Bob McKenzie, The Master, Celine Dion, The Doctor, Last Centurion, Jack Harkness, William Shatner, Alex Trebek
The Eh Team is keeping up their lead, but this race is neck and neck! A tight match by teams with just amazing skills at setting up and executing devastating combinations. Can we see a repeat quadruple kill this round like we did at the start of Round 04?
Bob Respawns with a push (2)+(6)!
ReplyDeleteLet's see if he can pull off the incredible bloodshed seen at the start of the previous round!
plunge to H7 - combo shot Bob to J10, Celine to I6 (combo 2 with Trebek)
ReplyDeleteCombo 2 - Celine to F6 Trebek to I4 (10 damage for everyone)
Standard and Minor actions - magic missile at Jack(2 of them if one isn't enough) If he is dead, remaining missile(s) will target the Centurion.
Move action - Void soul assumption.

DeleteOnce again, Bob McKenzie wipes the board clean with a rain of magic missiles! Get psyched, a team has just entered DOUBLE DIGITS DEATHS!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Master appears out of the carnage to wreak havoc on this target-rich environment!

DeleteDELAY! GIBBED!!!
ReplyDeleteCeline Dion is up and at'em!
Banshee looks around disappointedly. "Where did all my fans go? I love them all so much!"
ReplyDeleteThe horrible creature sings to herself in an attempt to lift her spirits and then returns sulking to her dressing room.

Fluff:
ReplyDeleteThe Doctor presents his psychic paper to Mr. Shatner and says “Mr. Shatner, we need another Priceline Negotiator commercial. We need you to move over there and do another one of you karate chops… No not in the face. Mr. Trebek will you help Mr. Shatner out?”
Tech:
Plunger to E7
Drain: D8->D9->bumper. Bumper to B7
Standard: Charm of misplace wraith vs. Mr. Shatner (if I got the name wrong, then it’s whatever the name my encounter power happens to have). +6 vs. Will (15), Heroic effort if necessary. On a hit he’s dazed and slide 6 E2->E3->D4->D5->C6->B7 which is into the Doctor for a combo (1)

The Doctor, always a consummate manipulator of frictionless billiards, bounces around the area by forcing Shatner to charge into him, matador-style!

The Centurion is up, ready to follow in the Doctor's path and cause some bloodshed!
With a Push (6)+(6)!

DeleteShouldn't I be in D4 not B4? I'm blaming jet lag or a lack of caffeine for not thinking straight if I missed something. Also, the red zone, besides being for loading and unloading of passengers only, should be centered at G3. The blue zone, for shuttles and buses only, should be centered at H4.
DeleteDoh! M'bad!
DeleteThe Lone Centurion, Rory, tight-lipped as never before, arrives back on the scene. He plunges north, bounces off the habitrail wire right into the midst of the enemy.
ReplyDelete"This is English courage," he states in a horrible impression of Costner trying to do a horrible impression of an Englishman, then swings his axe in a vicious circle pushing back his enemies! A second swing! A third! Mayhem!

ReplyDeleteCuttin' it pretty close on time here ...
DeleteIan already left for work, so real comment coming up right soon. The gist is, Jack to Drop Target, MBA vs Trebek. I'll explain how after these short messages!
ReplyDeletePer copious emails:
DeleteJack sidles up to the mysteriously standing unconscious Shatner and taps him on the chest. "Hello? Huh, no intelligent life here."
He swaggers up to Rory and Alex Trebek. Stepping lightly back and forth between the two to gain speed, Jack rockets north, then fires his square-gun at Trebek!

Wait, the who team should have been at full hp, so shouldn't the Doctor be at 7, Centurion be at 17, and Jack at 19?
DeleteCorrect! No one is dying.
Delete<-- embarressed
Trebek will push to H6.
ReplyDelete"Let's move right into Quintuple Jeopardy. I don't think we've ever had this many rounds in one game."
ReplyDelete"For 10 bazillion points, I'll toss you a confidence booster. This battle in the War of 1812, considered the greatest American land victory of the war, actually happened after the peace treaty was signed."
"And question is: What is the Battle of New Orleans.

Good thing Kurt caught my prvious HP flub, he's going to need it with an unstoppable 20 damage rolling his way!
The Doctor is GIBBED!!!
The Centurion is dropped at -2 HP!
Jack is dropped is dropped at -1 HP!
SLAM TILT!!!
Slide everyone on the map up to 2 squares.
Slide Jack to I8.
ReplyDeleteSlide Centurion to G9.
Slide Trebek to I6.
Also, activate Shadow Warp (triggers on dropping someone to zero) to slide Centurion another 3, onto the plunger.
I'll assume the Centurion resists your slide as much as he can, slowing himself down by 2 squares due to 2 different effects.
