vs.
Solovar, Gorilla Grodd, Gorilla-Man, Gorilla City Warriors x3 & Fire Ant Swarm x3 (925 points)

Spoiler Alert!

Round 1: Judge Dredd takes out 2 Gorilla City Warriors with his high ex special attack. They attempt a retaliation which he shakes off, and Parasite finished off another Gorilla.
Round 2: Judge Dredd tries to take out the second squad of Gorillas, but fails to do any damage. Inspired by Solovar, the Gorillas rush and attack Dredd. 4 skulls with no shields and 6 skulls with 1 shield leave Dredd dead before the end of round 2!
Round 3: The deadly Gorillas do 2 damage to Parasite. Feeling boxed with the Gorillas approaching, the Hired Guns attempt to destroy the wall section but only manage 2 wounds with all 8 attacks. Grodd gets close to Parasite and finishes him off. The Hired Guns manage to deal the wall 1 more damage. Grodd fails to do Black Mask any damage or mind control Hush. The Hired Guns manage 1 more wound on the wall. A Hired Gun tries to wound Grodd with Black Mask’s help, but gets killed by Black Mask for failing.
Round 4: Hush fails to wound Grodd. The Gorillas kill another Hired Gun. The last two Hired Guns go gangbusters on the Gorillas and take out the last 3. Grodd kills Black Mask outright in one attack, then uses mind control on Hush to chuck him off the tower. Hush evades any falling damage, but Grodd uses him to kill the third Hired Gun. Hush gets in Grodd’s face and gives him a wound, plus one more from Surgical Strike. Grodd returns the favour, giving Hush 2 wounds.
Round 5: The final Hired Gun fails to do any damage to Grodd, and Grodd kills Hush in return. Another multi-skull attack from Grodd on the last Hired Gun sweeps away all the ape army’s resistance.

Winners: Solovar, Gorilla-Man, Gorilla Grodd (2 wounds), 3 (of 3) Fire Ant Swarms

Army Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No? Yes- What should be the unit's point value? 220- Give a brief overview.Crime Doesn’t Pay
Map: Abandoned Missile Base
Units: Judge Dredd, Nick Fury, Iron Man Stealth, SHIELD Agents x2 & SHIELD Sniper x1 (980 points)
vs.
Lex Luthor (Battlesuit), Hush, Two-Face, Lexcorp Security x1 & Street Thugs x3 (985 points)

Spoiler Alert!

Round 1: Iron Man makes an attack on Lex, but his Kryptonite armour shrugs it off.
Round 2: Two-Face tries a couple of attacks on Iron Man, but he avoids them both with his stealth defence. Using his deadly high ex attack twice, Dredd takes out 4 street thugs (although one was sacrificed by Lex to save his own worthless hide).
Round 3: The Helicarrier team arrive! A Lexcorp Security man manages to give Dredd a wound, and Lex flies up to meet the Helicarrier team, in an attempt to take out the SHIELD Agents’ advantageous kill box position, but he repeatedly fails to kill any of them. Nick Fury co-ordinates Iron Man and the SHIELD Agents for the first of many repeat attacks. They take out a Lexcorp Security and give Lex a wound.
Round 4: The Street Thugs manage to give Dredd another wound, but Dredd returns the favour by killing three of them with his high ex again. Lex and his remaining Security man manage another wound each on Dredd, but Lex takes a leaving engagement attack from the SHIELD Agents. Lex gets caught by the agents’ kill box and gets wiped out. Hush takes a falling damage to get up close and personal with his vendeatta, Iron Man, but fails to do any damage. Iron Man kills him in return.
Round 5: The Street Thugs fail to do Dredd any damage. The Lexcorp Security manages to fend off an attack from Iron Man, and a Street Thug survives a kill box! Rolling all skulls, Lexcorp Secuity finishes off Dredd, but the poor Street Thug fails to survive a second kill box attack. Two-Face tries in vain again to wound Iron Man.
Round 6: Two-Face shrugs off a retaliation from Iron Man. The Street Thugs take out their first agent. Two-Face blocks another attack from Iron Man. The agents and thugs go tit-for-tat, with 2 more agents and 3 more thugs getting killed.
Round 7: Two-Face block two more attacks from Iron Man, but the agents kill the last thug. Two-Face tries to attack Iron Man again, but 8 defense dice with height and 1 shield blocking all damage, it’s not even worth bothering with. Iron Man manages a 6 skull attack on Two-Face with the height advantage and finishes him off.

Winners: Nick Fury, Iron Man, SHIELD Sniper, 3 (of 6) SHIELD Agents

Conclusion: Dredd got his butt kicked thoroughly by the apes, and managed to do some damage in the second game, but it was Nick Fury getting to use Iron Man and the SHIELD Agents every turn that made the difference. Dredd is great against tightly packed squads, but the other attacks didn’t get a look-in. He’s going to get stomped against most A or B level heroes because he has only 5 move, life and defense, can’t fly and has no bonding bonus. Maybe with future Judge bonding he’ll really shine. I’m still not sure he’s worth quite 240 – maybe 220.
