Round 3. Riddler's team gets initiative, so Befuddled Tactics is in effect.

Riddle me this: Batman picks the wrong Order Marker, so Riddler removes the order markers 1 and X from Alfred's card. Alfred breathes a sigh of relief. Riddler moves down the road towards Robin. Remember, Riddler can't be attacked this round while Poison Ivy is in play.

Alfred's turn is lost, so Riddler goes again. He climbs down towards Batman and attacks with height advantage. Two skulls not blocked by Stealth Defense against two shields. Riddler pouts.

Robin takes a turn and moves up the road. Since Robin didn't start on the road, he doesn't get the move bonus. Riddler can't be attacked, and Poison Ivy's Plant Camouflage protects her from range, so Robin's turn ends.

Riddler attacks Batman again. One skull not blocked against two shields. Riddler wishes he was Hulk.

Batman goes next. He grapples away from Riddler and up next to Robin. No viable targets for his Batarangadang, so end of Round 3.

Spoiler Alert!

Round 4. Riddler's team gets initiative. Batman misses Riddle Me This, so Alfred loses Order Marker 3. Riddler moves up between and below Batman and Robin, and attacks Robin, though Robin has height advantage. Three skulls against three shields, so Riddler just plain sucks eggs.

Batman goes next. He grapples over to Poison Ivy, making sure he stays away from the trees. Batman has height advantage. Batman decides to use the Batarangs to get three attacks instead of only one attack. Poison Ivy doesn't evade with Pheromone Control 16, so her Kissyface doesn't work. First Batarang: One skull against one shield. Second: two skulls against two shields. Third: two skulls against no shields for two wounds. Poison Ivy has 2 life left. Editor's note: I should have checked Pheromone Control 16 with each attack.

Riddler is next and climbs up to the road with height over Robin. Two skulls against one shield for one wound, with three remaining for Robin.

Robin goes next. He wants to grapple over next to Poison Ivy, but can't quite make it. However, he can reach her with normal movement, but will take an engagement strike from Riddler. Riddler rolls shield, so Robin escapes with no damage. Since Batman has an unrevealed Order Marker X on his card and both are adjacent to Poison Ivy, Robin attacks with Dynamic Duo Special Attack. Robin gets to roll 7 dice, but Poison Ivy first checks for Pheromone: 8. She takes the attack! Fives skulls against one shield kills Poison Ivy. They both still get a nasty rash.

Riddler goes next and decides to attack Batman with height bonus. Two skulls against no shields for two wounds, with two life left (I'll only report if Stealth Defense 13 blocks).

End of Round 4.
