Unit Summary: Loose Cannon is hard to set up, but has a nice pay off if you can, especially if the dice favor you, as they did here (Fancy Shooting helped as well). Harvey was able to do some damage and the 5th Precinct Beat Cops helped keep him upright. His Criminal branding can be tough to keep up, but it’s a nice way to get some niche bonuses to pay off (like Criminal Intimidation). The dice definitely rolled in the favor of the Lawmen here, but it was probably also too many figures and too much range for the Fighters.
- Damage Done (Normal Attack): Inflicted (13) wounds on (Luke Cage (4), Iron Fist (4), Jessica Jones (2), Shang-Chi (3)).
- ENFORCING THE LAW: Hex was a good partner for this as either Hex could use his Fancy Shooting for auto skulls or he could make someone a Criminal for Harvey and Harvey could use Fancy Shooting and Loose Cannon.
- OUT OF SHAPE: He moved slowly enough with the pod of Beat Cops that this wasn’t really an issue.
- LOOSE CANNON: Used for (4) extra turns.
Who won? List figures remaining in the winning army (include life remaining for heroes): One of six Beat Cops, Harvey Bullock with 1/4 Life, Commissioner Gordon, Spoiler, Robin (Dick), and Rorschach all with Full Life win.
