Professor Flitwick

I really hope this isn't the full roster. Okay, it has the main heroes, and a few sidekicks, but several good-to-choices appear to be missing (e.g Green Arrow, Black Canary), not to mention the majority of the villains are Batman villains (with many (Killer Moth, Ra's, Mad Hatter, etc) looking just like they did in the first game). The Harry Potter games had at least three times as many playable characters, so I don't see what is stopping them here. It's certainly not the fear that people might not know who they are, because there were certainly some borderline unknown characters in the Lego Harry Potter games. I'm assuming the ten silhouetted characters are the ones mentioned in the preorder bonuses (e.g Gorilla Godd, Captain Cold, Zatana), but I worry that they might actually be the make-your-own-villain/hero slots. I believe the one between Clayface and Ra's is Hush, and that the ones before Batgril are Hawkwoman and Hawkgirl respectively. I believe the character in between Killer Croc and Scarecrow is Mr. Freeze.

But surely it would be handled the same, no matter if it were an eight player party, or a three player party. If somebody hasn't handed in their action, the host picks their actions for the next round. I fail to see how it has any baring on the amount of players.

"Does this look correct? I've followed your instructions as best as I could, but I may have gone wrong somewhere..."

I have no idea how long it's been like that, but I'm guessing too long.

It's like you people want poor Thothwick to have a nervous breakdown!

"The Witch - as much as this pains me say - is correct. Manipulating your people into genocide against Humans can only lead to the deaths of countless U'Kin. Prejudiced people exists in all corners of the world. Believe me, I know of where I speak. I have seen the subduction my kind, such as seeing them locked in cages like animals for the amusement of others. Orcs were once enslaved, and whilst currently not on equal footing, have managed to improve their lot in life. That's exactly what Mr. U'Stus is trying to do, and all your murder will do is further increase the entrenched racism that your kind faces. It's not too late. Holster your weapon, and your kind can be saved."

OoC: We better get CMP to another battle soon! "Seeing as I and Mr. Harkenshire have several gold pieces, I'll give 13 gold to Mr. Tarn, and 12 gold to witch." "Quick, let us return to Mr. U'stus and Ms. Nyx!"

Wow! Your Bane is fantastic! I really hope TLC makes more characters in a similar vein to Hulk. One suggestion for a future figure, why not try and make an Amygdala figure using the Hulk body? Your other figures are great. Krypto is ingenious, Supergirl looks really cute and Green Arrow looks cool. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with Harriet nor Gossip, but the designs on them are good too.

OoC: Cheers CMP, I've edited it in now.

"Mr. Felton, wouldn't it be best if you attacked? Only Mr. Tarn and Myself are attacking, which would allow one to get a free hit. Whilst it may not be fair to Mr. Harkenshire, it would be best if you were to attack. I'll attack the Cultist from the front row, with the Dragon Heart!" Battle Order Felton Atramor Tarn Thothwick

Seriously? Wow. It's like not reading the Harry Potter books because you don't want the movies to be spoilt. Anyway, concerning the Hobbit (See what I did there? ) sets, if we get another similar sized wave, I main hope that I have is that the Helms Deep-sized set is the forest of Mirkwood (Complete with Thranduil's throne room, Dungeon area, and barrel escaping action!), with the Uruh-hai Army-set being a Mirkwood Spider set, allowing compatibility between the two. Of course, it all depends where the Hobbit: Part 1 ends.

OoC: My fault, Zepher, I assumed the wind effect would damage the Bombsters, and the fire effect would just do nothing. I should've asked in the C&D thread. "I'll attack the Cultist from the back row, with the Dragon Heart!" Battle Order Felton Atramor Tarn Thothwick William

"I'll attack Bombster A from the back row, with the Dragon Heart!" Battle Order Felton Atramor Tarn Thothwick William

*See's news on the front page that there is a new Spidy set picture* Oh-boy-oh-boy-oh-boy! This is it! *The picture loads* This is it? I didn't really expect this. Looks too much like the Helicarrier, but with just less 'stuff'. I guess since the name of the set is 'Doc Ock's Ambush', I thought it would take place in a public place, you know, kind of like an ambush. Not really an ambush if it takes place in Doc Ock's hideout. It's like being ambushed by police in a police station. Hopefully when the cartoon comes out, this set'll answer some questions (e.g 'What use does Doc Ock have for a giant industrial fan?', or 'Why does Doc Ock have a go-kart?'). Anyway, thanks CM4S!

"Ouch! This time, I'll attack Bombster B from the back row, with the Dragon Heart!" Battle Order Felton Atramor Tarn Thothwick William

"Looking for Ms. Constance? Either she was wrong, and this is was supposed to be an assassination attempt, or we've found your insider, Mr. Felton. Regardless, I hope she doesn't mind me using her sword. I'll attack the Cultist, with the Dragon Heart, from the front row!" Battle Order Felton Atramor Tarn Thothwick William OoC: Standard procedure, if it's bad, correct me.

I haven't looked into Quest 29 or Quest 31 since they started, but it's really paining me not to look now!

"Very well. It appears the general consensus is to spilt up. Ms. Nyx, as you are our most capable fighter, and you do seem to like the food here. Would you be willing to remain here to ensure that Mr. U'Stus does not fall foul to any assassination attempts?"

"My apologies, Mr. U'Stus, I believed the red cross to be the location of your manor. I realise it was hurtful of me to suggest you do not stand arm-in-arm with your kinsmen. I can assure you, myself and my race are no stranger to Human prejudice. As for your attempts to get us to move, I'm afraid I must disagree, to a point. We were hired to protect both you and Ms. Constance. Perhaps, fellow heroes, it maybe best if we were to divide our forces?"

"Mr. Tarn, would you mind awfully if I kept possession of the Dragon Heart for now? Your Helbaerend has a higher weapon power than my Sabre, after all." Thothwick stood with his back to the fire, arms behind his back, watching the biscuit tray being served around. He checked the time of his pocket watch, and winced at the picture of Hoptet inside. "So... Mr. U'Stus, if I may ask, why aren't you segregated like the rest of your kind?"

"Greetings, Mr. U'Stus, what perfect timing you have. How long will the blacksmith take? Would it be possible to wait her till the sword is fixed, then escort you to your estate?"

"Are you certain you can trust all of your fellow Dragon Knights, Ms. Constance? Any one of them could be an Assassin in waiting. But a more pressing matter is that I must remind you that an U'Kin is just as worthy for protection as a human, Ms. Constance."

"With all due respect, Ms. Constance, we were hired to accompany you, and make sure you are safe till you reach the front lines. Whilst doing this task will help ensure your protection, what do you intend on doing whilst we're off with the Pongcanis? You're about to become weapon-less, and I'm sure those assassins will take the opportunity to ambush you whilst unarmed."

Upon seeing the loot exchange, Thothwick reaches into his pocket, and hands the Tonic and the Ether Core to Atramor. "We took these of the Chimera Guards. You'd make best use of these, Witch."

"Yes, I had another vision, telling me that two cultists - Claw and Mane, as Mr. Harkenshire stated - were about to slay a infant Dragon, in order to hasten the rising of the Chimera. We - Mr. Harkenshire and I - went off to face them, but alas they proved too strong."
