulled out the victory over the forces of evil.

Entropy Vs. Hero_Guy

Mordru moved cautiously delicately planning his moves to take out the titans on the field of battle Kid flash wnet down early, and Speedy soon followed. It became a mad dash of positioning, and Mordru rising to great heights and towering over the battlefield until he finally succumbed to the combined assaults of the teen titans.

Round 3

Entropy Vs. Skull_One_Leader

Mordru fell hard and fast to the brilliant strategy of psimon, flash and robin.

Thrumblefunk Vs. April
This was a back and forth battle as both teams pounded each other until finally thrumble funk pulled out the victory

PAxZrake Vs. Hero_Guy
Once Again the power of ion was too much, the titans just couldn't get him off the first click, green arrow fell, but ion stood strong above the battlfield

Thus PaxZrake won the day and the giant stride feat and Entropy walked away with fellowship

The Truope had some lunch and then moved onto Magic Dragon Comics in Arlington for a second sealed match, once again no Chase figures pulled but some duplicate boosters, a duplicate case and a fair number of super rares. The Players and the teams assembled were:

U Batwoman 40
C Kid Flash 45

Entropy
Green Lantern 157
Mercury 25
Kid Flash 45
Batgirl 70

Round 1

Thrumblefunk Vs. Entropy

The ultimate debate, who is the better green lantern? Hal or Kyle? it is a debate that may have no merit, and may have no answer, but in this battle kyle was faced with plenty of bad luck, couldn't hit the side of a barn, and in this isntance Hal showed his supremecy as the greatest ring slinger there is, the brightest light in the universe.

Skull_One_Leader vs. Martin

Darkseid is unstoppable, even critical hits from the titans at the most unexpected times and darksied will not fall. Darkseid is unstoppable.

Round 2

Entropy Vs. Martin

Hal and his team maneuvered into position, they executed thier plan well and took shot after shot at darkseid. Darksied is unstoppable, and simply shrugged off this teams best efforts

Thrumblefunk Vs. Hero_Guy

The power of ion seems to always prevail. Even the best laid plans and manipulations of the cheif can not put down the power of ion.

Round 3

Hero_guy Vs. skull_One_Leader

This match came down to the unlikliest of outcomes, blue beetle shotting down booster gold in his guise of supernova, whoever thought that the battle for the universe would come down to these best friends going at each other.

ThrumbleFunk Vs. Martin

The power of ion, Vs. the Power of Darksied something must give. and it is not darksied, Darksied is untoppable and even the immense power of ion falls underneath his powerful heel.

Martin walks away with the prize, and Hero_Guy with the fellowship prize

that is it for the awesome Crisis Sealed Day one more sealed event then on to week 2!
