Army Test
Map: Custom
Units: Batwoman, Robin (Dick), Batgirl (Cassandra), Oracle, Speedy (Roy) (600) vs Nightwing, Starfire, Raven (600)

Spoiler Alert!

Batwoman really got her team roaring out of the gate. She and Robin managed to team up to take out Starfire on some lucky rolling (and with some help from Secret Attack Plan). She follows up on her next turn by OHKO-ing a Flashbang-ed Nightwing.

Choosing to test Flashbang against somebody like Nightwing actually wasn't deliberate as I was throwing armies together, but man do the various Acrobats of C3G not like Flashbang. I'm cool with that, though.

Unfortunately, her luck runs out against Raven, and Raven manages to put her down.

Once Batwoman goes down, Team 2 starts struggling. Raven managed to stick around for quite a while and, with the luck turning in her favor, managed to take out Robin and Batgirl (somewhat improbably, Defensive Premonition fails twice in a row), and Speedy doesn't last long afterward. Oracle manages to finish off the heavily-wounded Raven.

Unit Summary:

• Damage Done/Surgical Strike: 4 wounds to Starfire in 1 attack (1 of those from Surgical Strike), 4 wounds to Nightwing in 1 attack, 0 wounds to Raven in 2 attacks
• Utility Belt: chose Flashbang and Bat-Grapple.
• Damage Taken/Bulletproof Suit: 2 wounds from Raven in 1 adjacent attack, 0 wounds from Nightwing in 1 adjacent attack, 2 wounds from Soul Self

Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes): Oracle with 2 wounds

Army Test
Map: Custom
Units: Batwoman, Robin (Dick), Batgirl (Cassandra), Oracle, Speedy (Roy) (600) vs Captain America (C3G), Hawkeye (II), Grey Gargoyle (600)

Spoiler Alert!

Kind of a weird game here. Some great luck for Batwoman. She faces down a weird number of attacks without taking any damage. She herself doesn't actually have amazing attack output for most of the game (she doesn't even do any damage to Cap after he had his defense nerfed by Flashbang), but she eventually lucks out and manages to take out Cap. That costs the Avengers a couple OMs, and she gets up the momentum to take out Grey Gargoyle and Hawkeye as well.

Unit Summary:

• Damage Done/Surgical Strike: 4 wounds to Grey Gargoyle in 4 attacks (2 of those from Surgical Strike), 5 wounds to Captain America in 5 attacks (1 of those from Surgical Strike), 4 wounds to Hawkeye in 3 attacks (1 of those from Surgical Strike)
• Utility Belt: chose Flashbang and Bat-Grapple.
• Damage Taken/Bulletproof Suit: 2 wounds from Captain America in 1 non-adjacent attack (3 skulls rolled), 0 wounds from Captain America in 4 adjacent attacks, 0 wounds from Grey Gargoyle in 3 attacks

Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes): Batwoman with 2 wounds, Batgirl with 3 wounds, Speedy with 2 wounds, Oracle unwounded

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: Feels solid to me at 170. I could see her cost coming up a hair, but it's hard to say for sure because she had weird luck. Only a little familiar with the character, but this feels like a solid take. Definitely stealing that Bulletproof Suit power.

Really liking Flashbang; it's a definite go-to for Batwoman, but the fact that it's slightly less effective for everyone else should keep it balanced against other EQ Glyphs. It could play really well in a big JL game where she can team up with Martian Manhunter and nuke someone's defense before teaming up with a heavy-hitter (didn't really bother testing that, though, since at that point you're looking at a big enough match to dilute Batwoman's impact).
