I saw this done at another forum, and it works quite well, so I wanted to see if anyone wants to try it here. Sentinels of the Multiverse is a superhero based card game that is fun and simple enough to play. Because of the fact that it's coop and the way it works, it's easy enough for me to handle all the decks and allow you all to give the game a spin. You don't need to own the game or have played it at all before.
So is anyone interested? I need between 3-5 players.
I like this game, but wouldn't it be hard to play by post?
Nope, it's done all the time. I'll run all the decks and just post a card list. For those who don't have the game, that will include card text and all rule information.
This sounds like good fun, but I have a habit of not being around for weeks at a time. Will enjoy watching the results, though!
I will play.
Yeah. but one person in a month is not enough. If other people wish to volunteer, though we can still do this.
I will emphasize that you don't need to have the game or even know how to play it.
I'm willing to try and play the game if this pushes through. :)
If necessary, I can play a hero myself, which would give us 3, the bare minimum. I'll leave this open for up to three more for a little while though.
I'd be interested but I'm a bit like Reep, only around about once a week...so I'm probably out.
I would be interested in a once a week game, if that would work. I mean, why not?
It would take a long time to play, but I'd be willing to do it if all are agreed. I'd still prefer to get a couple more people if possible.
So far now the interested parties are: Bearded, Deaths Jester, Outcast. Not sure whether Xenolith counts are interested or not. That leaves 2 slots open, 1 if Xenolith is in.
Don't wait on me. I don't remember to check in very often. :(
Heard of this game when I started trying to design my own CCG.
Curious about it, so I'll give it a shot.
Alright, lets go to claiming heroes. I'll use just ones from the base game for now and leave out the more complex ones, but if you're familiar with the game, feel free to pick one I haven't put up here. I own all of them. Feel free to speak up even if you haven't declared your intention to play. Now's your chance.

A gentile soul gifted with super strength, ancient warrior traditions, and immortality. He's like the Hulk if the Hulk looked more like a normal person, was highly educated, and was an elementary school teacher for his day job. Okay, he's nothing like Hulk, but he does like to smash.

From a long line of Legacies starting with the Revolutionary War, each generation of Persons have developed a new power and passing it and all previous ones on to the next. The current Legacy possesses flight, super strength, durability, and danger sense. His daughter has laser vision.

Alright! Nice set of heroes/characters. :D
:rolleyes: Let's see...i'll claim Haka. :) Grrrr....Smash! Smash! and Smash!
I'll take Tachyon
Ra Ra Ra. SSSS. Boom. Bah.
So Ra, Haka, and Tachyon are now taken. That leaves the following up for grabs. I can only take two more, but if we end up with less than five players, I'll jump in and take a more complicated hero that I didn't list here. It's a coop game, so that would be fine if I did.

Guess I'll have to go with Wraith....course I'll need you to provide cards for my side Cat, but you probably already knew that.
Yup, I have a convenient google doc spoiling all the cards, so I can copy paste whatever gets drawn. Easy enough. Also it's a coop game and there no rule against showing your hand to other players, so unless someone objects I'll just post everyone's cards using spoiler tags.
Got room for one more. I'll give it another day, then get this started likely tomorrow.
Oh ok. This sounds like it'll be lots of silly fun. I'll be glad to take Legacy!
A bus full of kindergarteners on their way home from school has gone missing from Rook City. After a full day of no news, message arrive by email at the Freedom Tower, challenging the Freedom Five to rescue the children from the wilds of Insula Primalis before they become dinosaur chow. Legacy, leader of the Freedom five, leaves at once with other two available member, scientist speedster Tachyon and Rook City's famous masked detective, The Wraith. Haka, substitute kindergarten teacher and friend of children everywhere insists of coming along to give the villain a good pounding and at Legacies request, the god of the Sun, Ra himself, joins them.
When they arrive at the coordinates indicated they find--nothing. Nothing that is, that they can see. Abuscade, expert hunter, has finally gotten the chance he has been looking for, the chance to hunt the ultimate prey--heroes. Among them, the greatest prize of all, the immortal warrior Haka!
Summary, start of game.
Notes: Villain cards have two sides with different rules. What they are and what causes them to flip over vary from villain to villain. In Ambuscade's case, he attacks the hero target with the most hp on this side and on the other side is invulnerable and attacks the lowest instead. His cloaking device being in play is what causes him to flip sides.
Ambuscade and Haka are nemeses, meaning they do an extra point of damage whenever they attack each other.
To setup the game, we put the top 4 devices into play. They are:
Automated Turret, 8hp: At the end of the Villain turn, this card deals the Hero Target with the Highest HP 2 Projectile Damage.
Personal Cloaking Device, 9hp: When this card enters play, flip Ambuscade's Villain Character cards.
Sonic Mine, 1hp: "When this card is destroyed, this card deals each Hero Target 2 Sonic Damage.
Targets dealt Damage this way cannot deal Damage until the start of the next Villain turn."
A second Sonic Mine.
Ambuscade immediatelly flips and will now attack the lowest and is invulnerable to damage until the cloaking device is destroyed.

Ambuscade deals any one hero 2 hp damage. I'll need a volunteer for this one. I would recommend either Haka or Legacy as both can tank pretty well.
One we sort out who take the damage from the hand cannon, we'll move on.
I Haka will volunteer to take that damage, since he's my nemesis and all. :)
"This is nothing i tell you!" "Grrrrr"
Since he's your nemesis, he deals an additional point of damage, for a total of 3. Haka is now at 29 hp.

Since it does not use the word "may" the damage is non optional and hits everything that isn't a hero target.
Tachyon tried to deal 1 damage to Ambuscade, but he is immune to damage.
Tachyon deals 1 damage to Automated Turret. Automated Turret cannot deal damage. Automated Turret is now at 7 hp.
Tachyon deals 1 damage to the first Sonic Mine. Sonic Mine cannot deal damage. Sonic Mine is destroyed. Sonic Mine attempts to deal damage to all hero targets but cannot.
Same things happens to the other Sonic Mine.
Tachyon deals 1 damage to the Cloaking Device. It is now at 6 hp. It cannot deal damage.

It means that all heroes are now doing fire damage. Since all fire damage is increase by one, it's a damage boost for the entire team.
Ra deals 3 points of damage to the Cloaking Device. It is now at 3 hp.

When this card is destroyed, return cards beneath this card to the players' hands.
Since this card does not act until the beginning of the Environment turn, nothing further happens. And that is the end of Round 1. Round 2 start of round summary and Villain turn coming up.
"I am the greatest hunter who ever lived. You will never survive, heroes" Ambuscade gloats, before touching a button on his wrist and turning dissappearing right before them. And invisible charge of energy burns wraith and gunfire from an automated turret hidden in the jungle and a gun fired from an invisible hand both hit Haka. Haka grunts, barely seeming to notice, before beginning to chant an ancient haka from his people. His wounds immediately begin to close up.
His gunfire briefly giving him away, Tachyon speeds into action, dinging his stealth field long enough to briefly turn him visible. Seizing the moment, Haka throws a rock at him, while Ra summons a stream of fire. The stealth field is flickering now, the device on Ambuscade's wrist beginning to smoke.
In the meantime, Tachyon has also knocked over the turret, found two sonic mines hidden in the brushes and safely deposited them half a mile away before they explode, and written some notes on sonic technology before rejoining the others on the battlefield. This takes about half a second.
As she returns Ra's eyes glow. The hands, feet, and weapons of all the heroes catch fire. Haka grins. Tachyon writes a note describing the experience. Wraith does not react at all, busy configuring some new equipment, now on fire, for the battle, and Legacy takes charge, regrouping the heroes for the next round.

Amuscade, struggling to keep his stealth field up, throws a charged bullet casing at where he thinks Wraith is, but she's blended into the shadows and only receives the edge of the blast.
His position momentarily revealed, Haka and Tachyon, following Legacies instructions, charge at Ambuscade, pounding his his failing shield. As Tacyon blazes away into the distance, turning around for the next base, Ra, throws a blazing fireball that engulfs Ambuscade and everything around him. The turrets pops, as acrid smells filling the air, and stops firing. The stealth shield fails and Ambuscade drops his now hot gun as he runs into the jungle to escape the inferno. Wraith, meanwhile, shoots a grappling hook at the dinosaur flying overhead, throwing a handful of something into his face then dropping to the ground and vanishing into the jungle. The pterodactle shrieks in annoyance and flies away. Meanwhile the pursuit of Ambuscade is halted when the team come to a blazing river of lava.

I've lost track of the targets. So I will staff Ambuscade.
Okay, let me break this down for you.
Ambuscade is the only target left.
Summon staff only puts the Staff in your hand, it doesn't play it.
You get an additional card draw, which I gave you. You get an additional card play, which you can use to play your shiny new staff. I assume this is what you want to do, but don't wish to assume.
With the staff in play, you would now get +3 damage without having to use its power. Using its power would do 1 more point of damage, but would destroy the staff. This can be a valid strategy.
So do you wish to play the staff now and if you do, do you wish to use your base power or your staff power to attack Ambuscade?
Ok, I will use my base power, keeping the staff in play for now. Thank you.

Those of you who have equipment cards out (Ra, Wraith) my destroy one to prevent the damage. If you don't or don't have any equipment out, you receive 6 fire damage again. Haka, Tachyon, and Legacy don't have any, so they take 6 damage each. I'll need to know if Ra and Wraith wish to do so.
I will divert the lava with my staff.
Have to go to Greensboro for a couple of days. I might not have internet, dunno yet.
So Ra will not be taking damage. Still need word from Wraith, then we can proceed.
I'll dump smoke bombs to avoid the damage.
Edit: Are we preceding or is there a problem? Just wondering.....
I actually posted an end of round report, but several of my posts have gotten eaten by the forums recently, and I never noticed that it didn't make it online. Also I dismantled my decks to take them to play with actual live people and haven't pulled them out of the box yet. Anyhow, now I'm back and ready to go.
So, Haka, Tachyon, and Wraith take 6 damage each. Legacy and Haka have 14 damage, while Tacyon has 16.
This concludes Round 3. Again. Please don't eat this post this time, forum.
Tachyon quickly scouts a way around the lava, although the heat scorches the heroes. Having crossed one perilous lava flow they immediately run into another. Sensing an opportunity, Ambuscade leaps out to attack. This does not turn out to be his best move. Ra raises his hand, and form out of the sky, the Staff of Ra flies into it. He and the other heroes they strike in perfect unison, following Legacy's orders and Ambuscade is quickly forced to retreat again.

I was really counting on someone like Tachyon to destroy the lava environment thus avoiding damage. Didn't thought it could play another one during it's turn and inflict damage that quickly. Anyway...
"It's no use Tachyon, you may be fast but these lava pools are too many even for you."
guess i'll have to bring out the heavy artillery.
"Mjolnir! ....ah i mean...Taiaha! come to my aid!" ( Haka plays Taiaha, hoping to get to do some immediate double damage to Ambuscade besides using the base power Crush.) If my calculation is correct Taiaha will do 3 melee damage plus 2 fire damage and plus 1 nemesis damage. Then Crush will do 2 melee damage plus 2 fire and hoping for another plus 1 nemesis. :rolleyes:
"Captain......Caaaaaaaaaave Maaaaaaan!" Then i'll draw a card.

Afraid it doesn't work that way. Taiaha will deal 3 base damage to up to 2 different targets. Also you can only use one power during your use a power phase, which means you can either use Crush or Taiaha. Taiaha will deal 1 more damage than Crush, so playing it is still a good move.

Technically, it's 6 Fire damage, since Imbued Fire turns all damage done into fire, but you're correct in your math, 3 from base, 1 from Imbued, 1 from Galvanized, and 1 from Nemesis.
Anyhow, Haka does 6 points of damage to Ambuscade, leaving him at 17 hp. Sorry again about not updating his hp correctly.

If I use Hypersonic Assault, would it prevent the River from doing damage to everyone for a turn?
(want to check I'm reading it right)
Or maybe my teammates would consider discarding 3 cards to kill the River?
The River of lava isn't a target and can't be damaged, so Hypersonic Assault won't do anything do it. On the other hand, you are discarding the cards from the top of the your deck, not your hand, so it doesn't really cost anything to do so. That's assuming the game even lasts that long, which according to my math it shouldn't, not unless 2 or three people miss out on damage they could do.
Ok, just keeping it simple. nimble strike to hit Ambuscade for 1

Just by being in play, Flesh of the Sun God makes you immune to fire damage. If you use its power, you extend the immunity to all the other heroes as well.
Unless you decide to change your mind, you bring Ambuscade down to 9 hp. About 5 points of damage each from the other two heroes, and the heroes win.

So, destroy an Ongoing that you have in play and take 2 damage, or don't and take 4. Tachyon and Wraith have no Ongoing cards in play, so they take the 4 damage. Tachyon is now at 12hp. Wraith's two turns of Stealth reduce the 4 damage to 0, so no actual damage is taken.
Haka, Ra, and Legacy need to decide whether or not to discard an Ongoing.
I'll take the 4 damage.

Just waiting on Haka, then we can wrap this up.
*Haka wakes up from his deep meditation.*
"Huh? What? It's not yet over?" :P
Haha. Don't be too hard on DJ, Reepicheep. It's only right for my arch nemesis to fall by my hands. Thanks DJ! ;)
I'll discard my Ongoing. I'm not going to need it anyway since Ambuscade is almost finished.
I'll wait when it's officially my turn to finish off Ambuscade then. Taiaha and I can't wait. :)
Haka takes 2 damage, Ra and Legacy take 4. That puts Haka at 12, Ra at 17, and Legacy at 10.
This concludes Round 4. Round 5 will be starting shortly.
After shrugging off Ambuscades later attack, the team find that he has somehow crossed the rive. Wraith pulls out another grappling hook and soon has a rope strung across both side and slides across. Tachyon runs across the rope and Legacy flies besides it. Haka looks at it sceptically but is talked into trying it, using the Taiaha, as pole like weapon that he had slung across his back, so slide across. Ra, meanwhile, ignores the rope and just wades through the lava. Unfortunately, what looks like grass turns out to be some kind of primordial plants which come to life and sting and scratch at the heroes. As they struggle out of the field, Ambuscade strikes. Sadly for him, he tries to sneak past Legacy, getting a back fist punch to the face for his trouble. A combined assault from the other heroes chases him back into the jungle.
It is now Round 5
Effects in play:
All Heroes are doing fire damage
All Hero damage is +2
Legacy's damage is +3 (although his power bonus wears off before he can attack, so it's effectively +2)

He now shoots Ra for 3 more damage, leaving him at 11.
And that is it. It is now Haka's turn.

Hmmm... It looks like Ambuscade was able to recover 7 Hp. I thought he was gonna be easy pickings after that last attack from Legacy.
Let's see. If i play Haka of Battle, and then discard at least 4 or 5* cards, would it's bonus damage be applied to my attack this round? I think that would be enough to knock his 10 Hp out right? Base crush with Taiaha (3), bonus hero damage (2)*, and nemesis (1) would give him a 6 point total damage + 4 or 5* from Haka of Battle.
*And i thought there can be only 1 ongoing card in play, so i'm not sure if we can still enjoy Ra's bonus fire damage.
But if it's gonna be applied in the next round that will make Haka mad :angry: and " Mr. Mcgee, you wouldn't like me when i'm angry." , then i will have to risk hurting some friends with Rampage (sorry friends ^_^, this would be my last resort though) , just to be able to deal Ambuscade 5 points more of damage and finish him once and for all.
I actually forgot to update his sheet again. He is at 3 hp.
But your calculations are almost correct. You'd do a total of 12 damage and it would indeed apply right away, so you're good either way.
If you're wondering how I got to that--3 from Taiaha, +1 Galvanize +1 Imbued Fire, +1 Nenemsis. You have 5 cards in your hand, plus Haka of Battle let you draw 2, so you can discard up to 6. Total damage 12.
I see. Ok. It seems a waste to use Haka of Battle then, if he is that weak already. :)
I'll just play Enduring Intercession, (not that it matters i guess). Then use crush with Taiaha to give 'ol Ambuscade a sweet tap on the head and end his suffering. Then draw a card? That is if we will still be using the same hand for our next adventure?
Then agree to Legacy's great finishing one liner earlier......"Yeah, just what Legacy said." <tap> :D
Ambuscade leads the heroes right into a trap. Wraith steps on a coin, primed to explode form lots of excessive energy, which blows up, knocking her off her feet. Ambuscade appears running like a madman, shooting right and left. The heroes of taken by surprise, and the villain begins to laugh from glee as their careful formation breaks apart.
Then he runs smack into Haka. There is a brief pause as the towered Maori looks down at the much smaller Frenchman. Haka reaches down and knocks Ambuscade out with a single blow from his meaty fist.
A few hours later, the team is back in Rook City. While Legacy, Tachyon, and Ra lead Ambuscade to the nearest superhuman prison, Wraith and Haka rush to the location he gave them. There, burried outside the city, they find the schoolbus. The children are frightened, but otherwise fine, and Haka lifts the bus out easily.
Heroes Win!
The next game would be a start over. Give me a couple of days and I'll start one up. I'll offer a small selection of Villain and Environments this time, as well as double the number of available heroes.
Good job everyone.
Woohoo! I totally forgot we were looking for a school bus!
Looking forward to round 2.
I like totally forgot to put in an official plug for the game, which you can purchase at the official website (http://sentinelsofthemultiverse.com/) at Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Sentinels-Multiverse-Enhanced-Card-Edition/dp/B0095ZFA5Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1404001207&sr=8-1&keywords=sentinels+of+the+multiverse) or at your friendly local game shop.

Woohoo!
