The Book of Supergirl

[Griffin]

A3n, I hope you don't mind, but I am in a serious need for playtesting and I plan on playtesting Supergirl tonight. Plus, I keep getting PMs from the Allies/Sidekicks for more playtests. I promise to be gentle with her.

Knock yourself out. I had started & completed 3x Vs Hulk but I wasn't sure how soon it would be until I was going to be able to get through it all, so I am happy for you to playtest her. Against the Hulk I felt she was fairly solid. Hulk won 2 out of 3, both on turn 3 of the 2nd round with 5 & 4 wounds on him, but the 3rd game Supergirl had the luck & rolled a 5 skull normal attack that Hulk whiffed on to finish him off in the 1st turn of round 2 with no wounds on her. The thing about this 3rd game was that Hulk only got the 2 attacks on her & both times he rolled 3 less for the Super Leap as Supergirl struggled to maintain height advantage she kept risking the leaving engagement but then was able to score 1 & 2 wounds with her Heat Vision. So so far I am completely happy with her. I didn't expect her to last too long against Hulk once he became enRaged so she performed exactly as I believed she would.

Cheers

Well I certainly look forward to running a ton of HH tests tonight.

_____________________________________________________________

- Squad / Does it pass? She seems like she was worth more like 200 points in this type of test, but that is to be expected when it comes to Squad Scape.
Map: Platforms 5 and 6
Units: Supergirl VS Minions of Utgar x3

Spoiler Alert!

Minions win with 4 out of 9 remaining.

_____________________________________________________________

- Army Test/ Does it pass? YES, at 320 points. Mystique, a mid-level hero, did just fine against Supergirl, and she didn't have a special attack, though her engagement strike was half of the damage on Supergirl.
Map: Platforms 5 and 6
Units: Supergirl and Hawkgirl (545 points) VS Darkseid and Mystique (545 points)

Spoiler Alert!

Hawkgirl flies up and Mystique copies her every move, including her looks.... Then Hawkgirl tries to avoid this strangely mutated Agent of disguise, but Mystique fires a shot and hits the bird woman mid air. Hawkgirl swoops down looking for her target, then Darkseid surpise attacks her but misses with his Omega Effect taking damage himself. Then Hawkgirl swoops Darkseid for 3 more wounds. Mystique uses the train system to run faster and tries to flank Supergirl, but Hawkgirl had already swooped away from Darkseid and was now coming back for a devastating hit putting him 1 away from death.... that old bird is a biatch! if she is not monitored. Then Darkseid punched her so hard she felt it in every past and future life! Hawkgirl now one away from death and Darkseid as well, she makes a difficult attempt to hit him again... but she is intimidated by this would-be god and only rolls 1 skull, however, in his arrogance and neglect, Darkseid was not prepared to be attacked by such a desperate creature, and his guard was down just long enough to whiff and take his final wound. Now mystique moves into the shadows hoping to find a new way to confuse her enemies, but the woman of steel hears the mutants rapid heart beat and sees her unique DNA through solid steel rafters supporting the Subway platform. Supergirl flies in and hits Mystique for a wound, but Mystique also gives Supergirl a wound with a quick flip kick as she engages her. Now Mystique leads the reckless warrior towards Hawkgirl and shoots at S-girl and hits for 2 wounds. Then Supergirl flies to the to of the building to use her Heat Vision but also misses. Now Mystique has her chance to sneak over and assassinate the wounded Hawkgirl, and that is just what she does. As Hawkgirl dies, Supergirl becomes recklessly enraged, and she flies through the subway and connects with Mystique but takes her 4th wound. However, the G force from Supergirl's powerful punch was enough to eliminate the Agent of deception once and for all.

Supergirl wins with 4 wounds.

_____________________________________________________________

- Army Test/ Does it pass? YES, absolutely. 320 is perfect. This was a very close nail biting game, that really came down to the wire. Even though the Vigilantes had a 20 point advantage, it wasn't a big difference, and Batman did win with only 2 life points left. Great game.
Map: Platforms 5 and 6
Units: Supergirl, Superman, and Doomsday (1110 points) VS Batman, Alfred, Huntress, Dare Devil, Punisher, Black Canary, and Green Arrow (1130 points)

Spoiler Alert!

D-day jumps forward as BC and GA advance together. D-day take a couple wounds from GA's skill shot, then D-day gets on top of him and kills him mercilessly. Black Canary gets her fists of fury rolling and takes D-day down to one away from death. Next round, Punisher unleashes a Rocket and kills D-day, but the monster's DNA pieces itself back together during that round as Huntress advances towards Supergirl and Superman. Supergirl tries to engage and use her Heat Vision to avoid Huntress's fighting skills, but she wasn't fast enough and she missed her chance as Huntress safely gets out of engagement and sets up in the shadows for a kill shot on Superman and manages to get 3 wounds on him. Superman flies straight overhead and passes the Huntress and lands on the top of the entrance to the subway. Huntress tries after him, and takes shots at Supergirl on the way. Supergirl took 2 wounds and got really p*ssed, and hit Huntress from on height with 7 skulls!!! Huntress died of course.... Then D-day healed a bit more. Supergirl flew faster than all get out and perched right over the vigilante camp, proudly letting them know that she was now the hunter, and they were her prey. Punisher shot a rocket at her, and she took a wound. D-day healed again. Batman engaged Supergirl, but couldn't hurt her. Then Supergirl flew faster than light straight down into the camp and engaged Alfred. BC went to the tallest building where she knew Superman was hanging out in, and blasted out all of the doors and windows with a super sonic screeeeeaaaaammmm!!!! Superman took a wound. Then D-day returned next to Supergirl and Alfred, and mercilessly slaughtered the poor man in front of Bru... Batman. That was a mistake. Punisher quickly fired off two Shotgun shells killing Supergirl and wounding D-day. Then D-day got on top of Punisher and just pounded his face for 4 wounds... but the unyielding vigilante kept on pushing and managed to stay alive. Punisher got out of there safely and hit D-day with his last pay load of explosives... then Superman flew in and killed Punisher for good. BC tried to get her Fists rolling again, but nothing she did could dent the Man of Steel. He flicked his wrist and she went down for the count. Now with these two Hulking brutes of Kryptonian muscle were peering down at the two last vigilantes, when Batman and Dare Devil suddenly knew exactly what to do. Batman used his grapple to swing over and take the deceased Punisher's place in the shadows next to Superman, and attacked to know avail. Superman swung back, and even though Evasive Strike didn't work, the shadows were enough to give the dark knight the edge he needed to block the super strong attack. Then all of a sudden, Dare Devil executed the plan by disengaging (unsuccessfully) and shot his billy club at D-day forcing Superman to take a leaving engagement attack (for 1 wound) and defending against Dare Devil's attack of 4 skulls, which Superman did block. Now D-day goes after Dare Devil but swings and misses as the Crimson Crusader easily 'sees' the attack and avoids it with the grace of dove. Then Batman throws a couple Batarangs and does nothing with them. Superman flies back into the mix and hits Dare Devil killing him flat out. Now D-day tries to hit batman, but whiffs completely. Then Batman swings away and hits Superman with a Batarang but misses, but D-day however, even rolling 9 defense, whiffed and took his two last wounds from the deadly Batman! Superman then hits Batman for two solid wounds. Then Batman hits Superman with another Batarang and connects for one wound, putting Superman 1 away from death. Then Superman swings with the power of a locamotive, but Batman avoids the attack with his skills in the art of Ninjutsu and Karate, and gives Superman his final wound, leaving Batman as the soul survivor of the battle between the Kryptonians and the Vigilantes.

Batman wins with 2 wounds.

I'm loving everything that's on the first post! Great work guys.
320 is sounding good thus far from the initial playtest, but there's more to come.
For her Kryptonian Defense power, the wording sounds a tad off ... how about:

KRYPTONIAN DEFENSE
When rolling defense against a normal attack from a figure that is not a Kryptonian if at least one shield is rolled, all blanks rolled count as extra shields.

Works for me, but I think it needs a comma right?

[IAmBatman]

I was waffling back and forth on that one. If the comma sounds right to you as well, though, I'm in favor.

First post updated. Welcome back bats.

But Bats a vote was passed while you were away & your posts need to be changed to comply with that vote.

[IAmBatman]

I missed that vote ... link?

So since he isn't voting against it I propose that IAmBatman must start all his posts with "Because I have a little wiener..."

[IAmBatman]

You guys suck.
