David: “Bob, when I drive down the freeway, do you know what I like to do?”
Bob: “After seeing you attempt that cascade crossing, I’d guess you do a lot of texting.”
David: “Nah, that’s dangerous.”
Pam (off camera): “Growl!!!”
David: “Hee. No, I like to drive until someone lets me in front of them in their lane.”
Bob: “I hope you give them a Thank You wave.”
David: “No, I give them the finger, stick my head out the window, and yell, ‘Hey, stupid! You’ll never get where you’re going if you keep letting people in front of you!’”
Bob: “I’ll regret asking this, but how do they usually respond?”
David: “Let’s just say the Highway Patrol was not amused.”
Bob: “Serves you right. Let’s check out our next group of teams.”
Team Zatanna vs. Team Magneto (I)
Spoiler Alert!
Round 1
David: “Bob, Shocker is going to be deadly with these vehicles, and Magneto is going to be able to toss figures onto the roadway. This is going to be wild!”
Mike: “Shocker remains in the passenger seat as his car pulls to the side of the 18-Wheeler. Magneto climbs onto the roof of his car.”
Bob: “Magneto removes his Magnetic Shield and flies to the roof of the 18-Wheeler. He attempts to toss Shocker out of his car and onto the road. His first attempt fails, but his second attempt succeeds. Shocker gets tossed onto the freeway, but takes no throwing damage. When a figure is knocked onto the freeway, it’s moved from the battlefield. Any friendly vehicle is removed from the battlefield to pick up the figure.”
David: “And Shocker is thumbing a ride, so he loses his chance at damaging the 18-Wheeler.”
Mike: “Shocker returns to the freeway, and moves to the back seat where he’ll be out of Magneto’s range.”
Bob: “Not so fast, Mike. Magneto can fly forward. Magneto flies into the front seat and attempts to toss out Shocker. He flips him out of the car, but once again fails to damage him. And Magneto is in the car controlled by the other team, so that team decides to pull Magneto’s car off the battlefield to pick up Shocker! Shocker climbs back into the back seat and grins at Magneto. Since they are off the battlefield, Shocker can’t attack.”
Mike: “Zatanna takes to the hood of her car.”
Bob: “Ventriloquist is too far forward to do anything.”
David: “Zatanna flies into the back seat next to Shocker and strikes at Magneto in the front seat, but Magneto blocks. She fails her Epiwdnim roll on Magneto.”
Round 2
David: “Zatanna wounds Magneto (3 left) and rolls a 20. Can you say, ‘Epewdnim?’ No, neither can I, so let’s say, ‘Mindwipe!!!’ Magneto loses all his special abilities, and he loses all his Order Markers!”
Bob: “That is pretty cool, David.”
David: “I agree.”
Mike: “Ventriloquist’s car tries to pull back, but two of the opponent’s cars have pinned him in. Making matters worse, his car gets slammed for 1 wound (3 left).”
David: “Shocker strikes Magneto and deals no damage. He opts not to Knockback Magneto with his Vibroshock Knockback in order to strike a second time. The second attack deals a wound (2 left). Shocker decides to keep Magneto in the car.”
Mike: “Cars roar down the freeway.”
David: “Zatanna strikes Magneto, but Magneto blocks.”
Bob: “Ventriloquist’s car has pulled closer, but is still out of Scarface’s Tommy Gun range.”
Round 3
Mike: “Shocker’s car spins out of control, but remains on the battlefield.”
Bob: “Magneto gets the advantage, and strikes back at Shocker. Since he’s attacking behind him, he subtracts an attack die. Three skulls blocked by three shields!”
David: “This just isn’t Magneto’s day. Shocker strikes back. The first attack is also three skulls versus three shields! The second attack delivers the fatal KO! In a sick act of revenge, Shocker uses his Vibroshock Knockback to fling Magneto’s body onto the freeway. Spu-LAT!”
Mike: “Heavy traffic!”
Bob: “Magneto loses a turn.”
David: “Shocker fires his Shockwave at the purple car for 3 wounds (1 left).”
Mike: “Both Ventiloquist’s and Shocker’s cars spin out of control, and Shocker’s car is removed from the battlefield! Since Shocker and Zatanna are out of action at the moment, we’ll have to proceed to the next round!”
Round 4
Mike: “Shocker’s car once again spins out of control, but remains on the battlefield.”
Bob: “Ventriloquist is too far away, and Scarface yells at the driver.”
David: “Zatanna flies to the roof of the blue car.”
Mike: “The blue car with Zatanna on the roof pulls closer to Ventriloquist. The damaged purple car pulls in front of the blue car and breaks hard, but no collision. Ventriloquist’s car pulls aside the blue car.”
Bob: “Scarface fires his Tommy Gun up at Zatanna. No damage, and Ventriloquist takes a wound from ‘You Dummy’ (3 left).”
David: “Zatanna holds onto the roof and fires down at Ventriloquist. He takes a wound (2 left).”
Mike: “The blue car with Zatanna spins out of control, but the car is blocked in. Zatanna is thrown off the roof and takes a wound as she hits the pavement (3 left). The silver car pulls off to pick her up and is able to roar back into traffic.”
Bob: “Scarface fires his Tommy Gun at Zatanna. Ventriloquist takes another You Dummy wound (1 left).”
David: “Shocker fires a Shockwave at the purple car and destroys it. The silver, grey, and tan cars take a wound (3 left apiece).”
Round 5
Mike: “The silver car with Zatanna spins out of control and slams into Ventriloquist’s car. Her car takes a wound (2 left).”
David: “Zatanna flies to the roof of the silver car and fires down on Ventriloquist. No damage.”
Bob: “Scarface fires back. It’s make or break time! Two of the three attacks hit, and Zatanna is down to her last life (1 left)!”
David: “Zatanna flies over to Ventriloquist’s car and fires down at him. Ventriloquist is taken down. Bob, we have one more battle on this freeway, then we’ll switch the next four battles to a new location.”
Bob: “I’m looking forward to it, David!”
